This is my first exposure to SDI. It sounds very interesting. My immediate question is does this world view seem compatible with either Schlesinger Jr’s “private interest/public policy” cycles or with Strauss and Howe’s Generation cyclical theory? Or is there any connection at all with the cyclical view of historical change?

Can the brains that control the wealth in the world……actually be expected to act in a humane way…..I don’t think they have the mind power to act quick enough……….If they don’t act very quickly the chaos that will ensue will assure them defeat. The foundation is rotten. Whoever remains standing at the end of the day must rebuild on the right foundation there is no other choice. The real foundation is based on –Unconditional Love-

Agape always…..JV

Can anyone here point me towards this “Economics 101″ article that Jeff B. is referring to in first comment above?

When we begin to realise that every ACTION affects the whole and since we are all part of the whole
we are all affected then and only then will change take place. When I and you realise that the air we
breathe connects and affects us all then we may begin to all act. The same with our resources.
When we realise how precious they are and that many of them we can’t live without then we will
see money is not as valuable as staying alive. I think we are all realising and beginning to reassess.
I think the recession is a time for us to re evaluate.

You have absolutly right, but many countries are approaching their time. Look at my country, that european union money triggered “orange”. They won , and they are also dealing with positive GDp right now. But using your thinking and applying this to politics we can use this moentum to prepare for “leap” to catch up old Europe.
Than all together with this understanding we can make “change” happen

Thought Provoking indeed. I believe that the so called “Leap” is always in progress. There are so many indications.

I beleive that for any great creation, there has to be great destruction. In the 21st century, there are so many signals of some great destructions happening – Economic meltdown, the way we do business now, Capitalism, Oil, this entire Economic / Material world based on the scarcity paradigm. In the midst of this chaos, Humans want change. To the unawakened, It will seem like there is going to be a “Leap”. But the leap to me is about the awareness of the awareness. It is all around. People’s Consciousness of all that is around.

To me the “Leap” is a “Way”, To the uniniciated it may seem that there is a revolution on its way, something that is going to happen suddenly, at a point in time or in a window. But to me its not so. It has been happening always, this silent evolution, within this constant ever changing world, an always evolving universe. Thats because there is always balance in this universe. It is our inability to see this balance, that we think this Leap, will be sudden. Also the word in itself, Leap – meaning jump makes it sound instant, sudden, etc…

In the last 300 hundred years there have been so many inventions by Humans, that it seems that the awareness of Mankind of the Universal Power, God, or whatever you call it, is declining. Yes thats true, we are ignorant, because we are not looking at it consciously. But it is simply about being able to.

And so how are we to Prepare ourselves for this “Leap”. Frankly just be, just look around, just do, and in all of what we be / see / do, be aware. There are going to many models, that will be created, and then using technology, we will market it, and make it sound like some great stuff that needs to be acheived, and yet it is really so simple.

Would love to hear from anyone else as well………

Cheers,

Yogesh

“Economics 101″ is a great article!! Back in 2004 I attended SDi training in Dallas. I was very impressed with SDi model, but the problem I saw in getting the ideas into the mainstream was that the SDi model was being hijacked by the Left. Very little consideration was given to the ideas of the Right. That is not integral. Obama won the election on a skillful use of Second Tier language and content, but using a demagogery appealing to pre-modern impulses. Style over substance. The “stimulus” package, for example, can’t be justified in rational economics of Orange, but does appeal to the “feel good” mythology of the Left. Again, not integral–certainly not Second Tier. Does the inclusion of “Economics 101″ mean that there is now a greater recognition of the Right in a truly integral approach?

A very insightful blog. Change will of course happen, if only because things cannot remain the same. The question then becomes, as you rightly infer, will it be better or worse. We can hope for better, but to make it happen I think will require more than hope.
