Planetary Mind Becoming Fully Human In The 21st Century

"Who am I?" Individualism and democracy have resulted in many material and political advances, but have led to alienation, fragmentation, divisiveness, selfishness, greed, and the growing planetary identity crisis. We seek a new model, an altered paradigm, a world view which allows us to connect ourselves to a greater whole without losing our sense of individual value and worth. There is an obvious need for a new approach to living and dying in the 21st century. Out of the confusion and conflicts being generated by the systemic transformation we are undergoing on a planetary scale, only one seed of thought appears to be sufficient for the purpose of redefining the process we are all part of. This is the model of interconnected systems joining together as extensions of the universal mind to form a global entity that is able to organize and regulate its own energy systems and resources in an efficient, equitable fashion that insures at least minimal subsistence for all, and a subsequent lessening of conflict throughout the world. But adopting such a view means a full transformation of our personal perceptions, our families and societies, of our nations and races. The Planetary Mind describes the foundations of an altered paradigm called "Hologenics" that is a way of viewing human experience so as to generate an integrated, interconnected awareness: a planetary mind. It tells the individual "I" how to look at the world in such a way as to see beyond the divisions and confusions inherent in an apparently fragmented world, and to find ourselves, to see that "we" are unified within the universal mind.
