Earth Prayer

A New Yoga of Global Intimacy to Activate the Consciousness of a New Earth

In my last two posts, I’ve discussed two new intellectual frameworks that highlight the significance of emergent forms of group consciousness to help catalyze the profound shift in culture now called for.

Otto Scharmer’s “Fourth Person Knowing” — the ‘knowing of the collective interior’ — is a new concept for understanding the unique consciousness that emerges in coherent group fields, a way of knowing that, for Scharmer, is “at the core of our planetary moment.”

In First Principles & First Values, authors Gafni and Stein diagnose a ‘global intimacy disorder’ at the heart of our global meta-crisis, which can only be healed by the emergence of ‘new configurations and structures of intimacy.’

Today I’m excited to share about a new global event I’m helping to organize — Earth Prayer — that to me represents something like an embodiment of these ideas.

Earth Prayer is a 48-hour global prayer ceremony taking place August 7-9.

Participants sign up for a one hour and eleven minute prayer slot, during which time they pray for all the other prayer-keepers. This means all participants are held continuously in prayer during that 48 hour window, raising and sustaining their vibration for that entire time.

We start with a zoom call to meet the other prayer-keepers and open the field, and end with another one to release our prayers into the world and celebrate in dance.

Our vision is to have a prayer-keeper from every country on Earth!

We believe that this is how we can activate together the consciousness of a new Earth. We don’t need enormous numbers to plant that seed in the collective psyche. We just need authentic souls from every country joining together in deep intimacy to create a field that carries the vibration of global harmony.

That’s why we’re calling Earth Prayer ‘a new yoga of global intimacy to activate the consciousness of a new Earth.’

At the time of the event, I will be on pilgrimage with a group at Uluru in the heart of my homeland Australia. My wife Kate will be holding it down in her homeland USA. We invite you to join us in weaving your love for your own homeland into a global tapestry of prayers to blanket our Mother Earth.

Kate and I are delighted to be collaborating on this inaugural Earth Prayer Event with our friend and colleague Kahreela An-Ra, a very gifted channel and teacher from the UK. We learned from Kahreela the beautiful Held-In-Prayer technology that we will use in this Earth Prayer, and feel deeply aligned with her visionary gifts.

If you feel inspired, please join us.

And the only way we are going to reach our goal of having a prayer-keeper in every country is if people who resonate with this vision reach out to those they love in other countries — so please share this post with someone you love in another country.
