The Future of the Future

By Laurence De Rusha

A revolution in the materialistic, separatist worldview must happen for the planet to survive. But here is the astonishing part: If there was just one thing I could tell you about living on this planet, knowing that if you understood it, it would be enough to change life forever, I would ask you to realize that you have the power to change the world!

In this book is a stunning new scientific technique to shift your consciousness and change your life while profoundly influencing positive planetary change. This Future of the Future process utilizes the actual system the mind/brain and quantum field uses to create.

Proven in classroom experiments, workshops and one-on-one work over five years. I have taught this process to many people over the years and it is powerful and brings the results.

Foreword

It is a remarkable paradox that, at the pinnacle of human material and technical achievement, we find ourselves anxiety-ridden, prone to depression, worried about how others see us, unsure of our friendships, driven to consume and with little or no community life. Lacking the relaxed social contact and emotional satisfaction we all need, we seek comfort in over-eating, obsessive shopping and spending, or become prey to excessive alcohol, psychoactive medicines and illegal drugs. (Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett; 2010)

Apprehension about the future is also widespread these days. Bob Dylan’s lyric, The times they are a-changin’, fits this remarkable period we are living into. Everywhere in the national media we see economic, political, and ecological firestorms. Fueled by unlimited consumption, consumerism, competi-tion, colonization, and tribalism, these wildfires are burning out of control. Yet these are the outer symptoms of something much deeper. Beneath all of this unrest, instability, and suffering is the deep disconnection of humanity from its spiritual essence.

Other books explore in depth all the ingredients contributing to our global crises, and still others give theories on how they developed. (You can find some of these books in the Suggested Reading section.)

Although this book does describe, in brief, the crisis-driven revolution of an old worldview, my purpose is learning to reconnect and participate in a positive personal and global shift. Our new outer world will be built on our inner awakening and a realization of our universal interconnectedness.

Now that you have read this far, you likely relate to what I have said and feel something profound is happening on our planet and wish to do something about it. And, like me, you might question, What can I do? I am only one person. If you and others use this old excuse, nothing will happen. But if each of us does the work, we start the global shift.

To fully participate in facilitating such a powerful and positive change that is needed, you must go beyond superficial optimism.

Making a shift in your worldview, healing any disconnections, and positively seeding consciousness ultimately lead to shifts in the way you act, and this impacts the outer world. In other words, as you begin to shift yourself, the old materialist worldview will give way to a new worldview. Multiplied by millions, your part equals global shift!

New Interconnected Worldview

The new worldview I am suggesting is actually a return to the values of many early indigenous and spiritual cultures, but it is supported by modern science. There is a deep understanding in these cultures of the interdependence of everything. Any separation between us and nature is a mirage manufactured by our ego. According to the 5,000-year-old Hindu sacred texts (vedas), we are all interconnected, like cells in the body.

Before we go further, let’s define some of our terms.

Ego: the sense that I exist as a separate being. When the body breathes, the mind says, I am breathing. Ego likes labels and likes having a name—Larry, Marigene, etc. Whereas mind is very daring, ego is very much afraid.

Mind: a tool of consciousness and our individual use of the Universal Mind.

Universal Mind: the collective unconscious in contrast to a personal unconscious. Carl Jung’s concept of the collective unconscious defines it as universal and impersonal in nature and identical in all individuals. This collective unconscious does not develop individually but is preexisting in all and existent in all things. It is a compendium of all knowledge, but it is nonlocal, encoded in a nonphysical plane of existence.

Our worldview can be colored by our ego, the mind, and even Universal Mind. But if we look for evidence we will find that
