Conscious Evolution & Planetary Culture

This book follows on Calleman’s The Global Mind. In the past few years the world has witnessed changes in social consciousness whose sudden development the ruling scientific paradigm has not been able to explain.

Can awakened consciousness contribute to social change and, if so, how? David Nicol introduces the concept of “subtle activism” to describe the use of consciousness-based practices like meditation and prayer to support collective transformation, such as global meditation directed toward peaceful resolution of a conflict.

Infused with visionary power, Sacred America, Sacred World is a manifesto for national evolution that is both political and deeply spiritual.

Why have we failed to create the happy, peaceful world that we all want? And what can we do about it? For more than three decades, Jalaja Bonheim has explored these questions in her work with women leaders, activists, and spiritual seekers from around the world.

In this era of government gridlock, economic and ecological devastation, and seemingly intractable global violence, our future is ever more ripe for—and in need of—fresh, creative reimagining.

Award-winning environmental journalist and author, Christian Schwägerl traveled the globe extensively, visiting rising megacities and interviewing key leaders in the fields of science, politics and culture.
