In this excerpt from the Institute of Noetic Sciences’ recent teleseminar series, “Shifting Paradigms,”
Monica Sharma, former physician and United Nations program director and
now international leadership development consultant, explains that the
most reliable method for changing outdated institutions is to go to the
source – each person's latent capacity for leadership and meaningful
action.
We are the only species on this planet that can speak, write, reflect,
discover, create, and communicate with one another in words and gestures
and that can give expression to our imagination and our skills in
beautiful artefacts, exquisite musical forms, and brilliant
technological inventions such as the Hubble telescope. How have we come
to believe that this entire creative panorama has no meaning?
Among the beneficiaries of the various shifts in human consciousness
now underway are a little-known group of outliers known as synesthetes.
A synesthete may hear a symphony but also see amorphous, multi-colored
shapes go by. She may say the word “table” and taste cake, just like
Academy Award-winner Tilda Swinton.
The processmind is both inside of you and connected to everything you
notice. It is an active, intelligent “space” between the observer and
observed. It is both you and me and the “us” we share. Studying and
experiencing this processmind will connect the now separate disciplines
of psychology, sociology, physics, and mysticism and provide new useful
ways to relate to one another and the environment.
