 Report and Proposals to the World Subud Association By Daniel Cheifetz, WSA Chair Preface I can't imagine a group of people working with more sincerity or with a greater overall effort than this World Subud Council has worked. My conclusions come out of this mutual effort. I am quite optimistic that there are a number of practical and specific things that can be done in our common effort to renew the spirit of Subud, and I make some suggestions toward that aim. This is a Report and Proposals to the World Subud Association (WSA), which will meet at its Congress this Austrian summer in Innsbruck. The Report and Proposals are based on the 2001 World Congress resolutions, the experience of the World Subud Council (WSC) over the last four years, and what we have heard from Subud members around the world. While this Report and Proposals has been shared with, and influenced by, the WSC, it primarily comes from me as the chairperson of the World Subud Association. The Report is my summary of our situation as it is now – a situation that calls for change and improvement in our Subud association. The Proposals suggest an experiment in change. I do not think that we have to throw away our organization. I believe that we should work within the framework that Bapak gave us, and tend to the development of its content. But what we have now is like a garden that needs pruning, weeding, watering, and more light for it to be healthy and grow according to the reality of our world and the needs of all Subud members. We can do this with care and honesty, respect, courage, and love. We can do it from our receiving and with our action. That way, we will be able to really develop the movement of life that is our garden, and trust that whatever is not appropriate will not choke our growth. http://www.subud.net/img_upload/f466e5f350eb72b1d4b3cafce2a49378/Report_and_Proposals_4.pdf
