September Theme: Pieces into Peace
When it feels like everything is falling into pieces, how can you find more Peace? When we are confused and asleep in the illusion of separation, there is no Peace in our world. Spiritual wisdom and tools can help us awaken and rise to the Truth that, as Dr. Ernest Holmes said, “Peace is always at the center of our own soul.” Oneness, Peace and Harmony prevail. Spiritual tools in our toolkit for Life help us have a Grand Rising in our personal and collective experience of Peace. In this month’s topic, we will explore: What is Peace? How to cultivate Inner Peace, Peace with others, Peace in community, and Peace on Earth--and truly put the “Peaces” together to Rise Up and BE the Peace we see in the world.

Week 1- Title: Rising from Pieces into Peace
About: Today we are going to explore what is Peace by first talking about what is “not peace”, learn how Dr.
Ernest Holmes defined Peace, and discover spiritual tools to take us to that place within that is
always filled with the God quality of Peace whenever we need it, truly transforming the pieces of our
lives into Inner Peace.

Week 2- Title: Waking Up to Oneness
About: When we view the world through the lens of “otherness” or separation (in “pieces”), it can be a scary
place. We may not feel safe and feel like we need to protect ourselves, thus reacting out of defensiveness and fear. When we have a Grand Rising, intentionally waking up to a world of Oneness (Peace) and Namaste, “The Divine in me recognizes and honors the Divine in you,” then we move to a place of love, curiosity, cooperation and compassion—our lives change for the better, experiencing a world filled with Peace, Love, and Harmony now.

Week 3- Title: Om Shanti Om
About: “Sangha” is a Sanskrit word from the Buddhist and Yogic philosophies meaning Spiritual Community:
a place where people come together to support each other’s spiritual growth and practice a culture of
Love, Peace, and Belonging.
There is POWER in coming together as a CSL Peace Sangha—supporting each other to BE the Peace we SEE in the world. Today we will learn about this power and ways that our CSL Peace Sangha can have a Grand Rising--lifting the collective Consciousness and further putting together the “pieces of Peace” in the world.

Week 4- Title: Imagine Peace
About: What we focus on grows—it is the Law of Attraction in action. If we use the power of our thoughts to
focus on all that is wrong in the world—we will experience more of what is wrong in the world (a world in “pieces”). If we use the power of our thoughts to Imagine Peace, we will start seeing those pieces turning into Peace and a Grand Rising is revealed! Let us join the dreamers of the world to Imagine the Sweet Reality of Peace Now.
