A Collective Call for Peace in 2008

Hello and thank you for visiting Critical Mass 11:11.


Last week while I was attending a New Year's Eve retreat
in Southeast Louisiana I sat beneath a very large, old and
wise oak tree. It was there that I was guided to start this group!

The concept is very simple, yet I feel it will have a very profound
impact as more and more individuals join, reaching a critical mass.

As Osho stated so profoundly:
"Only when there are many people who are
pools of peace, silence, understanding,
will war disappear."

During my meditation I witnessed that each one of us has a bright light
within. When we focus our awareness on peace, love and happiness
our light begins to shine even brighter.

Its brillance begins to envelop our very being. It grows
brighter and stronger with every peaceful thought and by
practicing acts of loving kindness towards ourselves and others.

As we interact with other souls, our light adds to theirs. Sparking
and feeding off one another, an interconnected, glowing network
is created. Together it has a wider-reaching, synergistic effect.

As I was surrounded by 30 like-minded people bringing in this
new year with grounded intention and peaceful thoughts,
I could feel our group's network growing stronger each day.

During meditation I kept seeing this network extending beyond
our retreat group, reaching out to the corners of each of our
individual lives. The glowing network of peace emminated from
each of our heart spaces and touched everyone we met throughout
our daily activities.

The rapid pace at which this peace spread was fascinating and thrilling.
The more people we each interacted with, the wider our circle of influence
became. I saw the energy spreading through our neighborhood, to surrounding
neighborhoods, to the entire city, then the state, the region, the country and
ultimately the world. The Earth was glowing under a web of peace!

There are no longer 6 degrees of separation! We are all connected.
By focusing on peace within ourselves, the world will become more peaceful.
Would you like to join other like-minded people in making 2008 a more peaceful year?

I look forward to hearing from all of you soon.

Om Shanti!
Peace,
