 by Marie T. Russell. Many of us want to make a difference in our lives, and in the lives of the people we love. We were born with a seed in our being desiring a better world, knowing that peace and love are a much better choice than anger and fear. Yet, we also are living in the 'dense reality' of Planet Earth, where greed, fear, and anger, have run rampant. We have had to make choices many times between these energies |

by Robert Rabbin, John Robbins, Rabbi Michael Lerner, Dan Millman, Tom Hayden, et al. There are times in life when we must act. And when those moments come, we must act with our truest heart, our clearest mind, and our noblest intentions. November 2 is such a time. On that day, we will take in hand one of the tools for social transformation. We will exercise our right to vote and our responsibility to voice our values and conscience. We will choose a new president and vice president. We, the signers of this letter, after full consideration, careful study, and deep reflection, endorse and recommend John Kerry and John Edwards for these offices. We urge all of you to vote for them. This is a matter of great importance and urgency. |

 by Robert Rabbin. It is self-evident that peace among nations will never grow from the blood-soaked and stained earth of war. When will we realize that killing others never ends the cycle of killing, that vengeance and retribution never bring peace? When will we lose our appetite for killing, for war, for slaughter, for murder? When will we find another way towards peace and justice? It must be now, if we are to leave anything worth leaving to our children. We cannot listen to or be persuaded by those whose absolutism is unguarded by wisdom. |

 by bobby jennings. This election is a referendum on the Bush Presidency not the Kerry Presidency. We can?t be absolutely sure what a Kerry term will feel like but we definitely know what a George W. Bush term feels like. George W. Bush described himself as a compassionate conservative and a uniter during the 2000 election. However, here?s what we have learned about George W. Bush |

 No people on Earth ever enjoyed a freedom like we Indians enjoyed before the White Man came to this country. Everything was free. We were free and so were the animals and the birds and the rivers and the whole wonderful land from end to end. This was the freest and purest and happiest place...

 During one of my classes, I read aloud a passage about how all the animals and beings of the natural world want humans to learn to reconnect and communicate with them so that we can work together to save the planet. I believe that other life forms are aware of what's happening on the earth...

 by Abd-ru-shin. Written in the 1930s. 'Life' is more than mere physical existence: it includes the human spirit. And 'Thou Shalt Not Kill!' is directed toward protecting both the body and spirit in ourselves and in others. On the battlefield with terrorists, in wars perpetrated over religious differences, and even in school hallways where children shoot their classmates, human beings are taking the lives of others. What person doesn't hear a little voice within asking, 'How can this be happening?' At some point we begin to realize that violence begets violence, and that the human race is in a vicious cycle of aggression, often unable to find a way out. Yet we must, if we are to achieve what every true human being yearns for: peace. |

 When we watch TV, we are in the alpha level. Much to the gratification of the advertisers, it is a highly programmable state of awareness. For too many of us, television has become a companion who is always there, doesn't argue, and is full of entertainment. If we are to take seriously the many ways consciousness influences reality then we cannot ignore the impact of the media.

by Eckhart Tolle.
A Native American chief pointed out "The whites always want something. They are always uneasy and restless." The undercurrent of constant unease was there at the time of Jesus, and the Buddha taught that the root of suffering is in our constant wanting and craving. This collective dysfunction has created an unhappy and...

For our first 125 years, about 35 percent of the members of the House retired before every election, because they believed that was good for them and good for the nation. This does not mean that pure altruism was at work here. In the first century, congressmen had not yet learned the art of feathering their own nests with hundred-thousand-dollar salaries, million-dollar pensions, large and obsequious staffs, and all the perks and privileges that power is heir to. In short, remaining in Congress for decades was not as attractive then as now. |
