PRESS RELEASE: Living in America Musical

Spirituality & Inspiration

marsha writes "LOCAL INDIAN PLAYRIGHT, CHOREOGRAPHER & ACTOR DEBUTS IN HIS DANCE FOUNDATION’S PRODUCTION “LIVING IN AMERICA”, FEBRUARY 27 AND FEBRUARY 28, AT CHARITY RANDALL THEATRE.

Pittsburgh, PA, January 29, 2010—America is a land of immigrants, coming in waves during different periods of our nation’s history. Many of us have forgotten the experiences and emotions of our friends and family as they made the transition from living in their native country to “Living in America.”"

2010, A POWERFUL NEW YEAR!

Spirituality & Inspiration

Contributor writes "by Patricia Diane Cota-Robles
January 1, 2010

It is hard to believe that we have already completed the first decade of the New Millennium. I do not think anyone can dispute the fact that time is being accelerated. The unprecedented awakening Humanity experienced during the first decade of the 21st century was miraculous, but it will not hold a candle to the shift of consciousness that will take place during the second decade. This shift of consciousness will result in the unification of millions of Lightworkers, whose dedicated service to Humanity and the Light will change the course of history. From outer appearances this statement may seem too good to be true, but actually, it does not begin to adequately describe the wonders that are in store for Humanity and all Life on this planet. These monumental changes will begin in 2010, and they will unfold day by day until the patterns of perfection for the New Earth are physically manifest. If you have any doubt about that please meditate on the following Truth: “The Light of God is ALWAYS Victorious, and WE are that Light!”

Since the dawn of the New Millennium, Lightworkers around the world have been invoking Divine Intervention to assist with Humanity’s awakening and Earth’s Ascension into the 5th Dimension. For the past ten years the Earth has been going through an intensified cleansing process, that has pushed everything that conflicts with Heaven on Earth to the surface to be healed. This process is not complete yet, but enough of Humanity’s human miscreations have been cleared to begin the manifestation of the patterns of perfection for the New Earth. This is the next phase of the unfolding Divine Plan, which will be birthed with the New Year, 2010.

There are several celestial events that coincide with the birth of 2010. This is not by chance... "

Aparigraha: A New Economic Paradigm for a Culture of Peace

Socially Responsible Business

fernando writes "Dear Friends,
As you all know, on September 24th and 25th Pittsburgh will be hosting the meeting of the G-20. There will be demonstrations, protests, etc. to call attention to the plight of the poor and disenfranchised citizens of the world. But who will be offering a solution?

On September 24th Victor “Vyasa” Landa, yoga master, founder of the Shanti Yoga School of Life and director of Global Coalition for Peace will be coming to Pittsburgh to present an alternative to the economic systems that are creating the gross inequities and monumental problems that our planet and its inhabitants are now facing, an alternative that is presently being carried to other parts of the globe.

Vyasa and his team of economic advisors have created Aparigraha: A New Economic Paradigm for a Culture of Peace. Aparigraha is the Sanskrit word for non-greed or non-covetousness. The three main tenets of this system are:
* Abundance rather than Scarcity
* Cooperation rather than Competition
* Right Motivation rather than Personal Incentive
This is “an economic system that is designed in agreement with the Law –not man-made law but Cosmic Law or “the One Law, ” a system that “cultivates virtues such as love, cooperation and compassion that are the foundation of higher levels of consciousness.” "

News: The Age of Stupid Coming to a Theater Near Us!

Ecology and Environment

'The Age of Stupid' premieres in the U.S. on September 21st! It is screening in the Pittsburgh area at the West Showcase Cinemas (301 Park Manor Dr, Pittsburgh, PA 15205), starting at 7:30PM. Check it out and buy your tickets today!

The Age of Stupid -- Let's not get there!

Sometimes it takes the emotional punch that only a big screen feature film can pack to move people to take action on a long term crisis like climate change.

That's the kind of emotional punch that 'The Age of Stupid' will deliver when it comes out on September 21st.

'The Age Of Stupid' is an enormously ambitious drama-documentary-animation hybrid from the director of 'McLibel' and the producer of the Oscar-winning 'One Day In September'.

The film stars Oscar-nominated actor Pete Postlethwaite ('The Usual Suspects', 'In the Name of the Father') as an old man living in the devastated world of 2055, ...

News: From Plum Village: New version of Five Mindfulness Trainings Available

Spirituality & Inspiration

For fans of Thich Nhat Hanh and the work at Plum Village community, we wanted to inform that a revised version of the Five Mindfulness Trainings is now available.

The Five Mindfulness Trainings represent the Buddhist vision for a global spirituality and ethic. They are a concrete expression of the Buddha’s teachings on the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path, the path of right understanding and true love, leading to healing, transformation, and happiness for ourselves and for the world. To practice the Five Mindfulness Trainings is to cultivate the insight of interbeing, or Right View, which can remove all discrimination, intolerance, anger, fear, and despair. When we live according to the Five Mindfulness Trainings, we are already on the path of a bodhisattva. Knowing we are on that path, we are not lost in confusion about our life in the present or in fears about the future.

The revised Trainings are available at ...

Inspiring Quotes

"It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver."
— Mahatma Gandhi

"If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader."
— John Quincy Adams

"All of those for whom authentic transformation has deeply unseated their souls must, I believe, wrestle with the profound moral obligation to shout from the heart—perhaps quietly and gently, with tears of reluctance; perhaps with fierce fire and angry wisdom; perhaps with slow and careful analysis; perhaps by unshakable public example—but authenticity always and absolutely carries a demand and duty: you must speak out, to the best of your ability, and shake the spiritual tree, and shine your headlights into the eyes of the complacent. You must let that radical realization rumble through your veins and rattle those around you."
— Ken Wilber

Watch The Light Movie, by Mary Robinson Reynolds.

"Our task must be to free ourselves ... by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty."
— Albert Einstein

“The deed creates the doer.”

Great Quotes from Great Leaders (Movie)

Sustainable Living: It takes 90 years to grow one box of Kleenex, and three million tons of virgin forest every year. Please Choose RECYCLED paper products!

"Medicine is not the sacred body of knowledge I had previously thought. It is merely a collection of data points that have no relation to one another." —Dr. Mark Hyman: Author, medical consultant

What Is Enlightenment?: If you dare to take up the banner of enlightenment, you will be attacked from all sides. From the inside you will be attacked by your own mind and from the outside you will be attacked by everyone else's mind. Anyone who dares to succeed automatically presents a huge threat. If true freedom is going to survive within you, you have to be willing to fight for it. You have to have a sword in each hand at all times. One sword is for your own mind and the other sword is for everyone else's mind. You must be ready to use them. Anyone who wants to be truly free must be willing to stand alone in the truth. -- Andrew Cohen

"The most exquisite paradox ... as soon as you give it all up, you can have it all. As long as you want power, you can't have it. The minute you don't want power, you'll have more than you ever dreamed possible." -- Ram Dass: Spiritual teacher, author, and professor.

We were sent into the world to live to the full everything that awakens within us and everything that comes towards us. Real divinity has a passionate instinct for creativity and the fully inhabited life--the greatest sin of all is the unlived life. -- John O'Donohue

The doctor of the future will give no medication, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease. --Thomas Alva Edison, inventor and businessman.
