This is a mind-heart opening piece. How can we evolve from discussion to dialogue to generate understanding that flows into wise, compassionate action, which in turn flows into understanding at the level of our collective soul? It’s hard to find words that are expansive enough to express this vision that is both ancient and coming into being. This piece brings to mind Tom Atlee’s work on wise democracy (How can we evoke and engage the wisdom and resourcefulness of the whole in service of the whole?). It brings to mind work on systems, soul, and society from Perspectiva. It brings to mind Charles Eisenstein's work on the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible. It brings to mind Krista’s Tippet’s On Being (a communal conversation on what it means to be human in relation to a living universe).
