The project is about taking this ancient knowledge of the first peace and translating it into a form that is accessible for young people of these times.
There will be 20 young people meeting in Denmark in June to receive this training and then translate it into something that is universal enough that it can be used all over the world and something that intrigues young people.
In August we will present this new youth curriculum at the World Foundation for Peace’s gathering in New Mexico, where there will be people from around the world.
From here we will see what possibilities arises. That be conducting teachings within the Discipline of Peace, Creating Peace Centers, bringing this approach into businesses and schools… we will see.
The First Peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness, with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells Wakan Tanka, the Great Spirit, and that this center is everywhere, and it is within each of us.
This is the real peace, and others are but reflections of this. The second peace is that which is made by two individuals, and the third is that which is made between two nations. But above all you should understand that there can never be peace between nations until there is known that true peace, which, as I have often said, is within the souls of the people.”
