The Peace Path & Peace Poles

The Peace Path is a connection between world communities, hearts, minds, and physical space. It is about learning to honor
the peace within, talking peace, presenting peace, dancing peace, walking in peace. It is dialogue with diverse audiences,
and getting to know your neighbor - both next door and several thousands of miles away. It can be made manifest in one's
own thoughts, words, deeds, and actions. At Tourism For Peace, we build the Peace Path in our heart, mind, and spirit, and
physically in the communities we visit and serve. Linking Peace Paths around the world is our goal - creating sanctuaries,
and roads of peace.
Come spend time with community members and other guests building the Peace Path, from the local community Peace Garden to
places of peace in the town - the church, the school, the grocery store, a youth leader's house, etc. Wherever peace is supported
and encouraged becomes part of the Peace Path - for people to walk and interact with in a manner of peace.
Organic gardens, labyrinths, meditation spaces, playgrounds, and performance areas can be included in the Peace Path,
and its path can be dotted with stepping stones, made and decorated by local children. Waterfalls, ponds, natural "backyard
habitats", flower gardens, and imaginative places can all be created and included in the Peace Path.
Special Peace Poles: "May Peace Prevail On Earth," can be erected as reminders of this path of peace, and as
a dedication to a world at peace.

Peace Ceremonies & Performances
Peace Pole Dedication Ceremony!


On June 5th, 2006, we added a Peace Pole, from the World Prayer Society, to our Dancing Bear Labyrinth. Over
40 people, including two Cherokee Elders, came to say prayers of peace, walk the labyrinth, and send peace to the world.
The Peace Pole has "May Peace Prevail on Earth" in 4 languages: Cherokee, English, Chinese, and Spanish.

Peace ceremonies can be done anywhere - with small groups or a gathering of thousands. Come walk labyrinths, form sacred
circles, read prayers, broadcast peace from the heart, sing, and dance!
Honor our physical and spirtual connections to the Earth and to each other. We are one Peoples, one Earth, one Heaven,
one Universe. May Peace Prevail On Earth!
A Prayer For All Humanity:
The Great Invocation
"From the point of Light within the Mind of God
Let light stream forth into the minds of men.
Let Light descend on Earth.
From the point of Love within the Heart of God
Let love stream forth into the hearts of men.
May Christ [the embodiment of Love] return to Earth.
From the centre where the Will of God is known
Let purpose guide the little wills of men -
The purpose which the Masters know and serve.
From the centre which we call the race of men
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out
And may it seal the door where evil dwells.
Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth."
[Alice A. Bailey, 1995 "The Seven Rays of Life" p. ix.]
