Toward a World that Works for Everyone
TEDxConcordiaUPortland – Sharif Abdullah – A World for All – It’s our Choice Dr. Shariff Abdullah (he recently changed the spelling of his name for numerological reasons) (1) contacted me recently to inform me of the fact that he’d published a book called Creating a World that Works for All in 1999. (2) His research […]
The project to put a man on the moon by the end of the Sixties is an example of creating a context, which transcended the forces ranged against it, and brought about the result. The use of a deadline allows for an orchestration of efforts which would not be possible if we left the goal […]
How can we effect change without losing inclusivity? Michael said recently: “Do not get caught in the drama of white hats or black hats, or good guys or bad guys. All beings are birthed directly from the Heart of One upon this beautiful Planet of Gaia, and far beyond. “There is no being beyond redemption, […]
What makes an idea one whose time has come? An idea’s time comes when the state of its existence is transformed from content into context. The matter is not something we can figure out with our minds. This work transcends ordinary intellect. Werner Erhard, The End of Starvation: Creating an Idea Whose Time Has Come. […]
I remember how I’d sit around doing precious little as a child until the day arrived when I could join a baseball team. All of a sudden I had a structured activity that I enjoyed in my life. I had a sense of belonging – I wore a black baseball cap, belonged to Dietrich Collins […]
What will overcome the conditions and forces is an idea whose time has come, Werner asserts. When something’s time comes, change takes whatever form is available to it and happens. Werner Erhard, The End of Starvation: Creating an Idea Whose Time Has Come. 1977, at http://www.wernererhard.net/thpsource.html An Idea Whose Time Has Come Victor Hugo said, […]
What will it take to bring gender equality to the world? Worldwide support for an end to gender inequality by Jan. 1, 2023. Sabarimala temple: India court to review ruling on women’s entry BBC.com, Nov. 14, 2019 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-50415356 India’s Supreme Court has agreed to review its landmark judgement allowing women of menstruating age to enter […]
It’s probable that all currency holders after the Reval will be playing multiple roles – that is, wearing many hats – rather than just one. I’m no exception and before I go further with the discussion of creating context, I need to say a word about them. Otherwise even I get confused as to who’s […]
Werner tells us that our beliefs create a fundamental condition in which we live our lives and give rise to forces which are impossible to resist as long as we approach matters out of that condition. A condition is a position, a point of view or belief, that functions as a fundamental ground of being. […]
When I took the est Training in 1979, one of the statements that was made in it stayed with me from then till now. It was Werner Erhard’s declaration on responsibility: “Responsibility begins with the willingness to take the stand that one is cause in the matter of one’s life. It is a declaration not […]
Any position we take simply calls up its opposite, Werner asserts. We end up in a “pea soup” of positions and their opposites. Confusion, controversy, conflict, doubt, lack of trust, and opinions surrounding the problem of hunger and starvation result inevitably from any position we take. Werner Erhard, The End of Starvation: Creating an Idea […]
I’d ordinarily wait for Werner’s booklet (1) to finish being posted before writing this article, but, just as I couldn’t stay a moment longer in the hospital, (2) having read the document, so I can’t wait another day before beginning to outline where I and this blog will be going. As you’ll see if you […]
Werner continues with the limiting beliefs that undermine our efforts to make a difference in the quality of life on our planet. Starvation does not persist on the planet, he asserts, because it’s inevitable and there are no solutions. Werner Erhard, The End of Starvation: Creating an Idea Whose Time Has Come. 1977, at http://www.wernererhard.net/thpsource.html […]
The issuing of the 2023 declaration brought some comment on Intel Dinar Chronicles. I’d like to share one of the articles I posted there: LB: “Why is it even though we are told again and again that the New Earth is not going to be something that we build on a 3D level we are […]
“When the time for things comes, they happen by whatever means are available,” Werner Erhard said. (1) Three recent events illustrate that. The first is the recent commemoration of the fall of the Berlin Wall. When the time came for freedom for East Germans, not even a concrete wall could prevent its advent and spread […]
