Those who are walking in the name of “GRACE”…

Here is a wonderful quote of the book “GRACE. Pilgrimage for a Future without War” by Sabine Lichtenfels. I present it also as an invitation to join and support this years’ GRACE pilgrimage in Colombia in October 2008. May the power of GRACE rise on our planet…!

“The pilgrimage is to lead us to Israel/Palestine to the so called Holy Land, a region which has been dominated by war, conflict, struggle and division for a long time.
If this pilgrimage is to be a success in terms of inner and outer peace work, then a spiritual source will be needed. This will make us as pilgrims act in both a correct and healing way despite any difficult situations. In search of a name for the pilgrimage we came across the term GRACE. Grace has many connotations and in English comprises more than the word “Gnade” does in German.

GRACE is mercy, favour, charm, sweetness, readiness, charity, consideration, congeniality and also stands for the act of Grace itself.

GRACE reminds me of walking in the service of the higher mission, in the service of life and its inherent justice. Those who are walking in the name of GRACE do not come to accuse. They do not come to impart a new ideology on a country or on a land and its people – they come in the service of openness, of perception and of support.”

“I saw the world without any fighting…”

Eugene Cernan was an astronaut from the U.S. and the “last man on the moon”… and while he was out there – “a quarter million miles away” looking into space, he saw something so beautiful, so precious and important, that he had to write it down later: “I saw the world without any borders, without any fighting, without any fear (…) and isn’t it the way we perceive things what makes them what they will be?”

Two brothers, Paul and Ralph Colwell, came to read these words and made up a song. The music was added also by Herb Allen.

As Charly Rainer Ehrenpreis, co-worker of the peace research center Tamera, learned this song from a friend of the Colwell brothers some years later, it became a favorite song of the Tamera community. Its title: Moonrider.

Listen to the music…!

The song expresses on the level of the soul what the book “Future without War” explains in scientific terms. A world without fighting is possible! A future without war is possible! We “only” need to open up to new ways of perception, of ideas and concepts. “And isn’t it the way we perceive things what makes them what they will be?”
