Dear Mark, John and all you other Peacemakers out there,
when Harrison took the manuscript of "The Practice of Peace" to his
publisher Berrett-Koehler at the beginning of the present millenium they
felt it didn't fit into their program...
He and everybody else were surprised about being surprised that this was
not the end of the book.
What happened?
Not only believing but knowing what the force of selforganisation is
capable of doing when finding enough space to unfold, Harrison signaled
to all of us that the book can be printed and distributed without any
strings attached.
Or in othe words, expanded the space.
What happened?
In no time flat the book was printed and distributed and later also
translated by folks in 8 countries around the globe in North America,
Europe, near and far Asia (from the European point of view), Australia,
the Caribic ... (see "A NOTE ON THIS PUBLICATION" on the second page of
The Practice of Peace as published two years later by the Human Systems
Dynamics Institute).
Harrison called this phenomenon the "Global Chaordic
Publication".
It is the string "Who is BS-ing Whom?" that instantly fired up my
synapses which resurfaced this phehomenon... and my thoughts later on.
Mulling over the current pandemic lets me wonder what incited the worst
pandemics on the globe.
Not surprising myself in any serious fashion I felt it is us ouselves...
like the creature in Pogo looking in a mirror seeing his enemy, see here
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/We_have_met_the_enemy
And what is it, at the core, that causes this disaster? Which virus is
that? What is the name of the disease this virus creates?
How about "control", the only real enemy of "selforganisation".
And who is best at controlling.
Yep, us.
What was the impedement to publishing "The Practice of Peace"? What
hindered an established, mainstream and well known publisher to turn
down a book from an author that had a vision?
If we start controlling OSLIST it will lose its meaning.
This does not mean that illegal content can be shown on OSLISt.
In Germany, for instance, and other countries in which German is the
main language and a dozen other countries it is illegal and punishable
to deny the holocaust. It is a crime to spread such "opinions" punished
in Germany by 3 months up to 5 years imprisonment.
It seems to me that I would feel much better if our exchange is as broad
as possible... it would expand the space for the most powerful and
sustained force we know of.
Greetings from Berlin where neighbors and friends and family come by on
this sunny winterday with a bit of snow ... curious to see what I look
like at the end of my 82nd year.
Cheers

I’m sorry but I do not think this kind of massive disinformation and
political agenda belongs on this list.

These are not my thoughts or my words. I Do not know the author.
But here is food for thought, or better put... here is a shot for
a thought... that I wanted to share with YOU, the World's greatest
peacemakers:
Quote from author unknown: ...Among all the vaccines I have
known in my life (diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, measles,
rubella, chickenpox, hepatitis, meningitis and tuberculosis), I
want to also add flu and pneumonia. I have never seen a vaccine
that forced me to wear a mask and maintain my social distance,
even when you are fully vaccinated. I had never heard of a vaccine
that spreads the virus even after vaccination. I had never heard
of rewards, discounts, incentives to get vaccinated. I never saw
discrimination for those who didn't. If you haven't been
vaccinated no one has tried to make you feel like a bad person. I
have never seen a vaccine that threatens the relationship between
family, colleagues and friends. I have never seen a vaccine used
to threaten livelihoods, work or school. I have never seen a
vaccine that would allow a 12-year-old to override parental
consent. After all the vaccines I listed above, I have never seen
a vaccine like this one, which discriminates, divides and judges
society as it is. And as the social fabric tightens… It's a
powerful vaccine! She does all these things except IMMUNIZATION.
If we still need a booster dose after we are fully vaccinated, and
we still need to get a negative test after we are fully
vaccinated, and we still need to wear a mask after we are fully
vaccinated, and still be hospitalized after we have been fully
vaccinated, it will likely come to ...It's time for us to admit
that we've been completely deceived... I have decided to never
refer to this conglomerate of chemicals as a ...vaccine.. again if
at all possible. It is not a legitimate vaccine, it is a
manufactured composition of unknown substances pretending to be
something it IS NOT. So, for me, I will only refer to it as an
INJECTION, which is being forced upon us to subject us to TOTAL
AUTHORITATIVE CONTROL of every aspect of our lives until every
human being on this planet has been made a subject of the ONE
WORLD GOVERNMENT, ONE WORLD ECONOMY, ONE WORLD RELIGION just as
has been foretold by many Prophecies in SCRIPTURE for untold
years. This so-called virus was instituted by design by those
whose agendum is TOTAL population CONTROL... - B.S.
...The further a society drifts from the truth the more it will
hate those who speak it...--George Orwell
