THE PEACE INTENTION EXPERIMENT(September 14, 2008)
A Video by YUBUPA! (with music!)
The same physiological response in humans has been documented whether it is through prayer, meditation, or simple relaxation techniques as described by Dr. Herbert Benson!
When Dr. Herbert Benson introduced this simple, effective, mind/body approach to relieve stress in The Relaxation Response twenty-five years ago, the book became an instant national bestseller. Since that time, millions of people have learned the secret of the relaxation response--without high-priced lectures, drugs, or prescription medicine. The tremendous success of this approach has turned The Relaxation Response into the classic reference recommended by most health care professionals and authorities to treat the harmful effects of stress.
This revitalizing, therapeutic approach, discovered by Dr. Benson and his colleagues in the laboratories of Harvard Medical School and its teaching hospitals, is now routinely recommended to treat patients suffering from heart conditions, high blood pressure, chronic pain, insomnia, and many other physical ailments. Requiring only minutes to learn, and just ten to twenty minutes of practice twice a day, the Relaxation Response has proven to be one of the most effective ways to relieve the tensions of modern-day living for a richer, healthier, more productive life.
INTRODUCTION
After participating in this experiment, it became obvious that as a model, the experiment could be adapted to other purposes. Thus a comment was written, "The Peace Intention Experiment and A Better Community for All (ABC4All)." CLICK! Read the comments here!
Lynne Taggart's Peace Intention Experiment for Sri Lanka has been completed. CLICK! Learn more!
In fact, an INTENTION MEDITATION was created, based on the Intention Experiment, to coordinate a focus on the SAFETY of Brian McClure and Michael Langevin and all involved in the GREAT JOURNEY TO AFRICA. This began 09/04/08 and ended 09/18/08, thus overlapping by 4 days with the Peace Intention Experiment. Simultaneously, as the focus on Sri Lanka occurred, many were also involved with concentrated focus and lighting of candles for the INTENTION MEDITATION.
Now it is possible for a similar INTENTION MEDITATION to take place for ANY concern in the world. Send a message to ABC4All, and that focus can become an INTENTION MEDITATION by those who care, including lighting a candle as a way to keep the focus. Many report the action of lighting candles to be very consistent with meditation, prayer, relaxation, concentration, etc. all typifying what is possible with the use of sheer thoughts. Thus we encourage any ABC4All Mentor to submit a request for an INTENTION MEDITATION, and that request will be circulated via the ABC4All Group Email at TIG. Any questions? Just CLICK! Email ABC4All!

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, or not to anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.
-- Buddha
"Intention" is a deliberate decision to create. It is premeditated; it is planned. It is not a wish, hope, or worry. It is a decision, made with purpose, to produce something. It is a force unto itself. When your awareness is focused during intentional meditation practice, you are operating from a place of effectiveness and calm assurance
Meditation practice alters your vision, both physically and spiritually. During meditation practice, many people begin to experience light within. Without an inner light, we are blind. Plant the seed of meditation and reap the fruit of peace of mind. Meditating on an event that is going to happen, and visualizing it as you want it turn out, have the power to mould it according to your thought. Concentrate on your consciousness and find out what it is. You may be surprised at what you find.
Everything is based on mind, is led by mind, is fashioned by mind. If you speak and act with a pure mind, happiness will follow you, as a shadow clings to a form.
Remember always that you are just a visitor here, a traveller passing through. Your stay is but short and the moment of your departure unknown.
Therefore sit and meditate with a thought"Do not ask for less burdens, instead more strength to bear all the burdens" And The moment you go in, all connections with the outside world are broken; all bridges are broken. In fact, the whole world disappears.
An important foundation in this understanding: You get in life what you focus on. Focusing on the miseries of your life will only bring you more misery. If you turn your attention to the joys of life, to those things in life that you can appreciate, then you will receive more joy. Through practicing good meditation techniques you can develop strong, positive focusing skills.
Meditation is a wonderful means of finding peace, joy and happiness in your life. Learning to meditate easily and well is a key to finding success in all areas of your life. No one can make you happy; no one can hand you peace; and joy is illusive if you can't find it within yourself, through your own efforts. Not every moment in one's life is stellar and lovely, but every moment has in it an aspect of truth, of clarity and a seed of potential for whatever you want to create. Looking for the good, the balanced and forward-moving aspects in your life - and there are always reasons to be grateful and appreciative in even the worst of conditions - can break that momentum….So let's start now with the Intention Meditation..
Tips For Intention Meditation:
Create a focus on one image.
Think about one thought (your intention).
With perhaps some soothing music.
Unclutter your mind.
Relax into the meditation.
Create calm and self-centeredness.
Develop a contemplative mind.
When you are ready, prepare for your

Blessings are frequently used to help in coping when people are facing challenging times.
May everyone be happy and safe, and may their hearts be filled with joy. May all living beings live in security and in peace beings who are frail or strong, tall or short, big or small, visible or not visible, near or far away, already born or yet to be born. May all of them dwell in perfect tranquility. Let no one do harm to anyone. Let no one put the life of anyone in danger. Let no one, out of anger or ill will, wish anyone any harm.
Irish Blessing for Blessings and Happiness
May your troubles be less And your blessings be more. And nothing but happiness Come through your door. May the sun bring you new energy every day. May the moon softly restore you by night. May the rain wash away your worries. May the breeze blow new strength into your being. May you walk gently through the world and know its beauty all the days of your life. As I walk, as I walk The universe is walking with me In beauty it walks before me In beauty it walks behind me In beauty it walks below me In beauty it walks above me Beauty is on every side As I walk, I walk with Beauty. May the blessings of love be upon you May its peace abide with you May its essence illuminate your heart Now and forever more.... Help us to keep the vigil for healing in sacred space and holy time. We give thanks for those whose gifts and training empower them to care for the body; nurses, doctors, physical and respiratory therapists, those who prepare food and clean rooms, those who care at the bedside and behind the scenes. Bless all family members and friends who keep the vigil in prayer in waiting rooms and hospital corridors. Grant them your peace. We are all in need of your healing presence each day of our lives. Help us to watch, wait, and listen for your blessings in the midst of our healing journeys. May you see the light in the darkness during these challenging times. May you feel the loving presence of those who hold you in their thoughts and prayers. May your spirit find what it needs to sustain you on this journey. May you discover your inner strength and face all difficulties with dignity and grace. May you be filled with comfort, love, strength, grace and a lasting sense of peace.
