And please note the time of 11:11 < no accident.  This number is a re-minder to "look at the bigger picture".

I had some interesting dreams following the meditation. What moved me most though was the fact that millions of people came together for an hour. If so many care about the future of the species enough to get up in the middle of the night or interrupt the work day, then maybe there is still hope. Maybe even a lot of it.

I witnessed bursts of violence around me the days following the meditation. Did anyone notice anything similar? Perhaps the meditation derailed our negative mindset and now we are trying to demonstrate through violence that the negative mindset is correct so we can get back into it?

5 million people won't really be effective enough for anything if they are not properly focused and trained....
Also, energy has no charge, it is neither positive nor negative... energy only has the charge as long as intent is linked to it... removing the energy does no good, because the intent is still there... removing both energy and intent is usually bad, because while it removes the negativity from us, it still passes that intent elsewhere... the universe does not cleanse it..., it simply allows it to drift. It could then affect anything. To properly remove negativity requires more than just a bunch of people sending energy... IT requires a true desire for humanity itself to change its outlook and emotions, to remove from the mind the perception of negativity.... All this did was send the negativity to another group of sentient beings, or possibly even empower the negativity. Don't expect much though.
