Your kids will be publicly introduced to Eastern religious paganism and the Dalai Lama at the “Seeds of Compassion Conference” by direct participation of your public schools. Now why does it not surprise me that heretics Desmond Tutu, Rob Bell and Doug Pagitt will be speakers at this conference.
They will even have a Yoga secession for children ages 6-10. How nice!
After reading what is going in the Emergent Movement and New/Age does any astute Christian still think they a Universal one world religion is not well underway?
Emergent Leaders and School Children follow “his holiness” the Dalai Lama to Seattle Commencing this Friday (April 11, 2008) the Dalai Lama, spiritual leader of the world’s Tibetan Buddhists begins a five day conference in Seattle. His sold out speeches, workshops and panel discussions are expected to draw capacity crowds totaling 153,000 at venues around the city from the Bank of America Center at the University of Washington, Key Arena, where the NBA Sonics play and mammoth Quest Field, home of the NFL Seattle Seahawks. It is expected that millions more will watch on television and over the Internet where the events will be webcast in twenty-four languages.
First, though the local media has nearly gone silent on this aspect of the story, local school districts are busing in school children to the events. Say what?
The conference promotion states “Seeds of Compassion Children’s Day (Monday, April 14) is a day for youth from all over Washington State to come together and share their expressions of What Compassion Looks Like™ and to learn how to grow their experiences of compassion from the leaders in the compassion movement, most notably His Holiness the Dalai Lama. There will also be multiple programs focused on children who will have booths set up at Seattle Center to invite children to get involved with compassion. Children will return by bus to their schools.”
In preparation for the event, local school children here are this week being taught visualization techniques and phrases such as “concentrate on being a hero. Now concentrate on being compassionate. Now visualize yourself as a compassionate hero.” No, I am not kidding. Nor am I exaggerating. This is just an exercise from New Age Buddhist philosophy being employed in the public schools. What is most troubling is that these 3rd graders won’t know that the next step is the introduction of Spirit Guides (demonic powers) and the majority of their parents are sitting at home enamored with the whole thing!
