GLOBAL PEACE MEDITATION AND PRAYER DAY
Global Celebration of A New Dawn
2nd Timely Transformation Event, December 22nd, 2007
Another step toward 2012, the global “Embrace the Planet” Celebration
Thousands of individuals participated from the following countries:
Argentina, Australia, Austria, Bahamas, Belgium, Brazil, Cameroon, Canada, Ecuador, Germany, Guatemala, Guinea, Hungary, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Mongolia, Nigeria, Romania, Russia, South Africa, Spain, United Kingdom, United States, Uruguay
The Global Peace Meditation and Prayer Day, a joint event of the Club of Budapest and the World Peace Prayer Society was launched in 2007 in order to promote the Global Mind-Shift, the culture of peace, to help create a new era of humanity, a world based on love and harmony, a world in which all different races, ethnic groups, religions, cultures, traditions and customs are respected, and in which every individual and every nation can freely express their individual qualities, while living in harmony with one another and with all life on Earth.
Following the First Global Peace Meditation and Prayer Day on May 20, 2007, which took place with the participation of over one million people in more than 60 countries all over the world, on December 22, thousands of friends of peace gathered in all continents again, this time in order to greet the New Dawn of human consciousness, the New Dawn of growing light and hope, following the Winter Solstice, marking the shortest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.
Whereas the May 20 event focused first of all on large events with several hundreds or thousands of people gathering, meditating or praying at one location, this time, the organisers asked the participants to join the global prayer and meditation link individually or in smaller groups, creating a light-filled, harmonious and peaceful circle in their homes or outside in nature, to pray or meditate for the peace of the world around a candle, or similar symbolic representation of Light.
The event was celebrated in a number of ways in countries such as Argentina, Germany, Japan, India, Australia or the United States. The day’s program included a Sunrise Meditation and Prayer to welcome the rising of the New Sun to Celebrate A New Dawn of human consciousness, an Open Meditation and Prayer to celebrate A New Dawn at any time during the day, and a Global Link Teleconference to join voices from around the world, connected live by telephone and web-cast to pray for peace to prevail in every country on Earth.
We would like to express our deep gratitude to all participants for being with us, for sending bright and peaceful thoughts and energies to this global network of light and good will, and for contributing to the Global Mind-Shift, the big opportunity and responsibility of humanity to create a peaceful, harmonious and sustainable human world. |
