    Default 1789 volunteers needed. Dec 18th Visualization for US

    I'm looking for 1789 volunteers, to visualize a major change in the United States: from (what I believe is currently) the most destructive, imperialistic, malignant country inflicting the most violence and negativity onto the people of the world, into a country that ceases being destructive, ceases imperialism, and emanates peace, compassion, and love instead of violence and negativity.

    Actually, visualizing a change is not quite correct. I want to visualize this as having happened - visualize it as already being.

    { ^ the above was edited, from the original below:}
    Quote I'm looking for 1789 volunteers, to change the most violent and negative country in the world into the most peaceful and most positive country in the world. Actually, that's not quite correct. I want to visualize this as having happened - visualize it as being.




    Video: Gregg Braden - The Power of Visualization
    ====================================


    I'm as serious as I can be. I'm ready, willing, and able to do this.

    The square root of 1% of the population of the US.

    320 million * .01 = 3.2 million

    √3.2 million = (approx) 1789

    That number would even cover infants and others within the 320 million that are not supporting or experiencing violence and negativity, so 1789 should be enough of us.

    I am pretty sure Kimberley is going to smile. She has just been talking about (and interviewed someone regarding) this method of visualization

    Of course, I would love to enlist 8367 people, and visualize the change in the entire world. I'm not being "Ameri-centric" for my own benefit, but because the US is so terribly violent that if we can "only" get 1789 volunteers, then I would want to visualize the country that is inflicting the most violence becoming the country inflicting the least violence. Even this will take more than all of the 'active' Avalon members. I suggest that each person that agrees to do this try to connect up with a circle of friends (like maybe a yoga class) to multiply our numbers.

    Does about a 2-week lead time sound like enough time to organize, and decide what specifically we are going to visualize?

    Would this timetable below work out for most folks: on Sunday, December 18th, 2011 at:

    6:00am Los Angeles (UCT-8)
    7:00am Denver (UCT-7)
    8:00am Chicago (UCT-6)
    9:00am New York (UCT-5)
    11:00am Sao Paulo (UCT-3)
    2:00pm in London (UCT +0)
    4:00pm in Bucharest (UCT +2)
    5:00pm in Moscow (UCT +3)
    7:30pm in Mumbai (UCT +5.5)
    10:00pm in Perth (UCT+8)
    midnight in Sydney (UCT+10) ]
    { edited: time zone mistakes fixed - I think :~) }



    Can we get enough people to do this?

    Dennis

    Already on it!
    With enough participation, this will undoubtedly work, but still I would like to mention that by establishing coherence within one's own consciousness, by heart chakra meditation, one stands to increase one's effect substantially. So some lead time is good, to prepare for the activity when it comes.

    This is really a coincidence...or not. Apparently you picked it up.

    I suggested a book today to another Avalonian:

    Biocentrism: How Life and Consciousness are the Keys to Understanding the True Nature of the Universe
    - Robert Lanza M.D. -

    It is very beautiful and inspiring...Your post that is...the book is perhaps a bit more clinical in nature.

    I'm guessing that it is 8:00 AM EST instead of EDT. That is about two hours after I go to bed. I will stay up, set an alarm or something. Count me in.

    sounds great! what are we visualizing exactly? peace is pretty broad and may mean slightly different to different people... so what uniformed idea are we putting out there?

    perhaps a phrase we could all meditate on?

    maybe?
