Nina's Paper: http://www.gcgi.info/2013-paris-papers/441-spiritual-activism-
From Nina's paper:
As a spiritual activist who reflects and connects, whose activism comes from the heart, these are a few tools and guidelines that may be useful to take action in the world to create positive change. Remember that compassion is the high standard, the watch word is "do no harm", and the universal golden rule is the guide. Spiritual is no longer a word of religion but rather of a universal understanding that we are one humanity and that w must treat ourselves in this manner walking forward.
