Organize your own event
You can help this event by organizing a peace meditation event
in your congregation, neighborhood or community. The more people
participate, the better the chance to bring about fundamental
changes to human conciousness through critical mass. As Dr. A. T.
Ariyaratne, Founder of Sarvodaya, said, “the objective of this event
is not only to bring peace in the minds of people and in society,
but also to bring about a dynamic equilibrium in our own planet and
in the planetary system as a whole.”
You can organize a meditation event, a peace prayer or candle light
vigil.
Whenever possible, we encourage you to organize a simultaneous event
to coincide with the event in Sri Lanka. The meditation in Sri
Lanka will be held at 3 PM - 5 PM on October 2nd. 3 PM of October 2nd in Sri Lanka is
5:30 AM
Eastern Standard Time in the US. Wondering what will be the time in
your place? Convert the time with
World
Clock on timeanddate.com
Because
of the time difference, we recommend Sunday, October 1st, as an
alternative date in the US.
Sponsor the Event
Moving as much as 1/20th of the entire population of Sri Lanka can
involve tremendous expense as well as tremendous potential benefit
for the world. The more people who participate, the more profound
the impact.
Your can sponsor a Sri Lankan villager to attend this event at $10;
$50 could help a family; $2,000 could sponsor an entire village;
and $10,000 could help make it possible for hundreds of people to
attend.
