My Passionate, Yet, Gentle Revolution of the Heart

A Dream Worth Pursuing

A Revolution born of brokenness

Who would not agree that our world is broken and in need of healing? And, I am being conservative when I suggest that 97% of the world’s population could quickly agree on what kind of planet we want to live on. The vision of our sacred future on the Good Red Road is not complicated or difficult.

The Vision is simple

The Vision is logical

The vision is obvious

The Vision is Inevitable

We have arrived at the crystal decision moment. Choices are crystalizing. Does not your heart burn for a world where all can eat and drink, and be sheltered, and have healthcare, and good relationships, and meaningful things to do.

Perhaps for the first time in human history, this kind of world is possible for all.

A Revolution born in beauty and nurtured by compassion

As humans, we are at various stages of evolution. We can safely surmise that over half of us are AWAKE OR AWAKENING. We must ask the question,

‘Why are we not creating a world that a vast majority of us want?’

Will, we not step up to claim our birthright of a sustainable, generous, safe World of Relatedness?

Shall we not Create together, a world where all thrive?

Are we not designed to live in harmony with the earth and its creatures?

Let us Surrender together to our highest vision of Humanity!

Join us now, to manifest The Gentle Revolution of the Heart.

A sustainable world where every human is loved, nurtured, and respected is now quite possible. We can feed, house, sustain, and prosper all of us in a thriving, sustainable way, “Behold, the time has come to unite as one, and encircle the Earth with Love.”

This Revolution is birthed in the heart of all

There is a cry arising in the heart of humanity. It is as clear as it is obvious. It is a confident cry for our birthright: Relationship, Food, Shelter, Clean water, full, free medical care, and meaningful work to do, are our right. We are one people, earthlings all. We share this incredible whirling ball in space. This planet birthed us; to this planet, we owe our allegiance.

Depending on your evolution, you are aware of a pull within to be part of The Gentle Revolution of the Heart. This awareness has been birthed across the planet. It knows no bounds. From every nation, caste, position, and belief, Life itself is urging us to Join this Gentle Revolution.

Consider this your invitation.

If you still feel some hesitation, listen carefully. Reality no longer allows ‘fence sitting’. We have arrived at our moment to decide. Yea or nay, Surrender to Earth’s flow and be at peace, or, resist and suffer.

Our Birthright

We have paid our dues as a species. We solved the bicameral brain conundrum. When we, as a species, developed the ability to compare and contrast, we divided the world into pieces. We began to believe that our picture of reality was the truth. We became lost in a multiplicity of trees, only to miss the forest. We lost awareness of our union with The Earth. As a species, we are both the villain and the hero. Under the seduction of our bicameral mind, we chose separation from Nature and therefore from our own nature. We became the enemy of Nature, and in our confusion, we birthed fear and greed and all manner of destruction.

The Gentle Revolution of the Heart proclaims the restoration of humanity to the Family of Man. Separation has been vanquished by the very Love that created us in the first place. The Gentle Revolution is healing. The Gentle Revolution begins in our Heart of Hearts. The Gentle Revolution brings justice, joy, and peace. The Gentle Revolution is unstoppable. The Gentle Revolution is at hand!

And, we have a great deal to offer our Earth and Her creatures. Our analyzing brain has given us much control of the physical. We have studied the miraculous nature around us. We have made conscious, the awesome structures of reality. And we have seen the Glorious harmonies of Creation. We know what is required to manifest a world of thriving and balanced abundance. We have a clear vision of a world where everyone has housing, food, clean water, relationship, health care, and meaningful work to do.

My Gentle Friends of Planet Earth, “Behold the time has come to Unite as One. Behold, the time has come to encircle the earth with Love.” The choice is before you. Join The Gentle Revolution of the Heart or be left behind to struggle to maintain your failing hold on the little material goods that you managed to accumulate.

The Gentle Revolution Has Begun

These are the signs that The Gentle Revolution of the Heart has begun -

The World Wide Web

There are literally thousands of groups on the World Wide Web promoting peace and human cooperation and enhancement. One can observe the common threads of the unity of humankind.

Crypto-currency

Crypto-currencies are changing our relationships with money. There is even a movement to transfer wealth from the one percent obscenely rich, to the broader community of humankind.

Social Media

From the latest tweet from a friend to the sayings of a modern Guru, the cries of a planet hungry for justice with compassion are shared from heart to heart.

An evolving Unified Human language

English is rapidly becoming the international language of choice. More and more young people are learning English as a second language.

A clarion call for compassionate service-oriented government of and by the People

Across the globe, folks are awakening to desire for a government that serves the needs of its people. We just want to live our lives in loving families and communities of kindness and peace.

An inner sense of yearning to live free and in peace

Ask any common human to describe what kind of world they would choose to live in, and they will reply without hesitation, “Food, shelter, healthcare, clean water, meaningful relationships, and creative work.

My Dream - What Does It Look Like from Here?

Imagine January 1st, 2022, one hundred thousand zoom gatherings over a period of the month. Imagine a billion folks sharing their ideas of the kind of world they want for their children and grandchildren. Imagine Facebook and Google coordinating the meetings and gathering and organizing the discussions into a simple 100-page document.

Now, imagine the worldwide pressure on any government that dared to go against humanity’s best vision. Imagine the worldwide protest and cry if a government offered less than humanity’s best vision of our future as one human family.

If you can imagine even slightly, please join, The Gentle Revolution of the Heart.
