| Quantum Consciousness ~ dancing with the Devas |
|
|
| Many pioneering groups of peoples co-creating intentional communities have tended to emphasise either one or the other; a social orientation, or earth-care, but rarely both are integrated. In the holistic view, nature and the deva kingdoms are not “out there” either somehow disconnected from us – but an extension of the holistic web of our life, of consciousness, of the Spirit in all things. It has been said that the greatest healing of the white races, perhaps of the Aryan race of all shades, as a whole, is in the restoring of our Earth connection. This is depicted for us in the “Green Man” and the androgyne archytypes, and portrayed for us in the Virgo Labour of classical esoteric astrology where man and woman unite. It is said that women are the true keepers of fire now and for this they need to truly know how to receive the gift of fire, whereas for men it is to truly to know how to give that gift, though it is within us both. |

For such new culture to emerge in the world we humans will be integrated holistically as a universal family that is both reconnected to the seeding of life from the centres of the cosmos and, in the deepest ways, to the Spirit in Nature, to the natural environment. The greatest challenge we share in achieving this together is to integrate the inner life with our outer life. It is a question of moving out of our separative isolated thinking into a quantum interconnected consciousness where the individual is aware of the infinite potentials of life within the context of personal creativity. For people as a whole, this integrity of our Self may mean no longer separating our social orientation, our sense of kinship and community, with our relationship to the natural world, our sharing and caring of resources, of land, its nature and use that sustains our lives. This is stewardship for humans who have found how to fit into the life as a whole. Life then becomes a synthesis, something greater than all the seed parts, something the mind knows and sees and accepts as One and within which we have a role not as users or abusers but as co-creators. This new consciousness, when integrated holistically, is inherent in new humanity, especially flowering in younger generations, people who are preparing for their turn that will come when we have ended what we call his-story and consciously begin anew story both his and hers, out of our unified consciousness. Cultural creatives are also those that are stimulating new holistic minded experiments in group-minded creative living that are at the frontiers of our human experience. The soul is group-minded. People are finding they are motivated now to move out of isolated experiences to find, to meet and to relate to people of like-mindedness. The traditional bonds are ended. We are an extended family now in universal relationship. We are seeking greater possibilities of self-expression and a responsive freedom, that enable us to create lives together. In the global eco-village movement, for example, we see new holistic neighbourhoods and “eco-hesive” communities emerging, of people recreating their experience of how society may be. This underlying motive, over the last few decades, has manifested in two ways. Through introvertion, through self-development, the healing arts and a psychological integration on the one hand, and through extrovertion, through land-rights, green politics, permaculture and sustainable living, thus integrating with nature. In a society where we know even DNA is price-tagged and every square cubit of the bio-sphere is under ownership – the greatest challenge now today from both these motives, for people as a whole but especially in the eco-village movement, is to integrate our social orientation of seeking to experience creative peaceful relationships, alongside our role of stewardship within the natural world – to sustain and develop our lives together from a sense of creative consciousness that connects us all. These challenges are two sides of one journey and a key to reaching a holistic future of new human being. The journey or process that takes us there is the challenging part but when we know what the goal is, the future is assured. Our starting points may be very different, our challenges may be similar; meeting basic needs, possible relocation, new livelihoods, learning cultural mechanics and non-violent communication, cultivating natural food, pure water, whole health and natural building. We will pick up a whole new raft of skills on the way. What will the new centres and communities of human living be like? What does it mean to live from an integrated sense of our society, to share land not as owners but as caretakers, stewards of both the nature and the future? Eco-communities are tending to manifest centres of group-minded quantum consciousness. They are more able to tap into an infinitely greater pool of possibilities imagined by the co-creative mind-set. When this integrity exists between people as a whole they will more naturally mobilise their skills and natural resources to help one another meet their needs. This economy of an integrated group of people mobilises the principle of sharing from an awareness of feelings and needs. This is like group clair-sentience. Solutions and needs are met from out of this magnetic pooling of intentionality. A willingness to communicate together, without blame or reaction, arises from one’s holistic awareness, of being a part within the whole. In other words, when we know, at that deepest most fundamental level of our lives, we are One, that “our needs” get met because at this deeper level we are meeting our own. For this we must really “own our stuff” and let go of victim thinking. We only need to acknowledge that the experience I am having is mine entirely; there is no-one or anything out there separate from that one or thing within me. I am having “this experience” now and I can change it. All the seeds of our cosmic and solar connections flow into these new organisms of group integrated living. It is out of our expression of group-minded sustainable living that new culture is created. This is the fruit from the flower born of the seed of our synthesis and of mind. How do we integrate nature as part of our experience? Returning to the land, as so many people are seeking to do, calls into question land-rights, ownership and use. But only when nature is integrated again as part of our experience, will we be able to truly share the land under common ownerhip, as caretakers of nature, her resources, and as guardians of the future for generations to come. Only then can we can partake of nature’s most abundant cornucopea – as part of ourselves and our being. Let me share from one life’s journey a vision of how the spirit moves in Man and in nature, a way given to us from the ancient world that tells of the Five sacred elements and five seasons . . . |

When integrated
with the wholeness of our Selves and the oneness of life we humans will
manifest a new experience of how society can be in a culture born from
living creatively.
