In this incredibly positive and hopeful video about our collective future, Andrew Harvey offers the vision at the heart of his new book with Carolyn Baker, “Radical Regeneration: Birthing the New Human in the Age of Extinction.” Here are just a couple of key snippets from his talk:
“We are in the birth canal of a new species… The Great Secret has been kept secret for thousands of years because of its explosive nature. And it is fundamentally this: Humanity is destined evolutionary to be divinized – to come into a wholly new level of divine empowerment, beauty, creativity, passion, naked intensity of being… This great secret is the secret that you and I are children of the father-mother: utterly sacred, utterly holy in mind, heart, soul and body. And, utterly one in the cells of body with the great, endlessly creative unified force field of the divine, which if we get into radical, naked, vibrant, devoted connection with it can transfigure us.”
We are livings through a definitive evolutionary crisis that demands of us an unparalleled response both of deep inner work and of focused sacred activism. Andrew will challenge you to accept both the horror and the amazing potential of our time and offer practices that build faith, clarity, courage, and stamina – including: radical humility, radical unknowing and sacred activism.
CLN Editor NOTE: Andrew makes some very brief statements about the current state of the world, including: humanity's negative impact on the environment and species extinction, politics, Donald Trump, Greta Thunberg, Black Lives Matter, “spiritual” people, and more. You do NOT need to agree with everything he says. Focus on the big picture that he presents. If you are unable to do that, you have missed the entire point of his message, which is very, very positive.
