Peace for the Soul

A common space for harmonic peacemakers

Freedom...
The privilage of freedom is only given to the few
but for the many freedom exists only in their minds view
peace and freedom can only conquer
when we stop the need for want, greed and squander
my voice is one - and but a whisper
but spoken out may gain a listener
when multiplied a voice gets stronger
then soon an army- the few can't hold no longer
remember freedom is a privalige and free for all
when the few realise this there will be no need for WAR!
just one last thing before i go
the few only exists because we say so
and for those of you who choose not to listen
thats your right and choice
and not my decision

What follows is not a fable but a true story...

“In 1952 on the Japanese island of Koshima scientists were providing monkeys with sweet potatoes dropped in the sand. The monkeys liked the taste of the raw sweet potatoes, but they found the dirt unpleasant. After a while a monkey solved the problem by washing the potatoes before the eyes of the scientists. The experiment continued for years. Then something startling took place. In the autumn of 1958, a certain number of Koshima monkeys were washing sweet potatoes. The exact number is not known. Let us suppose that when the sun rose one morning, there were 99 monkeys on Koshima island who had learned to wash their sweet potatoes. Let’s further suppose that later that morning, the hundredth monkey learned to wash potatoes. THEN IT HAPPENED! By that evening almost everyone in the tribe was washing sweet potatoes before eating them. The added energy of this hundredth monkey created a breakthrough! The scientists then observed that the habit of washing sweet potatoes then jumped over the water. Monkeys on other islands began washing their sweet potatoes! Thus, when a certain critical number achieves an awareness, this new awareness may be communicated from mind to mind. There is a point at which if only one more person tunes in to a new awareness, a field is strengthened so this awareness is picked up by almost everyone!”

"Real freedom means that man is created in the image of perfection and let alone and allowed to make the discovery for himself. Freedom of will means the ability to do, say and think as one wishes; to express life as one personally desires. "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth will set you free." The understanding of Truth--Infinite Principle--is the Emancipator. We are bound by our freedom; our free will binds us. The Universe being deductive only, can not refuse us anything. The very force that makes us sick can heal us. As man realizes his ONENESS with Creative Mind, he is released from the bondage of false thinking. He sees, too, that freedom means liberty but not license."

I whole heartedly agree with that statement....John Aaron ....which is why!! world leaders persist in using the divide and conquer system ....when people wake up and realise this ...the world will get their cooperative effort
love peace and respect for your input!!..

"The structure of world peace cannot be the work of one man or one party or one nation...it must be a peace which rests on the cooperative effort of the whole world."- Eleanor Roosevelt

"Whatever you can do,
or dream you can,
begin it.
Boldness has
genius, power, and magic in it."

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
