From Calgary, Alberta, Canada: I think this is great, our world, my world certainly needs to start focusing on the positive. I will definitely take steps to filter out the negative in my world. Thanks!

From Crescent Valley, BC, Canada: I read about this experiment in "The Last Days of Ancient Sunlight" and I was moved and excited that we can come together in this way to change world consciousness. I believe that a shift to a higher awareness is happening now. But there is an urgency if we are to save the planet. There is huge power when a group comes together in love and light, especially through the power of love. Together we can indeed bring peace to the world. Blessings to all!

From Sandston, Virginia, USA: I recently meditated on the "differences" between the "Forest of Trees and the Forest of Humanity"--both of the same Creator, Intelligence, Law, but seeing how it is used in humanity to appear different, while the only Creator, Intelligence, Law is expressing. As I look at the diversity of Nature and the Universe, I only see purpose and harmony as the only Law that is present! I Know the same is also Consciously available to Humankind and it is not only important but imperative that we learn to live in harmony with each other, and with our Mother Earth, our Life Support System. It is time for our Presence of Unity, Peace AS Love as the Alternative that has not heretofore been tried AND It is time to bring it forth! And the more of us the "world" sees, they may start thinking that this movement is growing and now they might be encouraged to "give it a try". With Love & Appreciation for all You are Be/Doing.

From North Syracuse, New York, USA: I just learned of this and I must say I am disappointed that after nine years you haven't reached the goal of 80,000. I congratulate you on persistence and fortitude and conviction.

From Nobleboro, Maine, USA: The US is spending trillions on new weapons. Love is free to give away and harms noone. How difficult is the choice?

Kula, Hawaii, USA: What a blessing you are. Isn't it amazing that the most simple truths need to be said outloud and then suddenly we don't feel alone.  Thank you for reminding people of what they already know underneath all the noise the fear.  Mahalo Nui Loa (Thank you from the depths of my heart) for touching my grateful heart.

From Patchogue, New York, USA: I was so pleasantly surprised to see notice about this in a Catholic Church bulletin. It is with a sincere and hopeful heart that I sign on to this ministry. Thank you for this opportunity to participate in such a wonderful way. God bless. Peace and All Good,

From Yellow Springs, Ohio, USA: Thank you for this wonderful opportunity to share group energy, and remind me to shift my focus towards loving, positive thoughts on a daily basis.

From Leakesville, Mississippi, USA: What impressed me with your site was the lack of negative judgement toward anyone. This is so very important in sending out prevailing love! I also like the prayer for our world leaders. I have forwared your web address and invited friends to visit your website with hopes they will join. I truly believe in the power of critical mass.

From Ljubljana, Slovenia: It's working already!! :) Our president Janez Drnovsek started to spread positive thinking colored with love. He continues to channel his energy into political projects: from trips aimed at solving the Darfur crisis, to domestic issues such as pardoning convicts and founding the Movement for Peace and Development. Latest news on: http://www.sloveniatimes.com/ Two of his quotes: "One of the fundamental questions of today's world is undoubtedly the question of equitable globalization." "Today the fate of humankind is even more crucially linked than ever before. The boundaries between the problems of "others" and "our" problems are being increasingly erased." -- He is speaking about the "critical mass" also and I really believe that we are coming close to it!  Love for all from sLOVEnia!

From Lisbon, Portugal: Today, my 10 year old son was becoming aggressive and I whispered to his hear "só o amor prevalece" (only love will prevail, in Portuguese). He looked at me, surprised, then smiled and kissed me. Later tonight, he lit a few candles and an incense, put on an Indian classical music (tribute to Gandhi) and stayed unusually calm for the rest of the evening until he went to bed and fell easily asleep. My 8 year old son was born in 1997, year of the beginning of the experiment. So, my children are an inspiration and I dedicate my signing up to them. Thank you for bringing love into our home. Sometimes, daily life contaminates us with negative energy, whitch is not always easy to recycle. Today, your work helped us. So I wrote on a window glass, with a permanent marker, in a wave shapped phrase, ONLY LOVE WILL PREVAIL, both in english and portuguese, to ensure that love will stay with us and will pass on behond us. May peace be with us all.

From Colquitt, Georgia, USA : Carol. I have the "Only Love Prevails" bumper sticker on my car and this week-end my niece commented on it. Do you have any available? I would like to order 20. This mantra continues to bless me. Whenever I am in a difficult situation I remind myself "Only Love Prevails" and the tensiion eases and I can focus on the important work to be done. Thank You Again. (Note: Only Love Prevails bumper stickers are available in lots of 10 for $5.00 including postage from Open Heart Press. Contact Carol Hansen Grey for details.)

From Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada: This is an unbelievable thing that has come across me at this point int time in my life. I always talk about how our media, marketing and even our peers are blindedly being guided by negativety and the importance of being better than everyone else. Like the American dream we are are living with ER: BiggER BettER FastER StrongER...always in a competitive mindset, and in turn is negative. I am so happy to sign up and be apart of this organization to hopefully make a difference and get the word out that LOVE WILL ALWAYS PREVAIL!!

From Newburgh, Indiana, USA: I am glad to see someone putting the actual numbers to work. Dr. Stephen Hawkins estimates similar effects when we reach "critical mass." I look forward to tracking our progress. Thanks for doing this.

From Cape Town, South Africa: Thank you for the opportunity to co-create that which we truly are, namely Divinity personified. It is time and we are ready. Let us together deliver and receive our eternal truth. LOVE!

From Sugar Land, Texas, USA: What a great idea. I thank the organizers and applaud the participants. It is perfect timing for me, because I am currently experimenting on LENT (Let's Eliminate Negative Thinking) during this Lent season. I am fasting on negative thingking for 40 days. This will augment my own personal experiment by affirming "Only Love Prevails" in the process and extending the 40 days to forever.

From Sint-Gillis-Waas, Belgium: Thank you very much for this beautiful experiment! I hope the shift works, only repeating "only love prevails" as a mantra, made me feel better!keep up the good work people and let's transform our world!!!! With Love and Light and Power and Wisdom!

From Dripping Springs, Texas, USA: Thank you, thank you. I love you. You have sucessfully and beautifully articulated the deepest knowing of my heart (and the hearts of thousands!) I am delighted and honored beyond words to participate.

From San Jose, Costa Rica: excellent experiment, thinking positively attracts positive things in your life!!!!!!!

From Kongens Lyngby, Copenhagen, Denmark: Dear Carol! Thanks for your good initiative and continuing work on world peace.It is funny for me, that I have done your suggested practise for many years, so it\'s about time I signed up! I have some comments... In general we have 2 states we can be in: Our natural state of Love & Attention (as newborn human beings) or the state of Fear & Violence (from unrealised traumas). When I act in critical situations, I consider whether I am acting out of love or fear. I am making songs about love and fear, e.g. "It\'s-a-dam bush of fear!" and songs for parents and lovers. I highly recommend LAUGHING WITH OUR FEAR and CRYING OUR LOSSES as the laughter therapist Dr. Annette Goodheart recommends in her book "Laughter Therapy -how to laugh about everything in our lifes that isn't really funny!" (www.laughtercoach.com)  I wish you laughter and love. www.lansner.dk

From Cambria, California, USA: Thank you for your work towards peace for all. I am, and will continue, working within my heart and extending this work outwards to others. It is my sincere feeling that peace can only be attained worldwide when we have found it in our own hearts.

From London, United Kingdom: Having meditated for peace and harmony throughout the world for many years, I am overjoyed to learn about this international peace initiative. Yes, love will certainly prevail because God is love. Each one of us is made in that same image; it's just that we have all forgotten and need reawakening to our eternal truth. Om shanti.

From Alton, Illinois, USA: I can't believe there are only 27,000+ people signed up since this started in 1997. I always thought the 'group' was larger than this. We obviously have much work to do!

From Auckland, New Zealand: I think this a wonderful idea, and something I truly believe in. I have always avoided watching the news, and reading horror stories for this very reason. Good luck!

From Chase, Michigan, USA: I am delighted to have this opportunity! Gathering eneough people together to make the critical mass for world peace has for a long time been a desire of mine that I had no idea how to acheive! Now I can be a part of that dream. Thank you!

From Albert Lea, Minnesota, USA: This has worked for me. In 1994 I took a meditation class and for 1 week our assignment was to notice the toxic things we put into our body. I was addicted to the nightly tv news. I recognized the toxicity of that hour+ every day. I stopped tv and do not read any print news although I do get some emails from organizations I subscribe to with news content. I have been more peaceful and positive in my life over the past 12 years. Thanks for your efforts.

From Santa Rosa, California, USA: A wonderful strategy! Simple and most effective both personally and globally. Thank you.

From Minsk, Belarus: All my family wants to take part in this experiment: I, my wife and 2 daughters.

From Morgantown, West Virgina, USA: This is such a blessing to be a part of this, and to recognize that peace is growing amongst us. Thank you and blessings. Only Love Prevails.

From Kfar Clil, Israel: Thank you for your work. I do the same in Jerusalem and Israel. We can only win, with love

From Stamford, Connecticut, USA: Thank you. Saying or thinking "Only Love Prevails" in the face of negativity gives me something positive that I can instantly do. I believe it will make a difference.....in me. I also believe that peace begins with me.

From Boulder, Colorado, USA: A wonderful idea! Individuals do make a difference! I agree that the media is a predominantly negative force...I worked in TV news for 10 years and saw the need to remove myself rom that element of our culture. Now I stay away from TV as a rule, and hope that my positive thoughts and love make a far better contribution to our world. Only love prevails.

From Barcelona, Spain: It's a fantastic idea to go beyond "good and evil" polarities which have caused so many harm and absurd fanaticisms and misunderstandings and to focus on Love, and the Open Heart. My own inner research is telling me that this conscious state of "heartful love" is the answer for many of our today's hatred and separative images that we have towards each other and the environment. Congratulations!

Fom Phoenix, Arizona, USA: We are all here for a reason and we all matter. I am here to make a difference and to the best of my abilities, I choose peace. By seing only peace, I am willing to be a channel of peace.

From The Woodlands, Texas, USA: I'm in for ME first. If I can learn to remind myself that ONLY LOVE PREVAILS when someone is rude, hurtful or defaming toward me, then I have created the transformation I need in my life right now. It is easier for me to declare ONLY LOVE PREVAILS when I am not attached to the person or the situation. When I have mastered my own detachment to negativity toward others, then I will be better equipped to take a STAND for the world at large!

From Mayen, Germany: Thank you for creating this experiment. I am practicing it since some time, especially after reading a book called "leide nicht - liebe". I am going to give the information to others and hope we will reach the number of 80.000 soon.

From Denver, Colorado, USA: What a awesome idea! I have been picking and choosing what news I want to hear for a long time now. Not what they want to sell us. I truly believe that 1 or 1 million can make a difference in the world. Now more then any other time, in this universe we need World Peace. I belong to a drum circle here and we drum with universal intentions, we lead each round with the Mother Drum, that is where the person standing in the lead position makes the intention, the last round of the night is the Healing Round, we softly call out names of the people that need healing, spiritualy, mentally, physcially what ever it maybe.

From Haiku, Hawaii, USA : I've been living like this for 7 years-- no media and still I hear what ever is neccesery but no pollution--no TV in the house just DVDs of my choosing. It is so much happier. Love does prevail!

From Sydney, Australia: For the last ten years I have been writing articles on all the terrible and obscene actions of politicians, corporations, financial institutions, media manipulations and religious misinformation. All the things that have brought the world to this sad state that we are currently experiencing. Although I have offered a sound and rational cure for all the problems that we face, in an article titled "Education is the Key", I have not realised until I visited your website just what was missing from my writings; "Inspiration". I, myself have always been inspired with the belief that humanity is capable of re-inventing itself in the form of a truly civilised society, however until now I have been blind to the fact that in order to really reach people, to grab their attention and to hold it, they also need to be inspired. To this end I intend to edit the two books that I am currently working on, to include inspirational messages from beginning to end. Thanks to you.

From Zaqaziq, Egypt: I really like your site, I love peace and hope that it will prevail on all the world. I'm a Muslim and one meaning of Islam is PEACE :) And our greetings is Salamu Alykom whick means Peace be upon you.

From Yellow Springs, Ohio, USA: Thank you for this wonderful opportunity to share group energy, and remind me to shift my focus towards loving, positive thoughts on a daily basis.

From Tel-Aviv, Israel: Thank you for this amazing service to humanity. I will send your website to all my friends so whoever wish to sign - will do so as well. Shalom - peace and love prevails on Earth always !!!!

From Mankato, Minnesota, USA: What A Wonderful Web site!! I don't open very many e-mail links as they usually are long and don't have much meaning. However I could not resist this one & immediately couldn't wait to see what this experiment is!! Sure glad I checked out this site!! The process is so simple yet so VERY POWERFUL on a world level!! Brilliant, Brilliant, I'm proud to be a part of this world changing experiment!!!  I also would like to share that you are right about the media mainly spreading fear and "negative energy". I recently traveled to Israel and had an Amazing journey!! I only experienced peace and wonderful, gracious energy from the people living there!! I never once felt fearful, and have only positive things to say about my Israel experiences!! It is really too bad the majority of people only believe what the media portrays about this amazingly peaceful "Holy Land"!! I like to share my experience with as many people as possible and encourage traveling to this beautiful country!! (as everyone I know thought I was crazy to go there cuz it is so "Dangerous") I did not want to leave!! I will definitely travel there again and hope to bring many more people so they too may experience what Israel is really about: PEACE & LOVE (in my opinion). Thank-you for spreading LOVE May there be PEACE ON EARTH

From Truro, Cornwall, England: Great idea ... I heard about you in Thom Hartmann's "The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight" I will do what I can to network you to others and hopefully we will raise the pitiful numbers of UK participants ... there are more Lightworkers than THAT here LOL!!! I am amazed that we have not yet reached critical mass!!! Thank you for doing this .. I appreciate and support your efforts and hard work.

From Glenwood Springs, Colorado, USA: What a wonderful effort...and EVERYONE can be a part of this change in perception and make a difference. Thank you for your invitation to be a participant and spread the idea!

From Johor Bahru, Malaysia: I think you are doing a great job and I am sending this message to everyone in my address book....let us spread the positive vibrations to as many as we can and help wipe out negativity and create more love. Cheers and keep up the great work.

From Salt Lake City, Utah, USA: What a wonderful idea. Every little pocket of love will add to the whole. How joyful it feels to be a part of this.

From Auckland, New Zealand: What a fabulous idea. I fully support this and will tell many others about it and hope that they will sign up as well. Best of luck for the ongoing endeavour.

From Brighton,United Kingdom: Well done, what an amazing concept, I am tingling all over in anticipation of what you are about to achieve. love and peace.

From Los Alamos, New Mexico, USA: Thank you so much for this powerful reminder that we can each choose to make peace a reality in our lives each day and at the same time benefit the whole planet by changing our OWN negative thinking/experience and acknowledging the truth: ONLY LOVE PREVAILS! Bless you.

From Chiba, Japan: Your idea sounds cool and helpful! I hope you will reach your goal very soon... I will forward your website to my friends as well. I hope world us getting better with peaceful love.

From Adelaide, Australia: I always say whatever the question "Love is the Answer" so I guess I've been doing ok on my own with the first part of the experiment and already believe that the media shows too much bad news and not enough good so I am happy to be a part of this experiment.

From Ipswich, Massachusetts, USA: I would be very interested in sharing this with many friends. I believe in your theory and am so glad the experiment has come my way. I believe it was sent to me from the universe as I did not recognise the senders name. Thank-You

From Buenos Aires, Argentina: I completely agree with everything you say here. I`m aware of how energy works, I work everyday with my thoughts trying to change bad for good, negative by positive ones. I`m convinced that I cannot change the whole word but if we are enough people changing our minds we can do a lot.

From Grants Pass, Oregon, USA: Thank you! I am grateful to find this site. I will share it with our spiritual community in Medford, OR Center for Spiritual Living

From Gainesville, Florida, USA: This is a beautiful idea...Just yesterday I was worrying about the divisions being created over politics and differing opinions. Now, I just have to ask myself, "What can I do right now in this moment to contribute to unity, to peace?" Every moment is an opportunity to Love.

Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, USA: This was so refreshing to see the large number of participants, and all of the comments written before me. Wow. I am a healer and often feel that my contribution is so small. To see the comments from so many other Light Workers re-affirms that it all starts within. What I do does make a difference, one person at a time... and, yes! Only Love Prevails!!! Aloha! and Mahalo! for this website and positive movement of energy.

Boulder, Colorado, USA: Yes, this notion of love prevails needs to be shared. I want good for all. Sometimes I struggle because I am not accepted as part of the group or blamed by others for the giving I do, and am astononished by this reaction. I need to learn not to be attached to the negative reactions of others who try to put me down for the good I do. Often I feel like there is a constant tug between good and evil. I only want to align myself with good.

Amsterdam, Netherlands: Check out www.allone.nl on the international day of peace, 21st of september, we organise a fun and meaningful day on the theme peace. we combine that with an educational package on peace at schools where kids make their own plays and paintings on the theme.

Burlington, Vermont, USA: I have been doing a similar practice using reiki symbols already and I am glad to be part of such a big group of peacemakers now. Love and Peace to each and every one of you!

Gatineau, QC, Canada: excellent experiment and one in which I am proud to participate. There is a similar initiative on the part of the TM people and David Lynch in which they are building "Peace palaces" throughout the world and intend on building a University of World Peace". Maybe a link between the two initiatives would speed the realization of your goals.

Rockarp, Sweden: Thank You! My first thought when I woke up today was "there should be a news agency that reports news about all the beautiful things that happen in the world".

Lockport, Manitoba, Canada: Thank you - I have been utilizing a similar idea for many years and I am one who does not participate in viewing the news as I have always felt it was bias and tended toward sensationalism by generally offering news that was degrading to humankind and not of life-enhancement. So I play with the focus of upliftment for I believe that what I focus on is what I create in my life and then share with the lives of all others. In joy and gratitude. Thank you for taking the time to put this World Peace Experiment together

Burbank, California, USA (originially from Norway): What a beautiful concept! I am proud and happy to be a part of this and will forward invitations to all my friends and aquaintances. Love WILL prevail! I am surprised though, that it started back in 1997 and haven't reached the 80.000 yet...Then I forget where I found the information, it was on a piece of paper (I am a note-person, always making notes) but it doesn't really matter because everything is happening in the right time and so on. Thank you for doing this. I send you and all of humanity my greates love.

Rosarito Beach, Mexico: My friend that signed-up yesterday told me of this great site and thought last night at dinner. Today we have used the Only Love Prevails several times in situations and it really puts the situatin in positive light. Thank you and let's keep make the world a happier place to live.

Vancouver, Washington, USA: Only love prevails---we are all One Life of Infinite Love---beyond mind or description---a oneness that is so powerful, that it cannot be spoken of. Without the Infinity of Love, nobody could be said to exist. Thank you for this opportunity to say "only love prevails." Peace and Love

Brisbane, Australia: Thank you for the work you are doing to encourage us all to be more peaceful in our own beings, thus bringing more peace into the world.

Traverse City, Michigan, USA: The theme of my church's annual All Music Service last month (December 2005) was peace. One of the songs our vocal ensemble sang was "When There Is Light In The Soul" which was written by a fellow named Tom Shea. The lyrics of the song go something like this:

When there is light in the soul there will be beauty in the person.
When there is beauty in the person there will be harmony in the home.
When there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation.
When there is order in the nation there will be peace in the world.

Thank you for creating the World Peace Experiment. I am using 'Only Love Prevails' to keep light in my soul... and help create peace in the world.

Brisbane, Australia: Fantastic experiment - it is an honour to be invited to participate. I will send out your website to all family and friends to alert them of their ability to contribute positively to collective consciousness and experience heaven on earth. Thank you.

From Rochester, New York, USA: I'm excited about this & have been wanting to organize and/or participate in some type of world peace experiment over the last 20 years. About 1990 it was going to be a Rainbow Walk Around the World, but it did not materialize though one man did start walking....but he gave up when no one joined him for more than a few miles.

Winter Park, Florida, USA: It is the energy of perception that creates; if we proclaim an energy as evil, so it is. It we proclaim it as just energy and see it also as a spark of God filled with goodness, light and love, so it is and you have just helped that energy to reach its highest potential!

Isle-of-Whithorn, Scotland: May this year be the beginning of peace within us all......thus radiating out to All.....may all beings be happy.....

Longwood, Florida, USA: I think it would be a great idea for a song to be written, recorded and distributed titled "Only Love Prevails", and have everyone ALL OVER THE WORLD SINGING IT, all the radio stations playing it, etc! Any good songwriters out there? (Note from Carol: A song HAS been written and recorded by my dear friend Carole Isis called Only Love Prevails. She wrote it as a theme song for the World Peace Experiment. You can read the lyrics to the song in our Inspired Writings and at Carole's website: caroleisis.com/onlylove.html where she also has a sound clip!)

Scottsdale, Arizonia, USA: The paths to Spirit are many. Love is Spirit. Peace is Spirit. To paraphrase St. Francis: "Spirit, make us instruments of your peace. Where there is hatred, let us sow love."

Santa Clara, California, USA: I really liked your step 2- I did step 2 five years ago and life has been much happier for me. Of course, I made myself aware of the basics of tragedies such as 9/11, the invasion of Iraq, the tsunamis and other natural disasters, but I refused to be drawn into watching the media's sensationalized view of it all. Life is good.

Southaven, Mississippi, USA: My name is Hannah.  I happened onto your site.  I am a Native American grandmother. (Minneconjou)  My medicine man gave me a pipe 12 years ago.  Until I moved to Mississippi I poured water in the sacred Inipi.  I work with herbal medicine and other ways to help people with their health.  I would like to join in your experiment.  Aho Mi' takuye' Oyasin

From Washington, DC, USA: I think this is a great idea and am happy to participate. A friend and I were sitting around one night being peaceful and talking about the news AND HOW DISTORTED IT IS and we thought there should be a newspaper called "The Good News". A paper,a show--website---or all three where people could tune into whats happehing in the world that's good. I still think its a great idea!

From Kerikeri, New Zealand: Good luck getting the numbers you need! Already started say Only Love Prevails before I finished filling out the form.

From San Joaquin, Venezuela: This is a wonderful experiment! I work with energy healing and sound healing and will participate fully in it!

From Matawan, New Jersey, USA: Thank you for this opportunity. This is exactly where I need to be for me and the lives of people who I touch. I work in a new age store doing arch angels readings and healings and will pass this on to as many as I can. deffinetley count me in!!

From Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA: Thank you for starting an orgaization such as this. I have forwarded this info to others and hopefully they will join. I am a firm believer that if there are enough of us of the same mind, we can make a difference. And it truly starts with each individual on the inside. Peace be with you and about you.

From Ocean Springs, Mississippi, USA: Thank you so much for this offer. I have been doing a world peace meditation at our local bookstore for 2 years now. We are the change that we have been looking for. Only love prevails. Blessings

From Vienna, Austria: Hi there, this is just what I need right now to find my way out of a self created "negative thinking spiral". I'm pretty good in thinking negatively, so this will be a hard lesson for me and a real challenge, but I'll do it. Love the idea of changing the world or better people's mentality that way - thanks for that one! Only love prevails!

From Calgary, Canada: I am very committed to World Peace and Connection of all to this. I have recorded a CD called Woodstock and 50% goes to Amnesty International. Please go to www.sweetharmonyonline.com to find it. I am organizing Unique World Peace Concerts in North America. Sept 11 05 is my first one in Calgary Canada. Peace!

From Escondido, California, USA: I am definately for Peace and Love and into creating them a positive and loving way! I am Love and know that only Love Prevails!

From Corvallis, Oregon, USA: How wonderful to be a part of changing our consciousness. I am very excited to experience the changes that will be forthcoming. I will make this my personal mantra and will spread its energy around to my "ten thousand things..." May love prevail!

From ljubljana, Slovenia: I think its very good idea. I think it is time for people to turn to love, to live love and give love. Mother earth needs our commitment, over will to live out of love. We were born from love and love is only real power who can change everything. I hope there are lot of people in the world who are searching for more in their lives than just living in shadows. I know we will make it. With love everything is possibile. Thanks for doing this project

From Sedona, Arizona, USA: I need to do this as much as you/we need me and another 79,000 to do it. So let's get to it!

From San Francisco, California, USA : I'd like to share a saying with you that came thru my pen. Feel free to share it. 'Tread Peacefully Earth's Shores for Within its Bosom Lie the Newborn Souls of Tomorrow and all the Spirits of Yesterdays' Judy Jones

From Olathe, Kansas, USA: Peace begins within. We are Love. Love is the very essence of our beings. As we express the truth of our being, we become Love in Action. As we heal ourselves from within we begin to heal the world. What we are remembering is that we are not separate. We are one. I am happy to join this experiment as part of the whole. Namaste

From Mt. Shasta, California, USA: I have been doing this and visualizing a web of light servers around the world so am delighted to join in!

From Houston, Texas, USA: Thank you for the opportunity. Together we can change the world.

From Honolulu, Hawaii, USA: THANK YOU for initiating this wonderful experiment!! I'm sure you will find that there are MANY more of us than some people expect ... spreading the PEACE & ACCEPTENCE to the world is what makes a huge difference! THANX!!

From Lake Forest Park, Washington, USA: As it is spoken, so it is created. As it is spoken, so it shall become. It is done. Only Love Prevails. It is done. It is done.

From Fitchburg, Wisconsin, USA: Thank you so much for this work of art, this work of peace.

From Newcastle, England: I think this site is truly inspiring. The world needs more love and care. Me and my classmates at St Mary's Primary love your site. Peace and love is all we need to make the world a better place. And we need to unite together and shine our candle in that darkness. We need to overflow that glass and meet in God's paradise after all Love is God's Paradise.! (PS. I am 10 years old).

From Manchester, England: This website has really changed my life and opinions. Lots of love from Alice (age 11). I can't believe that so many people are handing out millions of dollars to buy guns. Think about it. If you were a lonely child out there waiting to be killed by us, how would you feel? So, SAY NO TO ALL THESE GUNS AND WEAPONS. It's UNFAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only Love Prevails

From Cullercoats, England: What an inspiring site me and my class are all joining and we're 11 years old.

From Karachi, Pakistan: PEACE Through MUSIC is my Aim. Only Love Prevails.

From Kiryat ono, Israel: May Peace Prevail on Earth! Yishre Shalom Aley Adamot! A Salam Lil‚Allam Ajma! Infinite gratitude for this marvelous initiation! As a peace seeker who lives in Israel and for almost 2 decades involved with bridging the stormy water between Israelis and Palestinian I congratulate each and any initiative radiating positive actions, with no judging nor knowing‚ who is right and who is wrong. My belief is that we are all ONE and that first and utmost - peace dwells in the heart--all hearts! In Oneness and infinite loving gratitude

From Benin, Nigeria: I strongly beleive that the world could come together as one.

From Belmar, New Jersey, USA: I am very excited about this and can't wait to see the results of people coming together for love. The world needs more people focusing on love and peace. When I say my prayers every night I wish people to find peace withing themselves, because without inner peace how are we ever going to find outer peace? I am letting many people know about this. Peace and love to you all.

From Brandford, UK: This is just one of many love initiatives I am involved in - please be aware that there are many other activities spreading love and that we will prevail over those spreading anything other than love. I love you all. I love all souls. I love the world.

From Olathe, Kansas, USA: I gave up the media shortly after 9-11--and it's one of the best decisions I've made. On occassion I want to catch the weather or traffic report on TV and within 5 minutes I'm depressed listenin to fires, police chases and more.

From Littleton, Colorado USA: Thank you for trying this, for blessing the world, for inviting everyone. How thrilling to know we care.

From Chatham, Massachusetts, USA: This is a simple and wonderful idea. And the simplicity of it is what will make it work. We already have the blessing of the Universe.

From London, England: I teach peace and work for peace within and in the outer in numerous ways with numerous people. I am certain that we will move faster toward Peace on Earth if we pay attention to the care and nurturing of pregnant and birthing women. PEACE ON EARTH BEGINS BEFORE BIRTH!

From Royal Oak, Michigan USA: Righteous idea here. I will be adding this "Only Love Prevails" mantra into my meditation. I already avoid some media exposure; aside from keeping myself informed, I generally don't watch/read the news. Local news is worst, especially here in Detroit, it's all about murders and such. Just kind of saps your soul to watch it. But it's consumer driven, we must not demand to see horror stories anymore. Let us choose love and peace instead. :-)

From Copenhagen, Denmark: All attempts to bring order to the world through force, destruction, and fear of punishment are unacceptable. The only way is to bring the peace from within yourself into the world. The only enemy worth conquering is your own fear. Gradually, as this fear is reduced, you will seriously recognize your inner reality as being completely at peace. This peace only wants one thing. It wants to recognize itself in everyone. So how can the World not end up being peaceful? It's up to you. (www.self-and-body.dk)

From Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa: Wonderful idea. I have heard of the 100 monkey theory and believe that, if it can work on monkeys, logically it stands to reason that it will work on humans! I think that this process is very slowly happening all over the world anyway, but I do believe that a project such as this, which actively gets people involved, can only speed up the process. Great! :-)

From London, England: I guess the world needs more love. in london people are so busy - and things are superficial - its hard to feel love, but love is all there is really! i think this is a good idea, power to the people.

From Jerusalem, Israel: Just want to say that the second criteria of filtering the media information is already done by me in the last two years naturally although it is a challange to do so in Israel.

From Lamma Island, Hong Kong: I resonate with what you say and this experiment. I have protected myself from TV and newspaper (excepet the 'positive news'!) for 15 years. Only Love Prvevails

From Lacon, Illinois, USA: I think this will be very cool. Thank you for doing it. We need all the help we can get at this time.

Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada: Thank you first of ALL for the work you are doing and secondly, but most importantly, I think it imperative to a positive outlook on third dimensional views, overcoming the idea that we are conditioned by our perception that life in a polarized reality is given contrast by the dark and the light, or Good and evil.True meaning in the higher realms is that colour gives contrast, not black and white. I am reminded of the time earlier in the 20th century when black and white TV was all that was available to us. Of course we graduated to colour TV and the progression seems so self evident that it amazes me that we have for the most part accepted the less evolved idea that there is no good without evil. To realize this truth is to cut oneself free from the lesser proposition.

From Lebanon, Missouri, USA: Hi! I'm honored to be part of your experiment and of this wonderful peace family. ONLY LOVE PREVAILS! I would like to recommend a site called Triangles of Light also where people form triangles and agree to "click on" their star and say the Great Invocation every day.

From Berlin, Germany: I am very glad to know about your initiative! This is just the way to look at the world I try to teach my mediation students! I will tell all my friends and students about it. Just to show, how I am trying to do something against the “Negativity Energy” of the media: in my website I created a Newsletter part with “TIRAMISU” – the hopeful and sucessfully solved conflict stories! (italian: tiramisu is translated something like :push me up). Created to have some really energy-bringing storys ready for all of us “peace workers” in moments of depression and little hope. I will ask the german-canadian friend who told me about your initiative to translate these storys into English. And I would be very glad to receive storys from people who participate in your initiative. Thanks to all of you!

From Magaliesburg, NW Province, South Africa: Hi there! A mate sent me your details and I love it! I’m 38 and in recent years the “love bug” has been approcahing me. I especially had a nemesis over new year and talked to a few people about this. I said - there’s basically only 2 things in life - love and fear. People said it was hard to always choose the path of love, as it’s so much easier (and conditioned within us) to be judgmental, suspicious etc etc of others. But we try... Please sign me up for 100th monkey! I’m practising all the time!

From Australia: I am signing up on behalf of myself and two daughters. I know that they wish for world peace too. We have so much agony and pain in our world, it is just so unfair. We have an inbalance of good fortune - not that I deny a person the pleasure of reaping their rewards after hard work, but....how much food can a person eat, how many clothes can we wear, how big a house do we need to sleep in - how many cars does a person need... We have forgotten our fellow human being - as citizens of the world we have an obligation to help each other and achieve world peace. Love and good health

From Grandview, MO, USA, Many blessings upon your vision of gathering those that affirm Love in this world! I am a Priestess and Minister in the Madonna Ministry-A Temple Without Walls. Please use my name as it will benefit your vision. -- Reverend Kim Oursler

From Western Australia: I would love to be part of your experiment I felt better just reading your website which was passed on to me by Michael Redshirt (Semchison).....who we have just had the pleasure of his company .....he stayed with us for four days & he bought a great spirit with him.....I honor your humaness with respect

From Ohio, USA: Hello! I am happy to be a part of a connective positive movement like this. Shortly after hearing about it, I had this real negative energy about vacuuming. I repeated the montra, “Only Love Prevails,” and it was a snap to get started. PS. I went to high school at Our Lady of Providence Academy, OLP for short!

From Ontario, Canada: I have used "Only Love Prevails" so many times since joining the World Peace Experiment and I can testify that IT WORKS! When I am feeling overwhelmed by any negative emotion I repeat the phrase and peace comes to the situation immediately. Thank you many times over for sharing with me.

From Austin, Texas: You have contacted the International Institute of Culture and Language, a tiny worldpeace nonprofit determined to suffuse the planet with truth in place of ignorance, love in place of hatred, and peace in place of violence. Your goal to get a critical mass of people together is consonant with our own themes; therefore I the General Director of IICL seek at this time, your permission to copy your text into our Six Months' Activity Report as one of the great things that has happened to us since the New Year of 2003.

From Finland: I am a peaceful-minded woman from Finland,
and I am actually thinking as you are :). I nearly don't read newsletters nor see the news at the TV cause I am so tired of the bad news I always see! I am one founder of an online group of Angels on the Earth and member of others and I am trying to make good and spread love within our members and all other friends I have online and offline! This your project will not be anything new to me so I can be one amongst you all

From Sedona, Arizona: Spiritual love has always been at the heart of the world's religions. Perhaps because of this, the word humanity has a positive connotation, and that we have not yet completely inniliated ourselves. However,love without action can lead to stagnation such as that of the rigid cast system that prevailed in Inda for so long. It took the love and action of Ghandi to lead to positive change. So love without action may not be enough.

My response: Regarding your comments that "love without action may not be enough" I'd like to suggest to you that participating in the World Peace Experiment is indeed an action... one that requires us to pay attention to our thoughts, judgments and influences (an action in and of itself) and then to say the words "only love prevails" whenever we perceive negativity (again another action). These actions actually change our thinking and as we change we, through a ripple effect actually start a change in those around us.

From Schaumburg, Illinois: And count me among your 80,000. Wisdom dictates that one remains aware of those who may not share this enlightened view. There is a place where we can be positive, cleanse ourselves and still be grounded in a reality that is made of all ranges of perceptions and reactions. And for everyone's sake, we should not forget we may have to deal directly or indirectly with those of extreme and/or just different perceptions. If a "wish were a prayer" and "thoughts are things" can keep us on a positive track and spoke out to all whose lives we touch this will radiate the true white and loving light beyond what we might dare believe...why stop at 80,000?

 

From Burleson, Texas: I would like to give this a try. I have been thinking negative thoughts and have been watching the news media religously to "find out what is happening in the world". I don't want to be an ostrich and stick my head in the sand as I am on this planet and sharing it with others, yet I don't want to "buy" into the negativity either. Would like to give this focus on peace a try though. Count me in the World Peace Experiment! I know there are others for peace out there, we just feel alone sometimes!

From Santa Fe, New Mexico: Thank you for this movement and including me in the mailer. This is the best attempt I have read at changing what is happening to us. I say it every day to everyone I know that it is is each person, individual's greatest responsibility to extend love and think positive thoughts at this time or else we will go down. Rest assured that I will be sending this piece to friends all over the US and Canada. Thank you Thank you Thank you.

From Redding, California: I support peace and will be honored to participate in this experiment. There is only One and the power of collective consciousness is invaluable. Thank you for your efforts.

From Australia: Just a quick email to let you know that we received the "Only Love Prevails" bumper stickers today.  Thank you soooooooo much - they are just great (purple/violet is my favourite colour), and it was such a nice suprise after all this time - we had forgotton all about them. Keep up the good work; Our beautiful "Garden of Freedom", planet Earth, is so blessed by your presence, and we are proud to know you and to be associated with "Only Love Prevails" and the "World Peace Experiment".

From India: Thanks for the message. Indeed we are all one mind. Due to ignorance, we are trying to hurt our own selves. Love prevails over hate. The negative thought is inherant in all of us. Media is exploiting it. My first reaction was why only 10,000 since 1997 to joi this organization. Soon I realized it is a negative thought. Like the farmer removes the weeds, we have to do it contantly as negative thoughts grow again feeding from our vasanas and the seeds can come from the surroundings. Hence we have to very careful about our surroundings and the company.

From Veracruz, Mexico: I wish to join the open heart experiment. Actually my work deals with this. I am an emotional harmonizing therapist, we channeled some techniques to harmonize peoples emotions, and starting from there, health comes, and many of our cases, people heal from sicknesses which standard medicine couldnt treat. Most important for this therapy is to be aware of my constant creations, so I have to be in harmony most of the time.

From Lee, New Hampshire: I am interested in joining this movement, even though I am participating in some others for peace, which might be offshoots of this. In any event, there are many streams that can use the "PEACE PREVAILS" MOTTO. I am thankful for the prayer that is being distributed and will hold it in my morning meditation.

From Snowflake, Arizona: So this seems to be only the best of the major religious and philosophical systems in the world. I belong to the Unity of the White Mountains, Show Low, AZ, USA, and this is the sort of stuff we talk about all the time. I'm so happy to be Doing Something About It. As a songwriter and performer, this is right up my alley.

From Austin, Texas: Great idea! I totally support it and will follow through commencing immediately. I'll also pass this along to all my friends who are "on the same page" and just need a little direction to "do" something that makes so much sense.

From the Czech Republic: A friend of mine who lives in the U.S.A. has e-mailed me your appeal to all the people who want to participate in your work of transforming the negative energies in the world into the positive ones. To me it makes a great sense. I myself am a meditation and reiki teacher and I'm therefore well aware of the positive influence such work has on our environment. So, I'm going to participate in your programme which I've been doing anyway in my own way for a long time.

From Simi Valley, California: I am not sure that peace is possible. There has been war since the beginning of Biblical times. I would love it if peace could prevail. I have been an advocate for peace (which, to the contrary of some opinions, is not the absence of war) for many years. I pledge to promote the phrase "Love Prevails." I have forwarded this message to about 45 people on my address list whom I think would be receptive. Thank you for the opportunity to help promote peace...not only in my own heart, but in my family, in the community, in the state, in my country, and in the world. I will continue to pray for peace, and to pray for the efforts you are promoting. God bless you.

From Sydney, Australia: I totally support your experiment. There is so much judgement, criticism and negativity surrounding us in this world and it is absolutely true that ONLY LOVE PREVAILS. Let us hope that we can make a difference with this world bringing peace and harmony.

From Phoenix, Arizona: I would love to and am participating in sending positive energies to our planet. Only Love Prevails!!!!!My name is Gerri Krisa living in Phoenix Az. USA. My goal is to send as much love and light to our world to live in peace balance and harmony. Also as a Reiki Master have been sending energies to all our leaders for peace for all. Blessings for all that you do.

From Warsaaw, Poland: I will participate in this marvelous idea with love! In fact I am trying doing that two things everyday. I don`t read any news and don`t watch tv. I am trying to think just positively and fill myself with pure light. I am absolutly a pro!!

From Portland, Oregon: I will repeat as often as is necessary that ONLY LOVE PREVAILS. Sign me up. I am very excited about this and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for doing this and for including me. Ya double hoo!!!!

From Foster, Victoria, Australia: Hello Open Heart Folk, I have just received a wonderful email from friends in Tennessee letting me know about your terrific Peace initiative. How wonderful to have some positivity at last! I have sent it on to everyone in my address book and I hope that we can soon reach the 80,000 - great number. The 8 is very important now.

From The Netherlands: I really believe with heart and soul in the message "Only love will survive", so from deep inside I will join this group.

From Istanbul, Turkey: Thank you for this opportunity.May peace prevail over the whole world.

From Indianapolis, Indiana: I will continue to sign on more people. I am all about Love and love, and then some more love, and then after that, a bunch more love, and when it is all said and done, love is everything and the only thing.

From United Arab Emirates: The world peace movement is necessary to save the Humanity at this troubled time

From Curacao, Netherlands Antilles: I love the simple basics of what you would like to achieve. It is easily duplicable and respects everyones spiritual or religious beliefs.I will surely watch how the number of participants will increase.

From Carol Stream, Illinois: Thanks for the opportunity...I've been on a media fast for a few years now for the reasons that you mention, although I couldn't articulate them for myself at the time - when I went back to have a look during the events that took place last September I was blown away by the obvious intentions and not so subtle manipulations. Anyhow...thanks for your efforts to pull together like minded people in such a worth undertaking.

From Portland, Oregon: Yes, only Love does prevail. I have been practicing this for years using different words. Thank you for your efforts to maximize our recognition that in reality, only Love exists. As written in A Course In Miracles, "Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God." In other words, only Love exists therefore, only Love prevails.

From Salem, Oregon: People around the world are doing a daily(noonish, if possible) Prayer/Meditation to send the Whales and Dolphins Human Love and to ask for their protection. Please join us, and please spread the word.

From Waterige Weg, Netherlands: I read about the World Peace Experiment in a Newsletter of the Shield of the Command here in The Netherlands, and I want to join in. In fact, the second step of the two I already try to practice as much as possible, especially after 11 September last year.

From United Arab Emirates: Our world is becoming choked with: Greed, Fear, Anger, Hatred, Wars, Drugs (Licensed & unlicensed), Pollution, ...........the lsit can go on & on.... We the followers of Light, Love, Peace, Joy can change the above with: 'ONLY LOVE PREVAILS'.... I too believe in it fully

From London, England: This is a beautiful and divinely inspired project, and I feel truly blessed to be able to participate in it.

From Seattle, Washington: Love is the only answer. It always has been. If it noes not fit your question, ask a different question. Love is the only answer. Love in action is Peace- and Only Love Prevails. Amen and So Be It.

From Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada: I just learned of your project. I was pleased to read your "steps" as they fit very well with what I have been planning to send out to some people. Instead, I will notify them of your "experiment" and contribute my energy to it.

From Otalla, Washington: This is such a great experiement! I know you and we will reach critical mass quickly. Thank you for your work.

From Buckley, Washington: I have been doing this for the past ten years but was unaware of this site where I could join with others of like mind. Whenever I am somewhere and the media news is being listened to or watched, I wrap the whole senario in love. I can usually feel the energy shift and the waves become lighter. Truely, love can prevail.

From Pymble, Australia: To become free within is to set the world's people free.

From Sao Paulo, Brazil: I think this is the best thing I heard today...

From Kewaskum, Wisconsin: I try to use peaceful thoughts and words in my everyday life. I do not listen to the news or read any newspapers if I do not have to. I am a massage therapist and stress the importance of positive thinking and problem solving in my practice and the goodness of everyone I meet.

From Yelm, Washington: Bless you for this!! From this moment on, I will type "ONLY PEACE PREVAILS" on all my e-mail messages and tell all my friends. I will be forwarding this on to at least 50 people. SO BE IT!!

From Penn Valley, California: I will forward this to as many like-minded individuals as possible, and am grateful for the opportunity to take part in this all-important group work. Let Light, Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth.

From Tilton, New Hampsire: Peace-the ever longing and always sought------finding within ones self----leads to true outer peace. Look within and send out from there-all will feel it and really live, some for the first time.

From Rowayton, Connecticut: I have waited for something as formidable as this to come along. How wonderful it feels that the message of PEACE and LOVE has not been lost afterall. Blessings and light to all.

From Kwa-Zulu Natal, South Africa: I would like to participate in your experiment in shifting the consciousness of our planet. For a few years now, I have not bought the newspaper, for the simple reason that it is just too distressing and filled with negativity. I have always believed that only love will prevail. It is something I have known from my soul. To see the same sentiment written down, coming from somebody else, is thrilling! Knowing there are others around the world who strive for the same global peace makes life wonderful. I believe that some day soon, Only Love will Prevail. Thank you for speaking out, for putting into words our deepest desires. May you soon reach your goal of 80000 participants.

From Adelaide, SA, Australia: I love your idea about changing the world's perception of "good and evil" to a perception of love. There is certainly far too much negativity in the media presently so I would love to participate in changing this, as we know..."Only Love Prevails".

From Johannesburg, South Africa: I would very much like to be part of your experiment in World Peace. It is a wonderful idea and ultimately the only solution that will save this planet. Good luck!

From Labrador, QLD, Australia: sold the TV set last October after that ridiculous 9-11 farse.... We read a lot more and enjoy the un-conditional teachings of our 13 month old daughter! We think that the decisive "shift " is quite near.........around the corner so to speak in hu-man terms.

From The Netherlands: Vrede zoek je allereerst op in je eigen hart, dan is het pas mogelijk de energie verder te versprijden. Geloof in een innerlijke vrede, dan zaai je het de wereld in. Peace for the world is peace in yourself. Believe that you can make it a better world, by believing in yourself.

From Waco, Texas: A wonderful way to expand the conciousness of all beings! I'm proud to be part of your numbers. With Love Light and Blessings

From Eugene, Oregon: Just as negative thinking has distorted the view of the world, so too can our positive thinking reshape the world view.

From Tordher, Pakistan: we want peace. in the world. we want to finish terrism in the world.thanks

From Leeds, UK: How wonderful! I am honoured to be part of your beautiful plan for world peace. I know, collectively we can and will make a huge difference. I shall be telling my friends and family about this and hopefully they will be joining too. Love, light, blessings and peace to all.

From West Hollywood, California: All is consciousness manifesting on different levels in different ways/frequencies/densities etc... Certainly we can help speed up the shift of thought forms from the old consciousness based on fear (power and control and greed are fed by fear and can successfully manipulate people as they stay in a fear-based consciousness) to a new consciousness based on a more refined awareness that all is one and love. Love as a fuel/life force for consciousness to manifest. We are in that stage of evolution which shows the beginning of the shift. Some great human beings opened the portal for this new consciousness to enter more into matter on our third dimensional world. If you read the works of Sri Aurobindo you will find how he planted the seeds for a Life Divine, to help man realize that he can transmute his body and emotions and mind by surrendering-actively to an awareness that we are all Divine, we are all made of Consciousness...

From Stockton, California: We need more sites like this. We can change our reality. We are changing our reality. It is done.

From Charlotte, North Carolina: I am all for Opening the Heart (mine) and bring about World Peace. I believe we have a tremendous opportunity right now to bring about World Peace. I believe movements such as this one will have lasting effect on the World. Lets do it. World Peace here we come.

From Queensland, Australia: Thank you for this opportunity to join this peace network. I hope you reach your 80,000 or more of course. I have sent same to all my friends. Thank you.

From Johannesburg, South Africa: Last week I've got your mail from a friend, and since then I'm always saying ONLY LOVE PREVAILS. It is amazing, how often I say it. I was working in the corporate world for 15 years, was involved in the usual Rat-Race and the fear of survival, and along the way I felt that I lost all me spirituality. I am a Usui Reiki Master, got in contact with the Ascended Master's, Buddhic Boost, finishing now with the 6 stages of the Lightarian Reiki. At the moment I'm taking my Sabbatical Leave, trying to find myself again. I will pass on your letter to friend's, and hope that we will reach the stage of even more then 80.000 people, who will integrate the message into their lives, of: ONLY LOVE PREVAILS. With the kindest regards, in Love and Light and Peace

From Cornwall, England: I stopped watching the news and reading newspapers years ago and didn't even know for ages that Princess Diana had died which people thought was bad of me! I whole heartedly support this idea and believe that if everyone did the same the world would be an entirely different place. Hope you get your 80,000.

From Bryanston, South Africa: I already choose not to expose myself to the junk out there in our popular media that permeates everything. I choose not have a TV and zone out in front of one form of negativity or another. And I will work the mantra "only love prevails."

From Subiaco in the centre of Perth in Western Australia: I connected to this world day and I had my group meet in a very lovely park near bye ,it has lovely trees and I use it often to run special meditations . it has lovely ducks and it is on three levels and with big rocks and gardens, it is a SPECIAL place.> we lit our candles and passed it around and sent it to all the world and I said prayers and and then connected to the world as it felt great. a lovely day here. cool but sunshine. we had 5 of us....thinking and sending you Love and LIGHT

From Ottawa, ON, Canada: Please add me to your list of participants. For the last two months I have stopped watching televison altogether, have stopped going to conspiracy theories sites a whole lot less (like Rense.com, etc.) and have gone outside for strolls in the park to talk with the trees. And you know, they're starting to talk back. They are alive, have personalities, and they love this planet. To anyone who is willing to acknowledge their existence, they are ready to pledge their love onto to you.

From South Africa: Yes, Please add us into your experiment. We are doing daily work very similar to what you suggest already ... I run a Healing help line here in South Africa and all 50 people are participating in our daily work to refuse negativity. Blessings .. every good/loving thought DOES make a difference, it can encircle the Earth in seconds even as a smile to a passer-by can do. Thank You

From Ojai, California: Thanks for your lovely and powerful idea of engulfing the planet in love. I am gladly, as of this moment "officially" one of the 80,000. In some way I have so been for a long time. We (my beloved husband and I) do not have a connected TV, nor do we get newspapers, except for the small town paper with local good news. This is a gentle town. The reason we unhooked from the TV and reading national "news"papers was exactly what you are putting forth: Our belief that it does NOT reflect the majority of news, happening daily everywhere, of wonderful conscious acts of kindness, and in fact energizes the harsh "news" by broadcasting and highlighting it. It was while watching the news a couple of years ago that we realized we were watching manipulative horrible trash and turned it off and unhooked the cable on the spot. We have been more peaceful, happier, more productive in beautiful ways, and enjoying more walks, reading and silences. So, count us amongst your tribe of visionaries of love. We'll add envisioning to our own walking as lightly and as peaceably on the planet as our awareness allows.

From New Zealand: I live in the very centre of the South Island of New Zealand. You will not find it on your map as there are only 11 residents in the village. It is in the middle of the Southern Alps of New Zealand mid way between Christchurch and Greymouth, between Porters Pass and Arthurs Pass. I have built a labyrinth for Peace in my backyard and set up a clootie tree to tie clooties (peace flags) on. Thank you for your reminder about living peace.

From New Zealand: I have just received your e-mail from a friend in Austria. I am happy to participate it is something that I do every day now. For many years I have foregone the newspapers and the trash that is delivered to us by the media and sifted through to only have on my consciousness the good. All the best.

From Johannesburg, South Africa: I would be happy to participate. Coming from a particualarly violent country (South Africa) I have recently found myself limiting my exposure to the media which is designed as the opposite of 'feel good'. I live in Johannesburg, capital of the world in terms of crime, child and woman abuse etc., etc. Wildly in need of positive energy.

From Great Britain: Dear Openheart, I believe that love is all you need and that love conquers all and that love is its own reward. i wait for the day when we have peace on this earth and I am working daily to experience peace in my heart - some progress is beign made!!

From Pezance, Cornwall, England: I think this is great! A shift in consciousness is what we are doing, and this is a wonderful part of creating it. I also feel it's important when we do see "negative" stuff on TV or wherever to not feel pity (as opposed to compassion) for the "victims" but rather to not only affirm that love prevails, but also affirm their truth, who they really are in essence; powerful, creative beings, part of the oneness - as, never mind distance/time, it elicits a response in them somewhere that goes "oh, yes, I remember, that is what I am", and strengthens them. It's such an important part of the equation to also affirm people's essential truth along with the love - which of course is their truth too!

From Macomb, Illinois: Whenever I tell people about the New World Order and people get scared I say "Remember, Love is the answer!" TV is CIA-opted (Operation Mockingbird). I haven't had cable since the day democracy died Dec. 2000. Kill your TV. Better yet.. Imagine No TV. There is no way we could be controlled without that particular medium of brainwashing and behavior modification. Really. 70% of resources devoted to geo-strategic objective is spent on Psychological Operations, 30% on ammo & weapons. We, in the US have been duped - and everyone else in the world knows it and makes fun of us. Stupid brainwashed Americans living in a cult opted by the CIA, quite literally. Check out www.voxnyc.com Read, it's important

From Marazion, Cornwall, England: I totally resonate with what you are doing and indeed, have been achieving a large part of it in my life already. (Thank you for the opportunity to measure!) Would be happy to "join forces" with you all. Marazion overlooks St Michaels Mount and is where the Archangel Michael/Mary Ley Line connects with Skellig Michael in Ireland and travels right through to Israel. A powerful place and more and more spiritually minded people are locating here, especially for the invaluable work of balancing the Divine Masculine and Feminine.

From Gympie, Australia: May piece radiate through all our nations and bring love to all. May every one be blessed with kindness and wake up to each day with a smile for every one. May you all just take the time to help one another and be happy with what we have. Love is in you Spread it wide and may it return ten fold.

From Newcasle Upon Tyne, England: What a lovely positive site to discover through Arielle Ford's book, Hot Chocolate for Mystical Lovers. Thank you for putting it together. I will tell my friends to read about your peace experiment.

From Laramie, Wyoming: I think what you people are doing is GREAT. There are far too many negative things happening in the world right now, it would make a tremendious difference if more people were open to living their lives with peace and love instead of all the negative influences around them.

From Brecht-St. Lenaarts, Belgium: Greatest experiment ever in my point of vieuw!! Good luck ! and...untill we meet in Peace !

From Indianapolis, Indiana: I sent the information regarding your program to the View this morning. Their program was so negative and demeaning to women it was pathetic. I usually don't watch it, but maybe there was a reason today. You may be contacted. God bless

From Hoogeveen, Holland: Thanks for taken care of being united and given so many souls the opportunity to do something for well-fare and well-care of our beautifull planet and whole universe.

From Cameron Park, California: Thank you for this experiment. I have often thought of doing something like this, and you have articulated it well. Perhaps in the future, I will share with you some of what I have come up with along the lines of your experiment. Again, Thank you!

From Ravenna, Ohio: At these troubled times, when we all feel so hopeless watching our leaders draw our world deeper and deeper into a labyrinth of violence and hate, what you are providing here is like a breath of fresh air! Thank you for being here and good luck to us all.

From Lander, Wyoming: I want to be part of this - I gave up reading the newspaper over a year a go and moved to the west in June, leaving my television set behind in Cleveland. How beautiful the world is without this constant negative influence. Occasionally, because of my job, I'm exposed to television and CNN for hours at a time. I'm happy I received this message at this time - it will help me get back into balance.

From Somerville, Massachusetts: I would like to be a part of this experiment. I intentionally avoid the news already, so I will add the "Only Love Prevails" thought to my daily life.

From Palm Harbor, Florida: I would be happy to add my positive energy to World Peace. it is the only way.:)

From Miami, Florida: I am also deeply committed to love and peace on this earth. I am honored to align myself with your vision and experiment.

From Springfield, Ohio: I think this is a really well-thought-out and worthwhile experiment...I hope it works!

From Anderson, Indiana: I find this very inspiring--to know peace is possibe to believe and live like it is, and to be a part of bringing it about.

From Salt Lake City, Utah: Your web site is wonderful. Your goal and those similar to it are powerful and will set into motion the desired changes. I know this is true

From Yellow Springs, Ohio: I will pass this on to my friends and feel sure they will sign up. Thank you for this spiritual, positive approach to world peace.

From Winston/Salem, North Carolina: peace is possible if the heart is ready.The more hearts that are ready will make other hearts ready.Each soul means so much to the total.And the total can't be without YOU!

From Commerce City, Colorado: I have already taken some of these steps, because I am very aware of media manipulation to create chaos and dissention. I agree that we have become addicted to the horrible, and I personally can't take it anymore. I have chosen to take personal responsibility for my thoughts and actions, and refuse to take personally all of the random occurances that surround me in this world. Thank you for the opportunity to voice my opinion, and good luck with this project.

From Contennial, Colorado: I am excited that you are getting members from all over the world. Thank you for your efforts. This is a terrific idea that can change the paradigm of the world.

From Lerona, Wyoming: Love & Peace will certainly prevail! That is the foundation of "ALL THAT IS"! My Love energy is being sent out constantly! We Lightworkers are making a wonderful difference in this beautiful world. Mother Earth is such an amazing HOME away from HOME! Namasté... my dear friends

From London, Canada: Great idea--- I've known or remembered for a few years that we only need the square root of the earth's population to achieve this effect. Thank you for the work you do.. We are learning to live this-- many of us that I know. As the Children of Oz say--- "Pre-tend" and So it IS! We are already enlightened--

From Courtenay, BC, Canada: I just happened to say a little prayer asking for direction because of feeling frustrated about our world and the random thought came to me to try "openheart.com" and voila there you were. I love your site, thank you.

From Baton Rouge, Louisiana: Let us make the shift together! Be conscious, and present, and let your love flow at all times!

From Venice, Florida: Even before Open Heart, I thought this kind of thought is where we should be coming. Great idea.

From Costa Rico: This is a good initiative. All we can do to advance peace does have some impact. The larger the group, the larger the possible critical mass. Everything is conscious. If we can concentrate and coincide, we can make the difference. Or we can start to make relevant differences grow meaningfully and effectively. Why should we not have and have positive impact in this macro world or so called material realm of the 1% of reality, if we all know that science shows us that at the quantic and or subatomic world, what is just the 99% component of reality, the focalization of the energizing attentions of our concentrations does effectively and meaningfully chose the orientations of events and overall reality? Is this not evidence that prayer does have to have the same effect on our world? Through prayer we can have discernable or not so discernable impacts on bringing about our intentions. And if our coincident intentions all converge synchronistically we can bring about world peace. Love, much love to all.

From Mumbai, India: A very good initiative indeed! I look forward to hearing more from you. Thanks.

From Tilton, New Hamshire: As a teacher of a course called "Healing From The Heart" this concept has very special significance and appeal to me. We share the belief that we are all connected, and that what one of us 'feels', we all do. We are all psychic in the sense that we do truly perceive what those around us feel, but most often choose not to acknowledge those perceptions for fear we might have to respond to them or, to state it more clearly, 'Act Responsibly'. Many of us still believe 'Approval' is the same thing as 'Love', and as a result fill our lives with rules that might produce approval, instead of allowing our hearts to open to the unconditionality of acceptance and love. This is a truly inspired and inspiring project, and I am honored to marry my own intentions to those already committed here. Our love will lift us to places and experiences that will prove that we need go no farther than where we are right now to reach that place we've been taught might be our reward for good deeds...heaven. It takes a shift in attitude, not a shift in location.

From Sharon, Massechusetts: As a clinical scientist, I am impressed how you have brought grounding to your highest truths. Thank you for making available to me a way to express and generate my own highest truth that love is the most powerful force. It is the source of being, and I now have a way of turning my frustration into love.

From Woodland, Washington: I am pleased to participate and will sign up the friends who live with me. If for some reason they don't agree, I will find another two but they will. We already look at the >world this way and will be happy to be part of an organized effort.

Columbia, Missouri: I lead community chanting for world peace in my community. Many participants find that chanting helps bring personal peace to their lives, which leads to peace in our community, which leads to peace outside of our community...and on to world peace.

From Lander, Wyoming: Hello! I am so happy to find a caring site that is willing to try and change what is happening in the world and i would like to be part of this program. I all people would wake up to what is happening to the world environment we might turn it around. I hope we are not too late as it is.

From Los Angeles, California: Thank you for sponsoring such a wonderful project. May every participant's portion of light add to the world's, that a network of healing envelop humanity ... the need was never so great. It is a privilege and blessing to join you in this endeavor.

From Surrey, Canada: I do believe this concept can work. I first came across this concept after having read "The Hundredth Monkey". It's good to see someone actually applying this principle.

From Des Plaines, Illinois: The greatest power we have is the power of thought. Through the vibrating energy of thought we are lifted to new heights. Nobody can stop us from using our minds. And when we recognize this and use it collectively to affect positive change, nothing is impossible for us.

From San Diego, California: I think this is a great idea and I pray that your experiment is a great success. It will help me to realize that I can really do something constructive for world peace.

From Madrid, Spain: What a lovely idea this is. It is so good, I know it's going to feel great to participate in this, and I'm sure it's going to make a difference. Thank you very much for this project. I've got to know it through a member of the discussion boards in chopra.com

From Rome, Italy: I appreciate your initiative very much. May World Peace be created out of all the loving, knowing hearts.

From Ridgecrest, California: What a wonderfully simple way to evoke powerful change. I feel like I now have the true "bottom line." I will pass along your web sight to all my friends. Thank you for your work of love. Namaste

From Cairo, Egypt: only LOVE and open heart can realize PEACE in this world.

From Napal: Namaste. Thank you very much for keeping me in your email list. Yes , only love prevails if we are true with our heart. True love is like a tree from where the flowers pf peace, non violence, harmony.. blossom beautifully. Therefore, the entire world needs love, only love. Thanks. love & peace

From The Gambia: Our organisation is a charitable one with sole vision of attaining global peace, Edenic Peace International.

From Louisville, Kentucky: I have been affirming that Love is all there is for many years... So wonderful to be apart of an official PEACE experiment. Thank you all who put this together...World Peace begins at home...Love & Light, Namaste!

From San Diego, California: I love the fact that this website is available and believe peace & tolerance needs to spread. I would like to have a link from my website to this one. Is there a code or something I need to accomplish this. It might help get more subscribers.

From Oakland, California: This is wonderful. Thanks for the opportunity. ONLY LOVE PREVAILS. You are angels. Much love and continued success to you all. I will be sharing this with people, surely signing up a bunch.

From San Francisco: I appreciate this effort of trying to get peace into ourselves by changing ourselves. I myself do not read newspapers and only selectively watch TV. Keep up the good work. Peace, Love, & Light.

From Manhattan, Kansas: I am a firm believer in the power of positive thinking, if this is a step in the right direction then I am all for it. We really need something big to happen to turn this world around and become a more positive, peaceful, and compassionate place.

From Ontario, Canada: I pledge myself to strive to hold peace in everything I see, hear and say..I promise to instill peace, where there may be sorrow, hope where there may be despairity..I offer love, where there is hatred, prejudicm or injustice..of this I pledge to this cause for world peace among us!

From San Francisco, California: Namasthe, On Our Way to Critical Mass!! Embrace All, Resist Nothing, Jugde Not. Thank you for Being. :-)

From Cairo, Egypt: Nationalities, Religions, Languages, Colors and Locations should not be a reason for wars and unfair poverty and miserable life. Peace means peace and peace is equal for any creature all over the world.

From Vienna, Austria: WE ARE ON THE LIGHT PATH... LET'S SPREAD PEACE ALL OVER!!!!!

From Gotse Delchev, Bulgaria: Hi. I want love. I need to love. I know only love prevails. I know we are creatures of love-- our mission is love. Please contact me! Right now I need to learn how to love again after the pain and lost illusions!

From Seaside, California: I believe that love IS the most powerful force in this particular universe and that our job on earth is to prevail in this belief system...and that when we have ALL acknowledged and accepted and DONE our job, we will ALL be in the light together -- ALL Love, ALL Light...what an exciting challenge -- to be a footstep on that path!

From Candler, North Carolina: We are focused on creating peace in our own lives. If everyone did just that, not too long afterward, there would be peace in the whole world.

From Lewiston, Maine: I am honored and grateful to participate in the peace experiment. What better place to put my attention and intention but to join energetically with others to fill the critical mass with peace and light.

From Rico, Colorado: Gratefully I join with the Power of Love, to manifest the Truth that Love is all there is. Since Love is all there is, there is no way we shall not get there. For we never left. There is only the illusion that there could be anything else to be. For the purpose of knowing experientially, that, that is what we are not. Having no further need for the illusion, we shall proceed unswervingly N2 the truth of our being.......Love. Thank you and God Bless You for the place and the momentum to accomplish this knowing! Only Love Prevails and SO IT IS. I shall pass this Love Truth -in-Action on to many more!

From Santa Rosa, California: Thank you for creation of this site. I've just awakened recently to this more continueous God-consciousness, discovering'IAM' walking. Whose personality? Goddess and I are not separate. I'm getting to know me; diggin her shine :-) This is how we will have world peace/love

From Irvine, California: Add my energy to the wave!! Thanks for providing this focus for all our myriad, harmonious energies!

From Lodi, California: I Love this, and hope you get all you need really soon....

From Bayville, New York: "Individually we make a difference.....together we can change the world"

From St. Augustine, Florida: Great site with an exceptional purpose and goal.Peace to and for all

From New York City, NY: I FEEL SO FRUSTRATED...THIS MAKES ME FEEL I CAN DO SOMETHING..THANKS!

From Quartzsite, Arizona: Excellent idea ; It is impossable to bring another mind into comradery by putting a bullet in their brain! A $1,000,000 dollar smart bomb-- now there's an oxymoron.

From North Bend, Washington: I love this ....I have been running around for a year telling everyone that only love prevails....Thank you very much for all of your efforts.... I will do all in my power to make this happen!!!

From Seattle, Washington: Love you and your idea. Thank you for having the courage to change the world.

From Big Sur, California: Thank you for all your conscious efforts in building a divine world. We love what you are doing, and White Light is white light. We are united in the effort of peace. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind, and we believe it. Peace, is the answer. We, as a human species, with awareness at our fingertips ... must agree to disagree, and find common ground.

From Winston-Salem, North Carolina: We must all come together. Love is my religion. The world is my family. God bless you and thanks for being there.

From Grand Junction, Colorado: I really Love that so many people are taking a stand so far, and I'm proud to be part of this idea. I totally agree with becoming peaceful within ourselves before the whole world does, even though it is going to be a hard task but if we all just share a little love it will rub of on other people.

From Irvine, California: Bravo for initiating such a priceless, timeless and core endeavor- best of luck. To a better, more peaceful and loving globe...

From Little Rock, Arkansas: I have been doing (a form of) the two steps for some time now (not necessarily saying "Only Love Prevails" but thinking similar positive thoughts). I totally agree that the media does more than its share of spreading negative and despairing news. Unfortunately, I can't remember where I received the inspiration to filter what I hear and read in the news and to offer love when faced with negative energy. I would like to join your experiment - too many people are giving up (or have already given up) on world peace. We need to tip the tables back the other way if this planet is to survive. Thank you.

From Escondido, California: World Peace is possible here and now and I know it must begin with me, and now we who are willing to BE PEACE.

From Fort Rucker, Alabama: Thank you for reminding me about the negativity on TV. Even though something may seem benign, such as some of the cartoons my four-year-old watches, those things still get embedded into his brain. I will teach him to be more discriminating when choosing his TV programs.

From Orlando, Florida: I know you probably get swamped with mail, but I'll be short... I recently have been bombarded with a lot of negativity and a loss of a 10 year friendship. By repeating 'Only Love prevails,' I have been able to change my impulse to react with anger and negativity to that of peacefulness.

From Fairfax, Virginia: We can only have faith that this collective will gather momentum and the pendulum will begin to swing the other way.....

From Maitland, Florida: Treasure Life...Love is the only answer to Fear, Hate, War, Conflict, etc. Listen to what is beneath the "argument".

From Orlanda, Florida: Every Day allow your light to shine - for you are experiencing life and emotion for God. You honor God by LIVING and Loving. Only Love Prevails is something everyone can do. Light and Love Blessed Be

From Valencia, Venezuela: The difficult part is stop to read bad news. Because my work depend on what is saying the news. But I will do it just for work and the rest I will comply with the principle of only love prevails. And any time I will see the negativity I will say only love prevails.

From New Paltz, New York: How wonderful to see people from all over the world signing up for your peace experiment! This is the best use of this new technology! Blessings to you and for what you do!

From Altoona, Pennsylvania: I love this site and will be telling everyone I know about it. Thanks so much for spreading goodness and love throughout the world. Life is good and the world is a wonderful place to be!!

From Victoria, BC, Canada: The first peace, which is most important, is that which comes from within the souls of men when they realize their relationship, their oneness, with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells Wankan-Tanka, and that this center is really everywhere, it is within each one of us. This is the real peace, and the others are but a reflection of this. The second peace is that wich is made between 2 nations. But above all you should understand that there can never be peace between nations until there is first known that true peace wich is within the souls of men. -Black Elk.

From Louisville, Kentucky: Blessings of Love, Peace, Joy and Compassion for the work you do and bring to us all!

From Miami, Florida: The miracle will come true. What a great idea to set the peace energy in motion. And we should remember also: In the beginning was the word and the word was GOD.

From Sparta, Missouri: thank you for this ~ the moment I say this I feel all the energy that is being generated by many.

Cliffside Park, New Jersey: Dear Carol, I became acquainted with your "Lighten up" tape, through my therapist, just this morning. Being a "geek", I went searching. I like your "Only love prevails" concept, also at a time like this, what can be more important, than world peace. I am emailing info to all my friends.

From San Francisco, California: Congratulations on your fabulous project "Only love prevails!" It gives the opportunity to change personal and mass consciousness. And what a simple but powerful gift to the universe. Please add my energy. May this find you in the midst of life's passions today,

From Phoenix, Arizona: This is a very heartening effort. I whole heartedly support it. The web page and all else appear very well designed. Let me know how else I may help.

From Maryland: I think what your trying to do is absolutely wonderful. We must never give up our struggle for world peace. I can promise you I will do everything in my power to help you achieve this. Thank you and god bless.

From Branson, Missouri: This is my passion. Thank you for bringing together another forum in which people are consciously declaring their commitment to peace. I believe the more frequently each of us declares our conviction the stronger it grows.

From Tavares, Florida: The "hundredth monkey" concept is the most encouraging path to achieving world peace, I believe.

From Denver, Colorado: Thank you for putting this together. It is a much easier way than getting up at 4 AM to pray for peace once a year.

From Pacific Grove, California: This is a postive, wonderful site!! Thanks for creating it!!!! Interesting that so many voices wanting peace, yet in 4 years you have reached only 9,415 people........about 2,7007 a year. Ahhhhhh, room for change!!! Let's go for it.......!!

From Yokohama-shi, Japan: May Peace Prevail on Earth! Infinite LOVE to all! May Infinite LOVE prevail on Earth.

From Ngatea, New Zealand: This is a really interesting concept and one that I would like to be part of. I really do agree with the comments about the media and its negative affects on the population, how a good news sheet production. My mother is always saying she is a positive person, she reads the New Zealand Herald everyday and comes and tells me all about the negative things that are happening in the world and our own country. I find this annoying and actually kind of threatening to my inner peace. I also think it has a bad affect on her well being. Anyway, I am prepared to give the World Peace Experience a shot and am surprised that are not more people involved especially in New Zealand. Could there be some way of publicising this more effectively.

From Nevada City, California: Thanks, I know for myself that "Only Love Prevails" and I'm happy to be part of this experiement.

From Tucson, Arizona: It is time to remind people again that even if we are really angry, peace solves things and war never does. We learned this lesson once, this is just a time for a wake-up. Watch this one grow!

From Wallingford, Vermont: I started to say this is a wonderful experiment, but I caught myself. That would be a negative statement, this isn't an experiment. It's a manifestation of the efforts of many people to save our planet and make our journey more pleasant. Thanks for spreading the light and love to so many.

From Cape Town, South Africa: LET THERE BE PEACE

From Bridgeport, Connecticut: It is of utmost importance that the essence of "divine love" be taught, preached, lectured and broadcasted over and over again, until the soul of humanity yeilds her powerful fruit in the heart of mankind. Thank you for all that you are doing.

From Bridgepart, Connecticut: WHILE COUNTING MY BLESSINGS, I THOUGHT ABOUT YOU. After waking to a rainy day It dawned on my soul I should really count my blessings. For in doing it, I would be made whole. Well this I did for a second... Then a minute of time had passed... 30 minutes, then a hour. Boy, this was something that was going to last. So the process had begun I said, Father thank you for my job. I kept on counting my blessings. And afterward in mind, I saw a mob... A mob of family, friends and associates... Who by chance had crossed my mind... A mob of uniquely different individuals whom I had connected with from time to time. After this revelation had come to shine in me today. With love and appreciation You are a Blessing Through counting, this I can truly say. Only Love Prevails.

From Mt. Tamborine, Gold Coast, Australia: I agree totally and after reading could not wait to sign up - I am very pleased that so many people feel as I do - love does always prevail. I had become disheartened lately but you have struck a cord of hope in me - I am very grateful, thank you.

From Oakland, California: This is wonderful. Peace and love are the only solution. Amen. You all are wonderful. I'm starting a wellness site http://www.inersha.com/wellbein where art / words / sound will be combined, allowing people to create their own multimedia! Continued success to you all. Much love

From Halifax, Canada: I have been looking for you people for a long time. I used to sit in front of the computer and think to myself "if i could get everyone who is connected through the internet to become a one-conscious force...." how amazing would that be if everyone would spread the love and peace. ...and here you were doing it all along. i am just happy to have found you on my journey. please include my name in the world peace experiment. Always in love & peace.

Lincoln, United Kingdom: I found out about this site from a good friend, a healer, and a lovely person. I've been hoping to be involved in something like this for many years. I hope that angels of light will help us to change the world. Thank you.

From Grass Valley, California: I was tickled to read your website. I know that this can work and would love to participate.

From Johnnesburg, South Africa: This is exactely what our planet and everyone needs at this time.We all need peace in our lives.

From San Francisco, California: It would really be wonderful if this goal is met. We definately need to spread more peace and love throughout the world and universe.

From Norwich, England: Thanks for this very useful site and collective experiment for Peace in which we can all contribute and make a difference.

From Burbank, California: Carol, I am so excited about the Only Love Prevails experiment. After researching my book I am convinced that the only thing that will save us from extinction and save our planet from dying is to move out of hatred and hostility into Love: Love for ourselves, Love for each other, and Love for our beautiful planet. This is what Nature and the Universe intended for us from the beginning of our evolution and I see so many signs that we are beginning to awaken to our real potential. I have made it my job to tell everyone I know about the World Peace Experiment. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that Only Love will Prevail.

From Healdsburg, California: This is exactly how love prevails. My love to all who have created this experiment and to those who have partcipated.

From Comming, Georgia: Beautiful. May compassion become humanity's "automatic response" to pain, fear, violence, and change.

From Spokane, Washington: I often feel overwhelmed - sometimes, very "alone" - in the face of negative energy that often manifests in images of aggression. anger, violence, confusion, "the war stance". I just discovered you in Thom Hartman's: The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight. Recently I attended a meditation class at a Buddhist Temple. I asked Bodhipaksi about mantra. I thought I needed a master to select this vital focus for me. Bodhipaksi said I select my own. My view has been to discover my mantra -that it would be revealed to me - it has been. Yes, Only Love Prevails. I know this. Thank you. I feel a great lightness - a gift of family. God bless you ya'll.

From Victoria, BC, Canada: Choose Love! In this polarized world there is either Love or Fear, one or the other. You can't have both. What bliss would it be to live in a community of like-minded people who have chosen Love! Thank you for taking action on this website...May I join you?

From Udine, Italy: Thank you for this present; I'm sure it will work.

From Warszawa, Poland: I only believe in love and would like to have only people around me who are the same. I will transfer this information to other people so we can have more participants.

From San Rafael, California: What an inspired idea. I have been looking for a mantra to say to still my overactive, worrisome mind. Now I have one. Only love prevails. Only love prevails.

From Zionsville, Indiana: I work for a program called the Peace Learning Center. We teach kids in Indianapolis how to solve their conflicts peacefully. I will see what I can do about getting some kids to sign up too. You can check out our website if you wish at http://www.peacelearningcenter.org

From Courtenay, BC, Canada: What a brilliant idea. I will forward this website to all my friends and hope that they to will join. I believe in this. I believe one by one, we can make a difference. Thank you.

From Maynard, Massachustts: Thank you for creating and maintaing this site and thank you for helping to create and maintain peace!

From West Vancouver, BC, Canada: Wouldn't the world be a better place if we didn't dwell on the negative. I seems like it is so hard to find people who aren't caught up in negative thinking. I have been consciously clearing my life of this negative energy but would still like to meet others who think the same way. I am forwarding this address to my family, hopefully they will sign up too.

From San Francisco, California: I fully agree with this peace and realize there is only love. I do believe its a great idea to give up news media negativity.

From Newark, Delaware: Thank you for giving me one more support system that focuses on peace and the opportunity to change the world!

From Los Osos, California: Thank you all for sharing your desire for a peaceful world. I have clung desperately to my desire for peaceful resolutions to our conflicts, and sorrows. Reading your words has given me hope that we can all learn to live in love, and act in peace. I am glad I am not alone, and am so pleased to join you in the World Peace Experiment! Blessed Be

From Southington, Connecticut: I think this is a wonderful idea. I enjoyed looking up how many people from other countries joined in the peace experiment. I do believe that we can make a difference. It starts with our own indivual peace. What a wonderful thought to keep sending all that love and peace energy around instead of fear and evil. Thanks Peace to everyone. Marion

From Winchester, England: I feel it is a bit of a new-agey California sort of thing (n.b. significantly the largest number of signees are from that state) but on the other hand it can hardly do any harm to anyone, and might conceivably do some good, not least to me. I don't mean that in a selfish sort of way, but even if 'thought waves' do not transmit around the world in terms of energy, as envisaged, positive thoughts can help those thinking them, and thus indirectly, all others in contact with the thinker. I agree with you about the prevalence of bad news coverage. It is easy at times to feel despair about the state of the world!

From Sydney, Australia: This is wonderful, I am glad to have found this. AND Thank God for the internet (Technology enabling some good), as it makes events like this possible.

From Santa Barbara, California: Thank you for initiating this powerful and beautiful movement. I will tell others that I know and encourage them to sign up. Together we can do it!

From Charlotte, North Carolina: This is a lovely idea....and is certainly an answer to the question: "What would Love do?"

From Gainsville, Florida: A friend told me about your website in a passing comment. There is nothing more powerful in the Universe than LOVE. Thank you for bringing this wonderful idea forward in this particular form.

From Roseburg, Oregon: I was not really surprised to find this website. For some time now I have been watching the planet transform into the cycle of love fullfillment. There is evidence all around us. I was curious how we would all get under one "roof of unity" but knew the web would be involved (it's a wonderful tool) - if you sign up on this site I believe it is because you have been called to do so. Together and with unity of thought we can transform this planet and help bring about the universal plan of love throughout the universe. We can demonstrate the power that love has to create a harmonious existence.

From Gainesville, Florida: "THE GOOD NEWS WITH LOVE IS... THERE IS ONLY GOOD NEWS!

From Bolivar, Ohio: The real struggle is not on this physical plane, rather it is on a vast spiritual plane. For all, the duration of this struggle is the time, be it a life time or a soul time, it takes to make a choice: a choice between Love and nothing.

From Gainesville, Florida: I've been doing this for several years but didn't know the concept had been formalized. I'm thrilled!! OLP!

From Hawthorne, Florida: Thank you for giving me an opportunity to join in a group effort to uplift and change the negative energy that has ensued over recent events. I have been participating on a personal level in only sending to others that which is in alignment with our highest energies, the Divine energy which is all there really is, the rest is just smokescreen and manipulation through the use of fear. Thanks. I will be sending this site to all the people I know will participate and offer their energies to this endeavor. Thanks, and Bright Blessings to all.

From Rochester, New York: I see the energy and power of love everywhere, yet the media denies its pervasiveness. I sometimes feel the tug of fear myself, but my experience of the last few years shows me there is more to life than the mundane experience. The recent events have created a strong, united wave of fear. The anthrax information seems to be coming out in a manner to reinforce that fear, knowing that we might heal otherwise. I don't know who or what is creating this test, but I know we have the knowledge, the experience and the power to pass this test, because we know that ONLY LOVE PREVAILS

From Chicago, Illinois: Let the peace begin within ourselves. Let the little drops of water gather together to become a big ocean. Let us take the concept of worldpeace from dream to a reality. :) Be Blessed. Prayers for peace and Love for all.

From Chilmark, Massachusetts: Blessings to you and the uniting of peoples from around the world. As we unite and links our names we unite and link our hearts and Light. God be with each person everywhere. Love, Di

From Alameda, California: My contention has been that the internet will create world peace. Young people especially have friends all over the world and have a greater world knowledge than I had at their age. Many are multi-ethnic with environmental awareness and know about the heroism of the Greatest Generation. Thank you for helping to create this world peace vision.

From Lexington, Kentucky: What if everyone who signs up for this was to take out an ad in a Sunday paper all on the same day to let people know about this? I just happened to stumble across it. But I plan to share it with all my friends and family.

From Orange, Virginia: You have an amazing club going, I just hope your new visitors can handle the openness of the love energy of the site since it almost seemed to push me away through my viewing tastes. Your inspiration pages were truly a blessing for I love quotes toward peace and unity! Keep up the good work and you will know that those who sign up are not against the beautiful and loving heart which speaks the direct truth :) Oh yeah, thanks for keeping me up to par on realising that which looks "mushy"(what am I supposed to call it?) is actually very open and loving.

From Cincinnati, Ohio: I do hope that this movement swells to billions so that war will be removed from the human vocabulary. May I make a suggestion. I don't hear the mothers of the world. Here is their chance to stand up and say to all of us, "You can't take my son/daughter. You must find another solution to the act you are now contemplating." We must get the mothers, of ALL creeds to come together to save their/our children from the war and it's dehumaizing aspects.

From London, England: This sounds wonderful...I was only talking to someone about this sort of thing recently. Thanks for organising it. Here's to a better world!!

From Guadalajara, Mexico: You are doing a beautiful work. God bless you!! :-)

From Bucharest, Romania: All is love, and unless we see this we have a problem of perception.

From Chatham, Ontario, Canada: What a wonderful idea and one I fully endorse. I have been trying to do ththis on my own, and to know that there are many others also participating reassures me that we can and will make a difference. Let peace and love prevail

From Sonoma, California: So glad to discover you in the wake of this global tragedy! Very much aligned with the critical mass start with inner peace practice compassion & oneness daily approach. I'm a psychotherapist in Napa, CA specializing in womens issues--I'm fwd'ing your message to my womens groups & others. I tend to discourage media exposure also because of the pervasive negativity, but I find now since the tragedy the news & media has shifted also--much more coverage of positive heart connections & both local, natl & international linking. The world's heart chakra seems to have opened thru this shattering! Thanks for your site helping to further the linking.

From Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada: I use the TV news broadcast time as an opportunity to send a blessing into the world in a very specific way, sharing an attunement with the topics and people directly affected by the specific news event(s) and also because I know there is a large number of people viewing at such a time and I see this as an opportunity to send blessings their way as well.

From Milwaukee, Wisconsin: I have forwarded your email of 9-30-01 to my entire email directory and feel the lion's share will sign up. Thank you many times over for this weaving of the fabric we are all part of.

From St. Louis, Missouri: This is absolutely fabulous! I look forward to participating, I do this now, only not in quite the same way. It will be good to have this mantra to say. I haven't watched the news in years and quit watching after a day or two about the WTC. It really does make a difference. Thank you for creating this project.

From Gainesville, Florida: Thank you for creating a place so we may gather with others who seek to make the difference with a paradign shift. I hope more and more are attracted to this Work as a result of 9/11/01.

From Eastlake, Colorado: I agree with your project and you have my support. I have been using the affirmation: "Divine Love is adjusting and harmonizing all situations here and now". I am delighted to find resonance with your "Only Love Prevails" thoughtforms and will practice both.

From Edmonton, Alberta, Canada: exellent mission of guidance and progress tracking love it all may the peace reach around the globe and back 365 million times love in light

From West Valley City, Utah: I am sending a e-mail to all I know and letting them choose to sign up. I am very hopeful that all over the world we are creating peace and would be vhonored to be a part of a peaceful community.

From Nevada City, California: Thank you for putting this together. Now, more than ever in the history of the world, we can create the peaceful planet we want. Let us do it! Peace and blessings in the name of St. Francis Assisi.

From Raleigh, North Carolina: Thank you for providing such simple words for so important a feeling. May you find love prevailing in your heart and life in every moment.

From Portland, Oregon: Thanks for you work. I have already been on this path for some time now, but it is good to open up and join up:)

From Fairhope, Alabama: Unity Churches the world over are with you in the scientific application of spiritual strength! I am confident that the 'critical mass' for Peace is within our reach. Let Peace Begin with Me!

From Deerfield, Virginia: Much appreciated and with God all things are possible. Love is the most powerful frequency in the universe I am a nursing assistant that just walks anywhere just carrying all the love and light within my soul. Thank you for what you are doing for Earth Mother and God's divine plan!

From Charlotteville, Virginia: I thank you for this...let us ALL come together in peace and love and forgiveness...A great and worthy 'experiment'...

From West Jefferson, North Carolina: I will send this website info to about 15 people. Hurray for compassion and agape love for all our brothers and sisters and relations on this planet. May we find more and more ways to deepen this committment.

From Covington, Kentucky: Wonderful wonderful idea! Thank you! I feel like this is something I can participate in at this moment in time that makes sense!! I am forwarding to many friends. Much Love, Light, Peace, & Freedom to you.

From Gainesville, Florida: Without a doubt, gladly I say "it's a done deal!" Peace prevails, look at you looking at me, you and I together are one!

From Westbridge, British Columbia, Canada: I, as a devotee, admire what you are doing. Had to strip it down a bit to make it palatable to the masses, didn't you? Well done though. It is a very real war that we do fight, and make no mistake about that. After this time is when the peace comes. Yet it will come.I have been taught what traps await us in naive perceptions. It is not enough just to wish in docility for everything to be fine, as so many in the ranks of the "new age" movement still do. Nonetheless, it if is the light that we promote and express, then fight we must, and fight very hard sometimes. So if it is for creation we fight, then fight using the forces of creation, not the forces of destruction. This is among the orders of the day, and this is what I see you doing. MY Siblings. So Be It.

From Napa, California: thank you for your creative idea, and for putting it into accessible action for us all

From Santa Barbara, California: Thank you for holding the light. This is the work now. I will enjoy sharing with my students some of the letters on this site.

From New York, New York: This idea is well worth a try and whatever effort is necessary to spread it. Positive thinking and more acceptance of one another is the only way out of this mess we find this world, our world, in.

From Schenectady, New York: what a wonderful idea. This - the internet - is indeed the "network of light" on the manifest level. I am so excited to see it activated so enthusiastcally!

From Columbus, NC: THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! Your site and your dedication to PEACE is truly an inspiration. I feel I am stepping into the circle of peace with each and every one of you and we are connected heart to heart.

From Waterloo, Iowa: I can't begin to tell you how my heart filled with joy last night when I read the E-mail from you. I was so excited to see how much your world peace project has grown and how beautiful and informative your web site is. On September 11th I was filled with fear, depression, hatred and anger -- but mostly ANGER. More anger than I have ever experienced before. It really scared me because I had no idea how to get rid of it. I was consumed with this anger and hatred. It was toward the terrorists. But it was also toward anyone who said or did anything I did not like or approve of. Then, thank God for my two sisters who had something for me to try. They suggested I take all of these intense feelings and offer them up in love for Ossama bin Ladin, his followers, and for anyone else that I wanted to receive love. I started to do that immediately, and just as fast, felt change in my attitude. I began to experience peace again. It was amazing! If my attitude could change that quickly, what could 80,000 people working together accomplish??? I can't wait to find out. I am working on recruiting more people to participate in our world peace experiment. Thank you so much.

From Cairo, Egypt: Peace will prevail, I am sure it will if we realize peace within.

From the Netherlands: Dear Peacemakers, We as students of A Course in Miracles and Attitudinal Healing support the goal of striving forward in maintaining Worldpeace by means of meditating and reading Lesson 186 I am longing for the Peace of God. Thank you for this message. Let the Holy Spirit help us to realize that inner state of peace and let Him help us to forgive all our thoughts of opposition. God bless you

From The Netherlands: Dear Carol and Victor: About a year and a half ago we signed up to take part in the Peace experiment. Today we received your "group-mail" through our msn-communities messageboard. Please keep us informed on the beautiful work you (and all the participants) are doing! Since a year ago our lives have changed for the better rapidly, especially since World Earth Healing Day, June 22. More than ever we are following our dreams, living our Truths and filling our days with as much Love and Light as possible! Just living OUR reality, without ugly interference from media, television and newspapers. (we DO know what's going on in the World but refuse to see it from the narrow minded dark side that most of the common media is trying to show us daily).

From Los Angeles, California: You are correct, Peace begins with each one of us in our daily lives as expressed in our interpersonal relationships and it builds from there exponentially. To be mindful of our responses to the world and to each other, without the violence of judgment toward our own delicate spirits is the beginning of the quest. May we all be in a position to be there for each other during the times when this quest becomes difficult and when we might falter along the path. Shalom.

From Kalamazoo, Michigan: I am grateful to you for initiating this experiment and honored to be part of it. I have no doubts about the effect it will have in my life and on the energy of the planet. I long ago gave up reading the newspaper and watching newscasts on television for the very reason of not wanting to allow that negativity into my consciousness. I have friends who feel that this is "irresponsible" and that it is somehow my "duty" to keep up with current events. My take on that is: if it's something I HAVE to know, I'm sure someone will tell me. Thank you for giving us a phrase to help us daily to cut through the fog of negative illusion and awake our consciousness to this simple truth -- ONLY LOVE PREVAILS.

From Savannah, Georgia: I serve on the Board of Unity Church of Savannah; Your philosophy is in keeping with Unity's views of affirmative thought. Our thoughts create our realty; peace begins within each one of us. Thank you for your affirmation "Only Love prevails"; I will use it. Blessings and light to you.

From Berkeley, California: Our only peace, our only security is universal justice rooted in compassion.

From Rutherfordton, North Carolina: While some people think the Gods (over 2500 gods and goddesses have been documented to date) watch to see who will "win the war", others are more certain that our mutual Creator waits and watches to see when we will learn that the challenges to be overcome are within our hearts. We belong to the latter group.

From Amherst, Massachusetts: I have found prayer extremely effective on a personal level. In the middle of parent/child conflicts I have summoned the strength to separate myself and pray "I pray for a peaceful resolve. Dear guardian please bring the light of God into our perspectives." If you'll notice there is no forcing of my will onto the situation. I have found that EVERY single time the issue at hand has turned around almost instantly.This is no less than a miracle with a preteen!

From Novato, California: First, thank you for providing a positive way for people to respond and be involved. Second, I'd like to suggest that by calling this an "experiment", it seems to leave the result of our visualization somewhat in some doubt. I would say it is more an "act of faith" that we visualize that "only love prevails" and that we make this act knowing it is already done - a visualization of absolute faith that this is true. That part of it is no experiment. I guess it's the 80,000 people aspect that you may be referring to. OK. I see that as an experiment. May it be so.

From Ravenna, Ohio: I am grateful to be part of this process of Peace, Light, and Love. Blessings to all of you who share in this promotion of believing that peace can and will be for the whole world. It is a promise from God. We just have to believe it.

From Grand Prairie, Texas: This is a marvelous idea. Directed, purposeful prayer/meditation has been proven to bring results.

From Faber, Virginia: Only LOVE does prevail. To have world peace, we must project LOVE and PEACE.

From Murfreesboro, Tennessee: I believe this can happen....it will work if everyone changes their perception. I for one am grateful that I have an opportunity to participate in this experiment.

From Asheville, North Carolina: I think with the world situation what it is today peace, love & prayerful thought is what is called for in making decisions - not only by the world leaders, but by everyone.

From Puebla, Mexico: We are a group of 150 pepole who meditate every day for the world peace. We sing the word peace seven times and send our vibration of love and peace all over the world. We send with our strong thoughts our peace vibration into the minds and hearts of all political people who are making the biggest decisions. We see their minds with the light of love, as we know that only the love can make the decisions in their hearts.

From Nambour, Australia: I am happy to sign up for peace--inner peace and world peace are my goasl for life.

From Mount Laurel, New Jersey: Thank you for the opportunity to be part of a movement that comes from the heart.

From Chapel Hill, North Carolina: I have been
