Peace Tree planting
We gather to plant a tree for peace, following the International Day of Peace. Living in peace means harmony with community and balance with the environment. This act is a sign of peace and respect for nature. The simple intention behind planting a tree is very powerful. Trees soften our minds and bodies, putting us in a different frame. They give everything without asking. In a garden, one gets back in touch with essential, simple human nature. Diverse intentions in this moment work in harmony toward a peaceful world.
"A peace tree means to fulfill your wish; a peace tree fulfills your wish."
"The tree gives us everything without asking, and when we come to the park and under the trees, automatically our wish is fulfilled."
