The Peace Garden Project

O Lord, take from me all that separate me from You.

O Lord, give me all that unite me with You.

O Lord, take me out from myself and make me all yours.

(Nicolas de Flue 1417-1487)

The project consists in writing the word Peace on small hanging wooden plates in all languages for all trees of a selected place. Olives gardens and olive trees are traditionally associated with peace and constitute a good setting for the project and for meditation too.

The motivation of the project is to promote the sentiment Neohumanism or love for the entire creation . With this sentiment in their heart children and adults will never harm nature and fellow human beings. Peace will reign in this world.
