Dear systems thinkers,

Last Saturday March 5, the Work That Reconnects Network held a webinar/interview with Fritjof Capra and Jeremy Lent where they explored how the understandings of a systemic view of life and patterns in history can not only explain but also find solutions to the many complex challenges we are living today. You can watch the video here: https://workthatreconnects.org/webinar-and-conversation-cafe-series/

Those of you who may want to explore further on the practices and concepts of the Work That Reconnects (whose foundations include systems thinking, deep ecology and non-dualistic spirituality) are welcome to explore the WTR Network website and resources such as books, practices and attend events held by more than 200 WTR facilitators around the world. 

Those of you curious about Jeremy Lent's Principles and Practices of Deep Transformation: laying the groundwork for an ecological civilization, you can join here. There are three tiers you can choose from and some partial scholarships.

This gathering topic is "The Biology of Love"
 
 

"According to the systems view of life, all living beings share a set of common properties and principles of organization. When these essential characteristics of life are experienced by a conscious self they acquire new meaning. In this talk, Fritjof will identify the biological basis of love with a longing for attachment, for connectedness. He will argue that, ultimately, the experience of love is one of intense aliveness."


 

In gratitude,

Please join us - Prayers for World Peace -
A Sacred Space of Silence
Monday, March 7 @ 7:30 AM PST Zoom

*Mondays at 7:30 - 8:30am PST*

Thank you for your continued prayers for Ukraine, for Russia and for all the Countries, Nations and People suffering from war and conflict around Mother Earth! 

It is through Being Peace that we can make a difference in our world! To continue to support our humanity and to live harmoniously, the CSS PrayerLine will continue to offer a Sacred Space of Silence to connect our prayers every Monday on zoom, from 7:30-8:30am PST. 

In the words of Desmond Tutu:
"If we could but recognize our common humanity, that we do belong together, that our destinies are bound up in one another's, that we can be free only together, that we can be human only together, then a glorious world would come into being where all of us live harmoniously together as members of one family, the human family."

CSS PrayerLine invites you to join our Kayumari, Center for Sacred Studies and Fountain communities each Monday as we connect with each of you in this strong circle of prayers holding our Mother Earth and All Her Beings! Please feel free to invite your families, friends and communities to join us as well.  You may flow into the zoom at any time during this hour. If you are unable to be on the call, light your candles, walk in nature, or pray in whatever way that speaks to your soul.  

We will keep our altar lit to connect at 7:30am every day in your own time zone.   

In this way, we join our hearts and prayers with others around the world - for World Peace!

With love & compassion,
CSS PrayerLine
