The Official Newsletter of The Peace Chime Movement™
The Vibration of Peace

What if a system could be developed that measured the energy of various emotions— shame or guilt or fear or anger or acceptance or love or joy or peace? How valuable would this be in shifting us from undesirable emotional patterns, into patterns that we desire. Mother Teresa wrote, '…spread joy, love and compassion…..The fruit of these three is peace.'

David Hawkins, M.D., Ph.D. over a period of 20 years compiled such intensive research involving thousands of subjects and millions of calibrations. In his book, 'Power vs. Force', he details how the research was gathered, and what the outcomes are of its application. Dr. Hawkins says that we are, after all, a part of the universe 'in which everything is connected to everything else.' Awareness of the vibrational energy of various emotions, holds the key to releasing what we don’t want, and replacing it with what we desire.

According to Dr. Hawkins, shame carries an energy level of 20, fear of 100, anger of 150, and pride of 175. Conversely the energy level of courage is 200, love is 500, joy is 540, and peace is 600. All levels below 200 are considered destructive to the individual and to society (since we are connected to everything else.) All levels above 200, courage, however, are constructive and beneficial to society.

At all levels below 200, the individual feels disempowered. If you have ever felt ashamed, guilty, afraid, or angry, you understand this principle. The dividing line where everything shifts is courage at 200. Courage is the first level of empowerment. With courage, the individual takes responsibility for what has gone on in his/her life, and begins to try new things. He/she sees life as exciting, challenging and stimulating. Courage carries with it the tools to neutralize the lower emotions below it, and to transcend to the higher vibrations of acceptance, joy, love, and peace.

Gandhi said, 'We must be the world we want to create'. If we desire to live in a world of peace, we must first be peace. The Bible says that everything in the world is twice created. What does this mean? Everything is first created in our mind as an idea, and then brought into reality around us. So in order to be peace, we must first decide that we want to be peace, then look at ways in which we can bring peace to ourselves. This may be done by making some changes in our lives—creating a new task or activity, or getting rid of something in our lives that is not peaceful.

May the spirit of peace be with you on your journey,

Story of the Month:

Edward Lorenz was a mathematician and meteorologist at MIT who loved to study weather. In 1961 Lorenz used a computer to construct a mathematical model of weather conditions. In a paper given to the New York Academy of Sciences in 1963, Lorenz reported, 'If the theory were correct, one flap of a seagull’s wings would be enough to alter the course of the weather forever.' In 1972 at a meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Washington, he gave a talk entitled, 'Predictability: Does the Flap of a Butterfly’s Wings in Brazil set off a Tornado in Texas?' If the flap of a butterfly’s wing can have a powerful ripple effect on our planet, how much power does each of us hold in affecting changes in our world.

Peace Tip of the Month:

Decide TODAY on one thing that you can change in your life to create more peace. It could be eliminating some activity that does not make you happy. It could be adding some quiet time for yourself to just be. It could be finding a way to express more of your creativity. It could be about finding ways to have more fun. Whatever it is that will give you more peace, make it a part of your life today.

Project Prosperity - http://www.projectprosperity.org – Founded by Elyse Hope Killoran, the mission of Project Prosperity is well-aligned with the promotion of peace. Once a critical mass of people are clear that ‘there is enough to go around’, conflicts over land, power and resources will become a thing of the past.

Beginning on Monday, January 13, hundreds of people from all over the globe will be embarking on a three week “virtual spending spree” with clear instructions on how to use the experience to activate their own ability to create “prosperity from the inside-out.” It is an enlightening experience and lots of fun.
