Here is a short summary of the meeting on 7th June.
Rudolf Schneider guided the meditation on planetary synthesis, adding the Golden Rule as a seed-thought. We then shared ideas about various service activities for the welfare of humanity and the planet. Here is a short overview, arranged according to the fields of service of the 10 seed-groups.
Susana Acle told us about a group meditation for the dissipation of glamour in which she participates with a group in Brazil and Bolivia. The meditation is available in Spanish and Portuguese (seed-group 2: trained observers).
Marjolijn Snippe told us about the initiative https://oneshared.world/, which proposes a "Pledge of Interdependence" which anyone can sign on their website (seed-group 5: political organizers).
Rudolf mentioned that we should promote the teaching of English for all children of the world, to allow everybody to communicate in a common language (seed-group 4: educators).
Jennifer Viloria mentioned an initiative she has started in the U.K., together with others, aimed at enabling people to invest their capital in a way that is beneficial for the poor and for the environment (seed-group 9: economists and financiers).
Nikita Dubrova talked about the possibility of using bitcoin mining equipment to generate heat for homes and to help finance the World Marshall plan designed by Pieter Kooistra (seed-groups 7 and 9: scientific servers, economists and financiers). He also stated that he thinks the 18th Sustainable Development Goal should address the issue of artificial intelligence.
Lisinka Ulatowska mentioned that the Commons Cluster is just starting a new phase and that they will be glad to have the participation of those who are interested. The Commons Cluster has a mailing list, on which you can request to be put by writing to Taede Veenstra (taedev at gmail.com) (seed-group 5: political organisers).
Another decision taken was to invite all IPS friends and co-workers to participate in these meditations on the first Sunday of the month. An invitation will be sent to our entire mailing list and the meetings will be announced on the IPS website.
The meetings will continue to be held in English, but if any participants finds it difficult to speak in English, Alice can help with translation from French, German, Portuguese or Spanish.
The Lucis Trust and the Arcane School, in co-operation with Units of Service in Russa, invites you to a series of meetings that will be held in Moscow and Saint Petersburg.
Christine Morgan - the president of Lucis Trust - and Mintze van der Velde - the director of the Geneva Center - will be representing the Arcane School and the Lucis Trust.
We live in challenging times. Ancient habits of separative thinking in combination with the rapidly crystallizing forces of the Piscean Age are creating significant barriers to the incoming energies of Aquarius. There are many challenges to overcome in order to usher in the synthesizing energies of the Aquarian era – an era in which Light, Love and Power will restore the Plan on Earth. Towards this end, tremendous potencies are currently being directed towards enlightened thinkers by the Spiritual Hierarchy, and every esoteric server can make use of them in the great task of lifting humanity out of the current world turmoil. During this transition period, it is vital that all who are drawn to the spiritual path enhance their ability to work with these higher energies and serve the Great Work of building right relationships in all areas of life.
Drawing on the esoteric teachings in the books by Alice Bailey, themes to be discussed at these public meetings will include the nature of discipleship and service in these challenging times; the work of bridging between the personality and the soul; and the concept of group consciousness. We will also be exploring the challenge of building right relations in terms of the inner work of meditation and study, and its relevance to the national and international life in such fields as economics, sustainable development and environmental health, religion and education
