| IRS990EZ/ProgramServiceAccomplishment/DescriptionProgramServiceAccom | 0 | A Brief Report on Our Work Our mission in support of our exempt purpose now is to bring news of the act of looking inward at yourself to the ears of at least 700 million people around the world within a relatively short period of time (3-5 years). We believe that this will trigger a tipping point in the human outlook as to the fundamental nature of human life. We believe that in time, this shift in outlook will drive us all sane and reverse our headlong rush to self-destruction. For this purpose, in September of 2011, we launched the Just One Look project, whose goal is to bring the invitation to experience the power of human consciousness to free itself of the fear of life to all humanity. This is now the main focus of our work to make peace available to all. The first worldwide event of the Just One Look project will be on January 13, 2013 and we plan to broadcast it worldwide via the Internet. We expect to gather many thousands of people around the world who will stop whatever they are doing in that moment and simultaneously take a few seconds to look inward at themselves. We intend that this event will bring the news of the Just One Look experiment into the broad global consciousness More than 90% of our income derives from spontaneous donations from people all over the world. The remainder is profit from the sales of books, CDs and DVDs. Our events and services are always free of charge. This is because we want to be able to speak about these matters with any human being who is willing to listen, including those who cannot or will not pay. 2011 Events and Activities * Online Five-Day Online Intensives. Two series of five meetings each, with a total of at least 67 people from all over the world attending.
