About Me

Layout made by alvin_ward155 at CreateBlog.com . If Poetry Can Unite Israelis and Palestinians Imagine What it Can Do for YouWhile guns and bombs work to tear communities apart, spoken word artist Dreaming-Bear Kanaan is using the simple power of words to bring them back together. For over 15 years, Dreaming-Bear has been working to unite victims of conflict through poetry, art, and music in countries such as Nicaragua, Russia, and most recently the Middle East. His universal message of forgiveness, unconditional love, and peace combined with his linguistically brilliant delivery not only convey the beauty of such concepts, they allow you to fully experience their transformational power.DreamingBear Baraka Kanaan is an internationally renowned spoken word artist, author, and peace activist. He poetically blends quantum understandings of the universe with inner expressions of the heart, offering a fresh perspective on how to transform pain into beauty. Most recently, his work has been focused on the war torn regions of the Middle East, where he uses creativity and art to build bridges of commonality between life-long enemies.The foundation for Dreaming-Bear’s work as a transformational artist is deeply personal. Born to a runaway teenage mother and refugee father, he survived through years of poverty and abuse. When he was eight years old, he witnessed the death of his brother and the kidnapping of his sister. To cope with an overwhelming sense of pain and loss, he began to write, beginning the alchemical inspiration for metamorphosis and spiritual discovery.Dreaming-Bear has traveled the world extensively, sharing his message of unconditional love and fulfillment of personal potential with audiences as diverse as United Nations dignitaries, corporate groups, and third world refugees. He holds a master’s degree in Communications and is the author of seven inspirational books and many spoken word cd’s, dvd's & films. Dreaming-Bear is a frequent guest in the media, hosts his own weekly radio show on www.dreamingbear.net, and was featured in Without Walls, a documentary on peace in the Middle East. He is an acclaimed keynote speaker and conducts seminars, workshops, and inspired gatherings worldwide.

Come sip anti gravity tea & float with me among the galaxies as we indulge in this new paradigm wine of individuated fractal time:) Because if we just hug each other long enough without judgment, we can give the whole world permission to make a fresh start.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

The ~Lovevolution Foundation~ is dedicated individual and universal transformation towards making the world a more kind place through efforts which evolve/revolutionize old compassionless paradigms into new love based world views. The Lovevolution Foundation philosophy is based upon on four simple universal principles, which are as follows: educational entertainment as inspiration and catalyst for internal metamorphosis, Earth centered ecosystem awareness & conservation, peace advocacy via conscious expansion through creative expression, i.e. the promotion of global unity, through compassion in action, & spiritual/scientific unity through cross application of intrinsic commonalities in scope & intention. Education as Entertainment: making use of cutting edge knowledge from the various academic disciplines as a way of inspiring this world into a willingness to embrace their highest potential on every level. Earth Centered Awareness: conservancy and promotion of a sustainable healthy biosphere promoting a clean environment for future generations to inhabit. International Peace Advocacy: promotion of cross-cultural, transgender, & international equanimity by building relationships founded in the celebration of creative arts in order to unify rather than divide. Spiritual & Scientific Unity: by focusing on the commonalities between spiritual & scientific traditions we wish to create a dialogue for recognizing our inherent inter-denominational oneness & planetary unity. The primary focus of TLF is to facilitate the emergence of individuals who actively seek to evolve into their fullness by offering inspiration as a path to fulfill one’s creative, spiritual, & intellectual potential. It is our intention to quantum leap forward a sort of new ‘science of the heart’ in order to co-create a more peaceful, creative, and educated society, in a project we call “lovevolution,” pronounced Love-volution. The concept behind Lovevolution is part evolution of intellectual & human centered processes into an ‘enlightened’ state, and part revolution of the way we approach our everyday lives by “being the change we seek” as Gandhi said.Lovevolution Foundation has already begun to cooperate with mainstream media, academic & spiritual community efforts, & international partners to co-create inspirational events, both through television, radio, internet & community sponsored events that contribute to empowering this generation to evolve into their potential fullness. Through conscious gatherings & events designed to promote creativity, happiness, and proactive peace advocacy in action, Lovevolution’s aim is to raise a generation ready for meeting the challenges our planet & our species are facing We ultimately wish to establish a ‘Center for Metamorphosis’ available to the public, in order to facilitate the emergence of new thought, through classes, community centered events, spiritual gatherings of all faiths, as well as academic & scientific establishment inclusion. Some examples of our outreach efforts may appear in the form of conscious documentary & inspirational films, media productions including the use of music, spoken word, art, books, various printed materials, & world tours of education, designed to explore relevant social issues facing our generation. In so doing, we wish to develop a cross global interpersonal dialogue to discover commonalities of humanity through mind, body, & spirit expressions.On a personal level, the Lovevolution Foundation is dedicated to promoting a positive energy centered message of oneness, through all available mediums. A great deal of our effort will be focused on healing the broken hearted by using the concepts of forgiveness & unconditional love as a way of letting go of the wounded past, and transforming personal pain into creative beauty. The music, poetry, dance, art, & conscious performances represent the beginning of our inspirational efforts to make the world a more tender & beautiful place. Lovevolution creates a sense of self-rediscovery through encouragement of enacting one’s gifts in ways that contribute back to our communities.The ‘Center for Metamorphosis’ is an establishment where science & spirituality can be co-expressed in the form of creativity, commonality, and interpersonal relationships within functional community settings. Our intention is to help whole generations of people deal with personal hardships; through cultivating their creative gifts we hope to unconventionally help a society that has been sent reeling by the overwhelming nature of ugliness such as the prejudice/intolerance/inequality, the cruelties of neglect & abuse, and the negative aspects of international wars. We seek to help others recognize ways to make their own lives & by extension, the lives of others more meaningful, and inspire them to take control of their ability make a positive & lasting contribution to the global family. We believe that the key to this “Lovevolution” can be found in our creative potential, our self-determined propensity for happiness, our ability to reject the ugliness of fear, & the understanding that together we can make the world more beautiful than it was before we came into it, by simply by being the inspiration we wish to see in this world.For more information about the Lovevolution Foundation please contact our founding lovevolutionary:DreamingBear Baraka Kanaan 810 Hauki Rd. Ste 113 #808 Haiku Hi, 96708 415-692-5413
