The ART OF PEACE is a public radio program heard weekly on www.KCSB.org and KCSB 91.9 FM Wednesday evenings from 7-8pm. The Art of Peace focuses on social responsibility, community activism, and personal relationships as they relate to mindfulness and peace consciousness. "Learning to Listen" Philip Le Vasseur Raises Consciousness and Engages the Community with Art of Peace Tuesday, August 24, 2010 By Colin Marshall Phil LeVasseur is interested in many things, but none seem to get him quite as fascinated as what he calls heart awakenings. Its his own term, he explained to me when I sat in with him in the KCSB studio, but one that describes an immediately recognizable phenomenon. Your heart just speaks to you at a certain point, he said. Heart awakenings tend to precede ones major shifts in perspective, and thus ones major changes in life. LeVasseurs guests tend to have undergone heart awakenings at some time in their lives. His radio show, Art of Peace, is the product of one of his own. Christopher Lowman had a heart awakening. Here he was, this East Coast guy, wealthy, educated, but he felt like he wasnt making a difference, said LeVasseur. So he studied these Japanese healing techniques to cure the effects of trauma, then went to Rwanda and started working on the people who had been traumatized by war. He formed this whole group, Moving Towards Peace. Chris isnt a loud guy; at first, he didnt want to take a stand. But he was helping. B. Allan Wallace, a former Buddhist monk and current lecturer on Buddhism and the mind, also had a heart awakening. Heres a guy, a PhD, more brilliant than ten of us put together, as LeVasseur described him, and he wanted to become a Buddhist monk! He researches whats called contemplative sciencemeditationwhich teaches people to be still. You listen to him speak, and you cant help but settle down and be calm. He doesnt even necessarily talk about Buddhism as a religion now; he likes to compare it to Western psychology.
