From John Boone:

"Have been following this on Facebook & the news. Wish they were coming through my neck of the woods but they are not. I am delighted at the reception they are getting where they are traveling. May all people of faith know the love that is being spread here."

From Paul Grayhurst:

An example of one way to push back at evil.

Look at the positive response this simple daily act is creating.

Kudos to these monks and Aloka for bringing out the love and peace that is inside the vast majority of us.

This isn’t going to go away on its own. There is no one, certainly no leader who is going to swoop in and save the nation, let alone the world.

However, there is YOU. Yes you, yes we…

WE have all the power we need, together to fix this mess. Each one of us merely needs to use it TOGETHER with every one else.

There are as many ways to help as there are people. We all have our own superpowers. Use your skills.

We are not helpless. We are powerful…

TOGETHER.

F*€¥ EVIL!

May I be brave. May I not fear change. May I not fear old age. May I not fear sickness. May I not fear death. May I be open. May I say yes to my life moment by moment. May I be a message and agent of possibility and transformative action. May I be patient. May I live with a sense of urgency. May I see the interconnectivity of all with all. May I be kind. May I understand what is real. May I be creative. May I be at peace. May I be happy. And may you be as well.

"The pilgrimage was conceived as a response to global and national uncertainty, intended to bring blessings and promote inner peace during a time of intense political and social division in the U.S.. The goal is not protest, but a “journey to bring blessings” and to promote “loving-kindness and compassion”. Thank you for posting this today, Rob. I believe one of the privileges and purposes of every human being is to bring (and receive) blessings and promote (and offer) loving-kindness and compassion. Reading the words from the 20 Buddhist monks crystalized my next project. Thank you!

Wonderful! I look forward to learn more about your next project. Blessings to you.

Another incarnation of a peace pilgrimage.

Peace is not passivity. We remember the birthday yesterday of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his peaceful marches for civil rights, social justice and an end to war.
