Dr. Michael Lerner on the Essential Shifts

(3 ratings)

After a lifetime on the frontlines of health, Michael sees the vital importance of integrating the insights of psychic research into an expanded understanding of ourselves and our time. He draws Biblical parallels with Old Testament prophets who saw a time of trial for the Jewish people. Michael uses the wisdom from that tradition to draw parallels to the challenges modern humans face on a planetary scale. An integrated paradigm for the future, he believes, would focus on health and the environment, as well as social, racial and economic justice, among other thigns. Modern-day heroes such as Dean Radin, Larry Dossey, and Deepak Chopra are helping to advance a new science that shows our interconnection and it is up to us to create the social justice that is foundational for an enduring shift. Ultimately, Michael believe that even if our times make optimism difficult, we must be hopeful, which is a quality of soul that can empower us in making better choices.
