Ecology of Freedom
|
The first book of this two-volume series,Freedom: What it is and how to Acheive it. Vol 1, Freedom & the Self, examined who we are, what our capabilities might be, and what possible potential lies ahead of us. On a very basic level, it's concluded that we are 'spiritual beings having a human experience', and that the only limits on consciousness are self-imposed; that we create and perpetuate our own realities, our own experiences, moment by moment. As a result, each of us is totally responsible for what fills our awareness and of what fills our 'experience' within each moment.
In Volume 2, Freedom and the Ecology of Relationship, we expand this enquiry to what the developing 'complexity' of our 'vehicles', i.e., our human selves, and of the consciousness that inhabits these vehicles have created in the social and ecological milieu surrounding us at our present moment in evolution. From there we will look at how the ever-increasing change in this complexity is currently guiding us in new and unexpected directions toward a future we can only now catch a glimpse of through the yet unrevealed potential of humanity and its creations.
These future changes will, as always be driven by the search for both inner and outer freedom, the freedom to expand and evolve, to self-actualize, not only personally in our beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors but in our institutions, which reflect the collective character of those the institutions serve.
As past beliefs, levels of knowledge and the institutions grown from them are seen in the light of future creativity, discovery and innovation, their frailties and weaknesses will become apparent. Though once useful, they now must go the way of all outdated 'tools' of humanity, tools that have given us so much but now are only holding us back from further advancement.
We are at another crucial crossroads of change now, one made even more crucial than those which have gone before simply because of the incredible rate of change and potential of both humanistic and scientific nature. This new crossroads is being created by thinking about who we are and where and how we fit in this complex world and the new ways of living deriving from this process. It is a crossroads of wonderful new technologies and ways of living being made possible by those technologies.
It is also a crossroads where the possibilities of these new ways of thinking and being come into direct conflict with anachronistic vested interests clinging to past ways of being and doing, they find so safe and rewarding. The vested interests have the power of stagnancy and complacency, yet the new and innovative march irreverently into the future. One of the first steps of freedom toward this new world is a global realization of the deep embeddedness of our world with the natural world that surrounds us and the absolute way in which our futures, ours and the natural world, are so inexorably and completely interconnected.
