Hi!
Once we opened the space with singing at Castle Borl. A friend from
Malaysia shared her voice with us. It was powerful...

Mikk -- I can just se it now. The OS Band. We already have temple bells,
now
a flute. And actually drums have been around for a bit. The
possibilities
are rather mind-blowing. Just imagine an opening circle with not a word.
Just bells, flute and drums.

It might be true, but possibly there have been some OS events also in
Latvia. Last year, when HO conducted Practice of Peace training in
Tartu,
Estonia there was later in May OS training conducted by one Lithuanian
trainer. So I guess something might have happened also between Estonia
and
Lithuania, it is in Latvia. At least, there was  young lady from Latvia
attending Michael Pannwitz OS training in Weimar last year, and she
intended
to get started.
In Estonia OS is widening step-by-step. In March I conducted my first OS
training and one third of attendants have started to open space
themselves.
Last week I opened space for regional development plan in South Estonia
and
it was a real outburst of enthusiasm by attendants. One local municipal
director admitted in final circle, that he cannot understand how it
happened, that he stayed at the event until end. Usually they leave in
first
two hours. But the law of two feets made him to stay - until there is
something to learn or contribute, don't leave!
Yesterday I got through two days OS about learning outdoors the whole
curriculum from kindergartens to universities.
Most radical action plan, which was proposed, was to end the compulsory
education at all and to give the responsibility back to people
themselves.
My experience has been, that my flute is an excellent helper to open
more
space, when I feel that it is needed. It is marvellous experience to
play
flute in the way that you are perfectly present and totally invisible.
Has
anybody tried out opening more space with making music?
With best greetings from Estonia,
Mikk Sarv
