This Caritas Path to Peace shows us the way forward. It serves as a Waymarker on the path toward human caring and peace on earth. It is an inspired work which ushers in the collective evolution of humankind, toward a new consciousness, which unites and transcends time and space and previous ways of thinking about our life and relationship with our self, each other and Mother Earth. It heightens our awakening of the great change needed at this hour for sustaining humanity at this very point in human history. Ancient wisdom from our ancestors, current wisdom from our enlightened leaders and wisdom seekers around the globe are proclaiming the time is now. The time is now, the hour is now for the great shift which we have been waiting for, moving us toward a moral community of caring and peace. We are reminded that we hold the vision to create a world free of war and violence; we as men, women, physicians, nurses and all health care workers and caretakers worldwide, are compassionate caregivers of creation of all of life; we hold visions of love and peace and miracles in our midst. We are here to serve and to co-create a new reality to protect and help reverse the fragility of our humanity and Planet Earth.The Caritas Path to Peace will help you create a new world for peace by utilizing the 10 steps of the Caritas Process of Jean Watson's Caring Science Institute.
