The last months we have organised a "World Peace Meditation" every last sunday of the month.
A number of people, me included, have experienced wonderfull meditations because of this, and hopefully we will have influenced the collective conciousness of the world in a positive way
Keith said in the last thread:

Since I am "a spiritual being having a human experience," I often find myself falling "asleep," being unconscious, and identifying "me" as this "human experience." As such, I find that the "gentle & kind" nudges and suggestions like I receive on this forum assist me in "staying awake," in being conscious.

and this triggered an idea with me.
The human race is made out different levels of conciousness. Every person has an ego, but is also a part of the collective awareness, or so we are told by people who experience enlightenment on a daily basis.
Eckhart Tolle sais that we have to change ourselves as well as the society we live in, in order for the human race to survive.
According to different calenders and astrology's a change will be set for the entire human race in december 2012 (Mayan calender) where something will happen that will change human conciousness, "forcing" us to go to a next level of conciousness.
I have no idea what to think of these "facts" but it is my belief that enlightenment is that new conciousness they are talking about, and I see no harm in reaching it before 2012
It is common knowledge that Zen meditation "works" better when performed in a group, and Eckhart Tolle sais that " As a log just starting to burn will burn brighter in the presence of a large fire, so you can reach enlightenment faster in the presence of an enlightened teacher ".
So, I want the next peace meditation, the last one of this year, to be a bit special.
I would love to see all of us, instead of just focusing on world peace for meditation, focus on raising our collective conciousness.
I think it would be best to just think about the other forummembers, and how their awareness is growing at the same time as is yours, that distance and time are not important anymore, that we can make a "field of awareness" between ourselves.
That way we will have a group of aware people all over the world who will "make the logs in their presence burn brighter" simply by being around them !
This will indirectly bring world peace anyway
What do you guys think, will we be able to raise our levels of awareness as a next step towards enlightenment as a group ?
