Here is an excellent article written by Zeeva (one of the members of the core team) in my other blog "We Love Mass Meditation".
It is about why we meditate and more importantly we do mass meditation to help with the planetary situation.

------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Light Family: Now, in the beginnings of our new age, this new
cosmic cycle, as the energies of our beloved Mother Earth have shifted,
so, too, are shifting the energies of every living being upon her.
More
and more people are awakening and becoming aware of all that is
happening, that the fields of consciousness on our planet Earth have
shifted, are shifting, and that on, in, and around our planet,
Lightworkers and Lightwarriors have been being very active to help bring
about planetary liberation and change.
Many of you are asking ‘how can I help?’
One
of the best ways to provide energetic support to the Light Forces is by
doing what many call ‘Holding the Light,’ bringing more positive
energies and Light to our planet by doing individual and group
meditations. For this reason, and by request, a global group of
volunteers was formed, called We Love Mass Meditation (WLMM), to help
make meditation accessible and easy for people around the world.
For
ages, mystics around the world meditated together during powerful times
of planetary energies without having the benefit of the internet or
social media. They knew about the solstices and equinoxes, they had
ancient ways of connecting energetically, their astrologers/astronomers
let them know when important cosmic events were happening.
Indigenous
people around the world have travelled to connect and shared with one
another for tens of thousands of years. They knew and predicted our time
would come.
How lucky we are! Since the advent of the
internet, connecting has become much faster and easier to create
synchronized events where we can join together as ONE.
There
are times of the week, the month, the year, where it is most important
to take advantage of the energies. The more people that gather together
in meditation with powerful intention at these times, the faster we
reach what’s referred to as ‘critical mass,’ at least 144,000 people
concentrating, at one point in time, on Love, on Light, on Peace, we
change our world for the better, raising global frequency, which affects
everyone, and supporting the Light Forces.
As certain
events and situations are not planetary in scope, but localized to a
certain part of the planetary surface, the critical mass of meditators
to dissolve them is usually between 5,000 to 10,000 people. And we have
clearly seen the results of this.
For this reason, the
We Love Mass Meditation (WLMM) team, a dedicated team of international
Lightworkers, connected with other dedicated teams of Lightworkers
around the world to create many Guided Meditations: audios and videos
created at the sound frequency now known to be most beneficial to us and
our planet (432 Hz) and in many languages, so we can combine the power
of our focus and intent, and we worked together to find the best times
to synchronize so that the most people in different time zones around
the world can join together as One to help to bring about the change we
all desire and planetary liberation.
Most WLMM
meditations are just over 15 minutes, short enough that people can take a
break from their activities and long enough to effectively raise your
own frequencies and the frequency of the planet, and scheduled at times
when the most people can participate together. We invite you to join
with us.
Personal Benefits
Indeed,
meditation is a practice; and the more you do it, you will find the
better you get. It used to be that you had to go somewhere to learn,
find a teacher, but as we have evolved and human consciousness is
changing, we know what the ancients knew: your best teacher is within
you and meditation helps you to connect with your higher self.
Some
call it prayer. But not all prayer is meditation. Meditation is one of
the oldest practices known to human beings for harmony, inner peace, and
for connection to spirit. It has existed in many forms — in every
culture, in every religion, all around the world. Shamans, gurus,
yogi’s, mystics, medicine people, and seekers have practiced meditation
in some form or another, since the beginning of time. It is a way to
refine our experience, to open a new dimension to our lives, and to tap
into a deep source of positive energy and joy. (1)
When
I began to learn how to meditate as a child, the elders who taught me
did not call it ‘meditation’. I was 3 or 4 years old when they took me
into the forest and taught me how to be still, in the now, and how to
BE. Only as I got older, growing up in a cross cultural community, did I
begin to learn about all the different methods and techniques. Back in
those days, things like yoga and meditation were considered weird,
people joked about contemplating your navel, and mainstream science
ridiculed the concept. But as science and technology developed, lo and
behold their surprise to find that the ancient mystics were right and
there ‘really was something to all this.’
On the
personal level, science found that training our internal mental lives
results in positive effects on our minds, our health, and our
relationships. Multiple studies proved that meditating increased
compassion and social bonding, the more people meditate, the more
skillful we can be in compassionate action. Amazing improvements were
logged in creativity and divergent thinking, (2) and scientists
documented improved visuospatial processing, working memory, and
executive functioning. (3).
Meditation gives us the opportunity to become more present with ourselves just as we are, connecting us to our inherent wisdom.
Science
now has proven benefits to cardiovascular and immune health, and that
sustained long-term meditation increases gray matter, enhances the
ability to generate gamma waves in the brain (among the benefits of that
is making you stronger against pain!) It leads to something called
neuroplasticity: the ability of the brain to form and reorganize
synaptic connections, especially in response to learning and experience
following injury. I am a living proof of that!
Science
has found that meditation can be better than sleeping. It develops
cognitive skills, can reduce hyperactivity, impulsivity and increased
“act-with-awareness” skill. It naturally boosts good brain chemicals,
can balance the left and right hemispheres of the brain, and help you
access your subconscious mind power, build health, and cure disease.
There are multiple studies that prove meditation is more effective
against depression than the pharmaceutical solutions contemporary
medicine offers.
A study from Harvard University
showed that with just 10 minutes a day of mindfulness, a simple
non-denominational type of meditation for the modern-day person, their
subjects (all novices to meditation) reported lower anxiety and less
obtrusive thoughts. That means that just 10-20 minutes of daily
meditation will help you start seeing changes within about 2 months. So
joining into even ONE of the We Love Mass Meditation (WLMM)’s daily
guided meditations will have positive benefits for you personally!
Why MASS Meditation? The Global Benefits:
Science
has also been able to prove something else ancient mystics have always
known: there exists a field of transcendental consciousness that is
basic to creation and permeates all life everywhere.
This
phenomenon is now known to Physics as the ‘Field Effect’ and defined as
an effect of ’coherence and positivity produced from the field of
infinite correlation.’ Per physics, a field effect of consciousness
implies an underlying connection between individuals in much the same
way that physics has uncovered greater unity beneath the diversity of
matter and energy fields.
Since the late 1970’s,
modern day science has proven time and again that with a large enough
group in synchronized meditation, joining together energetically in this
“field quality of consciousness, the extended ‘field-like’ effects are
expressed in society.”
Study after study has
documented the brain changes in individuals who meditate. With “what we
know now about mirror neurons, it should come as no surprise that when a
bunch of us get together with an intent to create peace – we actually
create it!” (4)
Since global meditations began to
be studied statistically and scientifically, it became clear they have
helped to facilitate great change. Research teams that were monitoring
the resonances occurring in the plasma waves constantly circling the
earth in the ionosphere detected unusual spikes in Earth’s magnetic
field on the very days that global meditations took place. (5).
Studies
of synchronized global meditations in the late 1970’s found reduced
global crime rates, violence, and casualties during the times of their
meditation by an average of 16%, a reduction in suicide rates and
automobile accidents in the area where just 7,000 individuals were
mediating together over a course of 3 weeks with all variables accounted
for. In fact, there was a 72% reduction in terrorist activity during
the times at which this group was meditation. (6)
By
the early 1980’s, so many studies confirmed the benefits of global
meditation and its direct impact on everything around the world, even so
far as to have the combined results of almost 50 studies published in
the Journal of Crime and Justice in 1981.
We have known
of these benefits for decades, but it has taken this new century and
entering the time we are in now, the time the people where I live now
call Pachakuti, from the Quechua word “pacha” which means time and
space or the world, and “kuti,” which means upheaval, revolution or
great change. Pachakuti is the long predicted “world reversal.” This
time has been predicted by every indigenous culture around the planet,
the indigenous peoples of North America refer to it as the time of the
Rainbow Warrior. Now our PachaMama (Mother Earth) has shifted and as we
evolve with her, enough people around the world awaken to come together
to create critical mass.
We invite you to join in and BE part of the Change. It
doesn’t matter whether you are a long-time meditator or a complete
novice to the practice. WLMM’s Guided meditations make it easy for you.
They are also available in many languages, and more languages will be
made available as people request and assist with translations. Please
remember, we are all volunteers, so are all of YOU. We welcome you and
appreciate your effort. There are WLMM for every
New Moon and
Full Moon, meditations to help calm
natural and man-made disasters, meditations to
neutralize negative rituals, meditations to support the Light Forces in specific operations.
If there is only ONE mass meditation you can join weekly, the most important is the
Weekly Ascension Meditation, held on Sundays at 4 PM UTC/GMT. There is an event page on Facebook
www.facebook.com/events/966344300172194
and the Guided Audio Meditation (regularly updated as new languages made available) here:
