Butterfly Effect, Awareness of Consequence – Take Positive Action!
September 19, 2012 by Team Celebration
In chaos theory, the butterfly effect is the sensitive dependence on initial conditions, where a small change at one place in a deterministic nonlinear system can result in large differences to a later state. The name of the effect, coined by Edward Lorenz, is derived from the theoretical example of a hurricane's formation being contingent on whether or not a distant butterfly had flapped its wings several weeks before. Although the butterfly effect may appear to be an esoteric and … [Read more...]

August 30, 2012 by Team Celebration
JOHANNESBURG, August 2012 (IRIN) - Boys learning new ideas of masculinity around campfires in rural Africa and “sisterhoods” formed to provide a common voice to women are starting to change attitudes about African women farmers, say the authors of a forthcoming book about gender and agriculture. But it will take many more such efforts to support women food producers, who make up 43 percent of the agricultural labour force in developing countries.

Purity, what is it?
August 29, 2012 by Team Celebration
'What is PURITY?' PURITY is a state of being; it requires eons of time to consciously awaken in the thinking mind. It is the key to perfection in matter. PURITY is compassionate understanding and is aware that each soul struggles for conscious realization in form. PURITY is cleanliness of thought. It does not soil itself with negativity that separates; darkness dissipates or obstructs the energy of the soul. PURITY is kindness and selflessness toward all life; the desire to willingly … [Read more...]
