Homing Vigils for Global Peace Now!
By David Crockett Williams
Written - March 28, 2003
Everyone who is not satisfied with the status quo, and who is frustrated about the seriousness of the various problems faced by society
and humanity today and the ignorance of these problems and their solutions, wants to do something to correct the situation, but what?
Does complaining about the problems, and vigorously expounding the logic of blame, solve the problems?
Instead of "taking to the streets" in vain attempts to get sympathetic media coverage of protest events' messages about these problems
and their solutions, to better inform the public and leaders on public opinion, in today's electronic information-age where such recalcitrant
media may be better by-passed the the information superhighway -- isn't there a better way, ie, to demonstrate in many places locally,
working models for a global culture of peace for the 21st Century, a model for a Third Millennium Global Culture of Peace?
Yes, by creating "global peace zones" in various communities, centered around locations where peacemaking practitioners conduct sacred
vigils for sustainable global peace, and show by their performance that the demonstrators know what they are talking about -- in terms of
the nature and scope of the problems and details of their optimum solutions--as gleaned from onsite ongoing peace ceremonies and
councils perhaps internet-linked wirelessly globally.
Isn't it time to just stay home and create global peace now, or do we continue to get upset and critical and uptight and unpeaceful to protest
problems instead of figuring out and implementing, or at least suggesting, their solutions? Do we continue to fight the disease of fear and anger
behind the warmonger paradigm mentality, fight fear with fear and anger with anger?
What weapons or tools can best be used to fight and conquer the fear and anger responsible for mentalities of "might makes
right" and law as nothing more than regulations made up by a few and enforced on the many by violence and the threat of violence?
"Is this any way to run an airline?"
How do we best shift humanity from the "us vs. them" paradigm to a global "just us" paradigm, the paradigm for global peace now?
This is called offering the spiritual unity understanding for the awaited global spiritual re-awakening of humanity to its innately divine human
nature and character, i.e., the "what it is" to "being human" and how such understanding leads to acceleration of advancement of human
capabilities, physical and mental health, etc., i.e., human evolution accelerated by the enlightenment of the inviolable sovereignty of the
innately sacred and divine natural law order which is operational consequent to the absolute nature of truth itself as applied best
by the human mind when guided by conscience referencing the five innate natural divine spiritual human values of truth, love, peace,
righteousness/right-conduct/duty, and nonviolence.
Everyone already knows the truth, even if pretending otherwise or otherwise convinced by a mind confused from focusing primarily on
fulfillment of personal desires instead of personal responsibilities.
Peace is innate to human nature. We need not try to create it, or protest its absence, just demonstrate it properly by "being peace"-- where "being it together" means global peace now.
