On ​The True Meaning of Sustainability

Picture
Sustainability is the ability of something (or someone) to sustain itself.   The World Commission on Environment and Development defined the concept of sustainable development as development “that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”, and at the same time takes into account the needs of the poor in the developing world. 

However, the world's persisting problems -- the conflicts, the alarming degradation of nature and of our health, now even further exacerbated by the modern invisible threats posed by EMF radiation and pollution -- all are a testimony to the outright disregard of the existing system to sustain life. They are a testimony to the fact that lopsided approaches which only take consumerist economic indicators as a measure of "development” and well-being, have proven faulty. 

It is not sufficient to only focus on socioeconomic, intellectual, and technological aspects of human development. The inner dimensions of mental and emotional health as well as character and ethical development along with the expression of one's full potential as a human being, require just as much focus.  It is only each one of us individually that can give this focus to ourselves, because clearly the modern globalist socio-economic system we live isn't designed to support this -- quite on the contrary, it is designed to shape us into conformity with a view to perpetuate it.


Development should be measured by the degree humankind’s shared aspirations are fulfilled: peace, joy, freedom, love, health, abundance, and the promise of safely inhabiting this planet for millennia to come. "Development" takes place when the individual awakens to their unique talent, gift, passion, joy, and responsibility.  “Development" can be "sustainable" only if it translates into the integration of a heightened awareness of self, others, the environment, and one's connection to the whole into everyday living, as a lifestyle.

Positive change takes place when individuals become more conscious and empowered, 
reclaim their responsibility (=ability to respond) and health at all levels, find their joy, and live a compassionate and fearless life. From this state they can positively influence others - and ultimately the "collective" - through their living example. The foundation for major social, political, economic, and spiritual change ultimately always rests in the single individual. The widespread corruption, injustice, abuse and inequality we see everywhere are an indication of how deeply we have forgotten--as individuals--our connection to the whole. 

My passion is to assist individuals to achieve a state of understanding, health and growth at all levels that helps them thrive. Thriving individuals are what make for thriving families, communities, and societies. 

I seek to join with others in catalyzing positive change from the inside-out and look forward to assisting groups and communities in their efforts towards self-reliance, wholesomeness, and sustainability at all levels.
