Empowered dialogue can bring wisdom to democracy

by Tom Atlee

An emerging form of democracy offers hope for generating the wisdom our cultures need to survive the 21st century and co-evolve into higher levels of awareness and aliveness.

The new democracy is grounded in the power of true dialogue among diverse people to help The People (as a whole) transcend the limits of personal perspectives and resonate with each other and the world through the fact of their interconnectedness, revealing bigger pictures and deeper wisdom than any individual or group could find alone, making it possible to create together solutions, visions, communities and societies that make sense and serve Life now and for generations to come.



Vedic architecture – the power of life-giving principles

by Cate Montana

FAIRFIELD, IA - On October 25, 2003, a fire began near the mountain town of Ramona in San Diego County, California. Fueled by acres of dry brush and fanned by strong Santa Ana winds, the Cedar Fire spread rapidly, burning 273,246 acres, destroying 2,232 homes, and killing 14 people. According to Jeff Harter, battalion chief of the California Fire Plan, California Department of Forestry, the speed and ferocity of the blaze “were heart stopping.”
