You Tube gardening for harmony
by ecology action Wednesday January 24, 2007 at 10:40 AM
Sydney

Sydney news is running today with another symptom of the NSW election White Supremacism dry run for the Howard re election agenda: You Tube hate video's of varying degree. Here is a nice peace loving response there, which sort of befuddles the hate and anger mongering.

Here is a report of the hateomongering via new media:

http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/gang-thug-video-sickening/2007/01/24/1169518746379.html

At every YouTube I suggest string add this entry an entry like this (YT seem to be accepting of this approach with about 20 added this morning):

"Gandhi's 10 principles of nonviolence

http://cpppcltrust.tripod.com/ecologyactionsydney/id14.html
"

A similar summary of the Gandhi non violence philosophy would be just as appropriate.

For those already into this kind of nonviolence in some fashion they might forget like riding a bike how powerful the prescription is for those infected with violence who have never head it before.

Only a saint can live up to the full observance but it has great resonance and value as a cultural message, creating a common sense framework to address underlying disagreements from there.

A good antitode I've seen work in many situations. Like a vibes watcher at a fraught meeting.
