today was a day of peace action with rallies around the world to demand an end to the drumbeat of war with Russia over Ukraine and to hold teach-ins around the country to resist the normalization of war and demand that not a single bullet or gun be sent to Ukraine and no new troops or arms to Eastern Europe – we must use diplomacy and negotiation and stop the drumbeat of war…. in this moment of eternity, let us surrender and soften into the embrace of the sheltering arms of the cosmic ree of life breathing into our bellies, sacred space of wisdom and stillpoint of peace, on the seventh day of celebrating a season of peace…

“Peace to all beings
Whether near or far
Known or unknown
Real or imaginary
Visible or invisible
Born or yet to be born.
May all beings
Be well and happy
And free from fear.

Peace to all beings
Within and beyond the imagination
In the world of ideas
In the world of memories
And in the world of dreams.
May all beings
Be well and happy
And free from fear.

Peace in all elements
Of earth, air, fire and water
Fulfilled in space
Peace.

Peace in all universes
From the smallest cells in our bodies
To the greatest galaxies in space
Peace
And light rising

Peace to all beings
Within each being here
To those beings that have been in the past
And to those beings that are yet to be in the future
May all beings
Within each being here
Be well and happy
And free from fear.”

(Buddhist Prayer)

on this day of peace, re-membering the quintessential peace pilgrims, thanks be for our tuning into the timeless frequency of being peace in this moment, in every moment of eternity…
