I'm crazy nervous about this but at the same time really excited (what's a word to describe nervous+excited? my dictionary is not helping me right now).
There's no easy way to say this, but I will be speaking from the same stage as Richard Branson, Sean Stephenson, and even the Dalai Lama.
I couldn't believe it at first. I am literally bursting with happiness and feel so uplifted to be even considered to speak at the same event as these giants.
And as one of our 230,000 FinerMinds readers I'm hoping you might get a chance to attend.
Alright so these are the details. The event (some of you already know this) is called Engage Today. It's happening September 30th to October 3rd, this year and it'll be held in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
This isn't any ol' conference. It comes with intent and the purpose to affect change on a global scale. What's even more amazing is that you're a part of this change too. The whole goal of the conference is to bring together world geniuses under one roof to create a catalyst for economic, social, and environmental change.
And here's where you come in. This conference is a place for individuals to learn how to adjust their methods of thinking for a new world. This is where you'll learn to use your passion to make a difference.
If that wasn't enough, check out some of the people speaking at this event.
The Visionaries Speaking At Engage Today
- Richard Branson - this entrepreneurial genius will be sharing his insights on combining business and power to address some of the biggest problems of the world today
- His Holiness the XIVth Dalai Lama - he'll be speaking about the true meaning of "prosperity" and how you can use it to make global change.
- Bill Harris - the founder and director of Centerpointe Research Institute and star of The Secret. We featured Bill on FinerMinds a few months back and almost 2140 of you rushed to his site to receive his free meditation CDs.
- Sean Stephenson - will be talking about finding your unique voice despite any personal or physical limitation and why the only thing that can hold you back is yourself.
- Dr. Stephen R. Covey - author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Dr. Covey will give you what it takes to be a leader to change the world and yourself as well.
- President F.W. deKlerk - this former president of South Africa will be sharing his courageous story of ending apartheid and releasing Nelson Mandela after 27 years of imprisonment.
- Janet Attwood - co-author of The Passion Test, Janet will help you rediscover your p
assions.
Not to mention a special evening concert with Bryan Adams and K.D. Lang.
So you know how I feel about this whole event. Now I want to know how you feel about it. Who would you want to meet the most and why. For me it was always Richard Branson. His stance on social entrepreneurship and all of his efforts to help the environment and society are immense but now I can't wait to meet the His Holiness the XIVth Dalai Lama. So what I want from you is this:
If you could meet one of these amazing global leaders,
WHO would it be and why?
Drop a comment below and share your thoughts. Just imagine the conversation and what you could learn from them.
Cheers,
Vishen Lakhiani
P.S. We've got an amazing interview coming up with Greg Habstritt, the founder of Engage Today. So stay tuned for it.
P.P.S. Soon I'll also be sharing with you how you can join us at Engage Today, and will reveal to you the amazing surprises waiting for all the early-birds. Looking forward to see you at this very special event!
I would like to discuss my thoughts as a civil engineer on physics and maths, to make the universe a better place improving on living beings lives with a leader in that area.
I would like to know does Richard Branson have any connection with BILDERBERG
I would most like to meet the XIVth Dalai Lama because his work is about the inner life of each of us versus all that goes on outside us in terms of materialism, manifestation, and in the world, etc. I am most interested in the heart of this wonderful human being.
It would be great to hear the Dalai Lama speaking about the true meaning of prosperity. Many of us are a bit confused by this issue.
I would like to meet the Dalai Lama and hear him speak about inner peace and the meaning of prosperity.
It is difficult to choose just one! What I would like to do is sit in a round table situation with these people to see what they would say and do to work together to bring together all their thoughts for a healthier environment and to end poverty for all living creatures just not man alone.
I would like to meet with Mr. Richard Branston with a personal request to fund my cancer research, which has the potential to cure all cancers. I would also like to meet wiht His Holyness Dalai Lama to get his blessings in my attempts to get rid of cancer once and for all from bothering humanity.
I would love to meet Richard Branson, firstly as an entrepreneur he has engouraged me in my business ventures to think outside the box and create my own destiny and reality. Looking forward to heading to Canada from home here in Trinidada and Tobago to meet him.
It would be a great day for me to meet with the Dalai Lama to share and interact with him on topics of religion and discuss our differences as I am a trainee minister for the spiritual Haahi Ringatu faith from New Zealand based in Australia. Maybe one day it may become aa reality.
I am totally enthused about the coming together of all these Giants and every time they come this way they have busy schedules and are swarmed by many people because of their popularity globally.
It would be awesum if their get together was broadcast live by telecast/seminar for everyone to make the project effective for global climate change results.
We all live in the 21st century our technology is here for this purpose we need to maximise on it and be effective.SO MY CHALLENGE TO EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THE DRIVERS SEAT, ''REACH OUT AND TOUCH MAKE THIS A BETTER PLACE AS WE CAN'' REGARDS
I`m a Holosync- user, so naturally I`m a big fan of Bill Harris. Not only does he have an awesome product, but I believe he is one of the most service- minded in this field. You DO get more than you expect from him and his Centerpointe. I would like to ask him about his view concerning the evolution of unity consiousness.
I would like to discuss with Richard Branson why there IS a cure for cancer, but it not "known" because the Pharmaceutical companies are paying off people because if the cure is "known", then no one will need the Pharmaceutical companies drugs and they will loose billions of dollars.
I would feel honoured to meet any or all 3 of these wonderful gentlemen as they are all living their truth and showing others by example. By meeting any one of them I know that I would learn something profound that I could bring back with me. This in turn would enhance my little corner of the world and everyone in it.
I would like Greg Mortenson of the Central Asia Institute from Bozeman, Montana (Three Cups of Tea) to be invited and be included in the discussion on how to improve the lives and educational opportunities of young people in the most impoverished areas of Kashmir, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Greg has been working for years to build schools in this region to help educate children and bring peace, one school at a time. To date he has built more than 90 schools (the major portion to educate girls in a part of the world that usually only offers education to male children). These schools give parents an alternative to the madrassas, which are usually the only form of education available in this part of the world. Thanks, Alyse Dodd from Paris
I would like to discuss with your group ways in which to stop the Illuminatti and the New World Order which they are trying to implement. These individuals have infiltrated all areas of high commerce, health care, education, just to mention a few. (I would bet that is why one blogger said he would like to ask Richard Branson if he is part of the BILDERBERG group). People need to "wake up" to the fact that there is an evil group at the helm of our world (globally) that can effect every area of our lives (financially, spiritually, emotionally and physically) by minipulating financial markets (which has already been put into place), banking "systems", our health care "systems", our commerce "systems", entertainment and news media, all of which are effecting large amounts of people on a grand scale. Know thy enemy, and the truth will set you free. Also, I would like to ask the Dalai Lama about his plans to assist people with raising their own personal vibrations to "offset" the negative engergies at work to take away our own personal "powers" and how to assist those that are having a difficult time in their lives at the present moment. Furthermore, I would like to ask all speakers about the knowledge they have regarding the "events" that are taking place to prepare us for the planet Niburu entering our solar system, the planets of the "crossing", the polar shift that will take place, and the entrance into the "New Age of Aquarius" as our planet goes through the re-birth process for the betterment of mankind and the spiritual progress each and every individual must journey through to truly understand who they are. These events that we are witnessing now on a grand scale, are reflections of our own consciousness mirroring itself onto all of us, and displays to us the power of thought and energy concentration. We need to change our energies (for the better, always!!) to enable us to re-define our world and how we view those that "appear" to be better than us, smarter than us, richer than us, more spiritual than us and stop idolizing those that seem to be "more" than what we as individuals are as we stand alone. We each are powerful just as each of you speakers are powerful, and I only hope that through your efforts to effect those that come into contact with your knowledge, you all indicate to each person listening to your speaches, that you should not be idolized, taken verbatim, and that each person must listen to their own instincts, inner voice, and follow their own path, so long as it stands for the betterment of mankind and for the realization that we are all one, and should be celebrated for our differences, so long as these differences solely effect everyone on a positive basis. We live in a 3rd density vibration with polarities, ying/yang, land/water, up/down, black/white, good/bad, man/woman... Lets try to move upwards and onwards toward 4th and 5th vibration density and change the inhabitants of this world and bring forth a new... whatever that may be, so long as it empowers those searching to transform all of us for the betterment of mankind and all living creatures living with harmony, peace, and most importantly love and abundance so that we can ALL experience the realization that we are first and foremost spirits having a human being experience and not the other way around. I love the quote by Deepak Choprah "We do not live in this world, the world lives within us". I hope this blog has brought some insight.
I dream to meet Dalai Lama and Richard Branston and pay attention the way they express themself and perceive their energy. To me they are extraordinary human being and I have a lot of things to learn from them. I hope God help me to get this dream become true.
Blessings to everybody!!
No mortal humanbeing can change the World? The present tragic events occurencies is the product of our thought Feelings and our Action. I will also like to be invited to give a speech at the summit
I have always wanted to meet the Dalai Lama. While I have great admiration for Mr. Branson and his astounding entrepreneurial success, and absolutely aspire to own a collection of Bill Harris's wonderful tapes, the Dalai Lama is the essence of our emerging new world. Here is a man who left his beloved kingdom and country, advocating peaceful resistance through higher vibratory channels, who is steady as the rock of the Himalayas despite endless criticisim and resistance, who keeps quietly going like the energizer bunny just BEING the embodiment of what we must all grow into in order to raise our collective consciousness into a higher race of cooperation and multidimensionality, without limiting belief systems. I just would like to bathe in his presence! Now if you can just get Gerald O'Donnell to show up I will come to the conference and work for you for free for as long as needed, Vishen-Micheal-san.
I would like to meet the Dalai Lama because I think he could help me to better be able to contact Source and to better be able to meditate, and to be more accepting of myself, others, and world events.
I have often thoght of what I would say or ask the Dalai Lama. For me it would be simply, sitting in his presence. I have been studying Tibetan healing for many years and feel just the energy he emits on all levels would be fulfilling for me.
Thank you and I await the future and what it brings. aloha, Bette
Dalai Lama once said: "My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness"
And if everyone could think like this we would have no suffering.
I am working on a Make-A-Ripple project to achieve a better world and I would like to meet Dalai Lama and talk to him about this project.
A project where one little shift in thinking can create a better world for everyone. I have built in an incentive so people can start to make this shift in their thinking.
If we are to make this a better world we need to start with ourselves.
Eileen Caddy once held a great speech where she said:
"The world can only be saved from destroying itself by a change of consciousness.
Universal peace starts within each individual. It starts within me and you. It is like a stone thrown into a pool of water. The ripples spread out and out, but they start at the very centre"
We can ALL Make A Difference if we start with ourselves and this is what I would like to talk to Dalai Lama about.
It wouldn´t hurt to get a few pointers from Mr.Branson either about distribution and how to reach millions of people with my Make A Ripple project. He is himself very much engaged in achieving world peace.
All the best,
Camillo
I applaud all involved!
I like to remind all of you "That we all know that We Are!"
That we all have the power of choice, by focusing on what we prefer and most powerful of all that we all can chose what is best for all involved and agree upon that.
We do not have to continue in ways that did not work,
we have some good contrast or conflict thou which helps us to focus in the directions of our desires.
Last time I've checked I saw one planet one humanity.
I say to those who have the knowledge and commitment to come forth and start creating new social structures worldwide
by raising awareness of these facts,
start to implement change.
Let's lobby human consciousness to awake to these facts.
Let's bring our intentions to fruitful expressions of this new found understanding.
Namaste
Dear Vishen,
Firstly many thanks for opening new vistas for me and many others everyday.
I would love to meet and interact with His holiness Dalai Lama as for me he is all about balancing the inner with the outer.
Also, I would greatly appreciate some meditations/ links to the same/ advice to help during my stressful periods in various relationships( work, home, child, husband, friend etc).
I´d love to come to join the event, but sitting in Europe and being involved in a lot of work, I might not be able to join this time. But you never know what the Universe presents.
Hope to get more information afterwards
Great success
Angela
well.... Richard Branson founded Virgin at the age 22....
what is his way of thinking? How could I learn to think like him? what kind of habit should I have? How can I change myself quickly?
What the hell has he in his mind?
Ciao from Italy
Paolo
Sean Stephenson. That man is a miracle on earth. I watched the videos on Finerminds about relationships and our limiting beliefs that really hold us back, not only when it come to relationships but in every field. I started to study patterns in my life and these limiting beliefs have really disappeared. I would love to talk to Sean about my experience and learn a little more about beliefs and relationships. He truely inspires me beyond extremes and makes me see things in a completely new light. And I would also like to meet Vishen!! I think he is like amazing!!! I loved his techique on goal setting and am actually seeing the law of attraction really working for me. My to-do list is like a magical one. If I put something on it, it somehow happens on its own. Its amazing! God bless you Vishen and Sean!!
I would love to meet the Dalai Lama, he is so totally amazing. It would just be an honor to shake his hand, if allowed I would give him a warm hug and say thank you.
Hands down, the Dalai Lama. Just to be in his joyful presence would be the honor of a lifetime (or several.) He is a beautiful and humble embodiment of peace, love, and tolerance. Rest assured, II will be with you (and the Dalai Lama) in spirit on the day.
I would like to ask Richard Branson to list five things he would be willing and capable of doing immediately to help bring out an advanced free energy technology that could begin to switch our culture and economy from one based on scarcity to one based on abundance.
The ramifications of this change are obvious, with the most significant one being that those few families who control the world's wealth and resources have no incentive to allow this to happen.
So, this leads to a follow-up question, how does he see this change or any other change with a similar impact to the current status quo ever being accomplished.
I would like to know from all the speakers how their vision of a new world looks like and what they "do" to make it happen
It's great to make big events with a real purpose, but why do they charge so much???? especially if the goal is to raise consciousness, a lot of people with small means need to be touched too!!! its a shame, its not like these speakers need any money...
To the question of who or which leader I would like to meet.....
tough choice but it would hopefully will be the Dalai Lama.
The world needs a change, and lasting change and that change will only come from within....a psychic spiritual change.
The Dalai Lama is timeless and without mental or spiritual bounds.
I want to be a part of the inner change now emerging upon the world and the Dalai Lama is at the center of that change.
Sir Richard's innovations make him a man who will help put the "legs" under any plan for change. Of course, it's more than just a dream to go into space in his projects.
I truly ask and beseech those that can make my desire to meet these gentlemen possible to ultimately chose me to help make these historical changes by meeting them especially the Dalai Lama.
Charles
Quite frankly, I can not imagine why (and truly HOW) one would want to or could CHANGE THE WORLD.
Although cosmically a spectre, most probably quite invisible to any possible viewer somewhere (out-there), to us humanoids it is a vast, enormous self-generated system which has its own, unique phase of infinite advancement, with it's currently
almost 7 billion human inhabitants of which no two are alike. It will be interesting to see what these (giants) will come-up with.
Vishen,
Thank you for this opportunity to speak. I would want to speak to the Dalai Lama because my ambition and his are congruent. I want to educate one complete generation of humanity with the Seven Spiritual Laws of Success by Deepak Chopra, who should also be in attendance at this event. We need an unabridged audio translation of the book in every language with inexpensive audio players, rechargeable batteries and solar chargers. This will give the entire planet a common education in the spiritual nature of success and the best practices to bring it about. It is my sincere belief this would do far more to end violence than Deepak's non violence pledge.
Let us daily increase in: wisdom, love, gratitude, reverence, healing, peace, joy, happiness, laughter and prosperity.
Love and Blessings X 10,
Ed
Scott me up beemie....I'd love to be at the conference and see all of them in action! The message is whole-listic, with each special speaker contributing thier story to paint a collective bigger picture for us...so, I'd like to meet all of them. Each represents an aspect of me...
I would love to meet his holiness-Dalai Lama....I remember years ago, watching Dalai Lama (don't know which group?), two monks drawing this amazing picture at a mall. It was a very touching moment for me, though I didn't know anything about them at the time...I believe that the Dalai Lama are extremely important but I haven't yet figured out why....strange
love to shake Mr Bransons hand.....after reading his work
"Screw It Lets Do It"...
and be in the presence of the Dalai Lama...
to drink tea......with
the presence of peace
on earth
in human form
I would like to meet the Dalai Lama. Not to ask him anything in particular but to invite him on a walk which will start when we would meet and stop when the first of us will smile. For that I would be thankful.
Thank you.
I would love to learn what these influencial individuals think about my theory of the start of a "Silent Revolution" which should explode into a complete evolution having mankind take the next step towards our salvation.
Richard Branson, Sean Stephenson, and even the Dalai Lama as yourself Vishen Lakhiani all deliver a special uniqueness with the understanding that we are different. Realizing this uniqueness in ourselves should cause the Silent Revolution to explode after understanding our own special powers revealed by the Secret of tarotnames.
It's the KISS principal, Keep It Simple Silly.
Having a mind melt with you and yours would feel better than sex.
I believe it is the collective that would be the real "power".
I have just returned from spending 7 days with a varied group of presenters on healing, spirit, global warming, the power of one, etc. I knew a number of the presenters from reading their books, listening to CD's or watching DVD's they had created. What was most amazing was to learn from the presenters I had never heard of before which truly opens the mind to new possibilities not before conceived. The group of presenters also brought together a very unique mix of participants and this co-operation of spirit and learning made for a truly extraordinary experience and a real "shift". I celebrate the combination of what all will bring to the party.
Most certainly His Holiness the Dalai Lama would be the one I would most like to meet. He has experienced so much in his life and still remains cheerful despite everything.
I believe just being in his presence would be such an uplifting and very humbling experience.
I WOULD LOVE TO GET A LOAN FROM THESE GUYS. I AM SURE THEY WOULD NEVER MIS $1,000,000. NOW THIS WOULD MAKE ANYBODY HAPPY. I AM A GIVER MYSELF THAT IS WHY I DON'T HAVEEY ANY MON
It's too good a group to select just one.. I'd love to hear what they all have to say.. unfortunately, I'm already away on a trip at that time.
Great to hear you're going to be speaking and in due course I look forward to reading your thoughts on what's said at that worthy gathering.
Terry..
Having the privilege of meeting the one of the past greats was John Denver who "connected dots" to achieve great environmental and humanitarian changes I would find it inspiring to meet and present my thought with these people.
There is en emerging trend to bring together luminaries of the day, but I am left wondering if we're not missing something, the incredible world changing possiblities that would come from a global luminary symposium.
Preparation for which would a collection of the works and thoughts of each representative.
I believe that out of this could come a platform for and entirely new world vision and power to effect the social, political, economic, environmental and humanitarian good.
I would like to meet Bill Harris. His contribution to the world via holosync can't be understated. I've often thought how nice it would be to talk to him in person not only about holosync but his philosophy on life and abundance.
I hope you would consider inviting Dr. Ilchi Lee, a world healer from South Korea who has set up 1000 centers world wide for peace working on training many to help heal themselves through brain art and then the world and the planet as earth citizens.
I think many of us are being called to rise to the stature we need in order to shift our consciousness and understand and embrace our connectedness. We are being called to share our knowledge/ the mysteries and the magic we hold of health, healing, and spiritual growth.
Light, Love and Laughter to each of us.
Does Richard Branson look like Dog the Bounty Hunter?????
That's quite a lineup, even for someone of your influence. Each of these wise people has something very valuble to teach, together you all are a tremendous powerhouse for change, a force to be reckoned with. Say more . . .
The Dalai Lama of course. Just being in his presence and listening to his wisdom of words is enough to keep me going. It's the Buddhist philosophy that got me this far in my life!
It would be an interesting evening of conversation for sure!
Richard Branson would be the person I would like to talk to and have a discussion with.
I would love to talk to him about Life Force Energy and how it is created and how to promote it. It can make a very big differece and change in this world.
It would be a thrill to get his advise and his input.
I thank you in advance for providing a place where people can learn and an avenue where like minded people can come together.
Have a blessed day now and alway enjoy life.
Gale ^i^
Yes, to sit at the feet of the Dalai Lama and absorb his holiness and wisdom would be wonderful, but having spent 8 years in Zambia, Africa during the Zimbabwe freedom struggle I would also like to hear the South African leader tell of his evolving awareness that apartheid and prisoning Mandela were not in the best interests of South Africa or the dignity of the human person there.
Tough decision but in final choice, it would be the Dalai Lama. I would ask him to speak about our automobile habit. He teaches compassion and loving kindness. The way we use automobiles is the opposite of this.I would tell him it is my belief that we must curtail the use of tem immediately. The reasons are obvious.
Hope it will be seen as appropriate to post a reminder that 21st September is UN International Day of Peace ... a day when everyone can do something and make a difference. It's a day for ceasefire in personal as well as community and international relations. So even deciding to ceasefire with the spouse, kids or work colleagues counts!!

Outer peace depends on inner peace and it's foundation stone is forgiveness.
Peace
I would like the Dalai Lama to meet me. My mantra: love and peace, ever since the Woodstock Love, Peace and Music Festival when I was 15, fourty years ago. Kindness with love as the motivation is the only cure for the human condition. If only our leaders could learn that fact. Some may be catching on but it is a slow process. "All you need is love" as John Lennon wrote. Meetings of like minded people can only help.
I would like to talk to the Dalai Lama as his knowledge on a broader scale of life looks into the human being and all life on earth and how we should interact with each other. I'm not after prosperity or personal goals just to get an idea of what knowledge he has learned over a lifetime and just listen to what he has learned and can teach us. Peace and humility to one another is more important than material gains in this life. We need to know what to do in our lifetime so that the next lifetime we can help others.
I wish to know anyone out there talk about the Earth. Why are we humans distroying it and what can we do about it.
I have read Richard Brandson's aututobiography. Would love to extend an invitation to him to visit Honolulu Hawaii to talk to other dyslexic students who would be inspired by his story.
I would love to speak with the Dalai Lama about love , compassion and the arts and hear how he feels about art , in my case sculpture , helping to influence mankind in a positive way.
I would like to ask the Dalai Lama if he believes extra-terrestrial biological entities have visited this planet in the past and/or present.
I would love to listen to them and witness!
how is it possible that Richard Branson gets top billing over His Holiness the Dalai Lama? is this indicative of the tilt of the conference? i'm certain His Holiness finds nothing wrong with this, but i do! nothing wrong with Mr. Branson, but honesty, are you kidding me? aaaaargh!
thank you so much for this information. I would choose the Dalai Lama if i had to pick one speaker.
His, seemingly endless, grace, appreciation for life in times of global turmoil and his country's suffering, are far more than inspirational.
However, it would be an honor to be in the presence, and learn from, any of the fore mentioned speakers.
I wish all who attend receive receive the teachings amplified
by the light and love of the universe.
I would love to hear and be close enough to feel the spirit of them all, but mostly Janet Attwood, I would love to rediscover my passions, I believe I am on the right road so that might give me a boost I need
The world is merely a reflection of the individual humans inhabiting it.
Dysfunctional marriages are the result of the union of dysfunctional individuals.
The Comunist system destroyed itself. Now we see the Capitalist system has also destroyed itself.
The people of the USA are worshipping a false god. It is called the American Dream and the belief that economic prosperity is all that matters, but it is such a sacred cow that no one has dared to name it.
What we need is a balance of wanting the best for ourselves and the greater good for all.
We need all the world religions to respect each other and to realise that they are all at the same alter but worshipping with different words.
We need men and women to be at peace with themselves and each other.
We need to realise that woman is the source of life and love, and that man is merely the protector of woman.
We need to understand the source of our individual dilemmas which is pre-natal and not post natal.
We need to realise that the human race is living on borrowed time.
We need to realise that our fast-living is a race to our own funeral.
Vivian Crowhurst
I think I have heard enough from the Dalai Lama. I have learned a fair amount about Tibetan Buddhism and although it is a benevolent life-style, it requires a great deal of abstinence. I believe this Dalai Lama has done many good things but we are not "just" spiritual beings. We are having a being experience also.
Actually, over the past few months I am beginning to feel like I am being swamped by people who want to help me save myself. Ultimately, I am the only one who can do that. One more talk, no matter who the luminaries are, isn't going to do it for me.
What I think would be nice is if you folks sat down and figured out how to channel aggressiveness in some other way than war and conquest. I would find that useful. I have been working with clients now for two years. These people have had the worst of everything dumped upon them. Their anger explodes into violence frequently. Their suffering is great. Yes, I know it is a choice to suffer but I can't look these people in the eye and tell them that. What are they supposed to do with all the accumulated anger they carry around? I have found that asking them to dramatize it somehow re-traumatizes them (and sometimes me) but not getting it into the open is also a problem. So, who can come up with a good solution to this problem? I'd be interested in hearing about that!
How do you get tickets to the
Calgary event....time and place and cost?
Vishen
You definitely have got the attention of all of us who follow and enjoy your beautiful interviews, comments, information to all those wonderful wise people that they are contributing to ever changing world for the better. Vishen, thank you for opening our minds and hearts to be aware that there is a better way to living our lives than following what are dished to us TVs, and newspapers. I am excited as you are, just reading all these comments posted in your blog. Looking forward to reading more ... thank you
It would be an honor to meet all of these great and inspiring leaders. What a great conference it will be.
THIS IS VERY EXCITING NEWS,TO MEET WITH THE DALAI LAMA HIMSELF....IT WOULD BE AN HONOR,I WOULD ASK WHY IN THIS DAY AND AGE THAT CHILD SLAVERY STILL EXISTS,WHY THE THIRD WORLD STILL REMAINS IN POVERTY AND HUNGER,WHY US THE HUMAN RACE STILL CREATE WARS AND BLOOD SHED...AS WE EVOLVED WE HAVE REGRESSED OR PERHAPS NOT EVOLVED ENOUGH TO DISCOVER THE TRUE MEANING OF THIS LIFE ON EARTH....WHY GOVERNMENTS, LAWS BENEFIT THE POWERFULL AND RICH....WHY THERE STILL REMAINS POWER STRUGGLES...DIVIDE AND RULE,,,SURELY WE SHOULD HAVE LEARNT BY EXPERIENCE BY NOW THROUGH HISTORY ONLY REPEATING ITSELF,THAT THIS HOLDS NO TRUE ANSWERS,ONLY HOLDS US BACK IN A PRIMITIVE TIME,THE RICH MUST LEARN TO SHARE AND HELP SET EXAMPLES...THE POWERFUL TO BE ROLE MODELS,WAR SHOULD BE NON EXISTANT,BLOOD SHED BE BANNISHED...ITS GREED AND CORRUPTION THAT DRIVES THIS..
NOT GOODNESS...WE HAVE TO EDUCATE,ERADICATE,MEDIA ADVERTISMENTS TELEVISION IS THE KEY TO THE BRAINWASHING OF SOCIETY AND KEEPING EVERYONE AS SIMPLE AND NEGATIVE TO THESE SUBJECTS...IF I COULD CHANGE THESE THINGS,ID START BY TELLING PEOPLE WE SHOULD FREE OUR MINDS FROM THE
CONDITIONING SOCIETY HAS INSTILLED IN US,WE ARE ALL UNIQUE,BUT EVERYONE OF US IS A PART OF THIS WORLD AND UNIVERSE,IF THIS IS SUCH A FREE WORLD,WHY DO WE HAVE MAN MADE RULES SET,LAWS SOME OF WHICH ARE NOT BALANCED,OR UP TO DATE,WHY DO WE STILL LIVE IN PRIMITIVE TIMES WHEN WE ARE SO ADVANCED...FINDING SOLUTIONS THAT SOLVE THE TROUBLES OF THIS WORLD IS THE ANSWER TO ERADICATING THEM,,,NOT PUTTING SUGAR COATED COVERS ON THEM....IT MIGHT FOOL SOME OF US...
BUT SOME OF US WITH HIGHER LEVELS OF THINKING CAN SEE
HOW WE ARE BEING FOOLED JUST TO KEEP THINGS UNDER WRAPS TILL THE NEXT TIME IT COMES AROUND...I SURE WILL BE INTERESTED TO HEAR WHAT ALL THESE PEOPLES VIEWS ON THESE AND MANY MORE SUBJECTS HAVE TO SAY...BUT WONDER WHO WILL BE THE BRAVEST IN TAKEING ON AND MAKING THESE CHANGES....
Sean Stephenson so I could feel his unworldly magnetic energy!
These are wonderful business adventurers and enterprising activists. We here on our farm have been working to alleviate the pains and sufferings of our patients without the intervention of modern drugs, whenever we can. The natural has been good to us. No help or aid from any one.. Just education, persistence and hard work entwined with the love for humanity and a lot of good luck. We have never met any big name people, but always hear about them and keep up with all of the scientific literature and the political news. Due to our age and heavy work load we never leave the farm except for emergency situations. You have a fine, well designed and written communications newsletter. Peace and Cares to all of you out there. Dr Paul and staff.
How do I (a normal person with not even a cent extra at the end of the month) manage to bring peace and enlightenment to the people I deal with every day? I cannot afford these fancy cd's and books as if I have extra it goes on food. How do I learn what I need to know? There are a lot like me, I form this question for us all.
I would very much like to meet His Holiness Dalai Lama. I sincerely feel the world needs more spiritual leaders like him to influence people to change from within themselves and have a direct connection with the Supreme Soul whom we can call whatever we want. We must learn from how to bring about positivity around us to make this world a better place to live
By an unwritten law of the universe only like minded people get together and stay together. They are happy to be tegether and enjoy the togetherness. I believe that the readers of this blog are willing to devote their time and other resourses to make this world
a better place to live. Let us resolve to commit at least a portion of our capabilities and possessions towards this noble obejctive. I am indeed grateful to you for bringing these giants together with the single objective of making available to the mankind the fruits of thier collective wisdom and experiences. After the individual speeches/presentations, let the Giants meet and come up with a joint proposal. I am indeed very excited to be a part of this great event.
it is a strange feeling to speak of it.. we are going through enormous changes in the past 7 years.. humans will not understand for another century what happened this last decade... we have been running head fast in the wrong direction not understanding why.. but nature has evolved and the planet as well.. we are spiritual, emotional mental and physical.. evolution occurs in any one of these.. the latest is significant as it is a major repair in nature.. and a total healing of the spirit which has been greatly damaged over the past 2000 years... the year 0 marked an end to an era... a major spiritual shift.. a major natural decision ... the ignorance of man in the knowledge of spiritual matters is right around the corner.. to many of us have made up our minds... so it will take future generations born of the clean to begin to understand what we have just been and today undegoing through.. the worse is over as the healing continues.. but no one hears the truth yet.. Gypsy...
If i had an opportunity to attend, I would choose to meet you in person - Vishen! Why? Because it was through stumbling upon Finer Minds and the brilliant interviews you give with people such as Gerald - that woke me up and began to inspire me to work on myself. I've never been impressed by big names - they are just a label - but what impresses me is someone's power to enable another to grow - in no matter how humble a way. His Holiness The Dalai Lama is one who inspires - but he was not my catalyst, Sir Richard Branson & the others? I wish them well and thank them for what they do in their own way, but I thank YOU for knowing which 'word' to spread and how to do it. God bless you, your wife and loved ones - THANKS!
Miracles to he who produces miracles are not miraculous. They are just what he does. With this in mind it seems to me that this group can do no more than tell us what we already know deep within ourselves. We are all within the universe and a part of that which has created it. The conviction that we are somehow separated from that universe is an illusion that our bodies attempt to foment in order to maintain the misconception that this physical existence is all that there is. The most important question one can ask is 'Where are we going?' The Dalai Lama is the one who can best steer us toward the answer. Personally I would love to meet Sean Stephenson. The one we most see when we look at others is ourselves.
I would love to attend, to be energized by these GIANTS.
THER IS NO NEED TO BREAK THE HEAD. THE ONLY THING TO IMPLEMENT & NEED OF THE HOUR IS VEGETARIANISM. STOP NON VEG INSTANTLY OTHERWISE THE WHOLE WILL BE REDUCED TO 1/3 OF ITS PRESENT POPULATION & WORLD MAP WILL CHANGE TO THE UNEXPECTED SIZE. THE SECOND POINT IS LIVE & LET LIVE EVERYBODY INCLUDING THE OTHER CREATIONS ON THIS EARTH. THE THIRD POINT IS MEDITATION--OBSERVE THE BRAETH & EMPTY UR MIND, NO KANTRA, NO CHANTING SIT IN RELAXED POSE CLOSE UR EYES. THIS GIVES U THE TRUTH. FOR ,ORE DETAILS CHECK THE SITE WWW.\\ PSSMOVEMENT.ORG
Love to have as many discussions as possibel.
It would be an honour to listen to the three great personalities.But ,vishen,i would like to meet you.At this young age you have acquired so much knowledge and it is your goodness and your parents blessings ,you are able to share the dias with such eminent persons.you deserve the BEST.God bless you. indira
I would like to ask to the Dalai lama, why their people in Tibet are not allowed to study, and why they have to worship the Lamas as gods, why they cannot look into the Lamas faces without being punish why all the wealth of Tibet is concentrated into the Lamaseriums, and why the people get nothing.
In the beginning I have a few doubts, but now I would not touch
your organization with a 10 foot pole, I am really aware of what you are doing and Luckily I worship only one God and luckily I don't belong to no Church, or fraternity or cult, and the rest of your Giants don't impress me a bit, you and the rest of your kind are working very efficiently to complete the programming of my people, but change is on the offing.
SIR I'VE SEEN BOOTLICKING BEFORE,AND YOUR BLOG JUST ABOUT TAKES THE AWARD.
I REALLY DON'T CARE TO MEET ANY OF YOU,MONEY SPIRITUALISM AND ARTISTS AREN'T ALL GOING TO SIT AT ONE TABLE AND COME UP WITH NOTHING NEW,EXCEPT MAKING MORE MONEY.
A DEBATE IN REALITY NOT THE POSSESSION OF SOMETHING INTANGABLE ,HAS TO BE HAD, AND A REAL DEEP FROM THE VISCERA ANSWER HAS TO BE AGRRED TO.ACTUALLY A VERY SIMPLE ANSWER TO VERY SIMPLE QUESTIONS.THESE ARE THE WORDS OF GIANFRANCO FRONZI,4 LABELLE ST. SAULT STE. MARIE ONTARIO, CANADA
It is the great minds like Richard Branson desperately needed to make decisions for the many flocks of "hopeful humans" who have been betraid by the people in public office that have no interest in serving for the good! Did you ever ask yourself why does one administration to another make the same mistakes? You would think these so-called leaders would occasionally make a decision,(every once in a while) on our behalf. I wonder what The Dalai Lama and Mr. Branson would say about the so-called Planet Of The Crossing? Is this really going to happen? Many Thanks, BaryM.B.
I will be blessed, to meet The Dalai Lama and know some of the experiences of his in relation with his soul, energies and definning our connection with the universe. Also about re-encarnation.
I would like to express my gratitude to Finer Minds for making me part of this awesome event. looking forward to hear more about it.
I would like to meet Richard Branson as he always has time for everyone no matter what race creed or colour or status. He is one in a million, has fallen down and gotten up big time. He is totally an amazing person.
I would love to hear all of them speak very clearly and specifically about how we can all come together to create a peaceful, fun, beautiful transformation on Earth...and then to launch it in a really cool way.
See http://www.bestgame.org
Thank you to all of you for your kind, heartfelt and thoughtful actions. Let's make 2009 The Year of Miracles!
THE GREAT DALAI LAMA of course....
would like to hear him talk about INNER SELF ..
I went in search of God and I Found Myself ..
I went in search of ME and I Found God ...
Everything comes from your centre point. I would find it extremely interesting to meet with Bill Harris. The question I'd put forward would be to the effect of: What further discoveries or research information has been "discovered" with regards to the centre point within each?
I would like to speak with Richard Branson, I am new to this and find it rather interesting.
I would like to meet both Richard Branson and the DaiLai Lama. Richard for his entrepreneurial skills and the Dailai Lama for a spiritual take on prosperity, as we need both in this world that we live in.
I would most love to meet with the Dalai Lama. I don't think I would have any questions for him. I think simply being in his presence would be quite enough.
Dear Vishen
I would like to be there and make a humble request to all of them to ulitilize their good offices to press on the leading protagonists and other decision makers of the main happenings of the world to harness all their forces to fight against hatred.
This is where RELIGIONS and LEADERS( INCLUDING THOSE WHO PROCLAIM THEMSELVES AS SAVIOURS) have failed miserably.
Let them not only preach LOVE but LIVE LOVE.
I would like to come just to be in the presence of such awesome vibration and to listen to the dialogue of these remarkable people. It just occurred to me that I listened to one of Bill Harris's meditation cd's a few years back, "The Dive". Looking back that was a turning point for me in my journey to Enlightenment. Everything began to change for the better. Thank You
I would like to meet Dalai Lama, because the last book that I read was the interview with Dalai Lama - "How to be happy", from wich I was thriled. I think that Dalai Lama in simple way presents to us the phylosophy of Live, in order how to achieve happyness.
Best Regards,
Ellis,
It would be amazing to meet any or all of them. It is all so
interesting and enlightening. Recently I have become more
focused and positive about life and making it better. Thanks.
I would like to meet the Dalai Lama. He is one of the most gentle yet strong person in my estimation. I feel the wonderful emotion of peace when I am listening any of his talks.
i would like to talk and listen to the Dalai Lama about the understanding and the love between all creatures
I would most like to meet the Dalai Lama just to feel his PRESENCE, and the others as well for the same reason. Please send me a ticket:)
Just to be in the presence of the Dalai Lama would be such a spiritual experience. I think to have the memory of interacting with him would provide such an anchor of peace and joy in my life. Congrats of moving up the ranks in the spiritual world, very exciting!
Dear Vishen
I'm sold. So, how do I get to hear from all these great minds in one place? Even a transcript would be valuable to me. Thanks again for pulling all these events together.
Ken
It is wonderful to see the highest spiritual leaders share a conference stage with very successful businessmen all with a passion for making the world a better, safer, healthier, holier place. The world needs more visionaries . We need to drastically change the status quo, "business as usual" where the mighty corporations will finally be reined in by the public. The public needs simply to wake up!
If I could choose to meet any of your speakers, I would choose to meet Sean Stephenson. He seems to meet life head on and with humor.
All of your guests are interesting and intelligent but Sean has adapted to his life circumstances wonderfully.
Thanks for giving me the opportunity to share my thoughts.
I AGREE WITH EVERYTHING, WHAT ( Sandra HAS WRITEN ,UP THIS PAGE).!!!! THANKYOU SANDRA, WHAT WONDER-FUL,IN SIDE HEART. OF THE REAL AGENDA...????? BUT.!! IF I HAD A CHANCE TO MEET OR TALK TO ONE OF THEM,,,IT WOULD BE.......DALAI-LAMA....WHY.?,,,,,,,BECAUSE....I WOULD ASK HIM ONE SIMPLE QUESTION, SO EASY, TO UNDER STAND, WITH HIGER-SELF.....THAT EVERY PERSON HAS WITH-IN ONE SELF. WHO SEEKS TO FIND, GOD SELF.........IS.......IF YOU KNOW THE TERROR, THE LIES, THE HATERD,KILLINGS,REDUCE POPULATION......AND THE MANY LIE'S....WHY....WOULD YOU FACE ME,,GOD SELF,,CO-CREATOR,,,,,,AND NOT ALLOW, THE BROTHERS AND SISTERS ON MOTHER EARTH,,,,TO FIND THEM SELF, SO LOVE WITH BRING, THE LIGHT TO PLANET EARTH,,,,,I WOULD STEP DOWN OF MY MATRIX ILLUSION WORLD, LIFE EXPERIENCE, OF BECOMING HUMAN,,,,SAY,,WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID-OFF.??? YOU ARE ME AND I AM FREE,,,,,,,TELL EVERYONE THE TRUTH NOW,,,NOT LATER...I WILL KNOW ANY-WAY.....ITS JUST YOU CAN SAVE MORE LIVES , BY BEIN, WITH THE LIGHT, FOR ALL,,NOT KEPT IN THE DARK.....CHEERS TO ALL,,HOPE YOU DO THE RIGHT THING FOR MOTHER EARTH...
Oh,I would like to hear all of them,but I also would like to speak English better and than to discuss with Mr.Sean Stephenson,at first.Thanks Vishen for your angement for the world,for us.
I am nobody,but I am so proud to live at the same time with these people.
I am sure that the dichotomy of the the speakers, some Rich in monetary wealth , His holiness in spiritual wealth, would be the event of a lifetime!
I am far from accumulating vast amount of either, and my journey will , hopefully include the privilege of attending a conference to meet these esteemed individuals.Thank You!!
Thank You for the invitation to meet these unique individuals.
The journey of enrichment is ongoing, and ripe with possibilities.
Looking forward to October..ThankYou
I have always been interested by the Dalai Lama.
in fact I have 1 of his book at home.
this man to me represents what every human being should be or at least become.
muguette
Vishen - I am very grateful that you have presented this opportunity. I would like to meet Janet Attwood. It's been less than a year since I have discovered this journey of awareness. I am a big fan of James Ray and at one of his conferences, I learned about her Passion Test book. I am beginning to rediscover all my talents, but I'm still unclear on what I want to do and how I can make a difference. I loved Janet's story and would love to talk with her more about how she got started down this path.
Thanks again!
Lisa
I have no preference on who I`d like to meet or speak to at this conference,but I`m the kind of person who understands that the minds higher state of awareness and power is our only supreme weapon against this obstinate,obtrusive and arrogant world,to name just a few negative attributes to which I think they`d agree.Free will/and been cut off from God as they would all probably agree too is the reason why this world is in a terrible mess.So the only cure would be to let go of the ego of this world.As others have said this healing can only be done through the spontaneous higher thinking of this entire world,and I certainly can`t see that happening any time soon! I`m sorry to say there are a lot of foolish people out there holding us back.On the other hand it is extremely sad that there are many good hearted people who deserve better material circumstances so to create a breathing space if you like to find the truth.I have deep respect for those trying hard maybe like Richard who represents the messed up Western world here and what he would like to do to help this Governing system of things or more so the people who feel trapped in it.I think you`ll always have your so called peace keepers who are really war mongerers who sell violence in the shape of weapons and physical power.Lower Humans have put themselves into a rut that only they themselves can get themselves out of ,but again what these Great people like Ghandi,Dalia,Jesus are doing is giving a life saving example to the spiritually needy of this tiny speck called Earth,yet most of the needy in the world won`t even have a clue about what could be going on at this conference or in history.As a person I am developing an ability through dreams ,and this ability gives me insights to the future.I do believe that these insights have a sender and I like many others also have a sender.From the dream that I had on 9/11/01 where I was running from an enormous tidle wave to the dream where I saw the tragic Airfrance a330 disaster occure because the bad weather that caused a bad backwards stall causing the loss of the rear flight controls.These dreams give me great faith even though they point often but not always to doom.The later seems to apply more to Richards situation as he runs his Airline and knows he must trust in these aircraft.So anyway mysteries to some can be explained to others as unfortunate or fortunate happenings and I would find it somewhat trivial to ask just one question when really I could talk for hours,days about many issues....
Jesus never said, give me money and I'll show you the way.
and I doubt that God ever said, For money I'll create you or I'll create you then you can give me money. The information that all these "giants" possess is something that is already inherent in the being that exists. Some have found the way, and others need to be told. The kingdom of God is inside you. Those who know the way, are to help those who are struggling to understand the "other side." But for a dollar I'll show you, or maybe a couple, haven't made up my mind! Anyway, Knock and it shall be opened, seek and you shall find, ask, and it shall be given unto you. Don't think it has anything to do with money. Peace is within, and when its given, then peace is without. Give of yourself freely.
thanks
What they are doing is not new for me. To create a world in happy posibilities for everyone we have to contribute to our needs and dreams to fulfill it. Then we can grow as a human race to higher dimensions. Love to meet you. With all my heart.
Bill Harris sounds so interesting. I always admire people who are so well rounded in their careers. How do they schedule all those things into their daily lives? One career at a time or all at once.
Everything about this idea is wonderful BUT meeting without
the greatest mind, heart and Buddhist who is Thich Nhat Tanh
will be lost for something the most wonderful in contemparary world - true teaching of Buddha. Thich Nhat is the greates moral authority and teacher Zen Buddhism. He is my love, teacher of the true teaching of Buddha. No one can replace Thich Nhat Tanh - master of Plum Village
I would like to meet Janet Attwood. Her work on following your passions and even discovering what they are is very important. If we were all pursuing what we were destined to be doing this world would be a much more vibrant and joy filled space. Life can only be lived fully if you are living in your passions. I would like to talk with her about the dramatic changes she has seen in individuals who step forward in to their passions and begin the pursuit of the happiness that comes with that.
Hi everybody, hope all of you guys are all right.
I firmly beleive, that this human generation are near the end or the start of a new way of life and think...the magnitude of the energy around us, Its huge, can be negative or positive, this is the time to choose our team, our side are we here to help human kind or to destroy it....we, the seekers the doers, the creative have a big responsiblity, we must think like gladiators, because evil is stronger than ever, in the internet, the food, the TV, the music, our planet itself, we are destroying our bodies and our planet...I think everyone of us is special, I respect all the names listed on this event, they are doing what is necessary to have a better world to live, they have the courage to look and find inside them in their spirits and mind is purpose in life...lets have sinergy with them, listening, taking action and get out of the rat race, witch means death and spiritual suicide...live full and serve others....break down fears
best regards...
I would love to have an hour with Sir Richard Branson because, not only is he such an interesting creative and successful person, but because he is one of the few in that arena who also cares passionately about taking care of the environment.
I almost had the chance once, on the way to the shower in Tortola, at the start of a weeklong sail with friends, but I was a mess, half asleep and not quite clear that "surfer dude" looking guy was who I thought he was, till I heard an aristocratic Brit asking "Richard" why he was racing someone else's boat - how funny! Ah, the brush with fame!
But I love that men like Ted Turner and Richard Branson - with so much going on - remember that the earth that supports us all desperately needs our help and attention and our greatest ideas to fix the problems we're facing, and that it's not all about accumulating more "stuff".
Richard Branson is a self publicist with no interest in anything but himself and his close circle. My partner has worked closely with him. He his selfish, dishonest and devious. I have met more than a few casualties of his behaviour.
The more I follow developments in this story the more I see that these so called finer minds have disappeared up their finer behinds!
I wonder if this will be published.
I would love to meet the Dalai Lama and talk about continuing the studies he helped put together on the brain that led to the discovery that we indeed can grow new neurons, and further the subject to demonstrate the actual, physical connection of the brain with the "ethereal" world. I would love to work on the project of space travel with Sir Richard Branson, and work to demonstrate new forms of propulsion that are actually plausible but not yet feasable. I would love to ask Steven Covey about helping develop a good series like "the habits" to actually help people expand their minds for new knowledge.
I would thank De Clerk for doing the unthinkable and impossible and that so many others feared to do because of it's possible adverse consequences: to free Mandela. I believe these people will all make possible this slow, painful shift our human experience is going through, and I wish I could join them and help, and coordinate and channel all their efforts.
is branson footing the bill? it would be ever so generous of himself to do so! not that i expect him to put us all up but it would be really nice if this were a minimal-cost entry event! travelling to alberta and finding shelter aren't the cheapest propositions and many people will struggle to afford THAT part... sounds like a great event for sure!X
Dear Vishen,
I have been composing poetry in essense, healing of our souls,cleansing our thoughts bringing forth inspiration allowing everyone the abundance of Love,Compassion Kindness in our world we live.Trust to share with all. My passion, gift,writings started approximately four years ago, January 2005. I have given my poetry to family, friends,strangers to heal,guide, inspire them, a single thought can change the way we feel in a instant. Life is just a click of our fingers, our souls live on forever, as long as someone speaks our name such as the greatest people on Earth, Jesus Christ, Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King jr, toname just a few, they had all made an impact a clear difference in our world with their words, whether they were crucified, persecuted assassinated for their beliefs. The changes came even faster upon their demise. I don't want to have to be gone to know that changes are for everyone to feel, touch, experience this is Our World to share. I have been wanting to have my poetry embraced by all, in essence to share the Joy of LOVE. Changing one persons single thought on how they perceive the world is a fresh start to something warm and wonderful. I would love to meet the Dali Lama, hiws inspirational words the gift he offers the world the enrichment felt within many.
Here is one experience the effect my poetry had on one person and her family. I haven't ever met the gentleman who I asked my friend to give my poetry to, her ailing Grandfather. I did give her instructions on how I wanted her to present the poetry to her Grandfather and family upon arrival to the hospital. We had both worked together at a call center. She had to leave and go to her family in Newfoundland,Canada as her Grandfather was at death's door, we reside in Halifax, NS. just before Christmas 2005. Her grandfather has cancer in the lower part of his body and the Doctor's stated that he didn't have long before his death, approximately New Years. Her grandfather's cancer has since fallen to sleep, no growth no more pain only the Joy of Life. The Dr's are still amazed by the change in him,
Her name is (Tiffany Stevens),her grandfather woke everyday statting adamnatly " this was the day I am going to go to Heaven and leave Earth, be apart of God's family of angels". I gave her two poems that I felt would make the whole familyfeel the love they have for one another. Letting them know that words would change their Grandad, Dad,Brother, Uncle's way of thinking. I have to say to this day he is still here with us. From the moment they were read aloud in the hospital room her Grandfather's way of thinking had changed, he has not nor does he look back he only looks forward to his today's, everyday's alway' with vogor for life.The happiness in living everyday to the fullest. He reads them everyday as a prayer and thanks God for the Angel who sent them.
Here are the poems that transformed one family in to believing their is Light that shines Bright upon us everyday.
The first is titled "Live Your Life Through A Jar Of Jellybeans". This poem came to me from God. I was at work one evening, it was kind of slow. I was having a moment of despair, when everything felt ok I need something. I raised my hands in the air, asking God "Please give me something to live by", in an instant he answered saying "Live your life through a jar of jelly beans" , through my tears I started to laugh, saying "What the heck are you talking about" all that came to me then was think about jellybeans. I have o say that everytime I thought about jellybeans I would brim with happiness and have a few tears fall upon my cheek, the joy I felt was overwhelming. On the fifth day this is what I wrote, from that time I have written approximately 60.
Live Your Life Through a Jar Of Jellybeans
Life is as good and as sweet as you make it on a daily basis
It is like a rainbow, not too many things are Black or White
Most people associate a color with a feeling
So when you Live Your Life Through a Jar Of Jellybeans
You will be Blessed everyday you have one
The second one is titled "Faith"
Faith
When you get to the end of all the light you know
And it is time to step into the darkness of the unknown
Faith is knowing that one of two things shall happen
Either you will be given something Solid to Stand on
Or you will be taught How to Fly
Everything in Life has a Silver lining
Be Inspired
The two poems have inspired Tiffany's whole family, they have bought jars of jellybeans and have them placed in their living rooms, entranceways for everyone to share in the words that made such a tremendous enlightenment within her family. I have since wrote more to inspire our souls.
In the months that followed this tremendous leap of faith, I gave her another one titled "Angels", I wrote this poem to heal my own heart along with my family. On January 14, 2007 their were two fatal car accidents,which took the lives of three young people along with a Mother and her two daughters,within 12 1/2 hours of one another.The most unfortunate part of all this tragedy is they were all known by my children and relations to our family, dealing with so much grief trying to assist the ones you Love to continue on, be strong, as a Mother myself ,I knew I had to be for them, giving Love Compassion and Kindness in a time of anguish.
I had visions almost daily of them, knowing they were not going to be here to share our hugs, talk with,knowing this.I had to find a way to helpmy family and my self along with so many others.
Once I completed my poem, It would give me the hope I wanted to live wholely again. I wrote my poem at work. From that moment on I felt so much better and no more visions. My healing had begun.
Giving it once again to Tiffany, at the time she had a customer on the phone who required an Angel, how fitting, she read this to the lady,the lady saying to her "Thank You, who wrote this and how did they know it was needed". Tiffany just said she knows when things are needed.
Also at this time her grandfather was once again in the hospital,had been for a few weeks, waiting to have his pacemaker given new life(a smaller battery, placed within him), he was in ICU as his health was depleting, the original pacemaker slowing him down. Tiffany went home that night sent the poem via email to her Aunt in NFLD and off to her Grandad, by the next morning a miracle happened once again, his vitals and anything that was lapsing were normal.His Dr asked what happened, he said " An Angel came to me, answering my prayers". He had the operation and is now living his life fully, not worrying about if this is the moment or not, just loving life and all it has to offer.
My question to you would be how do I set free the words that have changed one family and so many others. Please reply back.
Thank You ever so much for your time

I would like to meet Richard Branson because I want his life. The question I would ask is how, as a person, can I divide work and spirituality. I want to find a way to help people less fortunate than me but somehow, receive the money to feed my son and myself, afford to feed less fortunate, and have the gas to go between the two. I help until I run out of gas. I want to be a missionary, I want to decifer fact from fiction when it comes to the Bible. Why we are here to strive for perfection when perfection is impossible according to the Bible. What is the actual TRUTH?
Oh how i would love to come and be in the presence of all these
people and listen to what they have to say. all of them in their
own special way have touched the lives of many. The Dalai lama and Bill Harris have cetainly helped mine. I could'nt agree
more with Anne O comment, would'nt it be nice if Gerald O'donnell turned up.
kind regards
Sylvie
I'd love to meet FW De Klerk. I'm South African and would love the opportunity to meet our ex-president. His party's politics weren't anything to be proud of, but he took a brave step forward for our country by releasing Mandela. Imagine being the one to face up to all those crotchety apatheid stalwarts. Scary bananas!
Dear Vishen,
What I would really like to know from the group of luminaries is this : I believe that if one could align oneself with the laws of nature, or the Laws of God, every thing would work out fine - health, economics. politics, technology, the whole lot. Problem is how can the generality of mankind find out what these laws say, or where they may be learnt. I have come to the conclusion that religion has failed in this respect because in spite of the fact that the majority of men (and women) belong to one religion or the other, so much is very very wrong with mankind today. Our latest woe if one can single out just one of them is the current economic melt down.
Are we going to have a tele-conference? Hope so!

I dream of one day meeting and working with Sir Richard Branson. In fact, I've already come very, very close to this - I met Sir Branson briefly at the public debut of SpaceShipOne & White Knight - the aircraft that initiated Virgin Galactic.
Presently, I am a student at the University of Chicago, completing my last year of undergraduate study in Physics.
Given the chance, I would ask Sir Branson the following:
"If you could speak to every 21-year-old in the world today, what would you tell them? What would your advice be? What do you wish you would have known in your youth that you know now?"
I'm very excited to follow the outcome of the great meeting-of-minds this October!
Hi
would love to but unfortunately or fortunately working, and were short staffed where I work.
Thanks anyway
Say special Hi to all the leaders. I'm sure theyre all doing their best at what they do best!
Freda
For sure the Dali Lama. He is the one who is in touch with everything that goes on in this world on a consciousness level. It's compassion and empathy and intuitiveness and all that this encompasses that knows what we need globally. He hears and knows source.
Dear Vischen,
It seems to me, or one could really say, that it is obvious that religion has failed in the sense that whereas majority of human kind belong to one religion or the other, yet man is in a terrible fix - every thing has gone wrong - in politics, governance, the economy, health, morality. every thing.
The law of attraction is just one of the laws of nature, or the Laws of God. Living in tune with these laws will ensure that life is enjoyed to its fullest extent. What we see around us today is clear evidence that we do not live aright in the sense of the Laws of the Creator.
It will certainly be interesting to listen to these luminaries. Are we going to have a tele-conference? I hope so.
Umoh Victor
It would be empowering and enlightening to be present for this grand event. All presenters are teachers for change.
Personally I would be excited to converse with Richard Branson. He is an inspiring visionary. I would share my life long vision which involves a real estate/lifestyle concept.
If I was asked to decide what we need most to change from the issues of our environment, politics, economy or religion, I would have to say that is a chicken/egg question because the biggest problem lies within us and we all need to take personal responsiblity for absoutely everything.
Improving our mindset has a positive affect on our private lives and eventually the world at large. There is much science and spiritual practise to support this message but the bottom line is that we are spiritual entities coming into our world needing good nourishment and love to grow. If all life force would resonate loving energy, it would change our perspectives and interactions in a new world perspective.
My model would address the issues at a core level by developing a community which would guide and enable people to "live the change". Its a win/win concept to fill the void and lead individuals to empowerment for the good of all.
I would call it "Somewhere"!
I would ask President F.W. deKlerk how concerned humans can influence world leaders to speak out on the threats to our survival; Climate Change, Overpopulation, Environmental Destruction...
And of course, world peace- http://www.PalestinianState2010.info
what if the world is perfect just the way it is? What if the only illusion is that we are separate from source/God?
What if it you did not hold the belief that you should not be living in a cardboard box? You could be happy living in that box.
You are /the world is perfect until you have the belief that you/its not. So why would you have that belief and ruin a perfect you/world. Yes its radical thinking, but only to the ego.
In this moment before a thought enters your mind all is perfect.
As soon as you go into a thought you go into the past or future and leave the present moment. Stop for a moment . Isn't this moment perfect?
I would like to see MORE women emphasized as I am one and I think like a woman which I perceive as differently orientated.

Sean Stephenson. I would want to meet Sean Stephenson because to me he is the tallest of all these great giants.
Congratulations to you for being invited to share a stage with them. Your heart, compassion, insight, wisdom, openness and willing service, through FinerMinds, enables the rest of us to go there with you. Thank you.
I would want to meet Sean Stephenson because in my perception he has already climbed a mountain before anyone else even gets out of bed.
I could and need to learn how he does it.

My choice would be His Holiness the Dalai Lama. There is a presence within him that emanates even from his photographs that I find transformational.
No words or questions are necessary to ask of him.
I wouldn't mind who I would meet. I would simply give them a hug
Ibelieve our generation is privilege to have mentors like these men. Am sure what the politicians have failed the JAW-JAW gurus can help to put right. I tried to help you find a word to describe your nervous cum excitement its MIX-MIX. Go! have fun.
My earlier comments have been censored.
But the truth is still the truth.
Greatminds. Really??
I would be a pleasure to meet all of them!!! We can learn so much from their expertise it would be amazing. They are a power house with soooo much knowledge, is great they are willing to teach us how to use ours. We need to have more people understanding what our universe and our minds can do. Can you imagine, if we could get every single person in this world to think good thoughts on how to fix our beautiful blue planet and the global warming??? It would be amazing!!!

I would love to go to Calgary and hear them talk and teach us their knowledge.
You are a special man with a special purpose enjoy!
I must beg to differ with respect to your comment on President F.W. deKlerk. If you check the historical records, it was this man who perpetuated apartheid in South Africa and was responsible for keeping Nelson Mandella imprisoned (a total of close to 30 years).
It was international pressure and events such as Sowetto that lead to the release of Nelson Mandella.
It was this great man, Nelson Mandella, who realised that the only way forward for South Africa and to avoid further blood shed was forgiveness. Consequently, he, Mandella, sat down and forgave deKlerk and together mapped a way forward for the nation.
Whilst it is not up to us to judge deKlerk, I do believe that we present an unbiased and correct record of historical events and give honour to Nelson Mandella for his intiative - not deKlerk's.
We are being prepared for change that we are unable to resist. Governments are so far in debt, that the only way to pay it off is if the interest rate is kept at zero. This changes the banking system and the power of money and Government and , in fact everything about the world we live in.
Capitalism and Communism both use the same banking system which is the force that allows the few to control the many. When the banking system changes, the world changes.
I want and will be Honoured to meet the 14th Dalie Lamia as he is a true careing human being,one who cares for Mother Earth and is Proud to say so.The Earth comes first and when we put her first, we learn to look out for each other as well. After all when we grow up we will realize that LOVE is the awnser. Thank U

It would be great to hear the Dalai Lama speaking about the true meaning of prosperity. Many of us are a bit confused by this issue.
I said:
Although I am not the Dalai Lama but I may share my real inner knowledge:
The true prosperity is inner peaceful power in mind. In Buddhism way we believe this can lead us to wealth, health and happiness in both carnal world and inner world. It’s because when we have peace in mind we will understand ‘Moderation in all things’. We will never go further to be greedy, angry or lustful. Everything in our circumstance seems to be positive and calm. We will be full of conscience and consciousness in all deeds. What we are doing are always right because of our conscience and consciousness. Right causes make right results. You will have no bad or wrongdoing results any more since you have fulfilled your spirit with peaceful mind and begun with right actions.
No bad or wrongdoing results means no sufferings results to your life. Is it “happiness”, isn’t it? If you have “moderation in all things” implies that you will have any food with appropriate quantity and have no extravagant on your spending. These bring you to be healthy and wealth. Is that right?
This is the right way of getting any prosperity you want. It is Amazing for this inner peaceful power in mind.
Thanks for all the comments guys. I have an interview coming up with Greg Hasbritt soon, he;s the guy who pulled together this amazing event and brought all this people together.
THANKS TO ALL THE COMMENTS, I LOVE THEM ALL, AND THANKS TO THE CREW...CHEERS LOVE AND LIGHT TO ALL AND MOTHER EARTH..
I would choose to meet the Dalai Lama. Because that would be a great story to have and to top it off, I would be meeting the Dalai Lama.
It would be cool to exchange jokes and advice.
Excellent comment, Sandra!!! And a very insightful question, Ruth. I do not know of any connection between Sir Richard Branson and the wicked, mal-intended, greedy, corrupt, devilishly selfish & egoic Bilderberg Group, but this could merit a deeper investigation, as they prey upon those with as much power, money & prestige as Branson, courting them over time ever closer to their inner sanctum. Go on Alex Jone's site http://www.infowars.com and search for this year's list of attendees. I did not see him on it. Even if he is, sometimes it is wise for someone with that much wealth, power, & influence to "keep your friends close, and keep your enemies even closer!". So even if he is a member of Bilderberg, he shouldn't immediately be demonized in assumptions. As Christ taught: "You will know them by their fruits". It is the fruits of Branson's labor and strategy that I am the most interested in tasting at this point in my life and new career. I would like to hear him speak the most of all of them (and would like to meet him and be genuine friends someday, for that matter). I would have chosen the Dalai Lama, but I have already had a wonderful experience with him and have already heard him speak several times. He was one of my teachers at the Spirituality in Education Conference at the Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado during the Summer of 1996! This is for Raj... curing cancer is easy. I figured it out from this fact: Cancer cells cannot exist in an oxygen rich cellular environment or a high alkaline pH environment (the 2 go hand in hand). There are several ways to do this. I found that the easiest way is to mix a specific amount of food grade hydrogen peroxide into a specific amount of distilled water, drink it, exercise and you're cured!!! This is how I cured my pancreatic cancer! Be Well, All, and READ SANDRA'S POST!!! I could say so much more, but she has already said it best!
What they are doing is not new for me. To create a world in happy posibilities for everyone we have to contribute to our needs en dreams to fulfill it. Then we can grow as a human race to higher dimensions. Love to meet you. With all my heart.
Well, meeting theses peoples would be very interesting, but only with additional people like.... mostly David Icke or Alex Jones maybe or other people who surely have a serious ideas on what can be done to have a change in society for the people, instead just excite people with ideas that will never come true! And concerning the former president of south africa...euuhm, sorry but I'm not with you when you speak about his socalled courage ... ! Sell truth and true information, not useless excitment. That cost us all too much on a longterm.
And finally that speaking about things and conditions like they really are instead of missleading endorming speeches, all this on a big & little scale. This is one occasion.
Let us free the tiger within each of us!
The meeting would be far more interesting with people really questioning the world's happening and asking the right questions. That's what will surely missing when it comes to it.
No offens to the Dalai Lama, Richard Branson and Co., but they bright more through their Names than through standing behind truth and make it openly expand.
i would like to ask fw deklerk if it would be possible for this whole group to assist in securing the release of the worlds longest incarcerated political prisoner, leonard peltier who is representative of the worlds greatest ongoing holocaust, the genocide of the indigenous people of the americas. as long as this holocaust continues we cannot say as a collective that we are gaining ground in our evolution as a human family. by securing the release of mr. peltier i feel this will be a constructive signal to the world that things are changing for the better. i can foresee a world class speaking tour that engages the experience of mr. peltier in the same manner that occured with mr. mandela.
I found it most interesting to read the comments before i respond this time, as there were some very interesting comments, Most inspiring was from Sandra and Starchild thankyou for sharing that cancer tip, I have known about the hydrogen peroxide for some time, The fact is we can make a difference by helping other's and even sharing information that could save lives without trying to make a profit with it. Yes through platforms like this we can share our knowledge freely to help humanity,we can guide eachother to enlightenment and recommend and share through our experiences and suggest what action can be taken. In terms of attending this seminar I can't imagine that this will be inexpensive,The best would be that they offer it free,As they all earn more than enough money,
Why would anyone want to be there, Is clearly to share in the experience of watching great minds come together and sharing in the vast knowledge they have accumulated,Im sure it will be electrifying.But as we all intuitively know the way to the kingdom is within,My dream would be that they teach us to teach eachother to spread this knowledge, to heal ourselves and eachother, how to stop proverty hatred,and wars, because we can,Jesus did not just come hear to die on the cross, but to tell us the kingdom is in our mist that miracles can happen thru the power and faith of spoken word.and through our love which is embedded in our hearts at birth.And yes we can make a change one drop at a time. We are more powerful than we give ourselves credit for. Allah just means God and most muslims know Gods name is jehovah,There of course other gods in other religions, We are all searching for truth and living on the thrush whole of enlightenment it can be seen and felt all around us. It's so much information out there it's confusing to know what the real truth is.The truth is Love and God is Love in manifestation.We all are trying to find our oneness our peace even if we fall from grace on our path,We are all just trying to contribute our part and understanding of being human through our experiences,One can choose to follow or be a leader of ones own example of the truth.The man that knows something knows he knows very little. Only God knows all.
I would love to attend and have the opportunity to hear each presenter as well as the reactions of the audience.
If I were only able to speak with one of the attendees, I instantly choose the Dalai Lama. His experience,wisdom, spirit and intention is essential for a well-balanced vision of the future. He has dedicated his entire life to the pursuit of peace and awareness. Learning from him along with an opportunity to discuss one's insights with him would be a magnificent gift. I wish all well who are able to be there - and spread the light to and for the rest of us.
BTW- I agree that it makes much sense to make the event as accessible to all who wish to honestly participate. One day we will come to such consenses. I, for one, may choose attendance is worth it, regardless. Namaste.
I belive that everything i have just read from our finner minds, have many things in common and i place em in this category, energy, self regconition, solutions, problems, and life itself. moreover life evolves thru the changes of the heart and the amount of energy we could put into it, just like the movie of the "secret the law of attraction". along with a book i have read called 48 laws of power by robert greene, and the idea of this movie and book would be on how to make a better mind thru positive energy and negative energy when both combine you get leverage. its like why worry about the future past or present when we have everything we need with in our minds for we live on planet earth but we really live in our minds. the source is the answer solution and insurance to life, God himself, for only he surpasses all understandings,for i quote psalm 82 verse 6 i said
"you are gods, and all of you are children of the most high. i bow to all of those who challeges life itself god bless ous all richard, bill, janet, the presidentand crew, for in god i trust.
First and foremost, I have to say I am offended that F.W. deKlerk is speaking at the conference.
Did anyone talk to Nelson Mandela about speaking? I would think he has far more to say about courage than F.W. deKlerk. Someone who headed the South African Government under Apartied should not be speaking at this conference-- beside the fact that there was nothing extraordinary about doing what any decent leader should have done-- long before 27 years. If this is a spiritual event and call for change-- lets start with recognizing the humanity of all people. If you're going to have deKlerk then have Nelson Mandela or Bishop TuTu. deKlerk is a coward along with all the rest of the South Africans who in making the transition left the country with enormous debt, and deceived the new leaders, taking all the money out of the country so that there was nothing left to rebuild and truly begin to heal a devestated population of the indigenous.
I wouldn't want to hear deKlerk's story and I wouldn't believe him anyway unless he was willing to tell the absolute truth about what happened during and after the transition-- (post apartied). I hope none of the other people you invited have such a blighted past.
For now the Dali Lama would be my choice if I could attend.
I think and this is how i live ...I read and this is how i grow...
I'm with Daniel on that.
These were really inspiring comments, and covered all the things I wanted to bring up. The thing I am most grateful for is all these people writing in, so thanks for making it possible. Please keep it going! I think Andre Afrika makes a good point about including someone like David Icke. I actually was so frustrated that humanity had made so little progress over thousands of years regardless of the messages of great people. Your average person is not a war-mongering monster,at least not sufficiently to explain our world. There had to be something else as well.
Thanks and best wishes to all.
I'm very much into the gathering of the feminine spirit and the return to balance that is happening across the world, especially online... I'm not just referring to women only , but qualities that are considered feminine, which are within everything and everybody. I LOVE being around that energy, which I see in everything that I've read and heard about this event.
I have had the pleasure of spending time with Janet Attwood and Marci Schimoff several years ago when Janet just released her first addition of "The Passion Test" at one her first retreats in her home and I look back at my top 5 passions, "hanging with people who are positive, caring, smart, fun loving and want to make a positive difference in the lives of others" is right on that list.
So it only makes sense that to be around this crowd would meet that passion BIG TIME! I would just revel in the conversation and energy in the room!
But the other thing is that the one thing that Greg talked about in the interview that really struck home was the fact that he was willing to just be himself on stage and off, share himself as a real person and do what he can to help change to a "community" based way of life and doing business is something that I have been talking about to others online and off for many years and have been severely reprimanded for many times. It is just so cool to find people like him and you Vishen, who come from that frame of mind and are actually teaching others how to do that!
I could pick your minds for hours, as I have a mission much the same, but could use some mentoring and support. I have watched how the internet has opened up women's voices and hearts and feel that NOW is the time to ramp it up! Especially now with the newest generation of women in my family arriving to the scene! I want a positive future for her, ya know?
This is an amazing line up and I will find a way to come and experience the vibration before I head back to Australia! Thanks to Janet for sending me your way!
Hi,
I have met Richard Branson, he is truly amazing, so unpretentious, i really enjoyed his parents and the way Richard was more interested in playing hide and seek with the youth that he had just built a college for than stand around sipping drinks with all the business men in their suits. He is a child at heart and lives for adventure and making things happen for the better of those who would not normally have the chance. Well done Richard.
