Best viewed in 480p. This is the first of three videos recorded on Glastonbury Tor, England, June 21st, Midsummer day 2010.

A group of friends, some from Facebook, got together to send love to the city of Jerusalem, shared between the three Abrahamic faiths of Christianity, Islam and Judaism. At a precise point, the celebrators gather in a circle and later hug St. Michael's tower, the only remaining part of the medieval church, constructed by the Monks of Glastonbury abbey.
At the time of the hug on the Tor, people from those faiths (and others) linked hands around the City of Jerusalem, shared between Israel and Palestine, in an act of peace and love.
The event on Glastonbury Tor is to show solidarity with the people of Jerusalem. The first scenes show my friend Matthew Holbrook, with his crystal bowl, who joins with others who make their bowls sing also. Matthew's bowl makes the deep humming sound heard in most of the three videos.

Also in this video, we can hear an invocation spoken in Hebrew.

More information when it becomes available.
