"'Let us pray for freedom peace in Burma and the world' - These ladies are part of a group called 'Prayer for Freedom'".


"'We wish all people and all creatures well-being, happiness and prosperity everywhere in the world'. This picture was taken at the end of the Burma peace rally in Trafalgar Square on Saturday, 6th October when the monks closed the event with a prayer and candle ceremony. Note the beautiful, serene expression on the face of the monk, second from the left".


"'I was lucky to survive and excape after being tortured in Burma 10 years ago. Please help the many thousands not as fortunate as me'. This inspirational and brave Burmese man is holding up the type of metal chain used on him and other prisoners for torture in Burma".

Give Peace a Chance II - Burma

As promised, here are two more images from last Sunday's Peace March for Burma in London. These photos were taken by Arvind Devalia.

Image one: "As well as Buddhists, there are Muslim people too in Burma. Please stop all killing- we are all one after all".
Image two: "We will remain courageous and walk for peace no matter how long it takes".

Tomorrow, Saturday the 6th of October, has been designated as an International Day of Action for Burma. See this page or this page for details of events that have been scheduled for tomorrow all around the world.

Give Peace a Chance

Today I'm posting two images sent in by Arvind Devalia from the March for Burma in London, UK (Last Sunday, the 30th of September).
Image one: "Such tranquility and peace on the face of a Buddhist Monk. How can anyone possibly want to harm such people? This was taken near the Peace Pagoda in Battersea Park".
Image two: "Even Burmese babies are joining in with their peace prayers". Taken in Trafalgar Square, before the beginning of the March.

More images from this event will be posted during the week.
