Guest guest Posted October 7, 2002 Report Share Posted October 7, 2002 I received this notice about James Twyman's upcoming trip to Iraq and a worldwide peace prayer. I wanted to pass it on for those of you who might want to join in his effort to promote peace and avoid war. (If I am not mistaken, Mr. Twyman was a guest and sang at the 2001 Peace Prayer Day in Espanola) Peace, Sukhmani Kaur Prayer Vigil: October 12, 1 pm New York time James Twyman invited to Iraq to Pray Peace >From James Twyman: As many of you already know, I have been invited to perform a concert for peace in Baghdad on October 12. Millions of people around the world believe that war is an inappropriate solution to our problems with Saddam Hussein, or any other international conflict. This is a chance to do something about it, to use the power of prayer as a catalyst for positive change. I hope you will forward this e-mail to your friends around the world. The goal is for millions of people to focus their prayers of peace at the same moment. We need your help to make this happen. This is the second time the government of Iraq has invited me to Baghdad when the threat of war seemed imminent. In 1998 millions of people from at least 80 countries focused their prayers on Iraq, and three days later a peaceful solution was achieved. This year the worldwide vigil is being coordinated with another international event called Earth Dance, a peace initiative being held in 106 cities around the world. (If you want information on how you can join the gathering in your city, go to EarthDance.org.) Over a quarter million people will gather in each city on October 12, and at 1pm New York time participants will join together in this prayer: We are one global family, all colors, all races, one world united. We dance for peace and the healing of our planet earth. Peace for all nations. Peace for our communities. Peace within ourselves. Let us connect heart to heart. Through our diversity we recognize our unity. Through our compassion we recognize peace. Our love is the power to transform the world. Let us send it out... NOW!! We are asking you to do the same. After you say this prayer aloud, either alone or with a group, FEEL the presence of peace in Iraq and the whole world. This feeling is the key to creating peace. Scientists have proven that our emotions influence events and even weather patterns, and we want to produce a wave of peace that will touch the leaders of our countries, as well as every person in the world. PRAY THE PRAYER, AND THEN GENERATE THE FEELING OF PEACE AT 1 PM NY TIME, OCTOBER 12. I will be with a group of people in Baghdad and we will consciously anchor these prayers into the earth there. You can also join me via the Internet by going to WorldPuja.org. I will have a satellite phone with me and will broadcast the prayer at the designated time, and World Puja will transmit my signal around the world. If possible, try to be with a group of people in your own home or church, joining me either online or in spirit. I also intend to send regular e-mails reporting the details of my trip to Iraq. If you were forwarded this letter and want to be on our mailing list, please follow the instructions at the bottom of this e-mail. Please keep me in your prayers, but more importantly, please join us in changing the world with the power of joined prayer.
