This sounds fantastic! From https://www.findhorn.org/programmes/530/#.VCKLkhapTas
Although the summit is fully booked with a long waiting list, New Story Hub, a fledgling resource centre, offers a number of other ways for you to participate in this exciting event.
We are inviting people to group together to form Summit Hubs, to join us online in the first three days and then to create their own summit.
Or join us as an individual online during the event via Findhorn Live.
You can also post on our facebook page, subscribe to our youtube channel and follow us on twitter. In this way we can all generate a powerful event, building practical foundations reaching far into the future.
New Story Summit
Inspiring Pathways for our Planetary Future
Special Event
27 September – 3 October 2014
For people, generally, their story of the universe and the human role in the universe is their primary source of intelligibility and value. The deepest crises experienced by any society are those moments of change when the story becomes inadequate for meeting the survival demands of a present situation.
As we change our story, we change our world.
We humans find our way by story. Our stories shape us, hold us and give meaning to our lives. Every so often it becomes clear that a prevailing story is no longer serving. Now is such a time.
If we do not create a positive, realistic picture of the future, we will not live into it.
Our modern world faces unprecedented challenges and the increasing fragility of once robust systems – social, economic, religious, political and ecological. This visibly accelerating disintegration of the story lived since the industrial revolution can feel overwhelming. Caught in this apparent helplessness, contemporary narratives of the future oscillate between blind denial and apocalyptic devastation. Neither will help us live the transformational Great Turning that is still – though maybe only just – within our grasp.
Our Summit is designed to support the emergence of a coherent new story for humanity and to produce practical, collaborative ways to live this new story.
This Summit is our call to people of all ages and cultures:
- those already living their edge of a new story
- those who have carried the best of the old story forward, the ancient and indigenous wisdom
- those investigating threads of possibility
- those seeking inspiration and insight as to what could be: to gather with open hearts and minds to open to and experience what we can co-create together.
