we know ourselves afresh as beings of creative, world-forming information. This is way beyond the fluffy new-age notion of “we are all energy”. For me, this is where Integral Consciousness truly lies, in recognising how the interior and the exterior realities connect, both individually and collectively. All four quadrants are aspects of the universal “mind” – choices about our perspective, and which parts of the information we are engaging with.

nity. The blinders concerning the realities of money, though, must be removed if human civilization is ever to rise beyond wasting our greatest wealth which is all life on our shared planet, and the realization of our oneness with each other and all natural life on our planet.
