See keynotes with Richard BowellChange is an integral part of being a human. We age, we have new experiences that we try to assimilate into a meaningful pattern, life experiences challenges us to discover new parts of ourselves but we are living in a time of change when we cannot continue as we do as humans – it is not sutainable.
It is a unique moment in time where we humans, together, are being challenged to look at our evolutionary history that has brought us to this point and reconsider all that has gone before in the light of a new world unfolding.
Consumption and resources, daily life considerations of health and success, complex societal issues, across the whole spectrum of living a new upgrade needs to take place, an ‘Essential Shift’ to be able to first of all SEE the vision of something different inside the challenge of living.
The Essential Shift shows that SEEING has been the central engine for growth throughout evolution from our early awareness of the world around us to our increasing ability to perceive the reasons and processes behind life and all living organisms (the scientific revolution) to the point now where we are beginning to become CONSCIOUS (the highest level of integral SEEING) of our part in an interconnected whole.
The experience of this shift is literally mind altering for many. This is not a talk ‘about’ change but a living experience of change and coming to SEE that the significant challenges we face are more often than not a matter of where we stand, the vantage point and level of our emerging consciousness of ourselves within the fabric of life.
The accompanying best selling United Nations book ‘An Urgent Plea from the Future’ by Richard Bowell is the reference for this talk.
We are individuals – together. It is a step in our individual and collective evolution that we have not mastered but stands before us.
From our evolutionary past we are conditioned to look at life from a need to project ourselves into it and likewise with challenges we constantly engage from the standpoint that we need to ‘fix’ or ‘make’ a better world or a more sustainable world. Even the worlds’ sustainable development goals are framed in terms of ‘overcoming’ hunger and poverty and ‘fixing’ climate change – when it is this tendency to enforce and coerce life ‘out there’ that is at root what has caused the challenges we now face ‘in here, in ourselves’.
This introduction to consciousness is vital for every person living on the planet (and is part of the Conscious Global Citizens Program) and shows in a gentle way that ‘Hey, you might be looking at what is wrong and missing what is trying to unfold right here’. While we seek the future the future seeks to unfold in us and it is this way of interconnection that allows the consciousness of ourselves as part of the whole to emerge.
When we individually and collectively SEE the same future no one needs to be coerced into deeply responding. Whether in a family, in an organization or on the planet living as individuals together, this presentation introduce the program of becoming a couscous global citizen – now the consequence of a 12 year sojourn on a greek island –
Tired of talk, talk, talk? Struggle to SEE…WHAT IS RIGHT form which stems service and cosncous contribution and resist arguing about how to make right out of wrong’.
This presentation opens up minds to a new evolutionary phase of integral and conscious living as a harmony between oneself and the planet and has direct insight into the globla challenges we face and the rapid transformation that can take place in addresing those chlallenges as whole people – when time is so clearly running out.
