Observe ‘Moment of Calm’ on 2nd August at 2pm

31 July 2019 , Pune : The Moment of Calm is a world-wide initiative of peace that calls upon one and all, young and old to pause for 2 minutes on August 2 at 2pm to forgive, clear the heart of ill-feelings and send out vibrations of love to all. One can observe this ‘Moment’ from wherever one is – the elevator, the gym, the office, the home, or anywhere.

The Moment of Calm campaign was launched by Rev. Dada J.P. Vaswani and the Mayor of Oakbrook, Chicago in the year 2012. Launching the Moment of Calm, Rev. Dada had said, “The treasure of this inner calm should be experienced by all of us at least once every day. But if we are unable to do so, then let us enjoy and experience it at least once a year. Our minds are usually turbulent, disturbed and agitated. Our natural state is that of calmness. We need to go within to reinstate it. We can only do so by letting go of any grudges, disturbances, pettiness, selfishness, vengeance and any other negative attributes.” The first one to sign up for this Movement was film maker and actor, Aamir Khan.

Today, the Moment of Calm movement has reached millions from all walks of life. World-over, people have experienced the calmness forgiveness has brought about and vouched their experience of bliss, peace and true solace.

Dada often said, “Hearts at peace will create world peace.” In belief and faith, this year too the Moment of Calm will be observed across the globe at 2pm on 2nd August. Schools, colleges, hospitals, sports academies, NGO’s are supporting the cause. Greater Good Science Center at the University of California, Berkeleyand CCARE of Stanford University are also supporting the cause of Moment of Calm.
