Rising Water And Rising New Civilation

I do believe the recent crisis of "Hurricane Sandy" has helped contribute to a "New Civilization". Oh, it is small and not "making headlines", but I am hearing little conversations arising from a higher consciousness. I live in the town of Westerly, Rhode Island, USA.

Peace Between The Human And Non-human Kingdoms

The approach of the spirit of peace is bringing about a new scientific knowledge about animals and the way they think and feel. This will cause humans to think seriously about the way in which animals are kept and slaughtered.

Embracing The Subtle Realm To Release The Integral Model From Physical Biases And To Develop Scientific Relevance, Greater Empathy And Kosmic Inclusion

If we embrace how Life in the Subtle Realm affects our physical structures we may develop a more complete Integral culture. Perhaps the origins of “autopoiesis” (the intelligent subjectivity in exteriorities) lie in the interpenetration of the subjective and objective quadrants, something which is possible due to their connections in the Subtle Realm. While quadrants arise as…
