TEDxGoldenGate - Teaching Compassion
Hello compassionistas, This is more news than events although it is an upcoming event in SF. I recently saw this through a friend in Sweden (who is inspired by CAN and what has been done in Seattle and wants to host similar events in Sweden) and was so inspired by their intention, list of speakers and that there is a TEDx focussed so beautifully on Teaching Compassion. They ask a most powerful question: Are we entering into an era of Compassion? Why Teach Compassion?Compassion — the devotion…See More

What does Compassion have to do with Climate Neutrality?
I am unable to sleep because of an injured ankle and the resulting pain, so it has me up pondering the big questions of life and how those seemingly 'big' questions trickle down into the smaller implications of what choices are ahead of us each day and the relationships between everything.
Synergy to me is a key social function that we have yet to fully understand and I believe it is about whole systems design, living in right relationship to the whole, and recognizing the… Continue

Compassion Revisited: The Force of Love is the Force of Total Revolution
"Compassion is a spontaneous movement of
wholeness. It is not a studied decision to help the poor, to be kind to
the unfortunate. Compassion has a tremendous momentum that naturally,
choicelessly moves us to worthy action. It has the force of
intelligence, creativity, and the strength of love. Compassion cannot
be cultivated; it derives neither from intellectual conviction nor from
emotional reaction. It is simply there when the wholeness… Continue

"Imaginal Cells" Global Change Strategy
I'm reading Peter Merry's Imaginal Cells Global Change Strategy and I highly recommend it. Big chunks of his thinking, particularly related to imaginal cells metaphor within networks, have been themes and memes in my own thinking and work for the past 9 years. I love the synthesis and synergy he's done here. Fantastic!

Compassion and the Media - Developing News and Communication Systems that Encourage Greater Compassion
Hello friends,
Why Compassion and Media? I believe these two words have much in common and are intimately bound together because media in the broadest sense is all about how we communicate, what stories we choose to communicate, and the larger story-field from which we draw inspiration. And compassion is a way of relating that impacts all areas of our life, including the sector of Media & Communications.
