The Peace Chiefs - A Talk by Tim Mac MacCartney

The Peace Chiefs We are called to step forward, to take our place, to find our courage and stand naked in the fierce temperatures of these extraordinary and wondrous times. The Peace Chiefs were warriors of the heart. They pledged themselves to peace. They followed the twin trail - the inner path of self-unfolding and the outer path of having effect in the world. Now amongst the valleys and hills of our land the story of the Peace Chiefs is whispered to the wind once more. It is a call sent out across the grey-misted waters of the Celtic sea from the songmakers and the storytellers. We belong to the land, we belong to the sea, we are called.

Sustainability equates to a sustainable global society founded on respect for nature, universal human rights, economic justice, and a culture of peace. Peace making is another way of creating sustainability, of healing the earth and the people's therein. Going forward into this century, with all the overwhelming issues we have to face, without peace we shall not survive as a society in which we would want or children to live. Editor
