Ralph Metzner on the Essential Shifts
Ralph Metzner integrates alchemy, shamanism, and philosophy in this wide-ranging discussion of the most important shifts of our time, covering terrain from the task of integrating East, West, North, and South, to creating a single world democratic system with decentralized power. Metzner shows how worldviews are being forced to shift beyond those of modern Western science, which is quickly revealing the limits of its power. The emerging worldview is based on systems theory and a science of interconnectedness. The old worldview is beginning to trigger a global collapse that will prepare the way for an ecologically sustainable and spiritually fulfilling future. Topics include post-capitalist systems of power, non-violence, and the role of consciousness-expanding practices.
