eileen ellis message for liz from Ireland | Posted at 10:06pm on Sunday, February 24th, 2008 |
A message for the organisers:when i asked the school to join in this day,the best way i could explain it was to say it was a day of world peace.This made sense to people and they were more inclined to take part.Since then i came across a Peace One day movement which is an annual world day of peace,e... read more » | |

So wonderful to listen to the peaceful sound of silence/ stillness. The invitation of life is to listen to this silence in each moment, everywhere - at any time! | |

We opened our doors to everyone at 6.00am on November 28th for stillness and meditation and ended the 24hrs the following morning at 6.00am on the 29th.A steady stream of people quietly came in and went upstairs for silence and meditation.From the first moment the stillness became very profound as i... read more » | |

About 200 guests gathered in Brahma Kumaris centre in Moscow. All together, listening, thinking and experiencing peace and silence, we created very powerful atmosphere of light and peace. No doubt, we can do it in the whole world also. | |

At 10.00 am Edward, Miranda, Julie, Jackie, and I all stopped for 3 minutes. Jackie said she wondered why she had not done it before. Congratulations on giving the world a wobble of delight | |

I meant to do something for months, and was just too busy. The Buddhist Centre in Colchester organised a day long retreat but I wasn't even able to go to that because of a new job. And then, out of the blue, my local church emailed me to say they were marking Just This Day with a service at 9 am, an... read more » | |

It was great to share this with so many people all over the world. I hope this takes part next year as well. Thank you :-) | |
Doug from Newzealand | Posted at 9:05pm on Monday, December 3rd, 2007 |
all the things that we can see, touch, taste, hear, smell, remember and describe are transient; the peace we can find in stillness is never ending and always the same. | |
Jacqueline Sinclair from UK | Posted at 6:41pm on Monday, December 3rd, 2007 |
It was a unique experience to be sitting in St Martins in the Fields simply being, with nothing to do and nowhere to go, knowing that others were joined in this worldwide. | |
Ina Lempereur from Malta | Posted at 4:53pm on Monday, December 3rd, 2007 |
It was simply wonderful to find a very welcoming place on this day opened as a 'space for silence'. Thanks | |

I FEEL MY HEART SO PEACEFULL... ALWAYS, BUT THIS DAY... MORE AND MORE!!! | |
Katharine Watson from UK | Posted at 8:34pm on Sunday, December 2nd, 2007 |
Here in Dorset there was a strong sense of quiet all day, but especially at 10 am. The Quaker meeting that morning took up the theme of Just This Day, and held silence with us all. | |

Class 3 Longshaw Primary School managed one minute silence. They try for that each day. | |

At any given time in the day there was at least one person at our meditation centre sitting quietly; filling, reflecting and sharing thoughts of stillness, silence and peace with everyone else. | |
Brian Walker from UK | Posted at 8:09am on Saturday, December 1st, 2007 |
May every day have a time for peace; may every day be a day of peace; may every person, everywhere, share that peace. | |

At Bromley Baptist Church 144 years of praise and prayer to God provided a profound background of stillness and peace to a very simple and lovely day | |
Valery from UK | Posted at 8:32pm on Friday, November 30th, 2007 |
Beautiful, simple and so inclusive - joining with individuals from all backgrounds, and across the continents in the experience of silence, in recognition of the importance of both inner and outer peace. | |

A wonderful gift of a day, like a group hug with humanity. | |
Linda Proud Smith from UK | Posted at 3:53pm on Friday, November 30th, 2007 |
What a wonderful day it was - meditation was deep and the stillness underlying everything was evident, even when in traffic. Question: shouldn't I be just as mindful of the rest of the world every day? | |
Irena Nicoll from UK | Posted at 3:50pm on Friday, November 30th, 2007 |
On Wednesday afternoon I meditated at the Mandir in Neasdon and at the Brahma Kumaris and was met in both places with delightful warmth and friendliness. There was a joining with may others in peace. | |
Stephen Prendergast from UK | Posted at 11:44am on Friday, November 30th, 2007 |
I think JTD is a great initiative. We went to the Mandir in Neasden and then on to the Brahma Kumaris, both in north London, and meditated at both. JTD is not just about stillness, it's about meeting people and discovering what they do: that's enriching. Hope you repeat it next year. Hope you put th... read more » | |

The postings here and the e mails received show that something deep within many people was both met individally but that the possibilities of opening our hearts and doors to one another was welcomed, | |

What a gift to share with friends, colleagues and perfect strangers - the stillness allows the perfection to be seen. Please continue the work, its potency will spread as we practice. | |
Judith Lowen from Australia | Posted at 9:55am on Thursday, November 29th, 2007 |

After a severe Earthquake here in Delhi at 04:45 Monday morning which fortunately did not cause too much damage, I was able to keep in mind the forthcoming day of silence and immediately meditated after the shock. | |

What a blessed way to spend a day,we were conscious of the unity of purpose and the depth of substance in every meditation and simple dip into the ocean of stillness throughout the day. May it travel far and wide. | |
Gwyn from Location unknown | Posted at 6:54pm on Wednesday, November 28th, 2007 |
As I stood waiting for the 10 o'clock 3 minute silence the traffic was noisey and busyness was all around. As the 3 minutes passed my whole being connected with this new dawning of peace, even the distant traffic calmed. Excellent work Just This Day please don't stop here. | |

Today offers a blessed opportunity to stop all forms of doing, to go within and rest in the wordless peace of being. Human consciousness united in the eternal present can only be Good. Thanks and praise for this initiative and love to all. | |

TRICIA HOELSCHER from Australia | Posted at 10:20pm on Tuesday, November 27th, 2007 |
I have always loved the peace of silence and believe it gives one enourmous harmony within and externally. The three minutes of silence is an excellent idea, and, wouldnt it be great to just touch hands with the closest person to you at 10am. We move through out lives at a frantic pace and the t... read more » | |
