Soul Art Collage Workshop Ocean of Gratitude Cruise 2008

“We can never obtain peace in the World if we neglect our Inner World and don’t make peace with ourselves.” ~Dalai Lama

Jane Young has created this lovely movie combining both Soul Art Collage Workshops I presented on the February 22nd and 23rd, 2008’s Ocean of Gratitude Cruise. Participants including the men in each workshop expressed enthusiastically, “Soul Art Collage is fun, relaxing and greatly appreciated the ways creating their Soul Art Collage brought everything they had experienced and learned throughout the week together into a "take home" piece of art as a daily reminder!” A reminder to focus positive with infinite love and gratitude…..Our doing so strengthens Good Hado vibrations in us and our environment.

The Soul Art, Journal, and Collage Workshops I facilitate are positive and a wonderful unique reflection of the many ways synchronicity unfolds in harmonious flow with Hado Vibrations.

◊ Soul Art offers participants an opportunity to journey within to connect with the real You. We begin our creative journey with a meditation that incorporates the Chakra colors as we connect to the uniquely creative child within all of us. Then while listening to beautiful inspiring music whether one has artistic talent or is a novice they will discover the joy of freely expressing their soul's artist with medium of choice; watercolor, pastels, pencil, charcoal.

◊ Soul Art Journal Collage provides participants an opportunity to observe and to ponder and to visualize, and to remember. Combining journaling and collage is a mixture of intuition, imagination and creativity that reflects one's inner self and nourishes the soul. It is a process in creation that becomes a visual journal that speaks from the soul of the many-faceted self as your unique story unfolds...

What I love about collage is that everyone feels comfortable, it is individual and there simply is no right or wrong way to collage.

◊ Soul Art Collage celebrates participating in life with the attitude of infinite love and gratitude encompassing the flow of Good Hado vibrations. I reference Dr. Masaru Emoto’s healing work with water and how understanding our link to water, the interconnection between ourselves and our environment empowers us to be the change we want to experience. Participants create an effective, focused visual aid that embraces positive intentions in all areas of life that they are able to connect with daily enables them to manifest goals, dreams, and aspirations.

Visit to Self-Realization Fellowship Lake Shrine

As I make mention in previous posts I have made some wonderful synchronistic heart connections through the online networking I do in shining my light for God. I first met Kevin Reid via the online Peace Portal Ning network. We share a similar passion. Gandhi-“Be the change you wish to see in the world."

After February 11th Resource Fair in Los Angeles Wayne and I had several days to visit our daughter Heather and Kevin invited us to join him at the beautiful ten-acre Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF) Lake Shrine in Pacific Palisades, California. It was a beautiful afternoon and when sorting through the photographs I felt guided to have Jane Young http://www.joy-tothe-world.com/ create a lovely movie to honor this ideal setting and sacred place for quiet reflection and meditation created by Paramahansa Yogananda (1893 –1952) http://www.yogananda-srf.org/

It was a most delightful afternoon walking the shoreline path of the natural, spring-fed lake discovering its Gandhi World Peace Memorial containing a portion of Mahatma’s ashes and the picturesque chapel housed in an authentic reproduction of a 16th-century Dutch windmill where we took time to sit in silent reflection with infinite love and gratitude. In 1950 at the dedication of Gandhi’s World Peace Memorial Sri Yogananda said: “We must recognize the unity of mankind, remembering that we are all made in the image of God. There must be world brotherhood if we are to be able to practice the true art of living. This shrine has been created for all religions, that all may feel the unity of a common faith.”

Kevin Reid’s passion is to inspire more unity, love and joy in the world. He journeyed for nearly two years with his brother Jimmy to produce a song he wrote called “WE ARE ONE—A World Anthem.” The production evolved to include over 200 people from more than 30 countries; a diverse range of professional artists and wide array of everyday people. You can hear the anthem, read the story behind its creation and view pictures of all people involved at http://www.aworldanthem.org/index.html On November 11, 2007 Kevin launched initiative to establish a internationally recognized “World Unity Day” by releasing a open letter to the world with the following excerpt:

“I envision a day set aside by humanity to further the cause of world unity.

· A day embraced by individuals, communities and nations throughout the world.

· A day to celebrate and rejoice in the rich cultural diversity of the human family.

· A day to help establish a foundation upon which future generations can build a world where differences are honored with respect and love.

· A day where we stand side-by-side, hand-in-hand and proclaim that we are one global family!”

To sign the “Declaration of World Unity” petition, http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/establish-international-world-unity-day.html Kevin is seeking 1,000,000 signatures to represent all American states and all 192 nations. As soon as this is achieved, he will address the U.N to establish a “World Unity Day.”

Blessings of all things good always in all ways with infinite love, respect, gratitude, and peace, Eveline Maria
