principles for InterSpiritual activism, so that we may move the work of
world peace forward as a cohesive unit. This meeting will also be a tribute

A Simple Case of Mistaken Identity:
Manhattan,
New York City
Preregistration at www.nyimc.org
(click on retreat) or at the door on the day of the event
Instead of retreating from life, this daylong event
is an invitation to return to that which we have always been and to include
everything. The ego functioning mind has become exhausted and confused
in trying to get it right and to be somebody. This is revealed to be a
simple case of mistaken identity. Ego functioning mind is not our identity.
Our true identity is already free and happy for no reason. It does not
need to be developed or improved upon, but simply recognized and realized.
In this experiential day, There will be a ³glowing away² party following the
event at 5:30 (whether you attend or not). Loch and Paige are

Byron
Shire and the Rainbow Region The
Spirit of Peace is a fundamental value to the quality of life for the communities
of the Byron Shire and the Rainbow Region. The Byron Peace Carnival celebrates
this culture of Peace as a showcase for ideas, art, ingenuity and creativity
in pursuit of peaceful living and focuses on the challenges and opportunities
for living in peace ‹ within our community and with the rest of the planet.
The Byron Peace Carnival offers a full interactive day with a rally, street
pageant, entertainment, arts, games, information and colourful displays
to inform, educate and excite. It will be a full day of fun for the whole
family to share skills, interests and activities, learning better ways
to live on the earth. During
the 2005 Byron Peace Carnival, The World Peace Flame will be the focus
of a prayer vigil on 17th September and of the walk and peace celebrations
on Sunday, 18th September. The
World Peace Flame was created in 1999 when seven flames were lit by indigenous
elders, peacemakers and royalty from all continents and were flown, with
the help of military air forces across the globe to be united as one eternally
burning flame in The
World Peace Flame has since been carried back into the world as a unifying
symbol of the deep yearning that all people have for peace. This
flame has been presented to millions of people in homes, schools, work
areas and in war zones; and to community leaders, foreign embassies, government
departments, ministers, prime ministers and presidents in places of decision
making.
As part of the Byron Peace
Carnival festivities, the World Peace Flame will be installed as a permanent
fixture in the Byron Bay Community Centre - an eternal flame for peace
burning in the heart of Byron Shire. This will be the first Australian
World Peace Flame monument accessible to the public, and one of only eight
in the world. |

Peace Site Declared!
September
18, 2005. The
Ethical Culture Society of Queens will declare itself a Peace Site today,
joining hundreds of towns, community organizations, and religious institutions
across the world also committed to peace. "In
becoming a Peace Site, we declare our firm opposition to unjust wars, unmitigated
violence, and unfounded fear as a way of life. We turn affirmatively to
the hard work of creating a more peaceful world. Let this humble
place be a home to all those who seek peace, both today and for many years
to come." "Alone,
we are weak. Together, we will light the way. And so we are proud
to stand with the millions who are committed to bringing peace to this
violent world of ours--we join today with the 11 Days of Peace 2005 movement
to celebrate the true peaceful potential of humanity," said David M. Reis,
Leader of the Society. The
Peace Site movement, founded in 1981 by Father Berrigan and others at the
Ethical Culture Society of Essex County in Maplewood NJ, today numbers
hundreds of institutions with a shared commitment to the concept of creating
"peace bases" as a means of sanctuary, and as a means of actively opposing
the military bases that dot our globe. The
Ethical Culture Society of Queens meets Sundays at 11 at the From
NJ PeaceSites website: The
dread of nuclear war, and concern for future generations prompted the invention
of an antonym for military sites--Peace Sites. It occurred to Louis Kousin,
who became the Peace Sites coordinator, that military sites dot the landscape,
not only in our country, but also in a considerable part of the world.
Why not dot the landscapes with Peace Sites? The
Peace Site can be a creative, positive way of establishing a physical presence,
to consolidate and expand peace work. Now,
with the prospect of a national anti-ballistic missile system, unraveling
a generation of bilateral and multilateral peace-keeping treaties and of
nuclearization and weaponization of space, the prospect of both greatly
enhanced in the emotional response to the horrific September 11 attack,
it is time to rededicate existing peace sites and create new ones - to
raise our consciousness and be a public presence as a force for non-violent
conflict resolution and nuclear disarmament. Their
existence is visible proof of the intelligent response of people to the
dangers of the militarization of our society. |

Susana Bastarrica Hello
Dear Friends: The
Vigil for International Peace Central Park Project is an international,
transformational grassroots effort dedicated to promoting peace through
nonviolent resolution. It is meant to demonstrate the power of prayer and
intent as a way to heal; empowering our lives and our communities to achieve

the vision
of the Central Park Bandshell Vigil each year, this being reflected in
the sheer
number of international artists participating to make each event unique
and
vibrant.
In its 4th year, The Vigil for International Peace was inspired by The
United
Nations 2001 resolution 55/282 designating September 21 of each year as
an
"International Day of Peace" to have the entire world observe a full day
of "global
ceasefire and nonviolence." The
event will commence around 9.00 a.m on September 18th 2005 with an Opening
Ceremony of music and celebration. Throughout the day children¹s choirs,
artists, singers and musicians as well as representatives from world religions
will contribute to our program of events. Celebrate
with us, bring your family and friends to fun and interactive art and musical
presentations, dance festivals, peace meditations, speeches and talks by
delegates, students and young people. Come and meet the many in our community
who share the spirit of peace through prayer. Kindly
forward this information to your friends, and all those who might be interested
in participating, Thank
you!! Greetings
