The reflections in this book are culled from The Peace Books. Unlike the Peace Books, which jump in and out of the frying pan, this book attempts to remain in the pan and concentrate the heat on the chaff (i.e the language of complacency/war) so that it might be more easily discerned and separated from the wheat (i.e. the language of peace).
My intent with this book, is that it will help us to be mindful of the subtle ways we perpetuate violence in our lives on a daily basis, causing us to forget how to deepen our practice of peace.
