Dear Friends for an Awakened World,

If you are reading this message, you share a common desire to provide people with inspiration and resources with which to create a more enlightened future based on spiritual, social and environmental awakening. We each have the benefit of extensive personal practice and social practice in encouraging this great consciousness shift.

Currently we have a situation where there are ample resources available with which to perpetuate conflict within humanity and between humanity and the Earth, yet where are the abundant resources for those who are aligned with a new way of being, aligned with our higher selves and Creation?

No one person or organization can do this, it will require new cooperative structures and processes to show the world that what we all have represented in our own unique ways represents the beginning of a new way of being.

We have the opportunity and the imperative to create new structure and processes for all of humanity who so choose, to consciously allow their innate nature as spiritual beings to come to the fore. From this we can create a truly enlightened future together.

The question before us is: How can we move the work we are all about to a greater level of influence and service on Earth? How can we work in concert to assist humanity's awakening to higher consciousness?

Suggested purpose and goals for this first gathering:

• To clarify the current situation
• To identify needs and wants
• To develop ways to achieve cooperation, synergy, and resource sharing
• To decide a course of action
• To set it in motion

Please continue reading An Urgent Call.

Feel free to contribute your suggestions. Thank you!
