Myopic innovation culture is eating the world. Visionaries don't know how to live, work, or create with wisdom. This observation has driven a deep exploration of two questions: 1) What does Life on Earth want innovators to learn and practice? [inner development] 2) How do we bring ideas to life in ways that are better for all life? [outer expression] I think a lot about worldviews and process; how the innovation culture we’ve inherited is violent to self, others, society and ecology. It would suck if all our good intentions wound up causing even more violence to the web of life in the process. How can we together unravel from this dominant paradigm together as a spiritual path home, learning and practicing a more holistic process of bringing paradigm shifting solutions to life, such that we and our processes and our creations exist in right relationship with the web? #initiation #embodiedethics #ritual #interdependence #intergeneration #circulartime #conflicresilience #rhythmicrest #natureintelligence
