No matter the religion or the meditation type: it is the will power that is important. Just positive thinking is needed (love, light and peace). Hate and aggressiveness never bring harmony. Those who practice visualization can imagine light rays that bound all human beings to each other to form a white sphere around the planet. Those who think in term of energy would ask God to pass part of his Energy through them to allow his Love to spread out on the planet. Those willing to ask assistance to light entities may adress Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed, Vishnu or others: they all are with us. Those who feel compassion for Gaia (Earth conscious) should send her all their love. Those who prefer to think can conceive scenarios without violence to solve this conflict in a peaceful way. Every ways are good when intentions are sincere. Simultaneousness is important to increase the efficiency of this event. It is also suggested to pray or meditate in small groups. All those oasis of light will merge together in a common effort. Please note the hour difference: 9 00 p.m. (Eastern time: New York, Montreal) 8 00 p.m. (Central time: Chicago, Winnipeg) 7 00 p.m. (Mountain time: Denver, Calgary) 6 00 p.m. (Pacific time: Los Angeles, Vancouver) A session will take place in Europe at 7 00 p.m. (Greenwich time). Please distribute this message before Wednesday (photocopy, FAX, phone, radio, computer network) Example: call 5 to 10 people and ask them to do the same. -- ============================================= = Jonathan Franco, (514) 342-2108 = = (514) 343-6111 Ex 3969 = ============================================= [I hope no one finds this offensive. Calling Christians to join those of other faiths in prayer seems consonant with the purpose of this group, though this particular call has a certain new age flavor to it... --clh]
