Humanity Rising livestream

  • Ba and Josette speak on the origins of oppression and what we can do to face this as directly as humanly possible.

    African Wisdom speaks of asili, of the germ of a culture that manifests in every aspect of that culture. Marimba Ani, in Urugu, names the asili of our world as “power-over.” Power-over infects all of us. Once we uncover the oppressor within, and deeply accept that it is part of our evolutionary heritage and therefore lives in each of us, we can engage our calling and bring healing to our world. We have done this painful but liberating and enlightening work of directly experiencing the oppressor within, without judgment.

    Unexpected outcomes, which during our mutual livestream dialogue include:

    Connecting to the oppressor. This can be done through appreciation of and specific care for the unfolding consciousness of children, and of your own consciousness. This approach awakens self-knowledge, seeing and knowing ourselves as we are, without shame, blame, or judgment.

    Insight into the healthiest way to respond to an oppressor and any oppression that is appropriate for you. Our way is to bring forth well-being through the consciousness approach of nurturing the emerging consciousness of children to draw forth well-being. We do not go back to hammer out the wrongs of the past. Rather, we look forward by nurturing our most valuable resource for the future—children. Most importantly, each response brings meaning and empowerment for each person involved, and for all.

    Compassion beyond empathy. Compassion in the sense of insight into the action that brings the greatest well-being without concern for gain or pain. This compassion becomes a way of living and arises in all interactions and circumstances.
