Might just say I've been signed up with Avaaz for some time and they just send messages from themselves, which are quite few and far between and I haven't experienced junk mail as a result of signing up with them. Hoping this reassures folk on Gaia.

Dear friends across India and the world,

We're all feeling the shock of the awful attacks in Mumbai. All our hearts go out to the victims and their families.

The attacks were aimed at our people, our prosperity and our peace. But their top target was something else: our unity. If these attacks cause us to turn on each other in hatred and conflict, the terrorists will have won. They know that hatred and chaos feed on division. As radical extremists, their only hope of winning is by turning the rest of us against each other.

Let's deny them that victory. We're launching a message to extremists on all sides and all our political leaders, one that will soon be published in newspapers across India and Pakistan. The message is that these tactics have failed, that we're more united than ever, united in our love and support to each other, determined to work together against terror and call on our leaders to do the same. If millions of people sign it, our message will be unmistakable, click below to sign it and please forward this email widely:

It's time to speak out, let's do it together.

Thanks

Just a few hours after I light my candle from Sandy's link above, it took me a long time to find my candle as thousands have been lighting candles.

There are some beautiful photos and tributes
posted here and I am moved to tears with the emotion.
Candles and flowers and prayers for peace and for those
that have lost their lives in this tragedy.

My heart goes out to you dear Meenakshi, as you learn of people
you knew who have died, and I am so pleased this
peaceful gathering is helping to sustain you at this time.

Everlasting Candle for those who lost their lives
in Mumbai 2008

Every day, as I speak to friends and relatives, I hear of someone I knew, or knew of, who died. So this kind of peaceful gathering sustains me, and I see, also those who were directly or indirectly affected.

Thank you for this, friends.

Joining you.

Joining you all in offerings of light, flowers, prayers for peace, love, and light to all the departed souls, the bereaved, the grieving, those still in the darkness, and to the entire nation of India, the world, the Universe. Celebrating the heroes who demonstrated unconditional love, and remembering that we don't need to hate the people who had been 'responsible', but only to condemn their 'misadventure and misbehavior' and support the cause of finding solutions to the root of the world's problems.

This is a beautiful tribute Samme. Thank you so much for adding beauty to tragedy. I have started a candlelight vigil against terror today.

candlelight vigil against Mumbai terror attacks

All members of the Gaia community are invited to a candlelight vigil to honor the memory of those killed and wounded in last week's terror attacks in Mumbai, and to express their condemnation of acts of terrorism around the world and their solidarity with all those who are affected by it. The vigil will be held in Power of Light or any pod you are on, you are welcome to copy/paste this tribute… Dec. 2, 2008 around the world.

Light a candle.
