Geelong, Australia

At Geelong West Town Hall, more than 60 people took part in an SOPP ceremony. To begin, they honored the traditional custodians of the land and lit the Peace Flame, then held prayers from 13 different spiritual traditions and a prayer for Mother Earth. A dance group performed dances from India, and then participants were introduced to the Fuji Declaration and invited to sign it. All participants took part in a flag ceremony for peace in each nation. The ceremony closed with a talk from the Australian counsel of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers, a special prayer of oneness, and a global peace meditation.
