Web Link Club of Budapest
The Mission of the Club of Budapest is to be a catalyst for the transformation to a sustainable world through
* Promoting the emergence of planetary consciousness
* Interconnecting generations and cultures
* Integrating spirituality, science, and the arts
* Fostering learning communities worldwide
The philosophy of the Club of Budapest is based on the realization that the enormous challenges that humanity is currently facing can only be overcome through the development of a global cultural consciousness. The view of the Club of Budapest is focused on a cultural consciousness with a global perspective. Like Greenpeace fights for ecological issues, UNICEF for children, and Amnesty International for human rights, the Club of Budapest stands for global consciousness. Its mission is to be a catalyst for the transformation to a sustainable world. The Club perceives itself as a builder of bridges between science and art, ethics and economy, between cognition and realization, between old and young, as well as between the different cultures of the world. One of the prime objectives of the work of the club is the initiative "You Can Change the World". |

Web Link WorldShift Network
Indisputably the world is undergoing a fundamental transformational process, a global change. Which trend the change will follow is in the hands of those, who have the decisive power to direct and design the change.
Motivated by the impression that at the beginning of the 3rd millenium the trend of the change is dominated by forces, which in the past have contributed to turn our home planet into a life-threatening place for humanity as well as for vast parts of non-human nature, the undersigned are founding the WorldShift Network.
As an initiative of the Club of Budapest the founders want to establish a worldwide network which traces, connects and encourages all those associations and individuals, who are working honestly and sustainably to shift the life-threatening trend of the global change into a life-fostering direction, and lead them to political effectiveness within civil society.
Maybe the last minute has come where it is possible to stop the downward trend and transform planet earth into the world, for which the most noble emotional, intellectual and spiritual abilities of humans are meant.
In the course of younger history, science, technology, economy, and communication have peaked in a way that promises to solve the material problems caused by the development of the very same abilities. Considering this the WorldShift Network will be guided by human abilities which have been neglected for a long time: self-awareness, compassion and wisdom. Thus the WorldShift Network is ready to help giving birth to a new global culture, deeply imbued with spirit, fully aware of and supporting the evolution of global consciousness, inspired by love, and preserving and fostering life.

Web Link The Awakening Process
“When I Awaken…Soul Passages” is an expression of the daily sharing Shirley began to create in 2003. Although we may not be aware of it, we all receive information from our Inner Source through the worlds between dream-like sleep and awakening. These messages from Source come to Shirley during these dreamtime visions. Upon awakening, Shirley goes outdoors to her garden and she walks her Medicine Wheel. The messages she receives during these times become the messages she writes each day and sends to her friends as Words of the Day. This book contains these beautiful thoughts. As you read this book, write your thoughts in the Journal Pages, and listen to the accompanying CD, the doors to your soul will be awakened to its full potential and possibilities. As you open those doors, your passion for life will soar." |
