49 Day Peace Retreat

Anton M. Somlai

You are peace, you just don't always believe it. 49 Day Peace Retreat by Anton Somlai will help you build trust in your inherent loving-kindness nature.

The book was written in the build up to the second Iraq War. Somlai offers a new way of practicing peace.

From the introduction:  

"These invocations come from the basic premise that there is a way for us to stop hurting each other. This is a breviary of Buddhist meditations for peace. Regardless of the circumstances we find ourselves in we can touch the source of love and compassion." 

This book is used annually during a community Peace Vigil at the Original Root Zen Center, which was founded by Somlai in Racine, Wisconsin. The readings also help guide contemplative practices at the Zen Center.

Here's an excerpt:
