Are You Ready For A Massive Change In Human Consciousness?

Since 2005, the U.S.-based NGO The Pachamama Alliance has been carrying out a global adult environmental education initiative employing its “Awakening the Dreamer” symposiums. Over 100,000 people in approximately fifty nations have taken part in these symposiums (led by over three thousand volunteer facilitators). This is therefore an authentically global initiative that transcends borders, and indeed an unstated assumption of the initiative is that our response to the global ecological crisis must be both locally-based and internationally networked. The initiative’s goals are to enable participants to become more fully aware of the worldview that underlies modern industrial growth societies; to critically examine the often unconscious, unexamined assumptions underlying this worldview; to assess and appreciate the extraordinary potential for transformation at this juncture in history; and to empower participants to become actively involved as agents for change seeking to bring forth a more “environmentally sustainable, spiritually fulfilling, [and] socially just human presence on the planet” (The Pachamama Alliance, 2010). This paper examines the history, goals, philosophy, and methodological approaches of the Awakening the Dreamer initiative within a broader theoretical framework of ecological worldviews education. In so doing, it also explores the significance of this movement and its strengths, as well as some of its potential limitations and challenges. The paper concludes that, while there is a real limit to what can be accomplished within the context of a short (half to one day) workshop, this initiative nonetheless has significant value as one step in a broader process of education, engagement, and empowerment.

INVENTION SCHOOL’S SIGNATURE SERIES

The technological progress of Africa and its diasporans was dramatically broken beginning with slavery and later through its colonization by European powers. With the arrival of the 21st century, a new era of an awakened Africa has dawned. In the graphic novel series “Invention School”, curious young African students explore their creative potential for solving everyday problems through a subset of engineering skills under the watchful and loving guidance of an expatriate African American engineering professor. Watch this uplifting graphic novel series. If you find the series and its content useful, please share widely.

GORGING YOUR LEARNING APPETITE

Powerful media giants continue feeding us steady diets of stories, games, music, and images of exploitation, mayhem, helplessness, victimization, sexism, murder, adultery, preposterous wealth, torture, drugs, deceit, vampires, zombies, thuggery, glorified gangsterism, demonic spirits, horror, war, despair, brutality, crime, vengeance, sex, addiction, psychic disorders, occultism, savagery, lust, hate, prejudicial beauty/virtue standards, and stale mind-numbing escapism. Never underestimate the power of the subliminal messaging in this media content to accustom your subconscious to your further takeover and control. The groundwork is being laid and we are being deliberately manipulated for easier subjugation. The “collusion” between Hollywood and complicit agencies like the CIA is clear. Hollywood has played a little known role as a propaganda machine for the US national security apparatus for many years. Carefully look at the proportion (you’ll be shocked) of currently available movie fare that embodies these themes rather than embodying themes that uplift, transform, and inspire. “Just coincidence”, you say? After a steady diet of this psychic fare (garbage in, garbage out), what normal person would ever be in a position or mindset to connect and collaboratively formulate creative solutions and healing to man-made problems that beset humanity, earth lifeforms, and Mother Earth herself? These incapacitating but profitable offerings by these media giants stifle any visions of progress and action we might otherwise take to deliver ourselves out of the quagmires our modern societies have created that affect the entire world. Why do these companies market and sell so much of this awful, depraved content?? Could it be:

• Predictive Programming is aimed at creating “world culture” and has been assigned to Hollywood to carry out. “Predictive Programming” refers to the use of entertainment and other cultural artifacts to introduce us to planned societal changes. As we come to see these potential changes as familiar, we also have an easier time imagining them to be normal, acceptable, and inevitable, no matter how heinous.
• Social engineering by an elite few? (neutralization and control)
• Prophecy?
• Conspiratorial takeover and mind-control through strategically embedded thought police?
• Greed? (whatever sells)
• Cultivated apathy?
• Cloaked suppression of liberating technologies through powerful diversions?
• Rampaging decadence?
• Modern “ divide and conquer” algorithms for fun and profit?
• Conditioned acceptance of streams of manufactured crises?
• Non-disruption of the current order (disorder)?
• Karma?
• Improperly tuned/authored “New World Order”?
• Stupidity?????
  

  BUILD A BETTER DREAM

• Speak your truth or somebody will speak it for you.
• Vote with your feet and/or pocketbook
• Contribute your uplifting stories and discoveries to the global pool
• Never believe that mainstream media corporations will deliver the full truth to you as they have their own agendas
• As a free enlightened agent, regain control/understanding of the narratives affecting your well-being
• Spread awareness (articles, blogs, email, texts, advertisements, social media, art forms, workshops)
• Activist collaborations
• Dump or carefully scrutinize cable/satellite television’s agenda-packed (often subliminal) content
• Values-ladened family time stories and sharing
• Notify content creators & distributors saying what you DO want. Money is sharper than a sword.
• Dinner table/classroom discussions and viewing vetted movies like this one above.
