Dive into the fascinating intersection of thought and experience at the 14th annual online session of the Global Energy Parliament. The Global Energy Parliament is dedicated to advocating policy suggestions worldwide for fostering harmony and happiness, and underscores the interconnectedness of all existence and the important role that human beings play in it. Our theme this year is "The Science of Thought: Using Thought for a More Humane World." For two days, experts from around the world will investigate how mastery of thought shapes our reality and collective future. Specialists in neuroscience, cognitive science, consciousness studies and meditation will share their knowledge, and we will have an opportunity to ask them questions. We're bringing the parliament to you online this year to have more opportunities for people around the world to join us at this important time in human history. Change is in our hands! |

The Theme: The Science of Thought Rene Descartes famously said, “I think therefore I am.” Two millenia earlier, the Buddha taught “With our thoughts, we make the world.” Today, humans are connected through powerful digital networks, and their imaginations are influenced by machines. We are heading towards a world which may be completely controlled by thinking machines. It is time to understand our own power before we give it away completely. In earlier sessions of Parliament, we have delved into concepts of the difference between man and machines, and the biophysics of thought and emotion. The founder of the Global Energy Parliament, His Holiness Jagadguru Swami Isa, said that thought is an electromagnetic wave, which has two ends: electrical and magnetic. The electrical field is the digital end, while magnetic field is the emotional or chemical end. In last year’s session of parliament, Members passed resolutions that tied this concept of thought and emotion to the inseparability of science and faith. We called for people, institutions and governments around the world to embrace the interconnectivity of science and faith. In the context of warfare erupting all over the world, we need to consider the genesis of violence and cruelty, which is rooted in human thought. The prevailing culture of the modern world suffers by the loss of our humanity. We are renewing our commitment to understanding thought as the primary catalyst for inner and outer change. A return to humane action will only come about through a new way of understanding ourselves. We need to explore the intersection between the physics of thought and the traditional teachings of ancient cultures to better understand how the power of thought can be harnessed to create a more peaceful, balanced, and sustainable world for all living beings and nature. We require a return to the idea of the ‘humane’ being and to put it in action, which includes a reorientation in local governance, local development as well as national & international relationships. |

Format We are the first and only global parliament, designed for human beings who feel a responsibility to improve the conditions of life on Earth. People from all nations join together and examine some of the most formidable challenges facing the world today, collaborating on innovative, viable and science-based solutions in a spirit of harmony, peace, and brotherhood. The Global Energy Parliament encourages meaningful exchanges and collaborations in a structured democratic process - devoid of politics. Every Member of Parliament has a voice, and to give time to all, we have a formal structured format. The Honourable Speaker controls the discussions. Members of Parliament can raise questions, give submissions, respond to others, and vote. The programme begins with an Inaugural Function which includes speeches by distinguished guests and the Founder's Address, which provides the vision for the session of parliament. Parliament begins with new Members taking an oath followed by the Question Hour where Members can ask questions to the Ministers. Afterwards, we will have a hearing of experts who are called to give testimony on the topic, with time for MPs to ask questions. Call-Attention Motions may be allowed (if time permits) on matters of urgency. Ministers will submit draft Bills, and discussions will be held, followed by voting. Members will make submissions, and discussions will be held, followed by voting on resolutions. Based on their research work, Members draft Written Submissions before Parliament. During parliament, they deliver them as short Oral Submissions. Learn more about Submissions. Our aim is to arrive at decisions on recommendations to the world's governments and international agencies, that will become a Resolution or an Act of Parliament. We share these with all governments and international agencies worldwide. See how the Question Hour works:

The Organizer
The Global Energy Parliament (GEP) is an international body working for science, sustainability, and peace, founded by His Holiness Jagadguru Swami Isa. We are a pioneering international parliament that welcomes individuals dedicated to global responsibility and inner transformation as Members of Parliament. Our Mission is to
Our Vision is to
Since 2010 GEP has organized annual international sessions of parliament bringing together scientists, thinkers, artists, activists and global citizens as Members of Parliament who discuss and collaborate on innovative solutions to the most pressing issues facing the world. The Acts and Resolutions of the Parliament are conveyed to the world's governments annually. GEP is founded on Swami Isa’s unified theory called the I-Theory. Its premise is that everything in the universe is a manifestation of vibration (energy), the most basic unit of which is called an I-particle. Three variations of frequencies and wavelengths of the I-particle vibration creates all the qualitative and quantitative differences in the manifested universe. The human being and the universe are both constituted by this basic element. The parent organization of the GEP is the Isa Viswa Prajnana Trust (IVPT), a charitable organization founded in 2000 and holds Special Consultative Status to the United Nations ECOSOC. |
