Wir leben noch immer in einer 'Entweder-oder'-Kultur, nicht in einer 'Sowohl-als-auch'-Kultur. Wir achten noch immer auf den Rang-

[Rankismus], statt uns zu vernetzen. Statt eine zirkuläre Weltsicht zu vertreten, betrachten wir das Leben noch immer aus hierarchischer Sicht. Tatsächlich haben wir im Lauf der menschlichen Geschichte größtenteils anders gelebt. Es ging um Verbunden-

, nicht um Rangordnungen. Der Kreis war das Paradigma der Gesellschaft.

Nach Wilber können 25% der Bevölkerung (Grünes Mem) die Integrale Politik verstehen,
jedoch nur 2% (Gelb/Türkises Mem) können sie vertreten und betreiben.
"Cognitively about 25% of the population will understand [integral politics] and often feel attracted to it."

Zitate zum Thema Paradigmenwechsel / Paradigm shift

Zitate allgemein

Man füllt auch nicht neuen Wein in alte Schläuche; sonst zerreißen die Schläuche und der Wein wird verschüttet und
die Schläuche verderben. Sondern man füllt neuen Wein in neue Schläuche, so bleiben beide miteinander erhalten.
Matthäus 9, 17; Markus 2, 22; Lukas 5, 37-38 (NT)

 

Apostel Petrus: Ihr sollt vor allem wissen, dass in den letzten Tagen Spötter kommen werden, die ihren Spott treiben,
ihren eigenen Begierden nachgehen und sagen: Wo bleibt die Verheißung seines Kommens? […] Eins aber sei euch
nicht verborgen, ihr Lieben, dass ein Tag vor dem Herrn wie tausend Jahre ist und tausend Jahre wie ein Tag. Der Herr
verzögert nicht die Verheißung, wie es einige für eine Verzögerung halten; sondern er hat Geduld mit euch und will
nicht, dass jemand verloren werde, sondern dass jedermann zur Buße finde.
2. Petrus 3, 3 und 8-9 (NT)

 

Persönliche Bekenntnisse

  • Ich halte eine globale Energiewende und eine flächendeckende Nutzung erneuerbarer Energien für unabdingbar. Ich möchte die Prognose wagen, dass dadurch auch die Welt demokratischer, gerechter und friedlicher werden könnte.
    Mohssen Massarrat (*1942) iranisch-deutscher emeritierter Professor für Politik und Wirtschaft, Forschungsschwerpunkte Mittlerer und Naher Osten, Energie, Friedens- und Konfliktforschung, Fachbereich Sozialwissenschaften, Universität Osnabrück, zitiert in:
    Artikel "Welt finanziert die US-Kriege mit", präsentiert von der überregionalen deutschen Abonnement-Tageszeitung Frankfurter Rundschau (FR), 7. Oktober 2014

 

Aufruf

  • Wir sind für diese Zeiten erschaffen worden. Ich habe von vielen Menschen gehört, die zutiefst und zu Recht bestürzt sind. Sie sind besorgt über den derzeitiigen Zustand unserer Welt. Wir leben in einer Zeit, die uns fast täglich befrem-
    det und rechtschaffen zornig werden lässt angesichts der jüngsten Entwertungen dessen, was zivilisierten, visionären
    Mitbürgern am Herzen liegt.
    In beschwerten Zeiten besteht die Versuchung, sich ohnmächtig zu fühlen angesichts der unrechtmäßigen Beschaffen-
    heit oder der unhaltbaren Umstände in der Welt. Lasse dich nicht davon überwältigen. Manche neigen dazu, sich zu schwächen, indem sie sich mit Dingen beschäftigen, die außerhalb Ihrer Reichweite liegen und noch keinen Bestand hat. Bemühe dich nicht um Dinge, die außerhalb deiner Einflussmöglichkeit liegen. Das hieße, den Wind wehen zu lassen, ohne die Segel gehisst zu haben.
    Wir werden gebraucht. Soviel können wir wissen. Auch wenn wir auf Widerstand stoßen, werden wir umso mehr bedeutenden Seelen begegnen, die uns freudig empfangen und uns lieben und leiten. Und wir werden sie erkennen, sobald sie auftauchen.
    Es ist nicht unsere Aufgabe, die ganze Welt auf einmal in Ordnung zu bringen, sondern uns auszudehnen, um den Ausschnitt der Welt zu heilen, der in unserer Hand liegt. Jede unscheinbare, stille Handlung, die eine Seele tun kann, um einer anderen Seele beizustehen, um einem Bruchstück dieser armen, leidenden Welt zu helfen, stellt eine im-
    mense Hilfe dar. Wir können nicht erfassen, welche Aktionen oder welche Akteure die kritische Masse in eine Rich-
    tung beeinflussen, die ermöglicht, das Gute dauerhaft zu etablieren.
    Um einen dramatischen Wandel herbeizuführen, ist eine Vielzahl von Taten nötig, zu denen unablässig immer weitere gute Taten hinzukommen. Wir wissen, dass nicht alle Erdbewohner benötigt werden, um Gerechtigkeit und Frieden zu bringen, sondern nur eine kleine, entschlossene Gruppe, die nicht bereits beim ersten, zweiten oder hundertsten Sturm aufgibt. Aufruf von Clarissa Pinkola Estes (*1945) US-amerikanische Jungsche Psychoanalytikerin, Posttraumaspezialistin, Dich-
    terin, Schriftstellerin, Letter to a Young Activist in Troubled Times [Brief an einen jungen Aktivisten in schwierigen Zeiten. Verlier nicht den Mut, denn wir wurden für diese Zeit geboren], erstmals veröffentlicht 2001

 

Öffentlicher Appell

Bild
  • Gesellschaftlicher Wandel wird sich erst einstellen, wenn die Menschen über Wirkmacht verfügen. Er erfordert einen neuen Ausdruck von Macht, eine friedsame Form von Macht. Nicht nur mangelnde Empathie lässt Konflikte und Leiden weiterhin bestehen, sondern auch die fehlende Wirkmacht, insbesondere die friedliche [nicht-raubtierhafte] Macht und Zivilcourage. Wir brauchen nicht nur Empathie, um die Welt zu verändern, sondern auch empathische, mitfühlende Menschen mit Heldenmut, die Situationen, wo gelitten wird, thematisie-
    ren und obendrein eine Form von Macht anwenden, die Ver-
    änderung auslöst, indem sie Menschen zur Rechenschaft zieht, ohne selbst missbräuchlich zu agieren. Wir brauchen mehr als nur Empathie, und mehr denn je brauchen wir empfindungsstarke, mitfühlende Einzelne, die Wirkmacht und Zivilcourage entwickeln, um solchen Konfliktherden zu Leibe zu rücken. Andernfalls nehmen lediglich Tyrannen und Soziopathen Machtstellungen ein.

Empfehlung

  • Wir befinden uns in einem freien Fall in die Zukunft. Wir wissen nicht, wohin wir gehen. Die Dinge ändern sich zu schnell. Und wie immer, wenn man durch einen langen Tunnel geht, macht sich Angst breit. Alles was Sie zu tun ha-
    ben, um Ihre Hölle in ein Paradies zu verwandeln, ist, Ihr Fallen in einen Willensakt zu verwandeln.
    Ich meine, dabei handelt es sich um einen sehr interessanten Perspektivenwechsel, und das ist schon alles. Freudvolle Teilnahme an den Sorgen [der Welt], und alles ändert sich. Dr. Joseph Campbell (1904-1987) US-amerikanischer Mythologe, vergleichen-

Voraussetzungen für den Fortbestand der Menschheit

  • Ich bin überzeugt, dass die weitere Existenz des Menschen nunmehr gänzlich von folgenden Faktoren abhängt:
    1. Der intuitiven Weisheit jedes Einzelnen.
    2. Der umfassenden Informiertheit jedes Einzelnen.
    3. Der Integrität des Einzelnen, nur aus eigener, innerlich erahnter und äußerlich begründeter Initiative zu sprechen und zu handeln.
    4. Der 'gemeinsamen Zusammenarbeit des Einzelnen mit anderen, die lediglich durch die individuell bedachten Folgewirkungen angeregt wurde.
    5. Der strikten Weigerung des Einzelnen, sich auf gemeinsamen Aktivität mit anderen einzulassen, die allein durch eine von der Menschenmenge ausgehende Gefühlsduselei, dem bezwingenden Druck der Menge oder
      der Angst geschuldet sind, den von seiner eigenen intellektuellen Überzeugung vorgegebenen Kurs nicht hal-
      ten zu können.
R. Buckminster Fuller (1895-1983) US-amerikanischer Systemtheoretiker, Architekt, Ingenieur, Konstrukteur, Designer, Erfinder, Futurologe, Philosoph, Autor, Critical Path [Entscheidender Pfad], S. 58 und S. 10-11, St. Martin's Press, 1981

 

Prophezeiungen

  • Wenn sich die Welt zerstört, so fängt es an:
    Die Menschen werden zuerst treulos gegen die Heimat, treulos gegen die Vorfahren, treulos gegen das Vaterland.
    Sie werden treulos gegen die guten alten Sitten, gegen den Nächsten, gegen das Weib und gegen das Kind.
    Peter Rosegger (1843-1918) österreichischer Wanderschneider, Autodidakt, Erzähler, Volksschriftsteller, Jakob der Letzte. Eine Waldbauerngeschichte aus unseren Tagen, S. 82-83, Verlag Staackmann, Leipzig 1942, 1994; zitiert in: Aphorismen.de

Deutschland nach der Wiedervereinigung

  • Zuerst kommt ein Wohlstand wie noch nie.
    Dann folgt ein Glaubensabfall wie nie zuvor.
    Darauf eine noch nie da gewesene Sittenverderbnis.
    Alsdann kommt eine große Zahl fremder Leute ins Land.
    Es herrscht eine hohe Inflation. Das Geld verliert mehr und mehr an Wert.
    Bald darauf folgt die Revolution [in Deutschland].

  • Statt das Alte zu bekämpfen, das Neue aufbauen. Die meisten Menschen – 80% – sind, ohne es zu wissen, Men-
    schen, die Opportunisten sind, weil es ungefährlicher ist. Und die werden dann denen folgen, die ihnen ein besseres
    Angebot liefern. Es ist immer so gewesen. Videogespräch mit Kayvan Soufi-Siavash [Ken Jebsen] (*1966) deutscher politi-

Schlussfolgerungen

  • Es ist schwer zu begreifen, wie Zusammenbruch und Erneuerung gleichzeitig geschehen; dennoch trägt der Archetyp der Schöpfung das unerschütterliche Gespür, dass Neuschöpfung und Erneuerung ein grundlegendes und universelles Muster des irdischen Lebens sind.
    Artikel von Michael Meade (*1944) US-amerikanischer Geschichtenerzähler, Mythologe, Ritualist, Männerbeweger, Autor, A Time
    of Transformation on Earth
    [Die Zeit der Übergangs auf Erden], präsentiert von der Webseite Mosaic Voices, 27. Februar 2021

 

  • In der heutigen Zeit zu leben, bedeutet, in der großen Entflechtung zu stecken, die uns mit allen losen Fäden des Schöpfungsgeschehen verquickt. Doch es bedeutet auch, der Offenbarung des neuen Schöpfungsplans und des kommenden Paradigmas nahezustehen. Michael Meade (*1944) US-amerikanischer Geschichtenerzähler, Mythologe, Ritu-
    alist, Männerbeweger, Autor, Why the World Doesn't End. Tales of Renewal in Times of Loss, Greenfire Press, 30. Oktober 2012

 

  • Immer mehr Frauen und Männer werden zu Aussteigern, die traditionellen Erfolg gegen Lebensqualität eintauschen. Faith Popcorn (*1947) US-amerikanische Trendforscherin, Autorin von The Popcorn-Reports, zitiert in: Gutzitiert

 

Einsichten

  • Erst wenn die Wahrheit, dass Erneuerung der Kultur nur aus der Erneuerung der Weltanschauung kommen kann, in
    die allgemeine Überzeugung eingeht und ein neues Sehnen nach Weltanschauung einsetzt, kommen wir auf den
    rechten Weg. Albert Schweitzer (1875-1965) deutsch-elsässischer Arzt, evangelischer Theologe, medizinischer Missionar, Kulturphilosoph, Humanist, Organist, Friedensnobelpreisträger, 1952, Autor, Die Ehrfurcht vor dem Leben, S. 68, Verlag
    C.H. Beck, München, 1991, 10. Auflage 9. Oktober 2013

 

  • Wir erleben gegenwärtig einen Paradigmenwechsel in den Naturwissenschaften – vielleicht den größten Wandel dieser Art aller Zeiten. Es ist das erste Mal, dass wir auf ein umfassendes Modell für mystische Erfahrungen gestoßen sind, das noch den zusätzlichen Vorteil besitzt, aus den fortgeschrittensten Ideen zeitgenössischer Physik abgeleitet zu sein. Lawrence Beynam, US-amerikanischer Physiker, 1978, zitiert in: Zitate. Physiker, präsentiert von esse2018.jimdofree.com

 

  • Wir leben in einer Zwischenzeit, der Spanne zwischen zwei Zeitaltern [...] und wir sind weder in dem einen, noch schon in dem anderen.
    John Naisbitt (1929-2021) US-amerikanischer Trendforscher in Europa und China, Autor, zitiert in: Gute Zitate

Bevorstehender Paradigmenwechsel in der Wissenschaft

  • Die Naturwissenschaft steht nicht mehr als Beschauer vor der Natur, sondern erkennt sich selbst als Teil dieses Wechselspiels zwischen Mensch und Natur. Die wissenschaftliche Methode des Aussonderns, Erklärens und Ordnens wird sich der Grenzen bewusst, die ihr dadurch gesetzt sind, dass der Zugriff der Methode ihren Gegenstand verändert und umgestaltet, dass sich die Methode also nicht mehr vom Gegenstand distanzieren kann. Werner Heisenberg (1901-1976) deutscher theoretischer Physiker, Entwickler der Heisenbergschen Unschärferelation, 1927, Physiknobelpreisträger, 1932, Autor, Das Naturbild der heutigen Physik, S. 125, Rowohlt, rororo, 1955, Taschenbuchausgage

Mythos der Hopi-Indianer:

Überliefert von Carl Gustav Jung zum Thema Paradigmenwechsel

  • Die Hopi behaupten, dass sie am Anfang tief unter der Erde, die viele Schichten aufwies, gelebt hätten. Jedesmal, wenn eine solche Schicht übervölkert war, machten die Frauen die Lage durch ihr Benehmen so unerträglich, dass die Männer gezwungen waren, einen Weg in die nächste Schicht hinauf zu finden; die Frauen taten also selbst nichts, aber durch ihr widriges Verhalten zwangen sie die Hopi, in die Welt des Bewusstseins hinaufzusteigen. Dr. Marie-Louise von Franz (1915-1998) Schweizer Philologin, Jungsche Gelehrte, Autorin, Das Weibliche im Märchen. Psychologisch gesehen, Nr. 32, S. 81, Bonz Adolf, 1977, 12. Auflage Januar 1999

 

  • Folge der Entdeckung der Quantenmechanik war eine drastische Änderung des physikalischen Weltbildes – vielleicht der größten, die je stattfand. Diese Veränderung hängt damit zusammen dass wir weitgehend unsere determi-
    nistischen Vorstellungen aufgeben
    mussten, die wir immer für erwiesen gehalten hatten. Paul Adrien Maurice Dirac (1902-1984) britischer Physiker, Mitbegründer der Quantenphysik, Nobelpreisträger, 1933, Quelle unbekannt

Kapitalismus im Übergang – die Grenzen des kapitalistischen Systems

Siehe Politik

  • Alle Systeme haben eine begrenzte Lebensdauer. [...] Wenn man nun das kapi-
    talistische System als ein besonderes historisches soziales System betrachtet, dann kann man ersehen, dass es gewisse Ereignisse gegeben hat, die es zu einem Punkt gebracht haben, an dem es nun weit vom Gleichgewicht entfernt ist. Der Kapitalismus ist ein System, das die endlose Anhäufung von Kapital anstrebt. [...] Im Bestreben, Kapital zu akkumulieren, müssen Firmen gegründet werden, die Profit erzielen und damit Kapital anhäufen. Betrachtet man die Kosten des Kapitalisten, dann gibt es drei wesentliche Kostenfaktoren:
    1. die Personalkosten [...],
    2. die Kosten für den Input an Material / Ressourcen und Energie, usw. [...]
    3. die Besteuerung in all ihren Formen – eine Erscheinung, die im gesamten System die Norm ist.
Wenn man nun die Geschichte dieser drei Faktoren: Personal, Input und Steuer historisch betrachtet, dann zeigt sich, dass die Kosten dafür in den letzten 500 Jahren beständig anstiegen. Gleichzeitig bemerkt man, dass es eine Grenze dafür gibt, wie stark die Preise steigen können. Diese Grenze ist die Bereitwilligkeit der Menschen, Güter zu kaufen.
Es gibt also in den letzten 500 Jahren ein Ansteigen der Kosten bis zum Erreichen von [...] Asymptoten.
Kommt das System an die Spitze, beginnt das System zu 'schwingen' und es entstehen enorme Verschiebungen. Dies ist eine 'chaotische' Situation und dort befinden wir uns gerade. Videointerview mit Immanuel Wallerstein (1930-2019)

  • Kein Land der Welt ist vorbereitet auf das, was kommt. Nichts wird so bleiben, wie es war. In den meisten europä-
    ischen Ländern werden circa 50  Prozent der heutigen Arbeitsplätze verloren gehen.
    Diversität schlägt die beste Lösung. [Die Summe der Ideen vieler ist besser als der klügste Mensch, selbst wenn die-
    ser Supercomputer nutzt.] Wir müssen [über die neuen Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien] möglichst
    viele gute Ideen mit an Bord nehmen, damit wir klügere Entscheidungen treffen können.
    Das Internet der Dinge und die damit verknüpften Echtzeitinformationen ermöglichen es jetzt, das Prinzip der Selbstor-
    ganisation auch in der Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft nutzbringend einzusetzen, trotz aller Komplexität. Denn aus mathe-
    matischer Sicht sind die Probleme vergleichbar. Europa befand sich bisher im digitalen Dornröschenschlaf. Wir stehen heute an einem Scheideweg. Wenn uns das gelingt, schreiten wir in ein lichtes, ein besseres Zeitalter, in dem wir einige der Probleme lösen können, die unsere Gesellschaft heute noch plagen.

Auflösung des verkehrten Wesens
Wenn nicht mehr Zahlen und Figuren
Sind Schlüssel aller Kreaturen
Wenn die, so singen oder küssen,
Mehr als die Tiefgelehrten wissen,
Wenn sich die Welt ins freye Leben
Und in die Welt wird zurück begeben,
Wenn dann sich wieder Licht und Schatten
Zu ächter Klarheit werden gatten,
Und man in Mährchen und Gedichten
Erkennt die wahren Weltgeschichten,
Dann fliegt vor einem geheimen Wort
Das ganze verkehrte Wesen fort.

Conclusive encouragement

  • Since the publications of Confessions in 2004 I've been on an almost constant global speaking tour. All over the world I find that people are waking up to the fact that the corporatocracy has created a global economic failure. One important statistic: 5% of the world's population lives in the United States and consumes nearly 30% of the world's resources while half the world lives in poverty. That's not a model. It can't be repeated by China, India, Brazil, or anywhere else
    no matter how hard they try. And all over the planet we are coming to this realization. This is the greatest revolution in history, a Consciousness Revolution. For the first time in human history we have the technologies to communicate with each other instantaneously and people in all these heterogeneous cultures are reaching the understanding that we have to change, we have to move from a Death to a Life Economy – from one based on militarization and ravaging the earth to one based on cleaning up pollution, helping starving people feed themselves, and creating new technologies for energy, transportation, communications, banking, and just about every other system that reflects the old ways.
    When all these heterogeneous cultures understand that (and they are well on their way) we will have the empathy
    that you ask about. I encourage you and all your friends to keep spreading the word.

Appeals

  • We were made for these times. I have heard from so many recently who are deeply and properly bewildered. They are concerned about the state of affairs in our world now. Ours is a time of almost daily astonishment and often righteous rage over the latest degradations of what matters most to civilized, visionary people.
    In any dark time, there is a tendency to veer toward fainting over how much is wrong or unmended in the world. Do not focus on that. There is a tendency, too, to fall into being weakened by dwelling on what is outside your reach, by what cannot yet be. Do not focus there. That is spending the wind without raising the sails.
    We are needed, that is all we can know. And though we meet resistance, we more so will meet great souls who will hail us, love us and guide us, and we will know them when they appear.
    Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world all at once, but of stretching out to mend the part of the world that is within our reach. Any small, calm thing that one soul can do to help another soul, to assist some portion of this poor suffering world, will help immensely. It is not given to us to know which acts or by whom, will cause the critical mass to tip toward an enduring good.
    What is needed for dramatic change is an accumulation of acts, adding, adding to, adding more, continuing. We know that it does not take everyone on Earth to bring justice and peace, but only a small, determined group who will not give up during the first, second, or hundredth gale.

Creative genius and madness will "make it" for humanity when "break it" is an option.

Myss' insight after having returned home from a trip to the south of Germany and Austria

  • As I listened to several people share their version of that archetypal "death and rebirth" journey, I realized that this is our time to contribute to the story of humanity. And we can either fear this time or become participants in the power and creative vibrancy of this moment in history. When I look at people in my workshops, I think,
    ♦ You need to realize – to believe – that you were born for this moment.
    You are built for the emotional, psychological, spiritual and psychic obstacle courses that we are facing now. Every inner challenge you have confronted has been in preparation for facing, enduring, and outwitting the outrageous challenges of your life.
    ♦ You need to trust not just your creative genius but your creative madness.
    ♦ You need to be creatively bold, not quiet; spiritually fierce, not shy.
    ♦ And you need to learn to pray like you are crazy, as if Divine intervention was as ordinary as birdsong in the morning.
    ♦ Wrap yourself up in a prayer full of grace. Breathe it in. And just let grace work its wonders.
Caroline Myss (*1952) US American spiritual teacher, mystic, medical intuitive, bestselling author, Newsletter, 12. June 2017

 

  • These times require people who are: Helping, generous, caring, nourishing, healing, cobbling-things-together,
    learning, humble, intelligent, strong, improvisational, vulnerable, savvy, systems oriented, understanding, friendly,
    curious [...] and pissed off at anyone's willingness to put their havingness above other people's survival.

Requirements for human continuance

  • I am convinced that human continuance now depends entirely upon:
    1. The intuitive wisdom of each and every individual.
    2. The individual's comprehensive informedness.
    3. The individual's integrity of speaking and acting only on the individual's own within-self-intuited and reasoned initiative.
    4. The individual's joining action with others, as motivated only by the individually conceived consequences of
      so doing.
    5. The individual's never-joining action with others, as motivated only by crowd-engendered emotionalism, or
      by a sense of the crowd's power to overwhelm, or in fear of holding to the course indicated by
      one's own intellectual convictions.

  • Over the last 15, perhaps 20 years we've been on a much more positive timeline. [There’ve three big changes (railroad jumps).] We are now on a very positive timeline which we can't be taken off from.
    The negative forces are saying, 'how can we make the best of it from our perspective.'
    We’ve got another 2.5 years of very difficult times. We’ve another 2.5 years of terrorist attacks, 2.5 years of countries suffering huge ecoconimc issues.
    And then at the end of the years there will be a substantial change in the way that people think, in the way they value and in the way they question.
    If you go onto your broad walk you’ll find everyone's disillusioned with their governments. But that's as far as it goes, nobody wants to push it any further.
    I don't want armed battles. I want people to actually realize that they’ve been tricked. Nearly every step of the way they’ve been given false information.
    In 2.5 years' time a veil will be lifted. It’s very hard to describe. It's not a physical thing, but people will just know the truth and they will start rejecting what’s on off there. [United non-violent protests to known injustices] is the power people have, and the system does not want the viewers, the listeners to realize the power they really have. As long as the people still just keep paying the bills, doing what they do, why would the system change. I would say 2.5 years – and we will see some very interesting changes.

  • I actually think of Donald Trump as a Mr. Ronald Reagan on steroids. He will do things, enact into law that no other president would dream of doing. On the timeline I'm looking, as it stands in the moment, Mr. Trump will be your next president. It depends on the FBI [...] to decide whether they are going to arrest Hillary Clinton. [...] Nevermind justice, this is all about deals behind doors. I can honestly tell you and the listeners that the dossier [of HRC] is on the desk of the head of the FBI [Comey] and that keeps being put into the 3rd drawer down on the right of this person’s desk. And it comes out again, sits on the top, the person thumbs the pages and thinks "Oh goodness, what am I gonna do with this", and it goes back down again. But the time is ticking and a decision has to be made.

  • If you do the research you will find that Hillary Clinton's #1 bodyguard who was a Navy Seal died. And the official news is that he died in his training camp. He didn't. He was shot dead by other bodyguards because he trying to shoot Hillary Clinton. This goes back 2 or 3 years ago when Hillary Clinton was on a special mission to Iran to meet the president of Iran. And the head of the Seal bodyguard had seen Hillary change [shapeshift] into something which he didn't like and decided that this was something not of this planet and shot her. It was reported in the news that she had an accident, either in the Senate or the Congress. She fell on her head, and she was off. It was actually a gun shot from a Heckler and Koch 9mm or 7.2 mm weapon. He had seen the overlay [in HRC] change. [...].

Paradigm shift

  • What we have now is a world that's built on the illusion that we are reasonable. What we've reached is the end of the age of reason. What we have now is a world where our crisis cannot be reasoned with. There is not one thing [in this world] that can be solved with reason. We do not have problems, we have predicaments. Problems have solutions, predicaments don't.
Galileo
Portrait of Galileo Galilei, 1636
Justus Sustermans (1597–1681) Flemish painter
We are in a field of predicaments that will take us to a different level of response. They cause us to respond to them. […] What we will discover through these predicaments is the folly of our arrogance, the [arrogance of the] belief that money can solve problems. And so the financial system is collapsing.
We will discover that all the problems that are going into the predicaments that are bringing us to our knees cannot be resolved by any of the old systems. Why? Because we are coming to end of the finite world, the fossil era, the end of that finite form of consciousness that says everything can be controlled and reasoned with. […] There is a quantum world that has moved the solar world, that world of mystical consciousness that is emerging simultaneously as if to replace it at the same time.

Emergence of the Ultrahuman

  • Everywhere on Earth, at this moment, in the 'new' spiritual atmosphere created by evolution, there float, in a state of extreme sensitivity, love of God and faith in the world: the two essential components of the Ultrahuman. These two components are everywhere in the air. Sooner or later there will be a chain-reaction. The New human-type will be found scattered more or less over the thinking face of the globe. Some apparent attraction draws these scattered elements together and causes them to unite among themselves. [...] They will gravitate instinctively towards one another. They will know one another. No racial, social or religious barrier seems to be effective against this force of attraction.

Outcrops of transition: Violent repression of shame ⇔ self-disparaging shame, angry projections

  • Times of transitions are particularly difficult times. Paradigm shifts are painful. It is painful, for example, to overcome loss aversion or leave behind just world thinking. It is very hard for people who believe themselves to be good people (and that includes just about everybody) to accept that they have harmed themselves and others, even unintentionally. Both shame and humiliation are thorny issues; many choose self-justification instead of admitting to change.34 Cognitive dissonance is one of the causes for discomfort when there is discrepancy between what we know or believe and new information or interpretations. Traditional elites who feel entitled to supremacy resent being labeled oppressors, violently repressing shame when they lose superiority, while underlings are caught between self-disparaging shame and angry projections. Evelin Gerda Lindner, M.D., Ph.D. (*1954) German physician, psychologist, transdisciplinary scholar in social sciences and humanities, human dignity researcher, founding president of Human Dignity and Humiliation Studies (HumanDHS), author, Gender, Humiliation, and Global Security.

  • Interdependence connects two entities, ❍ and ❍, in a nondualistic way, ∞. Dualism, in contrast, means merging them into one entity, ❂, or separating them into two isolated entities, ❍|❍. Dualism means either separation or merging; either agreement or disagreement; either one or two. Nondualism means separation and connection; agreement and disagreement; one and two. For successful pendulation, the right kind of distance is critical, for individuals as much as for society at large. For example, having a wide network of relatively weak social connections provides more individual autonomy than being embedded into one single tightly knit social context that allows only for minimal dissent.

  • Social change is not going to occur until people have power. And it has to be a new form of power, a non-predatory form of power. It's not just a lack of empathy that causes conflicts and suffering to continue it is also a lack of power, particularly non-predatory power and emotional heroism. Not only do we need empathy to change the world, but we need empathetic, compassionate people with emotional heroism to walk into situations where suffering occurs and also show a form of power that effects change and holds people accountable without also becoming abusive. We need more than empathy and more than ever we need sensitive, compassionate individuals to develop the power and emotional heroism to step into these conflicts.

Tunnel
Light at the end of a tunnel
  • Social change occurs through collective action; and collective action occurs when people engage in consciousness raising, skill development, and spiritual transformation. Collective action enables individuals to act together in groups rather than individually. Collective action is needed to change the organizations of power by state institutions, such as mental health services, but collective action depends on individuals participating. Conversely, participation in individual action that transforms experiences of power and the ability to exert power develops the foundation for collective action.

  • Typically we would classify male as Yang and female as Yin. In her 1993 book Uniting Sex, Self and Spirit, Genia Haddon claims that this association is a product of our cultural gender biases, and not intrinsic masculine or feminine physiology or psychology. […]
    The testicles, lying quiet underneath the penis, represent the masculine Yin. […] The testicles' function of producing, storing and conserving harks to male Yin qualities like patience, steadfastness, supportiveness, solidity, stability, reliability, and resourcefulness. […]
    The feminine Yang is embodied in that other important function of the womb: to give birth. Birth (and menstruation) show us feminine qualities that our culture denigrates or ignores, which Haddon groups under the descriptor "exertive" – literally, "pushing out". These include pushing forward, transformation, bringing forth the new, urging forward, propelling, dissolving the old (as in menstruation), forceful, bearing down, demanding, assertive, active in emergency, acting in concert with natural forces, harnessing the energies of the moment. […]
    We are on the cusp of a civilizational transition greater than the fall of one civilization and the rise of the next, but to a whole different kind of civilization. One way of understanding this shift is that we are moving toward an age in which the masculine Yin and the feminine Yang will be in ascendancy. […]
    The Tower [of Babel], obviously a phallic image, embodies the ambitions and limitations of the phallic program to attain heaven [portraying] the hubris and absurdity of the builders' ambitions. Their project is obviously doomed, no more plausible than the aroused male desire to have sex forever. He can only reach a certain height and then a period of regeneration is needed – you might call it a testicular age. […]
    We are rapidly entering a state of emergency. It is here that the feminine Yang takes over, bearing down and pushing
    us forward according to a spontaneous and irresistible rhythm into a new world. […]
    Just as the feminine Yin has complemented the male Yang for the last few millennia, when the female Yang qualities come to the fore in coming centuries, it will be the masculine Yin that supports and sustains them. Already we begin to perceive the necessity of these testicular qualities of conservation, regeneration, patience, forbearance, and steadfastness. As the collective Female of humanity and the planet bear down in this emergency to birth us into the future, the collective Male will be at hand, calm, steadfast, solid and reassuring. These will be the traits that come to define masculinity, while the phallic traits will retreat for a while to a lesser role.

Minorities dare to peek behind the scenes.

  • Those who are able to see beyond the shadows and lies of their culture will never be understood, let alone believed, by the masses.

  • The Millionth Circle depends upon a simple hypothesis, whose mechanism has already been proposed and observed, and is one that can be intuitively and immediately grasped: when a critical number of people change how they think and behave, the culture will also, and a new era begins. Once the principles are understood, the significance of women's circles can be appreciated as a revolutionary-evolutionary movement that is hidden in plain sight.

Civilizations at crossroads

  • There lies before us, if we choose, continual progress in happiness, knowledge and wisdom. Shall we, instead, choose death, because we cannot forget our quarrels? We appeal as human beings, to human beings: remember your humanity, and forget the rest. If you can do so, the way lies open to a new Paradise: if you cannot, there lies before you the risk of universal death.

Social commons

Three internet pillars: communication, energy, and transportation

  • There's an institution in our life that we all rely on every day that provides all sorts of goods and services that have nothing to do with profit or government entitlement and without it we couldn’t live and that's the social commons. There's millions of organisations that provide healthcare, education, ministering to the poor, culture, arts, sports, recreation, and it goes on and on.
    This isn't considered by economists because it creates social capital which is essential to all three of the internets [the three pillars of communication, energy, and transportation], but doesn't create market capital. But as a revenue producer, it's huge and what's interesting is it's growing faster than the GDP in the private market system. Jeremy Rifkin (*1945) US American economist, political advisor and activist, founder and president of the Foundation On Economic Trends, public speaker, author, cited in: Article Radical new economic system will emerge from collapse of capitalism, presented by the British daily newspaper The Guardian, Jo Cofino, 7.

Transitioning eras

  • Today, many things indicate that we are going through a transitional period, when it seems that something is on the way out and something else is painfully being born. It is as if something were crumbling, decaying and exhausting itself, while something else, still indistinct, were arising from the rubble. Speech by Vaclav Havel (1936-2011) Czech dissident, first postcommunist President of the Czech Republic (1993-2003) and during the Velvet Revolution (1989-1992), poet, playwright, essayist, Independence Hall, Philadelphia, United States of America, 4. July 1994

  • Without a global revolution in the sphere of human consciousness, nothing will change for the better in the sphere of our Being as humans, and the catastrophe toward which this world is headed, whether it be ecological, social, demographic or a general breakdown of civilization, will be unavoidable. If we are no longer threatened by world war or by the danger that the absurd mountains of accumulated nuclear weapons might blow up the world, this does not mean that we have definitively won. We are in fact far from definite victory. Vaclav Havel (1936-2011) Czech dissident, first postcommunist President of the Czech Republic (1993-2003) and during the Velvet Revolution (1989-1992), poet, playwright, essayist, A Joint Session of the U.S. Congress, Washington, D.C., United States of America, 21.

  • The world cannot just be explained, it must be grasped and understood as well. It is not enough to impose one's own words on it, but one must also listen to the polyphony of often contradictory messages the world sends out and try to penetrate their meaning. It is not enough to describe, in scientific terms, the mechanics of things and events; their spirit must be personally perceived and experienced. [One] cannot merely follow the timetable we have set for our influence upon the world; we must also honor and respect the infinitely more complex timetable the world has set for itself. That timetable is the sum of the thousands of independent timetables of an infinite number of natural, historical and human actions.

Universal peace may emerge suddenly – like crystals.

  • Universal Peace, assuming it to be in the fullest sense realizable, might not require eons for its accomplishment, however probable this may appear, judging from the imperceptibly slow growth of all great reformatory ideas of the past. [...] Our accepted estimates of the duration of natural metamorphoses, or changes in general, have been thrown in doubt of late. The very foundations of science have been shaken.
    A state of human life vaguely defined by the term "Universal Peace," while a result of cumulative effort through centuries past, might come into existence quickly, not unlike a crystal suddenly forms in a solution which has been slowly prepared. […] There are abundant signs of this progress everywhere. The race enmities and prejudices are decidedly waning.
    We begin to think cosmically. Our sympathetic feelers reach out into the dim distance. The bacteria of the "Weltschmerz," are upon us.

C-Phase
Liquid crystal's focal-conical smectic c-phase
  • At the mythic level ends and beginnings are essentially connected and one keeps leading to the other as the eternal drama of life continues to unfold. When the end seems near and everything spins faster and faster, some-
    thing old and lasting, something deep and meaningful is trying to catch up to us. Something subtle and enduring about the world is trying to be remembered and be redis-
    covered; and, it seems to take some big trouble to awaken to it. The overwhelming problems and massive threats are real enough, but they also function as a cosmic wake-up call intended to awaken us from the sleep of so-called "reality".

  • The term paradigm shift was first proposed by the philosopher and physicist Thomas Kuhn in 1962. Kuhn used the term to describe how progress occurs during a period of crisis that is resolved by a revolutionary change during which an old paradigm or pattern becomes replaced by a newer, better one. This new theory shifted the philosophy of
    science and changed the way scientists think about their work. […]
    What is difficult is to see is how collapse and renewal happen simultaneously; yet the archetype of creation carries the undaunted sense that re-creation and renewal is a fundamental and universal pattern of life on earth.

  • In the course of history, there comes a time when humanity is called to shift to a new level of consciousness, to reach
    a higher moral ground. A time when we have to shed our fear and give hope to each other. That time is now.

  • To live in an evolutionary spirit means to engage with full ambition and without any reserve in the structure of the present, and yet to let go and flow into a new structure when the right time has come. Such an attitude is meant by the Buddhist virtue of "non-attachment" which is so frequently confused with non-engagement. Once we open our mind and fully respond to environmental changes, the profound plasticity of our human systems begins to work.

  • Breaking through self-reference by embracing a destabilizing fluctuation or an error leading to a new structure, is already an act of self-transcendence in ontogeny.

  • The implications of this new understanding of cooperation are profound. Previously, there were only
    two basic principles of evolution – mutation and selection –
    where the former generates genetic diversity and the latter picks the individuals that are best suited to a given environment.
For us to understand the creative aspects of evolution, we now must accept that
cooperation is the third principle.
For selection you need mutation and, in the same way, for cooperation you need both selection and mutation.
From cooperation can emerge the constructive side of evolution, from genes to organisms to language and complex social behaviors. Cooperation is the master architect of evolution.

Four stages of a system's growth and decline:

  • Such growth [since 2008] is [...] a "debt fueled mirage". It [the Geological Survey of Finland study on the 2008 financial crash] warns that within the next five to ten years these dynamics would come to a head, generating a new energy-linked financial crash. [...] [The] global industrial civilization is in the last stage of its systemic life cycle, as defined by ecologist C. S. Holling's four stages of a system’s growth and decline.
    1. The first stage was growth, which took place rapidly over perhaps 200 years or so from the nineteenth century until the late twentieth century.
    2. It then went through the second stage of conservation which appeared to stabilize between 1970 and the early 2000s.
    3. The third stage, the release phase, appears to have begun around then and escalated to this day.
      This is a period of uncertainty and chaos as the system begins to decline. During this stage, the uncertainty opens up new possibilities for change, where small perturbations in the system can have deep impacts in a way they could not do during the first and second phases.
    4. This is the crucial global "phase shift" point where our actions can determine the fourth stage of reorganization. In this stage, the foundations of new system can be forged, paving the way for the emergence of a new life cycle.

Book review on The Power of Pull:

We are shifting from a world where the key source of strategic advantage was in protecting and extracting value from a given set of knowledge stocks – the sum total of what we know at any point in time, which is now depreciating at an accelerating pace – into a world in which the focus of value creation is effective participation in knowledge flows, which are constantly being renewed.

      Visionary trend researcher of the economy and paradigms John Hagel III presented six provocative findings:

    1. Western management practices in institutions (education, military, church, government, businesses) are
        fundamentally broken.
        US companies are running faster and faster and are falling farther and farther behind. (See Red Queen effect.)
          Longterm The Shift Index. Uncovering the Emerging Logic of Deep Change: In the time period 1965-2010 the return on assets (ROA) with ALL US companies has declined by 75%.
          The constant trend is sustained erosion in profitability.

    2. Competition has doubled (1965-2010). It accounts only partially for the failure of Western management.
        Knowledge stocks (protecting what one knows) are becoming less and less relevant whereas diverse
        inter-firm knowledge flows are rising in relevance.
    3. The solution is (right-brained) innovation.
        The international center of innovation is shifting away from the United States to Asia (India and China).
    4. The collaboration curve is supplanting the experience curve (measuring profitability).
    5. Companies chasing and acquiring gifted staff members and let them go waste. [See "Dilbert Paradox" and talent war]
        Talented people need to be developed and supported within the workplace arena.
    6. Unpredictable passion for one's work (vocation) prevents burnout from mounting pressure and holds
        the key to longterm success.

Tipping point – Malcolm Gladwell

The Canadian historian and sociologist Malcolm Gladwell points out that very small changes in any or several of the context
can tip over reality. When the impact, the quality ('stickiness') of an idea sparks a very small group of key people
it can trigger a dramatic epidemic of change in society.

Transformation
  • In a given process or system some people matter more than others. S. 19

 

  • The success of any kind of social epidemic is heavily dependent on the involvement of people with a particular and rare set of social gifts. S. 33

 

  • Sprinkled among every walk of life [...] are a handful of people with a truly extraordinary knack of making friends and acquaintances. They are Connectors. S. 41
  • I always keep up with people. (quoting a "Connector"). S. 44
  • In the case of Connectors, their ability to span many different worlds is a function of something intrinsic to their personality, some combination of curiosity, self-confidence, sociability, and energy.
    S. 49
  • The point about Connectors is that by having a foot in so many different worlds they have the effect of bringing them all together. S. 51

 

  • The word Maven comes from the Yiddish, and it means one who accumulates knowledge. S. 60
  • The fact that Mavens want to help, for no other reason than because they like to help, turns out to be an awfully effective way of getting someone's attention. S. 67
  • The one thing that a Maven is not is a persuader. To be a Maven is to be a teacher. But it is also, even more emphatically to be a student. S. 69

 

  • There is also a select group of people – Salesmen – with the skills to persuade us when we are unconvinced of what we are hearing. S. 70
  • [Tom Gau, a Salesman] seems to have some indefinable trait, something powerful and contagious and irresistible that goes beyond what comes out of his mouth, that makes people who meet him want to agree with him. It's energy. It's enthusiasm. It's charm. It's likability. It's all those things and yet something more. S. 73

 

Gathering empirical quality ('sticky') data about ideas (theory or assumption can be debunked)

  • Kids don't watch when they are stimulated and look away when they are bored. They watch when they understand and look away when they are confused. S. 102
  • Children actually don't like commercials as much as we thought they did. S. 118
  • The driving force for a preschooler is not a search for novelty, like it is with older kids, it's a search for understanding and predictability. S. 126

The Hutterites, Amish or Mennonites have a rule that when a colony approaches 150, they split into two and start a new one.
The Military generally split companies at size 150-200.
The company Gore (Goretex) obeys a staff rule: ~150 employees per plant.

  • At a bigger size you have to impose complicated hierarchies and rules and regulations and formal measures to try to command loyalty and cohesion. But below 150 [...] it is possible to achieve the same goals informally. S. 180
  • When things get larger than that, people become strangers to one another. S. 181
  • Crossing the 150 line is a small change that can make a big difference. S. 183

Predictability ⇔ novelty
The rule of 15011 – the ability to handle the complexities of social groups.

Gladwell defines a tipping point as the moment of critical mass, the threshold, explaining three rules (agents of change) of epidemics
in the tipping points of epidemics:
1. Messenger – WHOLaw of the few multiplicating key people (connectors ◊ mavens ◊ salespeople) ❄
2. Message – WHAT – Stickyness/impact factor
3. Messageability – HOW – Power of context/preparedness (disappointment ◊ enthusiasm ◊ disillusionment ◊ recommendation)

Ecological and social divides

Struggling with the problematic notion of "commodities"

 

  • If everything is a commodity, then I can take it, sell it, use it, dump it, and buy another one. And this is exactly what happens. The ecological divide (overshoot), the social divide (depression) emerge directly from the model of economic thought that frames the earth, human beings, and money as commodities. But the earth is not a commoditiy, and human beings aren't either.

The old woman in the cave and the black dog unraveling the woven garment

Stricken
A woman in the process of knitting

               A Native American tale              

 

In a hidden cave an old woman is weaving a garment up to the trim. Bitten and chewed on porcupine quills are to hold the hem. She removes into the back of the cave to the ever burning fire to stir the seeds of life in the cauldron above the fire.

 

Meanwhile the black dog in the cave unravels the entire garment which was the result of the work of eons.
Upon her return the old woman finds the chaos. She stands there for a mo-
ment and picks up the weaving of the garment again. [...]
Be thankful for the black dog. If something (i.e. the world) would be perfec-
t(ed)
it is dead. The world would be over once it is perfected.

 

The beautiful new design had become necessary because the black dog
had unraveled both nature and culture.
The old woman knew enough to begin weaving culture and nature, to com-
bine imagination and hard work again so that both are less opposing and
less destructive.

 

We are living in the black dog times,[*] in the times of unraveling – and we can choose to weave the loose threads again – back into the world. We are invited to reweave ourselves and the world – by the wise one in us.

Obituary of the late Common Sense

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:

⚑ Knowing when to come in out of the rain;
⚑ Why the early bird gets the worm;
⚑ Life isn't always fair;
⚑ And maybe it was my fault.

 

Senior
  • Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).
    His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old
    boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened
    his condition.
  • Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children.
    It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.
  • Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims.
  • Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.
  • Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She
    spilled a little in her lap, launched a lawsuit and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

 

Common Sense was preceded in death,

⚑ by his parents, Truth and Trust,
⚑ by his wife, Discretion,
⚑ by his daughter, Responsibility,
⚑ and by his son, Reason.

 

He is survived by his 5 stepbrothers:

⚑ I Know My Rights,
⚑ I Want It Now,
⚑ Someone Else Is To Blame,
⚑ I'm A Victim,
⚑ Pay me for Doing Nothing.

 

Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone.

Source: ► Gloss An Obituary printed in the London Times, presented by the portal clubrunner.ca, 10. August 2008

 

Common sense is seeing things as they are; and doing things as they ought to be.
Anonymous, also attributed to Josh Billings, Thomas Chandler Haliburton, Calvin Ellis Stowe, Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896)

Life prayer

           Life Prayer           

We look with uncertainty
Beyond the old choices for
Clear-cut answers
To softer, more permeable aliveness
Which is every moment
At the brink of death;
Something new is being born in us
If we but let it.
We stand in a new doorway,
Awaiting that which comes…
Daring to be human creatures.
Vulnerable to the beauty of existence.
Learning to love.
