Thank you to all our Founder members for the suggestion for us to organise this beautiful occasion to celebrate our First anniversary were the whole family members of GICAS including anyone interested to join us are welcome!! as you can all participate from the comforts of your home..,
Our conversation with members of GICAS in our creative lounge has opened our eye to look at the full circle of Life and how every decision we make can impact us and all the people that are close to us. This also includes our family and friends as members of GICAS. Every day we come here to our Creative, Meditation & Poetry lounges to share our genuine concerns and views, whether it is about Art.., or simply to acknowledge that we are alive.., sometimes we maybe having a good day the other days we have when everything keeps going wrong and nothing go as planned.
Before we can help other we have to clear our own minds and look to bring perfect balance to our lives. Therefore these situations are for us to stop and question as artists we should be more in tune and sensitive of nature, changes of seasons, light.., colour.., as true observer of Life.., as a true artists for the humanity and mankind.
We are pleased to hear from members wanting to organise an event to celebrate our first anniversary with a World Peace day meditation program that could influence and bring healing from our own efforts.
DATE AND TIMES
Our Foundation day is 19 August 2012, therefore confirm the following date and times to organise the whole family of GICAS and our guests to join us on Sunday 25 August international UK times from 11-30am to until 3-00pm. Everyone participating to join us between these times we all could all link together around the globe to complete the healing and peace meditation as our joint contribution. For this to make a big impact we each have to complete our own individual program of minimum of 20 – 30 minutes seating quietly on a comfortable chair, a place where you will not be disturb.
OPTIONS
For members who find it difficult to concentrate to use the option 1 visualization technique of closing the eye imagine you are at a place were there is water flowing over waterfall or looking at the waves at the seaside and enjoy the movement and sound of water to settle and relax the mind.
The second option is the breathing technique to following the instruction:
Sit comfortably and close your eyes. Take a few moments to “simply be”. Notice whatever is being experienced in the moment — sounds, physical sensations, thoughts, feelings — without trying to do anything about it. Continue like this a little while, allowing yourself to settle down.
Now bring the attention to the breath. Simply notice the breath as it moves in and out as the body inhales and exhales. Notice how the breath moves in and out automatically, effortlessly. Don’t try to manipulate it in any way. Notice all the details of the experience of breathing — the feeling of the air moving in and out of the nose, the way the body moves as it breathes, etc.
The mind will wander away from the breath — that’s fine, it doesn’t matter. That’s a part of the meditation! When you notice that you are no longer observing the breath, easily bring your attention back to it.
Let all of your experiences — thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations — come and go in the background of your awareness of the breath. Notice how all of your experiences — thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations, awareness of sounds and smells — come automatically and effortlessly like the breath.
After a settling down with your breath technique feeling calm and peaceful to gradually move to introducie a deeper visualization technique of seeing light flowing around the body – the colour of light being Blue moving up and down from the head to your toe as you breath in and out.., all this should be done without any effort just relax and enjoy the experience..
If you would like to try doing your own practise exercise that will be good to help you settle down and understand the process and ask any questions that comes to mind before the BIG DAY. If we use our communication medium of our meditation lounge this would be useful for all the members to share each other experiences.

As I think of this gesture for peace two great icons come to mind, Gandhi and Martin Luther King. My meditation would be that such a person is born to every country in the world within my life time and that we all come to understand the commonality of human aspiration for freedom and peace transcends all cultures.

FOR ALL TO THRIVE — POEM
The foxes are in the hen house
The economy’s in a dive
We need to find what on Earth it takes,
For all of us to thrive.
We gave away our money power
To bankers who serve their greed,
By sucking off the real wealth
And putting us all in need.
Right and left each make their case
For control of government force,
But neither has worked because it
Violates liberty, of course.
There’s a pattern by which the Universe
Stays whole and unified
With which we’re learning to align
And by which all can thrive.
And we are each that pattern
And every atom, seed and sun.
Our still centers aren’t just connected,
They are, in truth, all one.
Mystics of many ancient tribes
Understood this pattern and showed
This knowledge in their pyramids
I Ching, Kabala and other codes.
When we spin out of this vortex
When we pull on life or shove
We miss the bliss we’re here for,
The experience of love.
Our macho ways of tapping the force —
Of explosions we then try to control —
Must give way to harmonic resonance
Where all systems can remain whole.
Our radioactivity
Is the death side of the force
We need to ride the in-wave
To the genero-active source.
The ETs have us in quarantine
While they’re trying to keep us alive
In the crops they’re offering exquisite clues
On what we need to know to thrive.
Our true compass is integrity
Where the only relevant spin
Is not more lies and scamming
But to true up the vortex that we’re in.
We do not need to act alone
In bringing real change to pass.
We can sign up for critical actions,
And move when there’s critical mass.
The secret is to do no harm
To let each be safe and free
Then all our systems can be well
In our journey through eternity.
The good news is… if we wake up,
We have all we need to survive
And working together with integrity
We truly all can thrive.

Hello to Sunil and all of the members around the world who have participated in our Globalization ICAS World Peace Day! Although, because of the time difference, I am a late starter I have enjoyed meditation today and visualizing World Peace! I send Love and Light to each of you and lots of warm golden light to encircle our world and bathe people in Peace, Love, Understanding, Harmony and Compassion. To each individual person, I send sparkling blue clear light to fill and energize each body with creativity! And Hugs from Laara!

Laera Your comment sums up my feelings. It was a wonderful day of enlightenment. Perhaps we should all do this move often. For me there is an 8 hour difference so I entered later than most of our wonderful friends.

I didn’t log into our site but I did the meditation. I hope that was ok.
The Meditation today was wonderful for me. I am not trained, but somehow I manage to meditate. What I felt today was soft waves of love, hope & creativity in the form of delicate colors moving , touching & learning,from each person. I always have a visual when I mediate, today I was seeing the fantastic 3D clouds that were always in the Nevada Sky. These clouds were the best I’ve ever seen & each time we went to the desert i was totally serene. I took about 1,000 photos in these restful, peacefull environments.

Meditation quieted my mind; I withdrew from the routine to face the future and experienced a mild breeze with fragrant surrounding gradually engulfing me. It remained for some time and I was not aware that my eyes were closed; The moments over and when I opened still the mild breeze persisted; as if I had the Grace descended from somewhere. I closed and became prayerful; Sunday evening was colourful with roving designs that joined me with the Fraternity.

Hi guys, I can’t leave you a moment that combined damage. Edgar, was a beautiful woman I would understand but a man, no. Seriously Fortunately all went well, this makes me feel happy. Meditation, for me it was the first time, at the beginning a little discomfort then I relaxed and my mind if emptied traveling in vacuum, as saying a sleep/awake, a beautiful esperinenza. Sunil I already answered to the question of Luli, I say that the line will go where heart, mind and honesty I must go. It comes back to Aristotle, I do study philosophy, in school I had a vote, it was not my forte. But I will and I will try to carry out the task. Thank you all and wish you a good week and I recommend not combined damage.
