        "content": "<p>Serving others<\/p>\n<p>It is a tough time for all of us. Not only here in Jakarta or<br>\nIndonesia, but all around the world humanity is experiencing the<br>\nchange of time. It is a reform of the worldwide political and<br>\nglobal economic system down to individual transformation.<\/p>\n<p>We have been going down our path of separateness, injuring<br>\nourselves due to our selfishness and greed for wealth and power.<br>\nWe have lived to search for any opportunity to \"take\" rather than<br>\nto \"give\", and to serve ourselves rather than to serve others.<\/p>\n<p>It is now time for us to transform ourselves, and to remember<br>\nthat we all are members of a humanity. To bring about this inner<br>\ntransformation, we are given all kinds of catalysts, from<br>\ndevastating natural catastrophes to manmade calamities, that make<br>\nus suffer beyond normal endurance.<\/p>\n<p>We have been injured physically, emotionally as well as<br>\nmentally. We feel our pain, our sorrow and we are often in<br>\ndespair. We feel the darkness around us, and at times we even<br>\ndoubt if there is a little spark of light at the end of the<br>\ntunnel where we can enjoy peace.<\/p>\n<p>It is human nature that sometimes we cannot help ourselves<br>\nfrom harboring hatred and having the urge for revenge. On the<br>\nother hand, we also notice very clearly that more and more of us<br>\nare deeply touched in our hearts, compelled by an inner urge to<br>\nhelp and to serve others in need. Through the hardship around us,<br>\nmore and more of us have been transformed from having the<br>\nattitude to serve \"one-self\" into dedicating \"one-self\" to serve<br>\nothers.<\/p>\n<p>For those who have felt their innermost calling to serve but<br>\nfeel helpless about what to do to make a difference in this<br>\nphysical world, there is a powerful way they can help on the<br>\nmetaphysical level.<\/p>\n<p>It is by being a channel for the divine energy through<br>\nmeditation and or prayer, which is now being done by more and<br>\nmore people around the world. Global meditation group initiatives<br>\nare forming via the Internet every day, and about 20 million<br>\npeople worldwide are now involved.<\/p>\n<p>BAMBANG PRAMANA<\/p>\n<p>Jakarta<\/p>",
