A New Look as Consciousness

In a recent post, I described how new theories of consciousness explain how complex synergistic interactions among like minded people arise from quantum activities embedded in the fine scale structure of the universe. The emergent manifestations from these interactions often appear as if by accident or coincidence rather than design. Yet designed they most certainly are. 

Such "Connectional Intelligence," as Dhawan and Joni's call it in their new book, "Get Big Things Done: The Power of Connectional Intelligence gives rise to synergistic interactions that produce outcomes far greater than one mind could dream of and their manifestations have a long term positive impact on ourselves and our planet. In Open Source Communities, people work a lot harder on opportunities which make life better for themselves and their communities. They willingly engage their potential, their talent and their skills by activating their minds thinking, their heart’s feeling and their body’s sensing. Through the skillful Intentionality, these synergistic communities possess a common sense of purpose and values which others willingly buy into and through a paradoxical blend of personal humility and professional skill, they focus the Attention of others on what could, should and will be required to make their Intention manifest through maintaining a healthy balance of randomness with predictability.

Being embedded in the fine scale structure of the universe such synergistic creativity is an evolving expression of a universe in the process of awakening. After all, each one of us is a natural expression of universal potential seeking wholeness, preciousness and freshness. We achieve this through continuous pursuit of our life’s mission, which is always and in all ways welcomed by the unbounded possibilities existing in our quantum universe of pure consciousness. According to the Buddha, this impulse to awaken is inherent in all manifestations – it’s all “Buddha nature.” The universe’s potential for awakening can be understood by consciousness – the most highly evolved expression of our universe’s energy.
