PEACE WALK FOR BURMA APRIL 9



"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly." Martin Luther King, Jr.

Tonight, my magic carpet took me to Spirit Rock Meditation Center in Marin County, where Jack Kornfield led us in meditation. He then gave a refreshing and inspiring talk about spring and planting seeds, constantly bringing the focus back to how our simple, sometimes small actions, have far and wide affects. I was deeply touched, moved, and humbled at Spirit Rock tonight.

All the proceeds of this March 31 Monday night meditation, were being donated to Tibetan Center For Human Rights and Democracy, www.tchrd.org

As a result of tonight, I decided to participate in the April 9 PEACE WALK FOR BURMA which coincides with the only North American city to relay the Olympic torch. Details are available with this link: here

I've never walked across the Golden Gate Bridge and I can't think of a better reason to do it than to express disapproval peacefully for what is happening so far from our little oasis of Northern California.
