After finishing high school, she completed her vocational training as a geological preparateur at the internationally renowned Senckenberg Museum in Frankfurt am Main. Her tasks at the museum ranged from preparation of fossils to the supervision of archaeological sites in Germany.
 
After the early death of her mother, Karin Tag set out in search of the truth and studied many religions and cultures. This was followed by an intensive study of the biblical scriptures, the reconstruction of Solomon’s temple, the writings of Pythagoras and the research of Aristotle. In 2012, she received the personal blessing of Pope Benedict XVI.
 
She was also very interested in Celtic, especially the Avalonian tradition, which she revived by founding the Avalonian School, where students learn the ancient rituals and traditions of the annual cycle.

Through her many travels she came into intensive contact with Hinduism, but also with shamanism, and experienced some important initiations from Inca shamans in Peru as well as shamans of Nepalese and European traditions. Through her close collaboration with the Mayan elder Hunbatz Men, she was initiated into the Mayan traditions. This was followed by teachings of Sufism and the Koran.

Galsan Tschinag was born at the beginning of the 1940s in the Altai mountains as a Tuwa nomad of western Mongolia. He was born and raised in a Mongolian yurt and his first teacher was a female shaman. The chants and epics of his tribe and the landscape of the mountain steppe, which he expressed in verse early in life, left an imprint on his personality. After graduation from school he went to Leipzig (former German Democratic Republic) in 1962, where he studied the German language and philology. It was in Germany, where he began his authorial work. In 1968 he returned to Mongolia and became a lecturer of German language at the University of Ulan Bator.

Swami Isa was born in India in 1956, founder of the Global Energy Parliament and of the aid organization „Isa Viswa Prajnana Trust“, realized yogi.

„Seva (social service) means first one must renounce, then do one’s duty. What is renouncing? Being able to see God everywhere. That is the true beginning of selfless service.“ – Swami Isa

In 1998 Swami Isa first established a school, promoting a new educational concept. This integral concept has been discussed on several educational conferences on international level. Until today it has been adopted by numerous educational institutions in India.

In 2000, Swami Isa founded the „Isa Viswa Prajnana Trust“ (IVPT) as a non-profit charitable organization to render services to society and for people in need.

Some of the social service activities of the Trust are:

Medical Camps:

For those who do not have access to healthcare, diseases can be life threatening. The medical camps provide medical services and care for the control of the most common diseases which affect the community members. They offer health-care programmes, including regular health check-ups, medical aid during the wet season, „Health Awareness Classes“ for the resolution and prevention, as well as programmes to promote medical treatment with indigenous healing plants and herbs.

Technology Awareness Camps:

Due to poverty or other social handicaps, many children in the community are unable to gain access to higher education, especially in modern technologies. The free „Technology Awareness Camps“ give these needy children an opportunity to learn and work with computers and other technology.

Assistance to the Disadvantaged:

The service for mankind is the highest responsibility for humans. For that reason Swami Isa supports children, elderly, sick, impoverished and otherwise needy persons in an ethical and financial way.

In 2000 Swami Isa established the Global Energy Parliament (GEP), an international board of scholars, scientists, professionals and leaders of public opinion, whose aim is to create conditions for the peaceful existence of human beings and the planet, based on a more comprehensive understanding of the nature of energy. The 1st Congress of the GEP took place in Trivandrum, southern India in 2010.

Dr. Masaru Emoto (born 22 July 1943, died 17 October 2014)
 
Honorary member of the Council of World Elders, recipient of the Peace Feather Award of the Council of World Elders for his life’s work for his research into the hidden messages in water.
 
Masaru Emoto was born in Yokohama, Japan. He was a graduate of the Yokohama Municipal University’s department of Humanities and Sciences with focus on International Relations. In 1986 he founded the IHM Corporation in Tokyo. In October of 1992 he received his Doctorate for Alternative Medicine from the Open International University. In the years to follow he was introduced in the US to the concept of micro clusters of water and into magnetic resonance analysis technology. Thus his quest to discover the mystery of water began.
 
He undertook extensive research into water on our planet not so much from a scientific point of view but more from the perspective of a thinker with an original mind. He discovered that it was in the frozen crystal form that water showed us its truest nature. He has gained worldwide acclaim for his pioneering research and discovery that water is deeply connected to our individual and collective consciousness.
 
Dr. Emoto is the author of many best-selling books, among them ‘Messages from Water’, ‘The Hidden Messages in Water’, ‘Water Crystals’ and ‘The True Power of Water’. With his photographs of water crystals he has impressed millions. They proved that thoughts and words have a direct influence on the form of water crystals and consequently on the human body which as we know consists mainly of water and thus on basically everything that exists. He made visible the energetic correlation between the power of thought and form in matter and thus became an important teacher for many people.
 
Through his world-wide prayers for peace held by the sea, near rivers and lakes, Dr. Emote gave us a demonstration of love and gratitude. He dedicated his entire life to the healing of this planet and to world peace. Due to his untiring efforts he often went beyond his own personal limits. He set examples for all people regardless of age and culture.
 
We would like to express our gratitude to Dr. Masaru Emoto for his magnanimous co-operation, his support and his longstanding honorary membership of the Council of World Elders. He was one of the great peace makers of our age.

Bob Randall passed away May 12 2015.

Bob Randall is a “Tjilpi,” a special teaching uncle and elder of the Yankunytjatjara Nation and Anangu People.

Born in the central desert bush around 1929, he and his family have been the traditional carers of Uluru, the great monolith described as the “Red Heart” of Australia for many 1000’s of years. He is an international educator, author, story-song composer and singer, subject of several documentary films, and recipient of numerous humanitarian and peace awards, including Indigenous Person of the Year.

As a member of The Stolen Generations, his song, „My Brown Skin Baby“ brought international attention to the plight of many thousands of half-caste children forcibly removed from their families by order of the Australian government.

“Uncle Bob,” as he is affectionately known, speaks and teaches about “Kanyini,” the Aboriginal “Anangu” philosophy of living in peace and harmony with unconditional love and responsibility for self, the environment, and all life.

As Uncle Bob says, “Kanyini is unconditional love and being responsible. It is my responsibility to look after every living being on earth with love.”

Maile Ngema Lama belongs to the people of the Tamang who are part of a Tibetan language-group. She became a shaman at the age of eight and was given the ancient knowledge of healing. She completed her education in the tribal traditions at the age of eleven, and has been practising her knowledge of healing ever since.

Maile Ngema Lama is one of the most famous healers of Nepal. Today she is a respected shaman and healer in Kathmandu, the capitol of Nepal. She works at the Shamanistic Studies and Research Centre of Mohan Rai.

Already in 2004 Don Pedro Guerra Gonzales started a project to reforest medicinal plants, campaigning for a lasting use of the gigantic rainforests in the Amazon. He created in his camp a garden with approx. 80 varieties of medicinal plants and trees thus trying to preserve important medicinal plants of the rainforest.

Don Pedro is a tree shaman. Tree shamans receive their spiritual knowledge from the spirits of the ancient jungle giants. Tree shamans are the representatives of the wisdom of the old world; they are able to express the spirit of the medical people of the healing traditions most forcefully. In the hierarchy of healing traditions in the Amazon they are the highest-ranking healers, they have the greatest powers. The old cultures in the Amazon did not know books; educational methods were geared to sharpen the senses over years with sophisticated, hard diets thus enabling the disciples to dialogue with the forces of nature using supernatural skills.

As a member of the Council of World Elders Don Pedro Guerra Gonzales is a representative of the peruvian rainforest.
