At the top of the page you will see all the different color tabs. Each tab has a different focus.

Read the Menu Tab's: ( Home, Participation, Intentions, Indigenous, Voices, Library ) and read each Tab's contents and instructions. This is an important step to learning all the ways the site can be used by you to search and share information/events and have communication with others around the world.

Each Tab is a world of its own and you decide how you would like to participate. After you are familiar with each section you may move to the underlying menu option (Volunteer, Wall, World Events....etc.) for further information and participation.

To begin participating please look under the blue tab and register on the site. It takes less than 5 minutes and once you have confirmed your account you may then choose what area you would like to participate in.

To submit an article or video, (Indigenous Message, Intentions article, Wall, Events, Meditation/Prayer) please use the Submission link located at the top of the sidebar on the Intentions, Indigenous, Voices, Events or Library pages. (Please submit under the correct page submission that corresponds with what information you are sharing.)

To submit a project idea or radio guest recommendation, please use the Submission feature located on the Projects and Radio pages respectively.

To comment or share feedback on a particular project or event, you may post it in the corresponding thread located in the Forum. This is where you may choose to have dialogue from people around the world or in your area.

To comment on an article you find in any of the feed boxes, post it in the comment section located beneath the article/video in question.

Forum area; Once you have registered you may also choose to participate in the Forum. All threads are started through Events section with Meet ups, Meditations and Posted Events. In this area if you like you can add to your profile by adding an avatar and more information to share about who you are. This is optional. (In the future we hope to add the avatar feature to the rest of the site.)
