40 Days to Oneness
What would happen if you dedicated 40 days of your life to embodying and expressing oneness through service and the recognition of humanity’s interconnection, unity and peace?
On Sept. 11, thousands of people from around the world will begin a 40-day pilgrimage into the heart of oneness leading up to the celebration of the second annual Global Oneness Day on Oct. 24. This prayerful act of worldwide sacred service is based on the 40 daily oneness practices found in The Proof: A 40 Day Program for Embodying Oneness, a book co-authored by Portland-based authors Anakha Coman and James Twyman.
“I believe that unless we have that sense of solidarity among the peoples of the world, all our efforts of peace and security will go nowhere,” says Anwarul K. Chowdhury, the leading emissary of the United Nations Culture of Peace initiative, upon receiving the Global Oneness Day petition signed by more than 50,000 people from 168 countries.
