Goodwill Meditation Group, East Sussex
Change is inevitable. It happens so slowly. It can easily be overlooked. The temptation of now is to become identified with the problems that beset us personally, nationally and internationally. These current calamities that challenge humanity invite us to give up and sink into a gloomy negativity. This foggy climate of unhelpful thought forms cloud our judgement and keep us separate from the wonder and awesome potential of LIfe that surrounds us. A spiritual discipline cultivates a worldview that can reveal our place within this web of life. With this recognition comes a commitment to make a difference. The change being a life lived in harmony with nature, a life lived with meaning and purpose.
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."
(Margaret Mead - Anthropologist)
It is common knowledge that prayer and meditation can condition an environment for the good and this is based on scientific experiment. "For a certain number of days, some years ago, a group of people made a circle around the city of Washington and meditated continuously for the period. Gathered unknown to itself within this circle of loving kindness, Washington changed. The statistics for that period in the city showed a remarkable and unprecedented decrease in violence and crime. The power of intention to bless is not some utopian fantasy; it can be shown factually to effect concrete and transformative action." - (John O'Donohue Benedictus - A Book of Blessings)

The Light of the World - The Principle of Goodwill. Goodwill can exist even where there is a fundamental disagreement. Are we able to maintain it in the fact of opposition and have we been successful in using it as a resolving power? Questions we can address at this month's meditation gathering. Remembering
"Goodwill produces an atmosphere in which co-operation flourishes."
