6 OSHO One should be capable of rising beyond all theories, philosophies, ideologies; only then is silence attained. And in that silence is knowing, in that silence is revolution, in that silence is God. God is that silence, that stillness, that wordless, soundless, timeless, moment. 26 April

15 Science Science Revolution Evolution in Consciousness Rather than view the things we experience as real and the space that embeds them as empty and passive it is: the space that is real, while the things embedded in that space are secondary. 'God particle' theorists receive Nobel Prize Lends even more credibility to the existence of a field that connects all consciousness and the entanglement that makes evolution possible. It has unparalleled importance for our life and our future. 26 April

16 Work Davos 2014 Mindfulness meditation only got on the programme last year. This year there were multiple sessions including one led by the actress Goldie Hawn and it was mentioned frequently. Leadership - Intel is to make a nine-week mindfulness program available to its workforce of over 100,000 employees in 63 countries across the globe. Mindful Leadership has four primary elements: Mastery of Attention - Clarity of Intention - Optimisation of Attitude and Emotional Intelligence - Integration into every domain of daily life, work and relationships Google - Search Inside Yourself: Increase Productivity, Creativity and Happiness May 2013 This is a new search program at Google, but one without a magic algorithm. A free course Google provides employees that is designed to teach emotional intelligence through meditation to take with you wherever you go. 26 April

17 Wherever you go, there you are. Your luggage is another story. Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in. Breathe out. Forget this and attaining Enlightenment will be the least of your problems. 26 April

21 Dear David With reference to the TES Mindfulness Article on 18 March about Schools Minister David Laws told MPs: We are very interested in promoting this and we certainly think that it is an area that merits consideration based on the evidence we've seen to date. My constituent, Yoga Bowers, asks what evidence base would enable the Government to make Mindfulness Classes available to all UK School Children rather than the fortunate few in the Private Sector? 26 April
