What is the THC Society? Who is the THC Society? Positive vibrations through music, magic and conversations, Thoughts and Prayers Sharon Pacione and David Haith have done much to send eloquent expressions of spirit throughout the internet. Here are some of their postings, which you are free to offer to anyone, particularly to yourself. In fact, all the contents of this page are your property now. Use them as weapons of mass instruction, and help create a peaceful, loving new world order... There is nothing that war has ever achieved we could not better achieve without it. -- Henry Havelock Ellis (1859-1939), Can anything be more ridiculous than that a man would have the right to kill me because he lives on the other side of the water, and because his ruler has a quarrel with mine, though I have none with him? -- Blaise Pascal (1623-1662), Pensees, Dear God, Please send to me the spirit of Your peace. Then send, dear Lord, the spirit of peace from me to all the world. Amen. --Marianne Williamson, Great tranquility of heart is his who cares for neither praise not blame. --Thomas á Kempis, He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder. --Albert Einstein, I keep the telephone of my mind open to peace, harmony, health, love and abundance. Then whenever doubt, anxiety, or fear try to call me, they keep getting a busy signal and soon they'll forget my number. --Edith Armstrong, If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children. --Mohandas Gandhi, If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other. --Mother Teresa, Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind... War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today. --John F. Kennedy, A merely fallen enemy may rise again, but the reconciled one is truly vanquished. --Johan Christoph Schiller, A time will come when a politician who has willfully made war and promoted international dissension will be as sure of the dock and much surer of the noose than a private homicide. It is not reasonable that those who gamble with men's lives should not stake their own. --H. G. Wells (The Salvaging of Civilization), Why does the Air Force need expensive new bombers? Have the people we've been bombing over the years been complaining? --George Wallace, Fear knocked at the door. Faith answered. No one was there. --Inscription at Hind's Head Inn in England, When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it...always. --Mahatma Gandhi, To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success. --Ralph Waldo Emerson, All we are saying is...Give Peace a chance -- John Lennon, A human being is a part of the whole that we call the universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest -- a kind of optical illusion of his consciousness. This illusion is a prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for only the few people nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living beings and all of nature. -- Albert Einstein, They wrote in the old days that it is sweet and fitting to die for one's country. But in modern war there is nothing sweet nor fitting in your dying. You will die like a dog for no good reason. -- Ernest Hemingway (1898-1961), Notes on the Next War, It is easy enough to be friendly to one's friends. But to befriend the one who regards himself as your enemy is the quintessence of true religion. The other is mere business. -- Gandhi., I keep my ideals, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. -- Anne Frank, Mental violence has no potency and injures only the person whose thoughts are violent. It is otherwise with mental non-violence. It has potency which the world does not yet know. -- Mohandas K. Gandhi (1869-1948), An invasion of armies can be resisted, but not an idea whose time has come. --Victor Hugo, Histoire d'un Crime (1852). 12 peace prayers + 2 revised (from James Twyman's book "Praying Peace") (14 represents returning to complete wholeness, the mythology of the 14 parts of Osiris.) ORIGINAL PRAYER OF ST. FRANCIS Lord, make me an instrument of your peace., Where there is hatred, let me bring love., Where there is injury, pardon., Where there is doubt, bring your faith., Where there is despair, hope., Where there is darkness, bring your light., Where there is sadness, bring your joy., Divine Master, grant that I may not seek to be consoled as to console., Grant that I may not seek to be understood, as to understand., Lord, grant that I may not seek to be loved, as to love., For it is in giving that we receive., It is in pardoning that we are pardoned., It is in dying to self that we are born to eternal life.,

The Active Ingredient

Who is the THC society? What is the THC society?

It is more than a group of producers, promoters, MCs, writers and artists. It is more than a organisation. It is merely a node on a network of organisations united by one goal - positive change.

The THC society is more than just the people who organise Below the Belt. It is the regulars who turn up monthly because without you there is no Below the Belt. It is everybody who helps make things happen from journalists to MCs, from psychedelic trance festival organisers in Glastonbury to Techno DJs in Stoke on Trent, from starving artists to Mayan philosophy experts.

The THC society is about more than music, it is about making a positive change, sharing information and promoting creativity. THC assists various NGOs united by their desire to bring about positive change through positive events and sharing information.

The THC is dedicated to the promotion of artists that you deserve to hear. Positive, conscious Hip-Hop suffers from the amount of media coverage given to artists who glorify negativity compared to the lack of media coverage given to more talented and less compromising artists. However, despite our honest bias for breakbeats, The Highjinks and Capers Society is dedicated to promoting all forms of music that deserves to be heard, as long as it's a form of uncompromised self expression. The THC Society was born out of this passion for good music.

This is not a manifesto or a constitution. This is an inaccurate description of an undescribable group of people. The Highjinks and Capers Society is both bonded and driven by a love for music and a love for each other. As long as we continue to assist each other with that protection, that drive and that passion there really is no stopping us.
