A new phase is on the horizon: the spiritual, universal or cosmic phase, our transcendence into the higher, perhaps ultimate attempt at full comprehension of our Earthly home and of all life on it. It will mean the recognition of planet Earth and of life, especially human life as evolutionary cosmic phenomena; the search of what cosmos or God has in mind for us; the proper education, information and fulfillment of humans admitted to the miracle of life; our peace, harmony, union and cooperation with each other, with the our with other life forms, with the heavens, with the past, present and future in the eternal stream of time; and the right rules of conduct and institutions to make this planet a showcase in the universe, a cosmic success - Robert Muller
A new emergent ?Turquoise? worldview could be summed up as including: perceiving world as delicately balanced system of forces in jeopardy at humanity?s hands; self aspart of a larger, conscious whole; emergent selfless motivation, in order that all can thrive; experiential ?collective individualism?, blending and harmonising; expanded mind capacity; deep intuition; macromanaging; acting together for significant, big picture impacts for the good of all...the synergy of all life forms and forces; synthesis oriented - Dr. Don Beck http://www.humanemergence.org/home.html
