I’ve seen the first article before, but really appreciate you sharing both.
As I finish Part Four, I’m exploring how even our best approaches to systems change carry different worldview “flavors.”
My interest is in how we build across different worldviews, rather than making any one of them the common framework or requiring agreement about worldview as the condition for belonging.
I’d love to hear how that distinction lands with you after you finish the essay.
"an underlying sacred relational order in which difference did not erase relationship" - Yes. Sharing an awareness that the source of one is the source of all, that all are created from the same "fabric" just fashioned differently, is the key, I feel, to the treasure deeply hidden beneath all the minutiae of living daily life. It is the needle in the haystack that allows reality to be sown together in a most pleasing form for all involved... Good work, Richard. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for this remarkable article. I understand and appreciate the linear and nonlinear way you approaches this topic and look forward to part four.
BTW: Have you heard about these studies?

I have personal interest in the inner transformational work and how it relates to collective healing and systems change.
Thank you, Bette, for your kind words of support.
