The Shift Movement

The Shift Movement - aims to link 700 like-minded people, from across South Africa and Namibia, in order to form an "Intention-chain" - the critical mass needed to bring about real change. As soon as we are all linked we will proceed with manifestation (via the net). We will meditate/create, in synchronisation, specific feelings e.g. feeling of compassion for so & so in order to bring about a change in that consciousness. When 700 people are in sync with regards to a specific feeling and have the same intention manifestation will follow.

The world, but perhaps more so South Africa, is having a 'Poverty Consciousness'. One example is the constant use of the word "struggle" by politicians and ordinary people. The conciousness of our people became that of 'one big struggle' and the idea then is that you have to 'struggle' in order to get what you want in life. This struggle consciousness was engraved further in the mind set of our people with leaders such as Nelson Mandela and others being jailed (in struggle) before they could become 'great'. When we take this argument further we will then begin to understand why crime and HIV are most prevalent in South Africa.

So an example of how we can contribute to a better consciousness in SA is to meditate on the feeling of freedom, abundance, peace, gratitude whilst visualising our leaders.

We also envisage two huge gatherings in South Africa during 2011 where a mass meditation will be performed and guest speakers from around the world will be invited. [Greg Braden, Deepak Chopra, Drumvalo Melchicedek, John de Martini are all considerations for this gathering).

"A human being is part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. We experience ourselves, our thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest. A kind of optical delusion of consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from the prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty... We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive." Albert Einstein
