Description
Our job is to transform our dysfunctional societies, through a collective shift in human consciousness. Transcending our "Caterpillar Consciousness" is the single most important thing that we must do.
It's time to become the butterfly.
Collective consciousness is where ALL of the masters and wisdom teachers have been leading us. Now, at this time of global peril, we have the ability to achieve it.
We are imagination-impaired.
We must re-learn how to DREAM BIG.
Through Commonway, we will implement change that is:
Humbling... enough to restore the Earth and our place in the Web of Life
Bold... enough to match our turbulent times
Conscious... enough to heal the human spirit
Visionary... enough to propel us into our positive future
Creative... enough to spark and feed the human imagination
Practical... enough to actually work.

We fight over Left and Right. We fight over capitalism, communism and socialism. We fight over black and white…In reality, NONE of these ways of thinking will fix our broken society. ALL of these ways of thinking will just perpetuate the problems - changing who is in charge of a sinking ship.The solution: a NEW system of politics/economics, based on an AWAKENED consciousness. Here’s what it looks like...
Culture is a result and a reflection of our practiced consciousness. We can have a culture that locks us into our narrow, antagonistic thoughts about ourselves and our ‘Other’. Or, we can have an OVER-CULTURE, one that can help us move past our petty squabbles and catalyzes our Vision of a world for all living beings. What we need is...The Singapore Solution
Slogans, breaking windows, calling names, going numb… do any of those things actually change society?How do we actually change society?Do we spend our time talking to the extreme ends, or do we address the middle?If we are talking to the Center, we need to talk to about centering issues, not what appeals to the radical fringes (Right and Left).We need to talk about higher orders of consciousness.-----Values----- Visions----- A course forward
What’s the difference between them?Very uncomfortable truthPrivilege“Poor Black Trash” (America’s black underclass)People acting like they don’t respect themselves.Everyone has to change.Ex: CovidEx police
-- The problem isn’t what we think-- Problem is not Russia-- Problem with Rome was not the Visigoths, but the collapse of the Roman Empire.Other example: LA Confidential-- The answer is not how do we pressure a toxic society, but how we create a brand new one.-- I’ll show you how it’s done. I’ll show you how we’re going to do it.
Regardless of what we believe, the world does not revolve around the whims of Americans. For us to see our way clearly into the 21st Century and beyond, we must learn to see beyond our borders. We must learn how to think and act like a planet.
The Left and the Right represent the path to a toxic status quo. To solve our challenges, we need a new form of consciousness. Feeling good about wasting time (breaking windows).
Beyond Spirituals. Envisioning Our Future means more than celebrating our heroes past efforts. We must learn to envision an inclusive world for all living beings.
How much of our life is a prison of our own creation? How can we transform that?
How much of the current climate of reactivity stems from fear and what can we do about it?
Can we elevate the discussion in American and globally enough to Mend our society?
America has regressed - we need to stop and stop NOW!
Is it possible to bridge the gap and find unity?
Can we take the post election challenge to unity?
Like every other human society, we are witnessing the passing of the “American Empire”. “Rome Dies”… but you don’t have to die with it…
Like birthing a baby, birthing our transformed society will involve sacrifice, some pain, a lot of messiness and a bit of time. And, like childbirth, the result will be worth it!
It's time to create a world that works for all. The election is over and regardless of whether your side won or lost, it's time that all peoples come together to create a common future in a world that works for all. We can do this together.
