Re: Bye Bye Whistleblowers.
Here's a quote: [added by mod K]
It appears to me that the successful companion to this new world is a new human – a new person. This new man (and woman) effectively transits the coming disruptions and contributes to co-creating the new world that will emerge by transcending the day-to-day disruptions and uncertainties – connecting with the consciousness that is not linked to the concern and fear that seems to naturally attend thinking about these futures.
Eckhart Tolle (A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose) provides the best articulation that I have found of that space of living in the Now: a seemingly incongruous state of knowing about these possible futures but not thinking about them. You disconnect from the externalities and possibilities by acting, moment-by-moment, from the essential Presence that enables the experience of the reality we observe.
excerpt from John L Petersen founder of the Arlington institute
This summarizes quite well my own views .
It is a very passive attitude to wait for someone to tell you the future .
The alternative is to create your own future by living in the Now .
Then whatever comes won't delude
you or take you by surprise.
It is the attitude you take towards whistleblowers that makes the whole difference.
Love always
