Evolution is Something You Do

I am so lucky to be a teacher of the Evolutionary Enlightenment course from EnlightenNext, because evolution is pushed forward so tangibly from DOING something. And teaching is doing. Last week most of the teachers of the Evolutionary Enlightenment course got together for a training phone call with Jeff Carreira.

As practitioners of Evolutionary Enlightenment we all participate in regular calls where we discuss what the realization that we, as human beings, are participating in a deep-time, deep-space evolutionary event means. A topic like that ultimately brings the best possible responses from us all, but when the EE teachers get together something happens on a whole new level. The reason is because evolution is something you do - not just something you think or talk about.

When we DO things that lead towards more development, and notice at the same time what is happening, the whole event of evolution takes on a deeper meaning for us all. In our last call as teachers this was evident as we started talking about marketing.

We had already challenged our deep assumptions about being a personal entity watching evolution in the training session with Jeff (see Jeff's blog about it here). So when we started talking about marketing we were already experiencing an ecstatic authentic self amongst the group. The more we talked, the more we realized that our marketing efforts were actually evolution in action. Every single person we talked to about Evolutionary Enlightenment was not only a part of the process of our own development in how to talk about the course, but was actually being engaged as an agent in evolution. Whether or not they ended up signing up for the course, the very act of talking with them was pushing the envelope of human consciousness forward. Maybe they would come, maybe they would not come, but now little seeds of the new idea were in their mind and consciousness, and whatever their response to us had been was in our consciousness. That in turn was then shared amongst the group of teachers creating group development.

That realization was a mind blower. It suddenly felt so passionate to be marketing the course for the sake of the marketing itself. Maybe people would come to our course, maybe they wouldn't. But one way or another people had been engaged across all sorts of previous boundaries.

That's pretty amazing when you really think about it. It gives such a poignant and deep meaning to everything we do.

Like, I am sitting here typing this blog. And it is this time right now. You are now reading the blog and it is at whatever time you are in. Not only has something happened for me as a result of typing the blog, but something happens for you as a result of reading it. Maybe you think I'm an idiot, maybe you think I'm smart, Doesn't matter which way because all the same something has been shared.

What an exciting time to be alive to be able to start seeing these things, and join into the process consciously.

Ya Fatah!
