21 December has been designated by the United Nations as the annual Global Day of Meditation. In response, a new initiative has been created: the Millions Meditating Alliance (MMA). The project was founded by Lauren L’Amour, who is deeply inspired by Ananda. 

MMA is calling for millions of people around the world to meditate at some point on Sunday, 21 December 2025, the Winter Solstice.

Already, more than 500,000 people have indicated that they will be meditating that day! Several scientific groups will also be observing global coherence indicators to better understand the impact of large-scale meditation.

Ananda is already listed as a sponsor. Ananda Village has sent an invitation letter to all their members and meditation groups, and Ananda Assisi is doing
the same.

Sunday morning, December 21, the 9 a.m. meditation at the Blue Lotus Temple is designated as our official meditation in participation of this worldwide event. Our meditation is in-person AND live and includes, as it does each week, the fire ceremony, Purification ceremony and silent meditation. This same day is our official Christmas Pageantry Service and includes after-Service Christmas carols and a gala snack feast to follow.

We invite your support and participation in this worldwide event. For more information you can visit: Millions Meditating

May this Winter Solstice Christmas be a turning point in human consciousness toward the Light.
