Rhymed Reflections
\n<\/i><\/p>\n
In 2002 when political scientist Glenn D. Paige the term NONKILLING proposed
\nto a conceptually profound, transformative evolution political science was exposed<\/p>\n
A conceptual specificity to the PEACE continuum was brought about
\nwhen, after Nonviolence (1915), \u00a0the Nonkilling dimension came out<\/p>\n
Learning to live nonkillingly can be variously realized
\nPrinciples and practices from the Center for Global Nonkilling are being universalized<\/p>\n
To consider Nonkilling a new word for a peaceful world is a simplistic perception
\nFor Nonkilling is a force for globalizing change that can give Humankind a wise direction<\/p>\n
Nonkilling can bring closer East and West
\nby helping educate citizens everywhere in how nurturing Nonkilling is individually and collectively best<\/p>\n
Nonkilling is not just a Human-improving Model to advocate
\nbut a deeper system of life-affirming-and-supporting in which Humankind to educate<\/p>\n
Let`s build constructive change by contributing (g)locally, as committed Nonkillers
\nand to a sustainable peace, nonviolence, and nonkilling let`s always be LIFE-willers<\/p>\n
