Do we dare to live the life of freedom, responsibility, maturity and the dialogical affirmation of mutuality? Do we dare to be the change we desire? Will we come together in the late twilight to be the sacred activism and the shaping of God into prayer that is an embracing compassion and our deliverance from the addictions of greed and violence, ignorance, hatred and fear?
Enter then together the pattern of biotic solidarity in the conversion of inner evolution into a…

In times like these we are faced with a choice!
Do we sit in our ivory towers surrounded by crystals, self help books, reciting positive mantras, or in our modern houses, surrounded by the treasures of our material attainments, cocooned in our individual frames of reference, saying "that it won't happen to me, I am ok!"
Or do we face the facts, observe the world around us, even the shadow aspects of which we find uncomfortable, and act…

From a successful crime-prevention model we moved on to studying complexity, but we did not find in mainstream science what we were looking for. So we have proposed some new concepts, these are some of our findings:
Complex order is created by intention, rules of action and information.
All three of these elements are really information. Information is everywhere and is the basis of our Universe. The Universe is entangled by information. The Universe learns by…

from the statement prepared by the Bahá'í International Community's Office of Public Information, Haifa, Israel, 3 March 1995
The task of creating a global development strategy that will accelerate humanity’s coming-of-age constitutes a challenge to reshape fundamentally all the institutions of society. The protagonists to whom the challenge addresses itself are all of the inhabitants of the planet: the generality of humankind, members of governing institutions at all levels, persons…

From January 11th New Scientist article: At the beginning of the 1970s, a group of young scientists set out to explore our future. Their findings shook a generation and may be even more relevant than ever today. The question the group set out to answer was: what would happen if the world’s…

As long as prophecies do „fulfil“ it means that the unconscious reigns. Not before ultimate consciousness (love) transcends all what is -and by doing so redeems all limitations of what is known already- there is unfolding. Unfolding of an enfolded order which is not predictable because the eyes of today have not yet learned to see the truly new.
The work of unfolding inner truth is individual. All contacts in our live are inspirations for this unfolding. Be it the inspiration in…

UNICORN RISING
grazing on green violets in spring
we hear with gentle hearts
the soft sounds
of new music
from green gold reeds
as the sun warms a new Dayrose
on slender vines
strong enough to weave new clothes
for the Emperor
born from the breath of the Unicorn

Butterfly Imaginal Cells are not deterred though. They appear in even greater numbers, and cluster in commUNITY. They recognize each other and bond, until sufficient Imaginal Cells organize into new structures, along new organizational…

Article by Bill McKibben in the Daily Kos.
"The most important piece of news yesterday, this week, this month, and this year was a new set of statistics released yesterday by the Global Carbon Project. It showed that carbon emissions from our planet had increased 5.9 percent between 2009 and 2010. In fact, it was arguably among the most…

The global emergency that we face is nothing new to our species. As only being connective tissue for energy that has flowed for eons, and will continue to flow even after our imminent demise, we ebb and flow like the tide and sometimes the ocean changes and water becomes desert.
Let us not worry about changing the world. Changing ourselves is all that is needed. Understanding that small steps in life lead toward large changes, let us walk forward by recognizing the beauty that…

Those who put their reason above their soul and emotions, are not ready to understand this, yet.
These people embody the cause of a lifestyle saturated with rationality, denigrating the emotional side of their nature.
These people assign a negative meaning to the word “visionary”, as visionaries emphasize emotions as much as rationality.
Things don’t change, visionaries remain what they are, it’s the point of view that changes!
Step 1

As I watch the news, I reflect upon the role Twitter is playing in the shaping of world events, I remember the news images of the hotel bombing in India ...the images of flocks of birds flying back and forth in front of the cameras...the bombed hotel in the background. It was reported that Twitter posts played the first…

Sensibili, sognatori e perché no: visionari!! Gli esseri che salveranno il mondo.
Coloro che antepongono la ragione al cuore e alle passioni non sono in questa fase i giusti interlocutori, sono il frutto di una società satura di razionalità e che denigra tutta la sfera emotiva, coloro che ci additano come visionari.....ed hanno ragione, ma non nell'accezione negativa che associano all'essere visionario.
Non cambiano i fatti ma se ne inverte il punto di vista.
