RING OF POWER, Saturday 27th of September To all Peaceworkers, So much of the news that comes to us from the world – Syria, Ebola, Ukraine – is depressing. But at the same time, its to be expected: We are living in a time that has been foreseen by many: a time of deep crises, leading to global transformation. Global crises – and also personal conflicts – are coming to a head; to such an extent that it can be hard to still believe that healing, or lasting peace, are possible. Yet if we lose this faith, the forces of darkness will have it very easy. To resist them, we need a firm and clear vision of peace. This vision gives us the strength to do our work for peace every day. It is a vision that connects us with other people around the world, who are working towards the same goals. A true vision is not an individual or subjective matter: It is born out of a cooperation with the divine forces that are always at work within and around us – and at the same time, it is a product of our own thinking and creativity. A few days ago Dieter Duhm, the founder of the project of the Healing Biotop, had a birthday. Together with his life-partner, Sabine Lichtenfels, he is on a healing journey; which is deep and very challenging, but also full of hope. We send him all our positive thoughts and wishes for recovery. As a Power Text, we have chosen an extract from his new book. Text of Empowerment: What is Peace? Chapter of the new book by Dieter Duhm: “Terra Nova. Global Revolution and the Healing of Love.” - to be published on November 9th by the Meiga publishing house, for now only in German. Peace is the power of life free from fear, connected to human solidarity. Peace is more than the opposite of war; peace is a life quality that, over the past few thousand years, could not be manifested in a lasting way because the inner conditions were lacking. People fought for peace and at the same time carried conflict in their hearts that has been carved into their souls through their harsh history. Sabine Lichtenfels writes, “Human beings have been praying for peace for millennia and they have fought for peace, but in their inner consciousness they have forgotten what peace is. They no longer know its inner laws. Human beings lack an encompassing inner vision of peace. A vision is an objective reality that can be seen and felt from within. It is inherent as a possibility in evolution and is waiting to be seen and accessed by human beings again” (Lichtenfels, “Sources of Love and Peace,” 86) This means that the peace vision needs to be recalled from the cosmic database. It already exists in the universe. It is our honorable task to cooperate with the universe and manifest this vision. It lies as an entelechy in the plan of creation and in the genetic information at the core of our cells. We physically feel whether a vision is right or wrong. If we act in accordance with true peace, a healing power instantaneously arises in our organism. Peace Pilgrim, who walked with an unshakable commitment for peace said, “There is a criterion by which you can judge whether the thoughts you are thinking and the things you are doing are right for you. That criterion is: have they brought you inner peace? If they have not, there is something wrong with them – so keep trying” (Peace Pilgrim, “Steps Toward Inner Peace,” 34).
