Bringing clarity to a chaotic world

  • As a surge of populism is altering the face of politics around the world, a puzzling irony hangs in the air: populism wins approval and votes from a generally hard-working socio-economic sector that often struggles to make ends meet – yet its leaders, once elected, commonly implement policies that slash at programs supporting the education, housing, health and welfare of those same voters, while they hand out juicy perks to the very rich.

  • "When our thinking unmoors itself from the body, it cuts itself away from that embodied knowing; and then we come to feel and believe that we are superior to the world and distinct from it and that the fate of humanity is somehow sealed and independent from that of life on earth.

  • "Because each of us is born with a unique set of sensitivities, each of us is uniquely informed about the world. So three people walking into a cocktail party at the same time will experience it differently. One person might notice that the plant in the corner needs water. Another might observe that carnation red is the new trending color in fashion this season. The third might notice the way Bob is looking at Alice and read into it a burgeoning relationship. None of these observations relies on abstract reasoning, but each displays intelligence in its way of reading the world." – From Radical Wholeness by Philip Shepherd Photo by Luca Huter on Unsplash
  • “If you are divided from your body, you are also divided from the body of the world—which then appears to be other than you, or separate from you, rather than the living continuum to which you belong.” As quoted by Eve Ensler in her 2010 TED talk. Join me at Omega Sept 23-28 to unlock the divisions in the body and awaken to the living continuum.

  • "The more we free ourselves from the Story of ‘who we know ourselves to be’, the more we discover who we are in the mirror of the mindful Present." Read more "Radical Wholeness" by Philip Shepherd http://ow.ly/qdBN50ibmG1 – Photo by John Westrock on Unsplash
