Welcome to Peace to All Beings. This is a place to imagine, dream, pray, and believe that we human beings can awaken to our higher consciousness, embrace a new paradigm of living in harmony, rather than in fear and domination and become "Homo Ahimsa," my term for the new nonviolent and kindhuman that we can become. This is a place to bear witness to the violence around us and at the same time hold fast to the bold vision of a world at peace, not only for people, but for all life. This is a place to explore and agree that there is hope for our species, that we will not continue to destroy. Together let us co-create a new culture and heal the wounds humanity has caused to the earth, to each other, and to the animals who share this world with us.

Loving the Whole World

This is a wonderful poem/prayer quoted from Fyodor Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov.  I often think of this when I am walking in nature.  It reminds me how deeply connected we are to all of life and how much joy it brings us to be in the silence and feel the wonder of life all around us--The Divine Mystery.

Love all God's Creation,

The whole of it and
every grain of sand.


Love every leaf,

Every ray of God's Light!


Love the Animals,

Love the plants,

Love Everything.

If you love everything,


You will perceive the
Divine Mystery in things.

And once you have perceived it, you
 will begin to comprehend it
ceaselessly more and more every day.


And you will at last come
to love the whole world
with an abiding,
Universal Love.
