What is the meaning of life? It is one of humanity’s oldest and most enduring questions—and one that continues to invite deeply personal answers. In this thoughtful reflection, Robert D. Sears looks at how some of history’s greatest philosophers and spiritual thinkers approached the question, then brings those ideas together with his own perspective on what makes a life meaningful.
Why has warfare remained one of humanity’s most persistent challenges, despite our intellectual and technological progress? In this thought-provoking article, author Steve Taylor explores the deep psychological and spiritual roots of war, tracing its emergence to a profound shift in human consciousness thousands of years ago. He suggests that only by transcending the illusion of separation and embracing our shared human and spiritual identity can we move toward a more peaceful world.
Today we have reached a point where we can no longer afford to ignore this inner world. It is human actions and human decisions that lie behind so many of the world’s problems….Our global crisis is, at its root, a crisis of consciousness.

We are a species gone mad. The essence of the madness that afflicts our species is that we don’t know who we are. Many of us have become identified with our mask, our persona, the role we are playing in the world. Intrinsic to this process is that we split off, dissociate from and compartmentalize the darker, less savory aspects of ourselves, rendering them unconscious.
To an impartial observer – say, an alien zoologist from another planet – there must be very compelling evidence that human beings suffer from a serious mental disorder, and are perhaps even insane. The last few thousand years have been an endless catalogue of insane behavior.
‘The 1 Field’, using the scientific tools of the 21st century, examines this assumption through interwoven storylines: The life stories and researches of groundbreaking figures in the study of consciousness, and scientific experiments supervised by research institutes and scientists worldwide.
Can spirit be measured?
Is there a field that connects everything?
How did we arrive at a point in the United States where unbridled consumerism, endless war, vast surveillance, conformity, obesity, illiteracy, loneliness, victimhood, bitterness, infinite division, mindless entertainment, and an insatiable appetite for OUTRAGE came to be the defining characteristics of American civilization?
April 8, 2022. On this day, Buddhists celebrate the commemoration of the birth of Gautama Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, thought to have lived in India from 563 B.C. to 483 B.C. Known as Siddhartha Gautama in his youth, at age 19 he was a royal heir in India.
Released on 11/11/11, the film, “THRIVE: What On Earth Will It Take?” was an unconventional documentary that lifted the veil on what’s REALLY going on in our world by following the money upstream and uncovering the global consolidation of power in nearly every aspect of our lives.“THRIVE II: This Is What It Takes” Released Globally on September 26, 2020
Heartland Security is the love-based counterpoint to the fear-based context of “Homeland Security.”Both ancient spiritual wisdom and modern “new edge” science point us toward humanity’s next evolutionary understanding that we are all cells in the body of humanity.
