ComPassion
• Compassion is not a relation between a person in pain and the comforter, but between two people of equal rank. We can be Present in others’ dark places, if and when we
have already „ burnt ours”, ie. We have become the „
wounded healer”. We need to fully experience all that connects us within the human experience. (Christ as Jesus ? ) PemaChödrön

„ I think there are good reasons for suggesting that the modern age has ended. Today, many things indicate that we are going thorough a transitional period, when it seems that something is on the way out and something else is painfully being born. It is as if something were crumbling, decaying, and exhausting itself, while something else, still indistinct, were arising from the rubble.” (1994)
Transcending our selves
In this postmodern world, cultural conflicts are becoming more dangerous than any time in history. A new model of coexistence is needed, based on man's transcending himself.

Knowledge
“ Knowledge is coordinated action
emerging from consensus.
Knowledge is not an object or data
you can own, it is a process
inspiring participation. “ (Humberto Maturana)

The New Culture is a culture of the heart, which leads
people to fraternization, to brotherly lives. Love will
manifest itself through the Heart. In the old Life Love
started with joy, and ended with sorrow. In the new
Life, however, Love starts with sorrow and ends with
joy. Beinsa Douno

„It seems that the only real sustainable
advantage in our fast changing world
depends on how quick and deep our
learning can be in organisations and
in the whole of society.”P.Senge,
Learning
• Is not to aquire information on what we already know,
• Not even to master the skills of how to do
It means to create a generative space for the unknown to emerge. Learning is sweaming in the flow of meaning.

Love and Understanding be made real in living In one sheet of paper we see everything else, the cloud, the forest, the logger. I am, therefore you are. You are, therefore I am. ( Ubuntu) . We interare.
Do not try to save the whole world or do anything grandiose. Instead, create a clearing in the dense forest of your life and wait there patiently, until the song that is your life falls into your own cupped hands and you recognize and greet it. Only then will you know how to give yourself to this world so worthy of rescue.
Martha Postlewaite
God is Love in Action
head through the heart into the hands
will is powerful action imbued and tendered by loving understanding
