The purpose of Walk for Values USA event is to bring awareness to universal human values - Truth, Right Conduct, Peace, Love, and Nonviolence. The walk will take place in downtown Plano on Saturday, May 9, 2009 beginning and ending in Haggard Park. Walk for Values USA is unique because unlike other walks, it is not a fund-raiser, protest, rally, or demonstration. Instead, it seeks simply to raise awareness, and it is open to everyone free of charge.
Concerned about increasing violence in our schools, the growing threat of global warming, and declining levels of morale and confidence in our nation, friends and members of the Sathya Sai Organization are stepping out to make a difference by raising awareness to the importance of practicing Truth, Right Conduct, Peace, Love, and Nonviolence. These human values shape the way we think, feel, and behave. When these values are expressed, the result is kindness, compassion, honesty, empathy, tolerance, generosity, forgiveness, and a sense of security. Human values are universal and transcend the barriers of race, religion, culture, and ethnicity. They are the pillars of every society, and they are especially needed for creating and renewing a strong, proud, and confident United States of America.
The registration/
Participants of Walk for Values USA believe that these human values are worth walking for and hope to help raise the universal consciousness and awareness about the importance of practicing them in our daily lives. They have also pledged to “adopt a value” that they will practice themselves, to help bring about this awareness. Participants will carry signs and banners with the messages of truth, right conduct, peace, love, and nonviolence.
Walk for Values USA is organized by The Sathya Sai Organization of U.S.A - Dallas Center is part of a global effort to promote the practice of human values by providing opportunities to participate in community-based service activities.
