Next Phase: Co-Creating a Thriving Planetary Consciousness and Culture

2nd May 2015

Although there have been many, many aspects to the Shift in Consciousness the last 25-30 years, one of the biggest, game-changing and critical Evolutionary Big-Switches that has occurred (and continues) is that of peoplegetting up off their knees, en masse, all over the world, and actively busting the dominator / victim, conqueror / conquered, rich / poor dynamic that has been dominant for thousands of years.

Millions have risen (and continue to rise) globally to challenge ages-old domination of people, environment, the narrative and the commons, and they are building a ‘movement of movements’, one person, post, photo, tweet, prayer, blog, protest at a time.

These significant years will be but a chapter in the history books to be written some day, but for us they represent an exhilarating moment in the evolutionary trajectory from controlled human being to liberated, limitless human being.

Called ‘Joyful Activism’ by Eckhart Tolle, ‘Spiritual Activism’ by Andrew Harvey … and ‘Evolutionary Activism’ by myself … the next phase is about galvanizing one’s free will, imagination and dignity in order to co-create a thriving planetary consciousness and culture, on the collapse of the outgoing, destructive (patriarchal) culture.

This moment is about being here, in other words, and getting creative.

Greater Global Understanding

In 2015, of course, there is greater global understanding of wealth inequality, the corporatocracy, the centralized banking cartels, and the debt-money/fractional reserve banking systems that dismally fail the environment and the majority of human beings and the Earth’s species.

And yet, in the face of enormous corporate control of media and agendas; worldwide spying into our online habits;  fracking our lands;  poisoning our air, food, seas and skies;  aggressive clampdowns on free speech;  and increasing concentration of wealth and power into the hands of the few… people in the millions are speaking truth to that old order. …and getting creative.

They want conclusive moves from competition to collaboration, from hierarchy to equality, from us-and-them polarization to unity-in-diversity… and they are willing to dive into the deep overhauls necessary to transform Religion, Politics, Spirituality, Medicine, Education, Economics and numerous social systems in order to realize their dreams and visions of how we might really freely and abundantly live.

This is what the Shift has accomplished, and it is not ‘out there’, but right here and right now… on this Earth. The ‘New Earth’ is THIS Earth, with human beings the conscious caretakers and powerfully engaged in translating vision into manifested reality.

The ‘New Earth’ that millions are globally co-creating within this ‘living library’ of exhilarating diversity is founded upon the basic human rights principles of universality, accountability, transparency, and equity. It is rooted in interconnection, interdependence, and LOVE, whether one considers him/herself ‘spiritual’ or an ‘atheist’.  It is based on a popular sovereignty which involves direct participation inshared, from-the-ground-up, cooperative decision-making for collective action that serves the common good, with higher levels supporting (rather controlling and manipulating) the lower.

The recognition of our deep interconnectedness and interdependence is giving rise to a planetary consciousness. This consciousness promotes human development through direct engagement and social decision-making, and it fosters cooperation, a care economy, dialogue and a sense of agency, instrumental knowledge and wisdom, values clarification, and social consciousness.  In this ‘New Earth’, the enriched individual is an esteemed part of a larger social whole of living systems and intrinsic relationships, not an isolated atom, and individuals and systems are valued as deeply entwined mirrors of one another’s prosperity, health and wellbeing.
