On December 21, 2025, a historic global event will unfold as millions of individuals from every corner of the globe unite for World Meditation Day. Under the theme "One World, One Heart," the Heartfulness Institute is organizing a massive 20-minute guided meditation session aimed at fostering global peace, unity, and a collective shift toward higher consciousness.

Why "One World, One Heart"?
The theme reflects a simple but profound truth: while we may be divided by geography, culture, or language, our hearts beat with the same desire for peace and harmony.
The Power of Collective Intention: Science suggests that when a large group of people meditates together, the resulting "group consciousness" can have a measurable calming effect on the environment.
Solstice Energy: By choosing December 21, the organizers tap into the natural rhythm of the Earth’s transition, using the solstice as a catalyst for personal and global transformation.
