Navigating Our Evolutionary Times: A Conversation with Charles Eisenstein
To launch our podcast Front And Center: Writing Our New Story Together ... and to help propel us off the political battlefields and on to the creative playing fields, we had a conversation with visionary philosopher Charles Eisenstein, author of several books including, “The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know Is Possible.”
Says Charles: “We are immersed in a story of separation, a story that has served us for millennia, and is now breaking down, leaving us with a crisis of meaning, a crisis of identity, an uncertainty, and panic even -- and also a sense of possibility of transcending the circumstances we call the human condition.”
He calls the vision of a brighter future “the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible” because, he says, “that feeling often goes against what the rational mind, which is steeped in the old story, believes to be possible. But the heart knows the world is supposed to be, and can be, so much more beautiful, authentic, joyful, harmonious and alive than what we’re accustomed to.”
Of course, on our way to that “beautiful world”, we have to deal with the contrast – “the more ugly world our programming insists is probable.” Charles recently came up against that ugliness after publishing a piece called “Mob Morality and the Unvaxxed” that got him canceled and de-platformed because he dared to – mildly – criticize the official pandemic story.
Charles discusses that too, and offers a much-needed pathway to sanity and sanctity at a time of fear and manipulation. He also addresses these “frequently UNASKED questions”:
How do we use this “more beautiful world” as a guiding light we navigate toward? How do we re-humanize one another, and emerge from seeking to control life’s conditions, and take command of our own lives? How do we balance the needs of the collective and the sacredness of the individual? And how do we create a “sane asylum” in the midst of our current polarized insanity?
Join us for this enlivening and heartening conversation.
