One Day For Life

“ONE DAY FOR LIFE"

Our friends from Gendaireiki in Trieste are the source of a movement to encourage people to think actively and creatively about life and love on a special day in May each year. In 2018 the day was May 27, and the call went out to people to spend some time with these thoughts.

Where we pay our attention, there we bring our love and to pay attention to life means to begin a love story with the existence.

Love is the best way to celebrate life; love as the joy to feel connected, the information of feeling in unity with someone or something.

When we dance together, we play together, we sing together, we pray together, etc… we feel at home, part of something bigger, part of the humanity, part of the life…and we generate a field of information, which synchronizes our hearts and our minds. Together we can create a new information for this world. As long as we go on reacting always in the same way , we always get the same results. A problem cannot be solved by the same level of awareness that has created it…so, let’s decide now, together, in which kind of information we want to grow up our children.

We need to create again ceremonies, something that makes sacred our passage and the others’ one in this world. On Sunday, May 27th…One Day For Life! Wherever you are, alone or in group, creating events or just staying at home…dedicate 5, 10, 30 minutes or how long you want, to do with joy what gives you joy! Pray, meditate, sing, play, dance, love, create ceremonies by alone or with other people… dedicate your love to Life! You can do it for Water, if you want… Water, which is the symbol of life all over the world, which is the same in all of us! Or simply do it for places or situations which need an help.

Specific Hypothesis and Results

We set an exploratory GCP event for the whole day of the 27th to capture the potential effect on our network. As often happens, there are multiple events of a similar nature, for example, the UNIFY organization also called for synchronized meditation, albeit at a specific time late in the day, 18:30 Pacific time.

The graph shows a strong positive trend for about 3 hours, then settles into a normal random walk for most of the day. The last two hours are a very sharp trend in the downward direction. Since the standard hypothesis is a persistent deviation, we cannot say that there was a significant effect. In any case, my feeling is that the best measure for meditation and prayer gatherings, whether local or global, is the impression on our hearts and minds.

Interpretation

The following graph is a visual display of the statistical result. It shows the second-by-second accumulation of small deviations of the data from what’s expected. Our prediction is that deviations will tend to be positive, and if this is so, the jagged line will tend to go upward. If the endpoint is positive, this is evidence for the general hypothesis and adds to the bottom line. If the endpoint is outside the smooth curve showing 0.05 probability, the deviation is nominally significant. If the trend of the cumulative deviation is downward, this is evidence against the hypothesis, and is subtracted from the bottom line. For more detail on how to interpret the results, see The Science and related pages, as well as the standard caveat below.

Standard caveat

It is important to keep in mind that we have only a tiny statistical effect, so that it is always hard to distinguish signal from noise. This means that every success might be largely driven by chance, and every null might include a real signal overwhelmed by noise. In the long run, a real effect can be identified only by patiently accumulating replications of similar analyses.
