i'm going home to the
rainbow gathering, this year held in the colorado rockies.
it's always a very real experience of love, sharing, openness, communion and Utopia for me.
and on july 4th (
interdependence day) 20,000 of us strong are praying for peace on this beautiful planet.
i hope you can join us in that wherever you are.
be back in a week! take good care.
all we are saying is give peace a chance. regarding the song, on the day of july 4th, all the thousands at the gathering are silent. meditating. embodying peace.
then at high noon all wordlessly stand and gather into a massive circle.
the person in front of you is just a small dot.
everyone clasps hands and prays in whatever way they wish.
some start to ommmmmmmmmmm. it's a chilling experience to hear hundreds
of people in a unfathomably giant circle ommmmmmmmmmmmmm.
then the children burst out of kiddy village and lead a colourful
parade down to the middle of the circle, singing this song.
little children with their beautifully joyous high-flying voices singing,
'all we are saaaaaaaying is give peace a chaaaaaaaaaaaance'
you're a stone if you're not drenched in tears by then.
...............
amazing..
