What HAS changed - is our understanding of
the world - we don't have to rely simply on the
wisdom of our own brain - we have language -
we have literature and now we have computers -
and that links us ALL together - that gives us the
wisdom of all those who have gone before ...
as Michael Mosley so eloquently concluded at the end of the BBC Series
The Story of Science: Power Proof and Passion - having just referred to
Santiago Ramon y Cajal's utilisation of the power of visual thinking -
through his love of art and photography - to ponder the question
WHAT makes the brain work - and thence assume the task of revealing
the processes by which the communications networks inside our heads
actually WORK !!! ...

and I would say -
When a caterpillar wants to FLY it changes into a butterfly - unlike
the caterpillar when our species decided that it wanted to fly we did
not need to change our bodies - we just invented an aircraft as a
result of our belief system that it IS through our minds that we
metamorphose. THIS IS how we change our way of life - and have
the confidence to take appropriate action in response to our
own responsibility for passing the torch to future generations.
“The population undergoing drastic change is a population
of misfits, and misfits live and breathe in an atmosphere of
passion and imbalance, explosive and hungry for action.”
Eric Hoffer in The Ordeal of Change
The Catalysts for Change map (searchlightcatalysts.org) identifies
four key catalysts: new evidence, new capacities, new rules, and
new stories. For each of these catalysts, the map highlights several
action zones and a core challenge, as well as signals of innovation
and change drawn from the Searchlight newsletters. In converting
this map into a game, the Rockefeller Foundation sought to support
a worldwide conversation about the ways that the four catalysts
could serve as a starting place for innovative practices in global
development and social change.
Global connectivity, smart machines, and new media are just some
of the drivers reshaping how we think about work, what constitutes
work, and the skills we will need to be productive contributors in
the future. THIS REPORT analyzes key drivers that will reshape the
landscape of work and identifies key work skills needed in the next
10 years.
It does not consider what will be the jobs of the future.
Many studies have tried to predict specific job categories and labor
requirements. Consistently over the years, however, it has been
shown that such predictions are difficult and many of the past
predictions have been proven wrong.
Rather than focusing on future jobs, this report looks at -
future work skills—proficiencies and abilities
required across different jobs and work settings.

TIME - as Professor Brian Cox has suggested in the
Wonders of Life - for the scientific community to
explain the spirituality which forms the basis of
each and everyone of our belief systems.
THE human[KIND] of Spaceship Earth in Freespace 4D™ can n•O•w
embark on a new collective relationship with NATURE, which establishes
a timeless zone for communication and commerce in4D by realising
the dream of a common language in4D and THE whole IDEA is to
reclaim y[our] species lost relationship, as a constituent component of
NATURE, through a permanent manifestation of the original concept of

“We don't have to engage in grand, heroic actions to participate in the process of change.
Small acts, when multiplied by millions of people, can transform the world.” -Howard Zinn
What IS changing and continues increasingly to change - IS - as Brian Cox has recently stated -
THE need for science and scientists to accept the responsibility to explain spirituality !!!
When the time comes for change, it would appear that our species natural inclination is always
to move to the West regardless of which direction we set out from in the first instance.
Change is a constant in today's world. Technology is accelerating, globalization is making the world more and more complex, and the pace of life seems to be speeding up every day. While many popular forms of contemporary spirituality offer ways to feel better in the face of overwhelming change - to discover greater equanimity, detachment, or compassion - Andrew Cohen says that change is not something to be avoided, or merely tolerated, but an essential aspect of reality that needs to be consciously embraced.
Change is in fact the spiritual essence of life itself and the source of a new enlightenment.
Through Cohen’s five fundamental tenets for living an enlightened life, Evolutionary Enlightenment empowers you to wholeheartedly participate in the process of change as your own spiritual practice. In doing so, you can not only makes deep sense of life today; but you’ll discover how you can play an active role in shaping the world of tomorrow.
“Evolutionary Enlightenment shows us how—not in some future time but now—each of us can respond to the evolutionary impulse seeking to emerge in, through, and as every human being, birthing an enlightened society.”
—Michael Bernard Beckwith, author of Spiritual Liberation
We are aware of the imagined limitations that are continually imposed upon the collective. However, there are those like yourself who are moving through these limitations recognizing they are just false beliefs that have been handed down from generation to generation.
This is a TIME of great and wonderful change in what was once a mystery and is now being understood. When you honour your magnificence, when you stretch the imagined boundaries of you are and recognize what you can create or call forth, you truly begin to realize that you are powerful beyond measure.
Nothing is more fascinating to us than, well, us.
Where did we come from? What makes us human?
An explosion of recent discoveries sheds light on these questions, and NOVA's comprehensive, three-part special, "Becoming Human," examines what the latest scientific research reveals about our hominid relatives—putting together the pieces of our human past and transforming our understanding of our earliest ancestors.
Featuring interviews with world-renowned scientists, each hour unfolds with a CSI-like forensic investigation into the life and death of a specific hominid ancestor. The programs were shot "in the trenches" where discoveries were unearthed throughout Africa and Europe. Dry bones spring back to life with stunning computer-generated animation and prosthetics. Fossils not only give us clues to what early hominids looked like, but, with the aid of ingenious new lab techniques, how they lived and how we became the creative, thinking humans of today.
Rick Potts, a paleo-anthropologist at the Smithsonian Institution, sees evidence that early humans were adapted to change itself, specifically the frequent and severe environmental changes that occurred in Africa and elsewhere beginning around 800,000 years ago.
