I'd like to... begin... an exploration of the ideas that create radical loving peace in the world. Share ideas that thrive, as if resources are not an issue. Imagine, TRUST, that Gaian Angels watch and read. Some of them have bodies and bank accounts, some of them whisper in the ear of another... who passes it on...
The best ideas will come to life in their own time and way. For now, share as if healthy seeds will THRIVE.

Re: Radical Prayer
Wed, January 7, 2009 - 6:19 AMOne apaproach I take to things that are scared...
scared scar-ed. Hurt, in pain. Wounded, wound like energy bound too tightly.
how can I reinterpret this as 'sacred'... use the languge... it shows hidden paths.
Prisons are increasingly being privatized. This creates an economic incentive to care LESS for the people there (execs will have more money for themselvves... and to want MORe people to be incarcerated... more money to make, encourages slave labor in prisons.
i could
a) be scared
b) be sacred
What is Gaia Doing?
This is Gaia challenging us.
When a Prison is privatized, it means ANY group could conceivably run it. So what if a non-profit were set up that takes over ONE prison. It gets run in a totally different way. same safeguards etc... but lots of yoga. Ltos of particapatory mealmaking. consistent options to choose paths that build skills consistent optinos to choose environoments within the prison that are safe. Options to speak out to the world... on the web.
This isn't a namby pamby... they are all victims idea.
I believe all pain, all abuse, all victimization is Karma. That doesn't mean anyone 'deserves it'. It means the focus has to be on changing the momentum of behavior. on creating radical tools to form a new life out of the passion that has been unchannelled, out of control, pain in need of hurting another in order to escape the feelings of weakness.
To heal something, its necessary to take it to an entirely new level. Not a little different, totally different. To make this a total priveledge to be a part of. Just a dream I'm sending back out into the world
tell me yours. -

Re: Radical Prayer
Sat, January 10, 2009 - 8:18 AMI believe that this dream is a much needed reality....prisons right now are just revolving doors and institutions for learning more fear, hate, violence, abuse, and crime. I've met a few skinheads in my life and one interesting common thread I found was that before they went to prison they were not racists or supremists. They had friends of different races and/or different religions or cultures. It was being in prison and the system within that gave them a hard choice to make; pick a side. If they chose no group they would receive no help within the society of prison, limiting their survival. Yet outside the walls of prison their choice limits them again. Most leave with tattoos that mark them forever and show the world their "tribe", their fear, their hatred. It becomes a way of life that is very hard to transcend and usually inevitably leads them back to prison or at least wanted and on the run. This dream that you have could be the beginning of something life-changing, society-changing, culture-changing. Dream big!
Many Blessings,
Jessie
