<div class="moz-cite-prefix">thanks for all of this!<br>
we are trusting in unlimited love <br>
so perhaps we don't like to get aware of our limits (= inner
limits and/or OS limits)<br>
<br>
but indeed: if we invite very widely or even aim at "Trump-ists"
and, for instance, at a OS 50% of the participants happen to
be,that sort of very new participants, the spirit of OS perhaps
have no chance to be really present, so it will be no OS. So these
persons wouldn't even imagine what is OS!<br>
But nobody can guess what proportion may give a critical mass in
each different circonstances, and it would be vain to try how to
control that!!!<br>
<br>
So i think we have but one way: let things happen, trying nothing,
giving up ends and means<br>
more and more people will progressively participate and feel the
effects of OS, relax their soul..."progressively" can be very
fast! <br>
<br>
i mean, if it occurs that in an OS people have all the same points
of vue, the same kind of ideas and purposes, then it's clear that
it's no more an OS; if it works really, the range of participants
will become wider and wider; so i would say<br>
<br>
a - it is most important to keep caring and loving feelings
precisely towards people who have agressiv, spiteful or scornful
attitudes (perhaps very rich and "powerful" persons get "bad"
because nobody is praying for them nor giving them true hugs), <br>
<br>
b - but let OS by itself achieve his mind; just pay attention to
avoide any restraining of, or diverting from OS: "do i / does
everybody feel really free to have any sort of ideas, to ask any
sort of question, to propose any sort of workshop? is there real
freedom?<br>
<br>
sorry for writing long AND in this awful english... <br>

Are those who have thus far repressed similar

Because: if he is not, if they are not, if those

Repression. It is similar to suppression in that a
thought or feeling or emotion is not expressed --
but in repression, we deny that the element even
exists. <br class="">

<p class="">Donald Trump has said what some
people here in the USA (and elsewhere in the
world) have also been saying and feeling.
These are the words of fear. Unfortunately
they are also the words of a demagogue,
seeking to play upon the fears of others.
That there is danger is clear, but an
infinitely greater danger is that we
sacrifice our essential humanity to our
fear. Sealing our borders, closing our doors
and windows... we close our space. And while
it may appear safer, that is an allusion.
Life cannot be lived without space to live
in. We are no exception.</p>

<p class="">Recently we have been celebrating
the warmth and depth of this global
community. It is a wonder. But the beauty of
this community is not an inherent gift, I
believe. Rather it is the reflection of what
we do. Opening Space. Opening space is not
magic. We did not invent it. It is not even
complicated. At root level it is simply
inviting people to be fully who and what
they are, to greet each other and to enjoy
the space. We can do it. We can invite
others to do it. And now is the time.</p>
