Life in the Age of Shifting Paradigms

How we see the world has a powerful effect on how we feel and behave towards others. If we see a world at war – a world of competition and battle – we respond to situations that way, defensively and aggressively, seeking to exert control and dominate. When we see a world where everything is connected our hearts open more easily, so that we respond more creatively, compassionately and generously.

The challenge for humanity now is to transform and transcend our fractured views, our defensive and competitive “ego-logical” ways of thinking. Once we do that, we’ll be better able to care for nature, support people who are suffering and redesign our more destructive social values and institutions.

Over time, we’ll hopefully find many of our problems falling away, being solved, or dissolving quite naturally. Like a fevered mind awakening from delusions, the health of our planet and communities can be restored once enough of us open our hearts, shift our values and transcend overly dualistic ways of thinking.
