Night here...

Sunday night...and quiet.

I will settle for diverse actions...often seeming contradictory...that somehow lead to the generation of meaningful and ever changing outcomes...on the basis of very different and often opposing understandings of the world...a world where porcupines are comfortable and not avoided by marshmallows...

Good morning, Starr* and All --

Just a couple of quick points of agreement --

I will probably write more about this later -- but the big challenge today is not so much in seeing that "we are one" -- but in seeing how "differences" within that communion can be recognized and honored, and not blurred into a false unity or ignored as inconsequential. So, the challenge is not only "spiritual" -- understanding how "all the religions can come together" -- which is not really a new idea -- but in understanding how "democracy" -- the process of collective decision-making -- can be guided from the point of view of wholeness and the One.

Though it is true that interconnecting "the religions" in the context of their differences is indeed a challenge, the issue of a new guided democracy, held in the context of this wholeness -- without excluding humanists and secularists and atheists -- all of whom have a case to make, and a point of view to be respected -- is a much more challenging and demanding question.

The key to making this interconnection, it seems to me, is found in the "perfect" natural/organic mystical geometry of nested circles, and how they can be interconnected across "levels". These ideas are very much related to known and tested concepts, including "sociocracy" and "holacracy" -- but involve some adaptation.

Just commenting on the points you make in this particular email, Starr* -- and remembering points you have made in previous emails, often illustrated with very interesting diagrams -- for me, the critical point is -- you are recognizing the "eye of divine source". I would say that this concept as you express it is either identical to this vision unfolding for me, or very similar, in ways that can be discussed.

So, more or less -- yes, the individual human mind and spirit and intelligence and heart -- can connected to this "divine source" -- following what Ken Wilber has called "The Eye of Contemplation".

But in this case -- this perception is happening in a collective context. It's not simply the perception of an individual, connecting to private divine source. It's a collective process, happening in a group -- where each person in the group might tend to "see the same eye" in slightly different ways, depending on their perceptions and their ideas and their unique psychology.

So -- how does this "collective diversity" converge to a common understanding? Does this happen by magic, or by a process of respectful and convergent negotiation?

In theology, this might be called "Discerning God's Will Together" -- a subject that has been discussed, and regarding which illuminating books have been published. In essence -- this is what we are doing: discerning God's will together -- as best we can, in a diverse context, seen from multiple perspectives, where group convergence/agreement is important ("We have to decide what to do, and we want our decision to be guided by God").

The big idea here is -- "How can we act together to build a work that works (for everyone)?"

More or less the process is -- collectively attune to the whole, to the one -- and receive (collective) guidance through that attunement. Let that collective perception converge through resonance and co-creativity and mutual respect. Understand that the perception and interpretation might be be "perfect" -- but it is the most illuminated and gracious understanding that is possible for this group at this time looking at this question...

Each individual perception contributes to a universal collective perception. A thousand or a million perceptions can converge into one perspective. Is this "the all-seeing eye of God" -- as acting through the individual eyes of a million human beings?

Yes, maybe we can say something like this....

So, at the absolute holistic level of the collective human mind -- we attune together to this oneness, and through that attunement, listen for gracious, wise and informed insight into every particular question that today is dividing the human community, and leading to frustration, blame, rage, and war...

So thank you Starr*, for your strong instinct to maintain the direct human connection to divine source. Let's get good at doing this. Let's learn how to do it together....

Thank you Bruce for providing the Documentary link regarding Crop Circles.

Two things stand out to me personally from the Documentary in view of the most recent Crop Circle (16 Aug. 2014) and my own work and Awareness.

1. That Crop Circles Creations have come about from people's thoughts and have been produced the next day or so, or in a timely manner.

2. That Crop Circles are signs for Humanity pointing to a new Harmonious Day past 2012.

It is well known here that I have been advocating for Direct Connection to the Eye of Source Knowledge by the Individual and that the Veils have been removed so that there is communication from the Unmanifested Planes to the Manifested Planes of existence.

Also, through this process I have been writing Decrees that Align with the Will of Source to assist Humanity through evolving Kosmic Laws.

Earlier this month (15 - 17 August), on several occasions, I was told to stand firm in the Knowledge I have been given.

To my delight a Crop Circle came through on the 16th of August 2012 as a confirmation which I found out about on the 18th of August. Please notice how the Essence of The All Seeing Eye finds it's spiraling way into Being - Indicating the Source Living in Humanity for the Flowering of Civilization

Greetings

Kosmic Laws are now being changed to assist Humankind in it's Ascension processes. Love Energy will prevail over force, darkness, and illusion - and such ignorance and separation will have no sway in the Politics, Religions, or Society at large. And So It Is!.

I am also looking at the network slowly rising and observing the characteristics of the network. Those who are the network do not believe. They do not agree. They do not love. They do not care. They have compassion compassion. They know that all those ugly, disagreeable, cantankerous, hateful, murderous, mad, pathological, criminal, depraved, sexually obsessed, greedy, lust-filled, stupid, unthinking, criminal people out there are very much in here and that they require the very same assistance, help, and support systems that every Homo sapien requires in order to survive.

And yes there is a crisis. It is an eco system crisis. A planetary crisis and it will be followed "shortly" by a solar crisis and then a galactic crisis and then the whole cosmos goes critical. Thats where some of us are heading. The rest are quite happy being comfortable on the way to the grave though things like ebola appear from time to time like the Spanish flue once did in order to hasten the process.

There is nothing to be "done" and "no one" to "do it". . . fortunately...or there would be a great rush to do what has to be done.

There is quite a bit of chatter but the network is rising.

Yes the network IS rising.

Thank you Starr *

For me -- what is going on right now is mostly about the particulars of network design, and how the vastly intricate details of "human differences" can be held within the framework of a single wholeness or oneness.

Maybe we are being called into the white fire of prophecy. That might be. But if so -- this is the form it takes...

This is "a political thing". The question is -- how do these lovable human beings -- who, yes, are "all one" at some highest/deepest level of spirit -- actually work together and reconcile their huge and often ferocious differences on particular points and issues and questions?

It might be true (?), as some people think, that humanity is going to be "changed" or spiritually transformed into beings who by sheer grace know how to resolve every issue and tension and see magical/inspired solutions for all human problems. But if that is going to happen -- it's a long ways off, and we got a lot of work to do between here and there.

Right now -- we've got huge problems on our plate -- ranging from global warming and global economics to a zillion more local issues ("local", like "Gaza" or "Ukraine" or "Iraq", or "Ferguson"), where we are battling one another full-tilt in all our righteous indignant fury, while in many places, our governance process tends to be frozen in polarized gridlock.

What we need, say I -- is a way to "step down" the great universal wisdom of The One -- into any particular local/specific context where some question is besetting the peace of the human race -- and help guide those "diverse" human beings towards an optimal ("win/win") resolution for all concerned. We gotta figure out how we're going to "build a world that works for everyone" -- and this principle, I think, is the key to doing this. We have to master this idea, and unfold its implications everywhere...

For me now, this emerging transformative thesis is simple, yet profoundly complex.

We need direct axial guidance from the heart/center of The One -- into every particular context or location or situation in existence. We need to see this, and and we need to weave it into reality.

Hi Bruce

I agree with you that thinking in terms of Wholeness, Alignment with the Axis of the Absolute, and Infinite Love Energy transforms the Individual, and hence the Worlds around them. There is no other way for an evolving civilization.

Thank You for all your work and refining the information as it expands and unfolds to share with all.

Dear Interspiritualists --

When this "Alliance" was first conceived, a guiding idea was something called "The Integral Hypothesis" -- which I felt was emerging as a simple basis for agreement on new-world global shift activism. There's something emerging across the planet, interspirituality is in the forefront of its spiritual aspects, we can define this "something" -- and inherent in it are the guidelines we need for the way forward....

Since developing this idea here, I've gone on to build another project generally centered, once again, on "politics" -- or the big issues of how independent cultural and demographic groups can work together to build a world that works.

If you want to know how the world is doing on this subject -- try turning on your TV for a minute. The United States Congress is at its lowest approval level ever, and the "list of issues" we are systematically failing to address is encyclopedic.

Today, over on Facebook, without thinking about it much, I just typed something into a box, with the title "Integral Hypothesis" -- as a simple general design statement for a huge project in communal network activism.

TEN-THOUSAND DOORS

Within the framework of simplicity -- this is actually a hugely complex undertaking, looking at every issue imaginable, at every level of scale (city block, neighborhood, city, county, state, nation, world) -- but we COULD design and actually build a mediating network process that contacted millions of individuals and groups, calling them all into a single common center, all though a common centered alignment.

That could happen.

So, maybe for me, what I really should do -- is just kind of feel my way into this statement. Is this right, can it be simplified or clarified or made briefer, is it really a kind of preamble to a broader design process, to be followed, I think, by an activist construction project....?

I don't want to "work on" this too hard right now. I just mostly want to "receive it" and see how it feels, maybe polish and adjust it a bit.

Do we want to knock on ten-thousand doors with an idea like this -- or the immediate practical implications of an idea like this?

INTEGRAL HYPOTHESIS

Everything is contained within Oneness. This principle contains and implies the guiding wisdom of wholeness that can heal the world. Transpartisan politics and enlightened governance/democracy can be sheltered within the framework of this wholeness. Everything in the world -- and every division and source of anger or disagreement or pain -- can be healed through this process, by acknowledging this wholeness.

This principle is a design for network activism, that the human community can consciously undertake, in a systematic way. The entire process of convergence is guided by the pure law of circle, held in its immaculate universal sacred geometry, and aligned to the common-denominator vertical axis that interconnects everything.

This "axial bridge design" image shows how the process of "bridge-building" to converge this wholeness can begin. Within this integral framework can be contained and guided all other facets of society and civilization and human affairs.

This simple idea is the master architectural principle for "the global shift", and can be undertaken and actually developed through a collaborative network process guided by resonance and the wisdom of wholeness.

The Integral Power of Circles

The fundamental core logic of this so-called "stunning integration" runs on the principle of circles -- and the simple/primal principle that "every circle has a center". Ten people in one circle brings the individual centers of ten people into one center -- and the power emerges because the ten individual centers -- in a resonant and tuned context -- merge into one center through the principle of "Namaste"

This unity integrates the circle at its center, and merges with a universal center. This is a well-documented idea, with roots that extend throughout the history of mysticism, and is well-defined by Teilhard deChardin, in quotes listed here: http://networknation.net/teilhard.cfm
