We Don’t Need No Education
To have a Quantum Revolution occur - essentially a revolution in consciousness, in thinking capabilities - what is required is more enlightened thinking by as many people as many. Yet, our education system, which is where the great majority of all of us develop our thinking and learning capabilities, is not creating or cultivating enlightened thinking. Instead the education system is developing a nation of people with the skills to work at … [Read more...]
2012 and the Effects of Climate Change
The news is in, and it is telling: 2012 was the warmest year on record in the lower 48 states of the U.S. This is big news, and a clear sign that our world is continuing to experience the effects of climate change/global warming. Back in Oct., we featured an article about the work of Bill McKibben, one of the country's leading advocates for doing something about climate change, and we showed a video clip with Bill McKibben talking with Bill … [Read more...]
Quote of the Day: 1/7/13 – Gurdjieff
The evolution of man is the evolution of consciousness and "consciousness" cannot evolve unconsciously. The evolution of man is the evolution of his will, and "will" cannot evolve involuntarily. The evolution of man is the evolution of his power of doing, and "doing" cannot be the result of things which "happen." - Gurdjieff … [Read more...]
Quote of the Day: 1/3/13 – Thomas Berry
"We find ourselves ethically destitute just when, for the first time, we are faced with ultimacy, the irreversible closing down of the earth's functioning in its major life systems. Our ethical traditions know how to deal with suicide, homicide, and even genocide; but these traditions collapse entirely when confronted with biocide, the extinction of the vulnerable life systems of the Earth, and geocide, the devastation of the Earth itself...The … [Read more...]
20 Years Ago Nirvana Burst Out and Galvanized the Country!
A little over 20 years ago, the rock band Nirvana burst on the scene and created a revolution in culture. Their introduction to the cultural zeitgeist was by way of their music video “Smells like Teen Spirit." Above, you can see a look at the first live performance of “Teen Spirit." The video’s a little grainy and low-res, which suits the song just fine. The official music video for the song debuted on the MTV alternative rock show “120 … [Read more...]
Newtown, the End of the World, and the Beginning of a New World
Watch the above video, Dream...Believe...Love: The Quantum Revolution. We can change the world - if we want to. Dec. 21, 2012 is supposedly the end of the world. Or the end of the Mayan calendar. Or both. Dec. 14, 2012, the week before, seemed like the end of the world. That was the day of the horrific and unspeakable violence in Newtown, Connecticut. What have we come to that such a despicable act could occur? Is this truly the end of the … [Read more...]
Quote of the Day: 12/20/12 – Martin Luther King, Jr.
"The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it. Through violence you may murder the liar, but you cannot murder the lie, nor establish the truth. Through violence you may murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate. So it goes. ... Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper … [Read more...]
When Hate, Bile and Intolerance Becomes a Way of Life
When you think more inclusively and more holistically, whether you are a Christian, Muslim, Jew, Buddhist, Hindu, etc., or an atheist, you learn to love and appreciate your fellow human being, and to be more tolerant and less judgmental of who and what they are. After all, isn't the concept of God about all-encompassing love? Isn't it about love for your brethren, love for those different than you, love for strangers, love for all life - whether … [Read more...]
What’s Consciousness Got to Do With It? Everything
A revolution in consciousness, in thinking capabilities, is what is vital to the future. The spiritual teacher Sadhguru says it so eloquently and simply in the short video above. It's well worth the watch. We as a species are becoming more technologically adept, more globally connected, more socially and culturally aware, and more complex beings, yet at the same time our humanity and wisdom is not keeping pace. This is the point of a Quantum … [Read more...]
