We, the People, are committed to justice for all, and:

While we recognize that any movement will have unresolved challenges, we support the essence of the call for deep change that the Occupy/Decolonize/We Are The 99% Movements are expressing.

We recognize the important role that spirit, faith and practices of transformation have played in our most admired social movements. Thus, we see a need to create an explicit space within this movement to connect us to that great legacy.

We know it is a critical mass showing up in a collective practice of Presence that will help connect this movement to the heart. We believe such an act will help to deepen, sustain and protect this movement that is all of ours.

Therefore, we call upon all practitioners, meditators, clergy, yogis, people of faith and keepers of spirit to come out in solidarity on November 12th, 2011 at Occupy sites wherever you may be. We will share 108 minutes of our own expression of the sacred, of ceremony, of prayer and of compassion as individuals, as families, and as communities.

On this day, we Take a Stand and Sit4Change in solidarity with the people on the ground, across the country and around the world.

I really thought this might just be a quiet experiment but seeing all these people choosing to show up for the practice is honestly making my head spin. It feels like the energy is finally shifting toward the heart of the movement in a way I almost dared not hope for when I first typed this up. Now we just need to keep that momentum going because the ground is ready for us.

108 minutes of meditation at the camp sounds amazing. Staying centered is the only way we will win this.

Finally some peace in the middle of all this chaos. We really need to keep our hearts in the right place while we fight for what is right.

This is exactly what we need. Movements lose their way without some grounding. See you there.
