Publisher: Inner Traditions Bear and Company ISBN: 9781594773280 Number of pages: 144 Weight: 209 g Dimensions: 229 x 152 x 8 mm MEDIA REVIEWS This book presents clear evidence of this connectedness and describes the tools we need to make our world greener and our planet safer as we strive to realize the holistic consciousness of connection through the Akashic field. Change on this level calls for a profound shift in consciousness and a clear understanding that-as cutting-edge physics shows-we are truly connected with each other and with the cosmos. We have an opportunity to move from the current political and business model of grow or die to a sustainable world respectful of human beings, nature, and the planet. He shows how we can replace the limited consciousness of our failing society with the holistic consciousness that is reflected in the unified field of quantum physics: the Akashic field. In WorldShift 2012, Ervin Laszlo brings together insights for creating sustainable positive change from spiritual leaders, scientists, and visionary businesspeople-people such as Albert Einstein, Mohammad Yunus, Vaclav Havel, Eckhart Tolle, Ken Wilber, David Korten, Paul Hawken, and Tomoyo Nonaka, former CEO of Sanyo Electronics. But with great danger comes great opportunity-the opportunity for fundamental change that will transform our societies from top to bottom. The Whispering Pond: A Personal Guide to the Emerging Vision of Science (Element Books, Ltd.The deepening economic crisis and the threat posed by climate change and other social and ecological trends has caused many to despair. The Systems View of the World: A Holistic Vision for Our Time (Hampton Press, 1996) It could spread far and wide, and in the end it could change the world." In these critical and unstable times that change can be the “butterfly” that triggers a storm. When we shed obsolete beliefs and adopt new thinking, we change our consciousness and change ourselves. If we are part of humanity, and humanity is part of life on the planet, what we do to others and to nature we do also to ourselves. ![]() If we are one with each other and with nature, our responsibilities do not end with ourselves, our family, our country and our company they encompass the human community and the biosphere. The second belief regards the sphere of human responsibility. William James was right: we are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep. One is that the ancient saying “we are all one” is not just fiction but has roots in reality. In a number of “alternative cultures” people think and act in a more positive way. New thinking is not utopian or unprecedented it is already emerging at the creative edge of society. ![]() As Einstein said, you can't solve a problem with the same kind of thinking that produced the problem. But how can you become part of the solution? Here you must take a further step: adopt new thinking. If you hold such beliefs, you are part of the problem. ![]() The environment can be engineered like a settlement or a highway to fit our needs and demands. For all intents and purposes the Earth is an inexhaustible source of resources and an infinite sink of wastes. Technology and efficiency are the answer, no matter what the question. If we want peace, we must prepare for war. ![]() People owe allegiance only to one nation and one company-the rest are strangers and competitors. The more money you have, the better you are (and very likely also the happier). In the ruthless competition for fitness the ends justify the means. Life is a struggle for existence only the fittest (meaning the wealthiest or most powerful) survives. Everyone is separate and rightfully pursues just his or her own interest. How can you do that? First of all, get rid of the old consciousness, and the values and beliefs that support it. "Gandhi said, "be the change you want to see in the world." In today's world this means change your consciousness so others would change theirs.
