“If the positive innovations connect exponentially before the massive breakdowns reinforce one another, the system can re-pattern itself to a higher order of consciousness and freedom without the predicted economic, environmental, and social collapse...If the system could go either way, a slight intervention to assist the convergence of the positive can tip the scales of evolution in favor of the enhancement of life on Earth.” IfsWayEarthOrderSocialConsciousnessEconomicEvolutionHigherInnovationHarmonyEnvironmentalPatternsFavorsScalesMassiveCollapseInterventionBreakdownConvergenceEnhancement Author:Barbara Marx Hubbard
“Since ancient times, the left side has stood for the side of the unconscious or the unknown; the right side, by contrast, has represented the side of consciousness or wakefulness. Through the late twentieth century, the movement of the Left limited themselves to a materialist understanding of reality- exemplified by Marxism- demanding social justice and economic equality but not the restoration of intuition and the recognition of the hidden, qualitative dimensions of being suppressed by the mental-rational consciousness, narrowly focused on the quantifiable.” RealityLeftSocialUnderstandingSidesJusticeConsciousnessEconomicCenturyMovementLateSocial JusticeAncientIntuitionFocusedRationalRecognitionUnconsciousDimensionsContrastRationalityMarxismTwentieth CenturyRestorationAncient TimesQualitativeEconomic Equality Author:Jean Gebser
“The gravitation constant is the same always. But the economic constants-these elasticities of demand and supply-depending, as they do, upon human consciousness, are liable to vary.

“Even if the constants which economists wish to determine were less numerous, and the method of experiment more accessible, we should still be faced with the fact that the constants themselves are different at different times.

“The enormous social change involved in a sexual revolution is basically a matter of altered consciousness, the exposure and elimination of social and psychological realities underlying political and cultural structures. We are speaking, then, of a cultural revolution, which, while it must necessarily involve the political and economic reorganization traditionally implied by the term revolution, must go far beyond this as well.” WellsMatterRealityPoliticalPoliticsSocialWomenTermConsciousnessEconomicRevolutionInvolvedStructureEnormousPsychologicalSexismSocial ChangeExposureAlteredEliminationImpliedSexual RevolutionReorganization Book:Sexual Politics Source: Sexual Politics
“The problems that we are facing are multiplying on the planet - economic, environmental, social, political upheaval, the list goes on. It's a time of change and transition and, as I see it, we are entering a new state of consciousness. It's a transition between one state of consciousness and another. It's an evolutionary leap that is happening.” StatesProblemPoliticalSocialConsciousnessEconomicPlanetsGoes OnHappeningsEnvironmentalListsLeapTransitionEnteringStates Of ConsciousnessUpheavalMultiplying Author:Eckhart Tolle
