The Upshift: The Path to Healing and Evolution on Planet Earth

We live at a historic turning point. The global crisis from which we are emerging is an unique opportunity: it holds vital lessons for our lives and for our future. It makes clear that we are all in the same boat—we are one people with one destiny. But it also makes clear that our boat is unstable and in urgent need of repair, indeed, of redesign. The political and the business communities are now waking up to the need for serious change, but creating a fundamentally new world doesn’t depend on political and business people, but on the will and the vision of the bulk of the human population—on people like you and me. Do we understand what is at stake, and what it is that we can do about it? Given that the aftermath of a crisis offers the opportunity to create a new world, understanding the nature of the world we could create is crucial. Whether or not we seize the opportunity to create it decides whether we shift up to a sustainable and life-friendly sphere of life, or drift down to growing and ultimately terminal conflict and chaos. In the last count, it decides the destiny of the human species on earth. Creating a world in which we live in harmony with each other and with life on the planet is feasible. But to create it we must know how to live more wisely in our own life, right here and now. This is the task and the opportunity we discuss in this book. Waking up and acting on it is in our own vital and immediate interest. The Upshift is to help you meet the challenge of our epoch. It is a handbook for urgent action—for wiser living by you and by me, and by all conscious and ethical people in the womb of a delicately balanced web of life on our precious home planet.

How We Can Build a Better World: The Worldshift Manual: The Crisis Is Our Opportunity

We are in the midst of a global crisis. This is not just danger: it is opportunity-a golden opportunity. It is the opportunity to build a new world. To sit with folded hands, waiting for the crisis to take its course is to entrust our destiny to the vagaries of fortune. To go back to where we were is not advisable, and may not even be possible. But attempting to go forward makes sense: it is a realistic objective. The outcome of the crisis is not foreclosed; it is sensitive to our perceptions, values, and aspirations. If we wake up and act, the global crisis will prove to be a blessing in disguise. We have to cope with its dangers, but can and must seize the opportunity it offers. It is the opportunity to liberate ourselves from the shackles of the past and build a better world. How We Can Build a Better World is a practical guide for building a better world. This is a realistic objective because, with the awakening catalyzed by the global crisis, we can now change the world. This manual shows how we can change it effectively, and for the better.

Reconnecting to the Source: The New Science of Spiritual Experience, How It Can Change You, and How

Reconnecting to the Source is a powerful new book on the science of spiritual experience by Dr. Ervin Laszlo. A well-known figure in the fields of new science, consciousness, and spirituality, Dr. Laszlo has inspired some of today's most important figures in science and philosophy. In Reconnecting to the Source he unpacks the science behind spiritual experience, investigating the ways in which we can access realms of experience beyond the everyday. It is in these moments, when our conscious minds are in contact or perhaps even overridden by our unconscious selves, that we can explore the depths of spiritual meaning. In addition to a foreword by Deepak Chopra, the book includes new, never before published contributions from a long list of well-known writers and public figures-including Jane Goodall, Barbara Marx Hubbard, Zhi-Gang Sha, Gregg Braden, and many more. Each contributor has written about a unique spiritual experience of their own, sharing moments in their lives that are outside of the boundaries of the usual and reflecting on the importance of these moments. This revolutionary and powerful book will challenge you to reconsider the boundaries of our own experience and change how we look at the world around us.

Information Medicine: The Revolutionary Cell-Reprogramming Discovery that Reverses Cancer and Degene

A look at the future of medicine based on cutting-edge stem cell research • Shares Dr. Biava's groundbreaking research on stem cell differentiation stage factors (SCDSFs) as a cellular "reprogramming" treatment for cancer and other degenerative diseases • Explains how SCDSFs restore communication between cells and the epigenetic code, the information that programs the normal function and growth of every living cell • Explores how the universe operates like a cosmic information-network and how this new scientific worldview will shape the future of healing and medicine The universe is not a mechanical system of matter--it operates like a cosmic network that runs on and is connected by information. Information "in-forms" and underlies all of the physical world, including the human body. In this book, Pier Mario Biava, M.D., and Ervin Laszlo, Ph.D., show how this "information" worldview can be applied to healing and medicine and, specifically, how it underlies a revolutionary new approach to cancer and disease treatment, one that works directly with the epigenetic code--the information that programs the function and growth of every living cell. The authors explain how tumor growth and cellular dysfunction are manifestations of disconnections in the information network of an organism. Unveiling Dr. Biava's groundbreaking research on stem cell differentiation stage factors (SCDSFs), they explain how SCDSFs work directly as epigenetic regulators to reconnect aberrant cells to the body's information network and reset them to their original function--in the case of cancer cells transforming them from malignant to benign, from dysfunction back to normalcy and health. Dr. Biava's research on SCDSFs--derived from Zebrafish embryos, which have a very high percentage of proteins identical with those of human beings--has shown good success in reprogramming and inhibiting cancer cells in clinical trials with patients with advanced liver cancer, as well as success in in vitro studies with 7 different human tumor lines. SCDSFs have also shown promise in the treatment of chronic diseases such as psoriasis and neurodegenerative diseases. This research will also allow the development of new treatments for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and multiple sclerosis. Unveiling the holistic future of medicine, the authors show how we will no longer need to approach the treatment of cancer and other degenerative diseases as a "fight," but as a restoration of our cells' original programming. With the advent of Information Medicine, we now have the power to program ourselves to heal.

The Intelligence of the Cosmos: Why Are We Here? New Answers from the Frontiers of Science

From the cutting edge of science and living spirituality: a guide to understanding our identity and purpose in the world • Outlines the new understanding of matter and mind coming to light at the cutting edge of physics and consciousness research • Explains how we can evolve consciously, become connected with each other, and flourish on this planet • Includes contributions from Maria Sagi, Kingsley L. Dennis, Emanuel Kuntzelman, Dawna Jones, Shamik Desai, Garry Jacobs, and John R. Audette For the outdated mainstream paradigm the world is a giant mechanism functioning in accordance with known and knowable laws and regularities. The new paradigm emerging in science offers a different concept: The world is an interconnected, coherent whole, and it is informed by a cosmic intelligence. This is not a finite, mechanistic-material world. It is a consciousness-infused whole-system world. We are conscious beings who emerge and co-evolve as complex, cosmic-intelligence in-formed vibrations in the Akashic Field of the universe. Ervin Laszlo and his collaborators from the forefront of science, cosmology, and spirituality show how the re-discovery of who we are and why we are here integrates seamlessly with the wisdom traditions as well as with the new emerging worldview in the sciences, revealing a way forward for humanity on this planet. They explain how we have reached a point of critical incoherence and tell us that to save ourselves, our environment, and society, we need a critical mass of people to consciously evolve a new thinking. Offering a guidepost to orient this evolution, Laszlo examines the nature of consciousness in the universe, showing how our bodies and minds act as transmitters of consciousness from the intelligence of the cosmos and how understanding science's new concept of the world enables us to re-discover our identity and our purpose in our world. With bold vision and forward thinking, Laszlo and his contributors Maria Sagi, Kingsley L. Dennis, Emanuel Kuntzelman, Dawna Jones, Shamik Desai, Garry Jacobs, and John R. Audette outline the new idea of the world and of ourselves in the world. They help us discover how we can overcome these divisive times and blossom into a new era of peace, coherence, connection, and global wellbeing.
