Barbara Marx Hubbard has been an inspirational visionary to many of us in Common Ground...most recently she inspired a large gathering at Haverford College.
This short film is Part I of her documentary series exploring "Conscious Evolution." It posits the theory that we are on the brink of a quantum leap, as humans. "If we are able to integrate newly emergent scientific, social and spiritual capacities, we could transform ourselves to move beyond our current global crisis to a magnificent future equal to our vast potential...that we need to 'evolve or die.'"What does it all mean? Come explore some of these exciting ideas with us!
