Positive Possibilities and Diet Coke Parties
Positive Possibilities are not a party per se, but a new pan-Patria movement that has developed over the course of Campaign 2010 to bring a new dimension to Patria's consciousness and spiritual growth for a new decade. Positive Possibilities' main campaign slogan is "I AM open, ready, willing to be completely restructured around the positive possibilities of the 49th Congress".
Positive Possibilities is a conscious company launched in Toronto, Canada in 2009 by the innovative singer/songwriter/producer/performer Parvati. The company’s mission is to enhance the quality of people’s lives by connecting our communities with products and events that support co-creation through music, arts, education, community, cultures and the environment by bridging the market leaders in holistic industries with the music and entertainment industries. Since Yoga is officially Patria's national sport, Positive Possibilities is taking it beyond the traditional settings of ashrams and yoga studios and into daily life, even seeking to take yoga into nightclubs with its Yoga in the Nightclub campaign.
The Positive Possibilities movement is also seeking to move Patria towards I AM consciousness. What is I AM consciousness? To live in I AM is to live knowing that one's true nature is love, that we are all interconnected and that one is loved unconditionally. To live I AM is to be in service to the creative flow, which is beyond the limited grasp of our ego or personal will. I AM is also related to the IAM (Integrated Amrita Meditation) technique developed by Amma and the Mata Amritanandamayi Math organization.
On the other side of Positive Possibilities ("Negative Possibilities" perhaps?) are the Diet Coke Parties, Patria's version of the Tea Party movement. There aren't a lot of tea drinkers in Patria, and in any case the movement needed a name to distinguish itself from the US bunch of Tenthers, Truthers, Birthers, gun-loving NRA members, economic conservatives, social conservatives, and other assorted hard-right patriots. As in the US, the Diet Coke Party movement an ideological mix of libertarianism and conservativism with the common denominator being lower spending and smaller government.
