Please join with me and colleagues from around the world in an exploration
of our practice of peace for our selves, our organizations, and our world.
From Haiti, Columbia, Palestine, India (Kashmir), and Israel -- all places
not known for Peace -- these people are on the ground opening space for
peace. This is not another training program. It is an opportunity to
explore and share our growing understanding of a powerful and effective way
to peace. Peggy Holman from Seattle is spearheading the effort. Her
invitation follows, which I hope you will accept.

********************************************
Everyone,
I am THRILLED to invite you to the PRACTICE of PEACE, November 9-12 at the
Whidbey Institute, 1-hour north of Seattle, Washington, USA.
What makes this so exciting is that in addition to Harrison, there will be
colleagues from Israel (Tova Averbuch and Avner Haramati), the Palestinian
territories (Carol Daniel), India working in Kashmir (Arun Wakhlu),
Colombia (Pablo Restrepo), and Haiti (John Engle) who are opening space
for peace. For an evening and 3 days, we'll explore peace within
organizations, neighborhoods and communities, between factions of society,
among nations and even peace within ourselves.
This is an opportunity to be with seasoned practitioners from many lands
who are opening space for a better world. As someone who already knows
the value of opening space, consider this a gift to yourself to deepen
your practice.
Here are the details:
