Operation Pebbles: A Manifesto Of Compassion: How Community Action Can Make The Invisible Hand Visible

Operation Pebbles is about channeling the energy and compassion of people and channeling it in collective pools from which the community can draw at times when needs are high. Each time a pebble is thrown in a lake it causes a rippling effect, which by itself is limited and will disappear. When joined with other pebbles, the pattern expands, and when we synchronize our pebbles, amazing patterns just may appear. This lake of Ripples can become a reality if enough people take action, large and small, and throw in their own pebbles. As pebbles are added to separate puddles, ponds and lakes, the ripples will flow out to merge with other patterns. If these patterns can then combine, they will in time reach every person and envelop them in a perpetual pattern of compassion. This slim volume discusses the core issues succinctly, the theories, the plan, the obstacles, the costs, the risks, the rewards and so forth.
