“There can be only one permanent revolution — a moral one; the regeneration of the inner man. How is this revolution to take place? Nobody knows how it will take place in humanity, but every man feels it clearly in himself. And yet in our world, everybody thinks of changing humanity, and nobody thinks of changing himself.” - Leo Tolstoy
Is it at all possible to live in peace? Politicians talk about it, leaders of religions, institutions and foundations talk about it, but the world is not at peace. We are not just talking about the pandemic or the war in Ukraine. Notice that most of our designs are extensions of war; let it be media campaigns that ‘fight’ for your attention, only to make you feel “fearful of missing out/not being good enough” intentionally, or business models that extract from nature and local communities, prioritising profits over wellbeing.
Can you see the invisible codes of systems of war creeping on your screens as notifications, on your plates as processed food and even circulating in you at any given moment, in the language you use to talk to yourself?
Peace is necessary to grow as humanity and flower new futures. We need peace now.
But first, we need to understand peace; freedom between two wars, between two rows, between two problems, or a sense of physical relaxation - that is not peace. Peace is something much more fundamental, much deeper than the superficial freedom that one has, or thinks one has.
Peace starts from within. Systems of Peace are first to be created in your systems of thinking and feeling.
Is it difficult to grasp this thought?
Let’s go on a little journey together and explore this for a moment…
How do you feel reading headlines such as Big oil’s quarterly profits hit £50bn as UK braces for even higher energy bills?
Do you think: “Well done, capitalism works and rewards the ones who take the risks?”
Or do you rather feel with the ones who will suffer the ‘unintended’ consequences of the system we are in?
Do you feel inspired when you read stories of people who are not waiting till solutions will be offered to them and make their own decisions?: “I sold the rights to my Groove Armada songs to buy a farm – now I hope to revolutionise food production.”
How do you feel when an artist like Kendrick Lamar can access and share his own pain and vulnerability in a public way on his latest album?
Do you feel the courage to move beyond the current systems?
“Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.” ― Siddhārtha Gautama
It’s all about how you feel.
Now take a deep breath.
Please sit back, feel into the examples above, and check in with yourself.
Notice how you feel about yourself and how you respond to situations. Be aware; are you judging yourself or observing with curiosity? Are you allowing new learning to emerge within you or are you fighting with what you read to defend your precious opinions?
The paradigm shift is the understanding of polarities we all contain, myriad, often dynamic within ourselves. Once we understand these energies, conditioning and patterns and we can look for ways to liberate ourselves to find harmony within and among us. Only then do we become the ones who can give birth to new leadership models, cultures and economies of peace.
Let’s take responsibility for our precious potential together, on the verge of a huge new paradigm shift where communities & technology (web3), the ideas of regeneration and the quest for inner peace, truth and beauty are at the centre.
We invite you to take a journey in the co-creation of systems of peace with us and be initiated as ambassadors of peace to meet the potential of our society, business and planetary futures.
Let’s remember and grow our connection to each other, and our mother Nature, as leaders of Peace. Let’s dare to change as Putanny Yawanawa, the main female spiritual leader of the Yawanawa tribe suggests: “Let’s be the ones who dare to replace weapons with expressions of love.”
