Papillon Human Potential - Global Potential

A Vibrant Ecosystem

If we're going to look at the potential for us humans it stands to reason that we also look at the potential for our home, the planet.

One day, whilst watching the Deepak Chopra 'Peace Is the Way' flash presentation by the Wild Divine Team, it struck me that we humans may not have yet imagined the vibrancy of our ecoystem as it can be at its fullest and most magestic.

Albeit an animated presentation, the imagery and sound in the ' Way of Peace' flash gives a sense of an ecosystem which can radiate a powerful vibration that enriches the soul. If you watch the flash you may get a sense of what I mean.

We assume that, our current level of pollution aside, the vibrancy of the planet is as it was in the past, yet, a few hundred years ago, our country alone was a vibrant, rich forest - a squirrel could travel from one end to the other without touching the floor. And so the energy, the feel and the sense of wellbeing derived from that environment would, I suspect, have been much more rich, vibrant and life-giving, and therefore much more pleasant, to the point that if we were to experience it now it may well be almost overwhelmingly inspiring.

This is where the notion of human potential comes in, as opposed to receiving the feedback we get about our planetary home from a position of fear. We ask ourselves, 'What opportunities are there for us that we have previously been missing?', in this instance, in respect of our planet and our enjoyment and appreciation of the ecosystem.

So the underlying 'true' ecosystem of this planet may be much more inspiring and life-enriching than we may have imagined. Add to that the possibility of the future emergence of an enlightened culture and humanity which learns the wisdom and self-respect of treating the planet with respect, and thus eventually reversing the current pollution, and the future vibrancy of this planet could actually be something we have yet to be able to really imagine or get a feel for.

"The truth is, the way we treat the Earth is the
way we treat ourselves." - Shirlie Roden

And throw in the combination of a new awareness of the power of consciousness, and the ability of each individual to 'see' and appreciate the environment of the physical world with more depth than before, and, one way or another, the potential for the pleasure and enjoyment of our experience of our ecosystem and of our environment begins to know no bounds...
