How does the radical shift beyond a life rooted in the habitual egoic patterns of the past–into a life propelled by the positive, conscious stance of the evolutionary self– really change things day-to-day?
With access to the evolutionary self, what will you be able to do? And how will things be different?
1. Turn glimpses of possibility and clarity into lasting change and sustained momentum, with motivation that doesn’t falter
One of the universal challenges on the path of spiritual development and personal growth is converting our insights into lasting results. Despite hard work, glimmers of tremendous potential, and deepening awareness–and even periods of significant progress–many of us are frustrated by our tendency to slide back into old patterns.This waning of consistency and commitment is an inevitable byproduct of the limitations our unevolved nature–inherited from our ancient animal past. But when we are able to access the evolutionary self, we discover resources of will and motivation that are enduring and powerful enough to sustain our practices, truly embody new possibilities, and move us to act on what really matters.Imagine tapping into a source of inspiration and motivation that so powerfully transcends the drives of the small self that you just can’t go back to the way things have been. With a larger and more compelling perspective, we are reliably and consciously spurred to apply what we learn in our most inspired moments.
The result: an active, newfound robustness and rigor in our commitment to our spiritual practices, our lives, and our highest aspirations in the world.
2. Create deeper, more authentic relationships, and find community with others who share your values and aspirations
Stepping up to trailblaze meaningful change in the world and pioneer a new way of being human is an exciting and enlivening prospect, but it can also be lonely out on the leading edge. And unless we surround ourselves with others who share our highest values and aspirations, we almost inevitably find ourselves battling a kind of invisible but powerful social gravity that draws us back into the unenlightened, unevolved “world mind” we’re trying to break free from.That’s where evolutionary partnership with kindred spirits becomes essential. One of the most consistent forms of feedback we receive from course graduates is gratitude for the supportive context provided by the course, and for deeply connected friendships and partnerships that continue long after the program ends.In addition to support, we stand in a moment of extraordinary evolutionary potential regarding how to cooperate and unite to solve problems. The greatest challenges of our time will not be solved merely by separate individuals, but an enlightened collective. As an evolutionary, you can both give and receive in this emerging model of high-level conscious collaboration.
3. Discover a spiritual practice that is relevant to our modern world and can be lived 24/7
Many people’s spiritual longings are scarcely fulfilled by a half-hour-a-day meditation practice, and we wonder how to live spiritually when life’s demands don’t allow for extended retreats and pilgrimages.And although traditional paths and practices have helped humans all along, they’re reaching their limitations, having been created for life in an ancient world that has little in common with today’s environment.Evolutionary spirituality is relevant to the complexities and challenges of modern life–an engaged, wholistic approach that turns everyday life into a spiritual practice, 24/7. We don’t sequester ourselves to prepare for a later return to living. It’s evolving human nature–in action.
When we step into the evolutionary impulse, conscious living is the practice–how we relate to our experiences, situations, and other people. The result is a practical, grounded spirituality that has a far greater impact on yourself and the world–and a daily life infused with meaning and purpose.
