A study was conducted in Washington D.C. in 1993 by John Hagelin, PhD., wherein his team brought into the area a large number of people who were trained to meditate. When the group reached 4000 people who were meditating the city experienced a statistically significant drop in crime compared to expected rates based on previous data. They collaborated with local police, the FBI, and 24 leading, independent criminologists and social scientists from major institutions that used highly sophisticated research tools to control the variables. They predicted a 20% drop in crime and they achieved a 25% drop.

There lies a notion that beneath the physical levels of human existence is a unified field of universal consciousness. If we assume that at our core level of being we are connected in a unified field where we are all one, it becomes very easy to understand how we influence one another whether in a positive or negative manner.

Thank you Darci!!! Great example! 4000 meditating people could reduce crime with 25%: 4000 people in a city of about 580,000. When we do the math this may indicate that if one person focuses her mind and raises her vibrational energy 145 people in her environment will be energetically invited to do the same.

So, imagine if you and I would consistently focus our minds, create internal balance and raise our energy… what an impact we would have in our families and at work. Oh … we are doing that already. Yeah!!!

Let's support each other in being the change we (wish to) see in the world. Let's raise the love in ourselves so it will ooze out. But how do we do that? How do we stay focused? Thoughts?

So, how do we raise the love in ourselves? Well, one way that I have been using to help me see people, differently is to view them as spiritual beings rather than as human beings. When I do this judgement falls to the wayside - the limitations that I might see in someone by looking at them as a human being dissolves when I look at them as a spiritual being. Perhaps, this is over simplified. But, I have to say, it works for me. Just that one shift in my thought process instantly changes my view of someone that I don't know. I see the common ground … I see the connection we all have with one another easier when I view people without the exterior. But, I have to make a conscious effort to view people in this way. It does not come natural for me.
