D.O.M — Dance or Meditate
Aesthetic Resistance to Gravity
Tower ofResonance
"When people dance, they don't think about killing their neighbor."
Jews and Arabs.
Ukrainians and Russians.
Indians and Pakistanis. Serbs and Bosnians. Armenians and Turks and so on.
Hatred and division have been our lot for centuries.
Words have failed us. Wars have failed us.
Politicians and religious leaders have failed to create a bond among us.
We need an activity. We need a communal activity.
Dance is the solution.
If the world dances to the same music at the same time — global resonance is created. That is the goal.
Jazzo D.O.M — Dance or Meditate
This is not a fantasy. This is my dream and this is my plan.
This is also the beginning of reconciliation among these nationalities.
When people dance together — resonance is created. And resonance travels faster than any ideology.
We are starting small. One gathering. One city. One community at a time.
If this speaks to you — join us to create a global resonance. Help organize a Jazzo D.O.M gathering in your city.
Be part of the beginning of the end of this conflict.

A symbol of peace through collective movement.

I had a dream.
I dreamed that I came to God and told Him I wanted His blessing. I wanted to change my life and dedicate it to teaching people to follow their hearts.
God looked at me and said,
GOD
You are not the first to try. Nobody has yet succeeded.
I said to God,
MJ
But, I have a beautiful project. I want everyone in the world to dance together. If people dance as they used to, they will follow their hearts and be in resonance with one another.
If people dance, there will be no more sorrow in this world, and there will be no more women in black mourning their sons. If people dance, women will cry only from happiness.
God nodded and told me,
GOD
I think you should try it.
When people dance, they don't think about killing their neighbor.
“I don't need anything else!” I shouted, and ran toward the gates of heaven.
But God called after me: “MJ, keep in mind — you will not succeed.”
“Why?” I shouted.
“You cannot learn to live by the heart. You have to be born with it.”
And here I disagree with God.
I believe it is our choice. We can decide for ourselves whether to live by the heart — or to live in anxiety and worry.
We are looking for volunteers around the world.
No experience needed. Only the wish to bring people together.
Organize a Jazzo D.O.M gathering in your city. One room, one evening, the same music.
Become the Jazzo D.O.M representative in your country and grow the community there.
Musicians, DJs, dancers, photographers, translators, organizers — bring what you do best.
We especially welcome Jews and Arabs ready to dance together.
