    Slide 5:We called out community together.... Churches and centers formed task forces Individuals met among friends or sought out other groups We stood on a foundation of prayer and meditation, rooted in nonviolence We invited others from different religions, cultures, ideologies, and professions into a nonjudgmental, inclusive dialogue... we shared our stories We studied common educational and training materials, developed resources, asked questions, shared wisdom, learned from one another We became social strategists and organizational designers at a high level of competence – not because we adopted a hierarchy, but because we uncovered our collective gifts through a process of emergence We brought our programs and projects in front of decision- and policy- makers, local media, Boards of Education, and more We communicated our successes and challenges within our communities, and also to the central hub coordinating Season for Nonviolence so that our work could be shared as templates with others, reducing our collective learning curve greatly

    SNV 1998-2007: Our “Collaboratory” for Spiritually-Motivated Social Action The first decade of the Season for Nonviolence became successful because we all took responsibility, as a whole, for “being the change we wish to see in the world.”

    Slide 6: As a result of this deep and sustained dedication, A new model for omni-local, spiritually-based peace governance has emerged successfully, igniting entire communities. The Gandhi King Season for Nonviolence project has evolved through our collective, exemplary leadership in more than 400 cities in the U.S. and 18 other countries during the past ten Seasons. AGNT’s spiritually-based model for nonviolence has seeded peace-building communities that integrate vision and action. We know that the key to empowerment is compassionate visionary consciousness coupled with enlightened choices toward action.

    Slide 7: It has been said that, “If you want peace, work for justice.” This quote is attributed to Pope Paul VI. Through dedicated prayer, research, education, planning, team-building, dialogue, logistics, fundraising, and successful implementation of events and programs promoting nonviolent personal and social transformation, we have identified common factors that are at the root of all peace-building:

    Slide 8:Compassion/understanding/forgiveness/acceptance Positive interfaith and intercultural relationships “Omni-local IS global” Connection is critical – both psychologically and organizationally Education/awareness is key to resolving conflict Sharing our wisdom with others, and benefiting from others’ experience, are equally important Along with rights, come responsibilities Each one of us is VERY powerful; together we are more powerful than alone; serving a larger vision and Source as a unified humanity is infallible We create change by living the change. If we are consistent in our consciousness, we are already doing it.
