ANH Generosity Exchange- part 1

[Aurora Carlson]

Dear everyone,

I just read Deepak Chopra's mail to all of us, describing the fantastic impact the ANH is making in our world, and the call to contribute to the financial stability of our alliance.

I asked myself if we could do anything about this together, and the following idea came:

Why not start an ANH Generosity Exchange?

There is an abundance of important gifts each of us brings to our alliance. Would you consider offering your time, skill, services or products to the other members of the alliance in a win-win way?

In short, I thought it could work something like this:
- We organize a space for it
- we list the products or services we are willing to offer
- we give a discount of 1/3 of the price to the buyer/client, donate 1/3 to the ANH and keep 1/3. Or we can agree on any other proportion, or leave it to every one of us to decide what is right for us.

Thank you everyone for this fantastic discussion, please continue to add your thoughts in the next part of our adventure together: Generosity Exchange-Part 2

Love, aurora

Aurora: I think your idea is brilliant! I can see it working well because of the genuine spirit behind it. At the very least it would be a very interesting experiment. ....Where di that idea come from ...were you meditating again?

I will help you if you want to make it a reality.

[Aurora Carlson]

(((Geoffrey)))) I'm smiling and hugging you!

You know where ideas come from... from wherever they were before they came, haha...
The more I think of it, the more I like it. We could even have a "things/books" exchange. Think of all the stuff that lies around in our homes that someone else could use. Think of all the counselling, the gardening advice, the financial expertise, etc... waiting to be turned into a flow for all!

Yes thank you Geoffrey, I would very much appreciate your help in making it real. Why not play a little??

love, aurora

You know where ideas come from... from wherever they were before they came, haha...

That 's pretty much the reply Deepak got when years ago Maharishi wanted him to learn Ayurveda - and was concerned about $$$ to do it. So, his wife just asked him where the money would come from - to which he responded about the same as you Aurora !!!

I saw this on one the Lynne Twist & Deepak video from ANH. Enjoy !!!

[Aurora Carlson]

I know Renata, I heard it too... so that is not the synchronicity. The real synchronicity is that I just got a message from Twitter that Maharishi wants to be my friend :) The threads of the one fabric are everywhere...

[Linda McPharlin]

Sounds like an exciting idea Aurora! Count me in to help and to contribute!

With much gratitude and respect,

Hi Linda, welcome! My answer in more detail is below.

[Janice Kennedy]

Hi Aurora,
I am definately in.

Lots of love
Janice - Pure Inspiration Group

[Aurora Carlson]

Welcome Janice! Pure inspiration is the starting point :) Below is the next step in our conversation.

[Aurora Carlson]

Wow... how wonderful to gather around this idea with you friends! :)

Can you see what a fantastic team we already have? I took a tour around your profiles and we have...

we have Geoffrey, who is interested in not only making money- which we will together transform into "making money for something much greater than money"...

we have Renata, who has long ago understood that her dharma is to create an ethical/ecologic investment/trust and knows the dream is linked with the alliance...

we have Linda who knows there is power in WE and who is on a mission to raise consciousness...

and we have Janice with us, who knows and IS Pure Inspiration!

I add my flavour, which is much about knowing which way and bringing visions closer to manifestation from up there in the field :)

Really, friends, I hope you see that we have what is most important- contact with the Self. So all we need to do is find the most fun and rewarding, the most playful way to do this.

How would you like to do it? How should we organize it? What would you love to do within this project? Tell me what you see/feel/wish, I'll do the same and let's compare notes.

love,
aurora

[Aurora Carlson]

Dear Renata, thank you for reminding us that everyone's dharma is Love :) And then there is great joy in finding out in what way we are individually to be that Love.

I loved your discussion, it is a place of strong intention, attracting an abundance of ideas around funding. Thank you, let's see what emerges!
love, aurora

Hi Aurora,

I joined the alliance when it first started and was only receiving the emails and it wasn't until yesterday that I set up my profile and decided it's time to really get involved. Synchronicity of course :)

I think this idea is brilliant a real barter exchange where we can give to a cause we all believe and help each other. I would love to take part.

[Aurora Carlson]

Dear Raquel, how wonderful to meet you! I am glad that the symphony of our universe has brought you here at this moment. We welcome you to this place of action from the heart, and it will be great to cooperate with you around this project.
love, aurora
