For the United Nations global road safety week, an evening programme was held including world peace meditation, a talk about leadership for road safety via Skype by BK student Anouschka from Saint Maarten, and sharing from everyone about their contributions as a leader for road safety.
The BK students of St. Kitts started with a one-week practice to consciously check the impact of people, nature, news, sounds, atmosphere, animals, movements, opinions, anything … on oneself. The practice for the week was: How do I use the power of tolerance, the power to adjust to respond? (not react) How do I conquer the negative impact it has on everything within — thoughts, speaking, attitude, behavior, emotions, feelings, mind, intellect? Am I the embodiment of the power to tolerate? What do I need to pay attention to, to be able to tolerate/ adjust? Keep a chart. After the evening meditation, everyone shared a success story.
