They discuss the awakening of consciousness that is happening around the world, and the need for humanity to reach a tipping point where we can make the leap into a higher way of being.
Q: Daaji recently talked about the Sanskrit word for meditation, Dhyana, and he said "Dhi" means ultimate wisdom, and "Yana" is a vehicle. I had this revelation that humanity may now be capable of having the ultimate wisdom while we receive the gift of being in this vehicle.
Yes, Yana refers to a vehicle or the means by which we reach our destination, which is ultimate wisdom. Meditation and also International Cities of Peace can be important aspects of Yana.. It may be a little optimistic, but I do think humanity has purpose in the universe, and it is to expand and extend and become perfect in our consciousness.
Q: The idea of consciousness seems to be happening in all different groups. In March we had a Global Spirituality Conference in India, where one hundred thousand people from diverse spiritual faiths and traditions came in person and also joined virtually. I believe there is a tipping point happening. This idea of consciousness is about everyone coming together and contributing to a resonance on the planet.
We create these waveguides-ways we can contribute and receive at the same time. International Cities of Peace is a waveguide, and communities can use International Cities of Peace as the ideal of a city of peace. No city in the world is an actual 100% city of peace, but they can use the ideal of a city of peace to work for a better community: have safety for their families, prosperity for the community, and a quality of life for everyone who is in that community.
That's our definition of peace, the consensus values of safety, prosperity, and quality of life.

Neelam Shivhare explores some of the great ancient texts of India on motherhood, compares the behavior of Kaikayi and Yashoda, and realizes the importance of removing fear from our hearts in order to nurture our children.For young women like myself, who are future mothers, I trust we are on the path of becoming selfaware and brutally honest with ourselves. We are creative beings, never forgetting the gifts with which we have been bestowed— the love and tenderness, natural instincts, and intuition to feel the right path. It all lies in the mysterious meanderings of the heart. Are we really listening to our hearts, or confusing the bombarding information on social media with reality?
