True Peace demands big changes – and for many of us, that means undergoing an initiatory journey where we open up to new levels of growth, capacity and insight.
But even with the best intentions for peace, you hit up against resistance, fear and old wounds. The status quo and old paradigms and history block you, too; as do old ways of relating to others, which can lead to negativity and conflict instead of compassion and mutual respect.
How can you dissolve barriers to peace inside and outside of you, and make your dream of peace a reality – allowing you to enjoy the loving connections that we all know are possible?
How can you truly walk the path of a great peacemaker?
You can learn from someone who’s gone before you and become a beacon of peace in the world, right where you are.

James, We have met at IONs and also at the Alliance for a New Humanity in Costa Rica a few years ago. You are a great Master and Inspirer, and are undoubtedly making a great positive impact on the world. People who want peace and want to "be the change" can transform under your guidance. But what about those who drive wars and conflicts because they lack the ability to see the world your way, and who are blinded by their own fear and greed? - Don´t you think Auschwitz and Belsen and Buchenwald were filled with peace-loving people? - I know anyone can transform him- or herself if they so wish, but to transform those who really need to be transformed for us all to have peace, and who do not want to be transformed, is another matter. As I see it, that´s something we must address, if we don´t want to wait one or several more generations, to achieve the world peace we are yearning for.
So how go about it? All kinds of violence are of course ruled out. But we have to not only go inside, but actively build an alternative society that can function independently of the warmongers presently in power, thereby depriving them of their support and their source of power. Because in the final anlaysis, they depend more for their power on us, the peace-loving people, than we depend on them. And it is when we realize this, and join forces to exercise our power "off the grids", that real change towards peace can occur.
I have written an Action Plan for Shifting Paradigm as a manual on how to begin creating the desired changes in our society, and it can be ordered free of charge from the Contact page of my website http://www.ParadigmWatch.com
