As a nonsectarian organization, the Boundless Love Project generally avoids God-talk. We recognize that many people have been traumatized and persecuted by religious wisdom traditions, and to make our trainings inclusive, we keep them secular and nonsectarian. But in this post, we strike new ground by sharing with you what nonsectarian wisdom teacher Peace Pilgrim thinks about her direct understanding of God. We hope that both our theist supporters and atheist members find the talk relevant, useful, and inspiring.
Who Was Peace Pilgrim?
Learn about the incredibly courageous and wise wisdom teacher Peace Pilgrim. She was an extraordinary woman who was healthy, vigorous, and joyful as she walked penniless for 28 years. She owned nothing but a few simple items which she carried with her. She walked until given shelter, and fasted until given food. And she received these things without asking for them. She did all this so she could share her message of peace with others, which she summarized like this: “This is the way of peace: overcome evil with good, falsehood with truth, and hatred with love.”
