OM Gardens for Peace

Cultivating inner peace, community, and a deeper love for the Earth

What is OM · Gardens for Peace?

OM · Gardens for Peace LATAM is a seven-week pilgrimage across Latin America, rooted in a simple yet powerful idea: “PEACE BEGINS WITHIN EACH OF US”

Through the simple act of sitting together in silence, we will create spaces for connection in each place, alongside local people and organizations. It is both an outer journey and an inner one—an invitation to plant small seeds of peace, care, and kindness wherever we go.

Professional Workshops for Organizations

Throughout the week, we offer paid workshops for companies, universities, educational institutions, and organizations. These experiences help cover travel expenses and provide financial support for the pilgrimage.

Gardens for Peace

Over the weekend, we offer a free, community-centered gathering: a circle for silence, presence, and dialogue, a screening of The 7 Messages of OM, and/or the co-creation of a community garden.

The Intention

To continue weaving a network of Gardens for Peace, where both visible and invisible gardens can become spaces of beauty, silence, care, love, and inspiration. We believe meaningful change begins with small acts—and that when those acts are shared, they can create ripples of transformation far greater than we imagine.

How to take part

We co-create each Garden for Peace with local people and organizations, opening spaces for silence, beauty, and connection.

This may take the form of creating a garden together, or a more symbolic gesture—a shared circle of silence or a collective board where ideas, intentions, and reflections can take root.

Co-creating spaces of care

As a host or partner, you can take part in different ways:

Host people & organizations

The Latin America Pilgrimage is made possible by organizations that choose to host an OM workshop. As a host organization, you can choose the experience that best responds to the needs of your team or community.

Partner people & organizations

People and organizations who wish to support this initiative can contribute financially, offer spaces, help spread the word, or provide resources to make the next stage of the journey possible. Your support directly helps create new Gardens for Peace and enables small acts of kindness in each territory we visit.
