Change Starts
from the Inside.
All people are capable of evolving to access deeper levels of love, joy, peace and freedom, and of connecting with each other, with nature, and with their authentic selves. As their consciousness evolves, people can connect more deeply, live their lives more fully, and share their unique gifts with the world more wisely and compassionately.
We dedicate our financial and human capital to both for-profit and not-for-profit initiatives that support the evolution of consciousness.
We aspire to be one of the catalyzers of a movement that will positively and materially impact the lives of billions of people in the span of one generation.
Why Consciousness?
There is still so much suffering on this planet: not only from external circumstances such as wars, hunger, disease, inequality, and environmental degradation, but also from issues internal to the human soul. Despite rising material comfort, many people today feel just as lonely, purposeless, fearful or angry as ever.
A comprehensive solution to making the world a better place would have to address both external and internal dimensions of suffering.
In the process of looking for such a solution we have made two important observations:
- Internal suffering begets external suffering in a variety of ways. Wars are started by people who are fearful and angry. People with wealth and power can also feel alienated and disconnected. They suffer themselves and lack access to compassion for others, leading to a reluctance to care for those who are less fortunate and for our planet itself.
- Internal suffering can be released. All human beings have the potential to live lives full of love, joy, peace and freedom. All are capable of evolving their consciousness and thriving. All of us can make a shift from ignorance and prejudice to truth and wisdom, from fear and pain to love and joy. As our consciousness evolves, we naturally feel deep compassion for the suffering of others and a desire to take action to address it.
Hence, by devoting our efforts and resources to support the evolution of consciousness, we will not only address internal causes of suffering but also unleash the compassion and creativity needed to solve a variety of external challenges that plague our planet.
Some of the people touched by our efforts will choose to support others in evolving their consciousness, with a potential for exponential growth. We envision that the resulting ripple effect will turn into a massive, diverse movement that will lead to a material positive impact on the lives of billions of people in the span of one generation.
