Reflective Approaches to Social Activism
In a world aflame with greed, corruption, inequality and environmental devastation, the quiet victories happening worldwide often go unnoticed.
The Great Coming Together
I was already working on the final draft of Kosmos when a last minute book review came in, so compelling that I literally stopped production.
The Changing Nature of Human Security
Nothing short of a paradigm shift will bring us full circle towards the world we long for. If we are aware of the scientific evidence that people are basically good, we no longer buy into economic greed based on the belief that self interest is our primary motivation.
Sharing the World’s Wealth and Power
We chose ‘Sharing the World’s Wealth and Power’ as the theme of Kosmos and are thrilled by the vitality, depth and breadth that our contributors and readers offered. They shared multiple perspectives and identified differences in the quality of sharing, but also addressed different scales of sharing from individual to community, nation, planet and ultimately to the Kosmos.
Global Synergy
It was so fulfilling to spend several days with a dedicated and skilled group at the first Global Synergizer gathering. Our collective work continues as we strive to articulate the shared vision that has brought us together as world changers.
Spiritual Discovery
There is something paradoxical about crisis. Why is it that at our most dark and despairing moments, some mysterious force enters our psyche to pull us forward, to elevate our consciousness and invite a brand new perspective?
Role of the Commons
With the foresight of a true visionary, Elinor Ostrom, the co-recipient of the economic sciences 2009 award, has spent decades researching the commons.
Birthing Planetary Civilization
These critical times offer unprecedented opportunities to make the aspirations of billions a reality—where the quality of life matters, where there is human solidarity, reverence for nature and moral leadership—and a world of hope for each and every living being.
Transforming Institutions
We understand that recognition of the inadequacy of our traditional institutions is the first step toward taking that great leap into a new era where a higher-level consciousness will be reflected in our transformed institutions.
Journey to Wholeness
We are discovering that in our deepest essence we are travelers on a journey to wholeness (holiness). Each step along the way is a new revelation and a co-creation that involves changes in all dimensions of our lives and in all fields of endeavor.
