Namaste
Sangha is a sanskrit word that can be
translated roughly as "association" or "assembly".
Loosely it means one's spiritual
community. Whether you find this in a church, your
yoga studio, hiking with friends or in your lover's
arms; it is a place where
you feel connected to the whole. Identifying with a
greater sense of oneself is an important part of
health. In fact, Ayurveda says that the primary
cause
of disease is forgetting our true nature as spirit. The
focus of this issue is to nuture the sense of
commnunity by pointing out events in our local and
global community that bring us together with like
minded souls. Click here to learn about building
community.
May all beings be with Peace,

The universe comes to the rescue when a group of
friends decides to step outside the lines of everyday
existence. Armed with only a digital video camera, a
list of questions and a dream... these suburban dads
set out to become independent filmmakers in search
of "the meaning of life". Miraculously, they are joined
in their quest by many of the world's greatest
spiritual leaders, authors, icons, and masters of our
time. The movie weaves the novice filmmakers'
remarkable adventures with the answers to life's
ultimate questions in a journey that just may
transform your way of seeing the world as "One."

Everywhere on Planet Earth
One minute of silence for peace
At 12 noon local time.
In 2001, all United Nations member countries passed
Resolution 55/282, which "Declares that the
International Day of Peace shall henceforth be
observed as a day of global ceasefire and non-
violence, an invitation to all nations and people to
honor a cessation of hostilities for the duration of the
Day...."
Everyone can take part by observing one Minute of
Silence for peace at 12 noon on September 21st in
our homes, schools, businesses, street corners, at
our computers - wherever we are. Anyone can also
plan to do something creative in their own, local
community or send a letter calling on their local
spiritual and political leaders to take a stand for a
day of nonviolence.
