  • Meryl Nass - Is COVID the New 9/11?

    26 MAY 2021 · Meryl Nass – Is COVID the New 9/11? From “Conspiracy Theory” To Con’s Piracy Reality Disclaimer: The views expressed on this show are those of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of OMTimes Media. Aired Tuesday, May 25, 2021 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST Interview with M.D. and Vaccine Expert Meryl Nass “Call me a tie-dyed-in-the-wool optimystic, but I believe we can achieve herd immunity without unheard of impunity.” — Swami Beyondananda In 2004, the renowned theologian and philosopher David Ray Griffin published a book called The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9/11. He was referring to a document released in 1997 by neoconservative think-tank, Project For A New American Century (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_for_the_New_American_Century) called Statement of Principles, Rebuilding America’s Defenses/. The document declared that to mobilize public opinion to support America’s 21st century military agenda, a “New Pearl Harbor” would be needed. Griffin (https://bohemian.com/unquestioned-answers-1/) and numerous other “coincidence theorists” noted how conveniently the 9/11 attacks were used to justify the War on Terror, the Afghanistan invasion and Iraq War that have become the Forever War, with no end in sight. It also produced the so-called Patriot Act, which has led to the routine, thorough surveillance of American citizens that we have been asked to accept as “the new normal.” Well folks, there is now a NEW “new normal” thanks to the current COVID crisis, that seeks to install more surveillance and more encroachment of natural rights and human liberties. Our guest this week, is MD and vaccine expert Dr. Meryl Nass. She, along with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. of Children’s Health Defense, has produced a well-researched – and frightening – document that offers damning evidence that effective early treatments for COVID-19 were intentionally withheld so that vaccines could be fast-tracked without trials as emergency measures. Given how much we heard about how Donald Trump’s failure to handle the crisis and how many lives were lost as a result, it may be that many, many more lives were lost because these treatments were withheld. Is this conspiracy theory or con’s piracy reality? Is there a smoking gun, and if so, what can be done about it? Meryl Nass is on the front lines in this battle over – well, over which reality prevails. Meryl Nass, MD, ABIM, is an internist with special interests in vaccine-induced illnesses, chronic fatigue syndrome, Gulf War illness, fibromyalgia, and toxicology. As a biological warfare epidemiologist, she investigated world’s largest anthrax epizootic, in Zimbabwe, and developed a model for analyzing epidemics to assess whether they are natural or man-made. She is also an expert on Gulf War Syndrome and its relationship to the anthrax vaccine given to troops. She has played a major role in creation of a coalition that has fought the Anthrax Vaccine Immunization Program, and is active in assisting legal teams defending anthrax vaccine refusers and ill service members in the U.S. and Canada.

  • Steve Bhaerman - The Truth Shall Upset You Free

    19 MAY 2021 · Steve Bhaerman – The Truth Shall Upset You Free How And Why America Must Awaken Beyond Woke Disclaimer: The views expressed on this show are those of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of OMTimes Media. Aired Tuesday, May 18, 2021 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST Interview with Wiki Politiki Host Steve Bhaerman “Call me a tie-dyed-in-the-wool optimystic, but I believe we can achieve herd immunity without unheard of impunity.” — Swami Beyondananda This week, we are going to turn the tables – or at least turn the mike. After doing more than 150 interviews on Wiki Politiki over the past three-and-a-half years, I’m putting myself on the other side of the mike, thanks to my colleague and co-heart, Veronica Entwistle, host of Paradigm Shifters Radio. She did an interview with me last month for her show and with her kind permission we are re-running it on my show. I must say that in the time since we launched Wiki Politiki in the fall of 2017, I have learned so much and been so inspired by the evolutionaries and solutionaries I featured, that I wanted to offer a “we are here” assessment of our – you know the word – shituation at this point. I guess this will be our official announcement, but as of July Wiki Politiki will be evolving to a video format, The Wiki Politiki Zoom Room, that will allow for more interactivity and personal contact with our guests. I am so grateful for Chris Buck and the folks at Om Times Radio for hosting us all this time, and I am going to miss that opening gong and OM that begins our show. Before we here more from me, I would like to introduce Veronica Entwistle and Paradigm Shifters. Veronica is an intuitive and energy counselor who specializes in NEAR-LIFE experiences – helping her clients discover universal understandings to help them live more fully in the present time and in her words, “fully harness the potential of your inner-self.” As part of this work, she has been hosting Paradigm Shifters Radio, featuring those ready to shift the prevailing paradigm from dominate-or-be-dominated to thrival for each and all. To hear this her interview with me on the latest in the Great Upwising, please join us this Tuesday, May 18th at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.

  • Dana Ullman - Sociopaths vs. Homeopaths

    12 MAY 2021 · Dana Ullman – Sociopaths vs. Homeopaths The De-Platforming of Natural Medicine Disclaimer: The views expressed on this show are those of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of OMTimes Media. Aired Tuesday, May 11, 2021 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST Interview with Homeopathic Expert and Author Dana Ullman “The body politic has become so inundated with toxic ironies that our skeptic system has overflowed.” — Swami Beyondananda I was thinking of calling this podcast, “First, They Came For the Homeopaths.” Anyone who grew up in the post World War II world is familiar with the confessional quote by German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller: First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. I am deeply saddened to report that we seem to be on a similar track here in “Not-see America.” The COVID crisis and lockdown has been an excellent excuse to censor and de-platform many forms of alternative medicine, particularly those that cannot be owned or controlled by big pharma. This is nothing new. Only now, it has become more blatant. Our guest this week homeopathic expert and author Dana Ullman, will discuss the issue of medical totalitarianism and what we can do about it. He will also reveal some research on what the 1919 pandemic got wrong, and how those misunderstandings are leading to deaths in 2021. He will also talk about a recent article in the San Francisco Chronicle that misquoted him and misrepresented his viewpoint, just so they could make a point about “anti-vaxxers.” Dana Ullman is one of America’s leading advocates for homeopathy. He has authored 10 books, including The Homeopathic Revolution: Why Famous People and Cultural Heroes Choose Homeopathy, Homeopathy A-Z, and he co-authored the bestselling Everybody’s Guide to Homeopathic Medicines. Dana also created an e-course How to Use a Homeopathic Medicine Kit which integrates 80 short videos with his famous e-book that is a continually growing resource to 300+ clinical studies published in peer-review medical journals testing homeopathic medicines.

  • Jack Reed - Do We Need A “Vaccination” Against Deception?

    5 MAY 2021 · Jack Reed – Do We Need A “Vaccination” Against Deception? A Sane and Sacred Community Will Help Us Achieve Herd Immunity Against Unheard of Impunity Disclaimer: The views expressed on this show are those of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of OMTimes Media. Aired Tuesday, May 4, 2021 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST Interview with Global Visionary Jack Reed, Author of The Next Evolution: a Blueprint for Transforming the Planet. “Covering the mouth and nose to slow the spread of a viral disease is one thing. Being forced to cover our eyes and ears to stop the spread of novel viral ideas, that’s something else.” — Swami Beyondananda When Lyndon Johnson was President, there was a popular riddle. How can you tell when the President is telling the truth? When he wiggles his ears, he is telling the truth. When he scratches his nose, he is telling the truth. When he rubs is eyes, he is telling the truth. When he opens his mouth … he is lying. We the people have been acculturated to being lied to by politicians, and now it is becoming clear that it’s not just the politicians – it’s the entire political system, including the corporate media – that is lying to us. Ever since the Jonestown massacre more than 40 years ago, the term “drink the Kool-Aid” has been used to describe weapons of mass-deception. Today however, that Kool-Aid has been rebranded as “fine wine”, as people are being asked to buy the notion that ONLY the vaccine will protect us from the deadly COVID germ and allow us to return to “normal.” Our guest this week, Jack Reed, just wrote a compelling essay called “Kool-Aid”, where he lays out deception after deception, from the Gulf of Tonkin attack that didn’t happen, to the Patriot Act passed in the aftermath of the 911 attacks, to the current lockdown of both people and information during the COVID-19 crisis – each of which has increased the power of the state, and diminished the power of the people. In the middle of this essay, he suggests that maybe what we need is a vaccine against deception. The closest we have to that is recognizing the patterns of deceit, and cultivating the courage to see them and call it out. And the good news is … in addition to being able to unblinkingly look at the awful truth, Jack is a clear-eyed visionary able to point us toward the world we want instead – and offer practical ways to get there. Jack Reed is a speaker, seminar leader, consultant for corporations and non-profit organizations, team-building facilitator, co-creator and trainer in the Community Planet consensus process, and author of The Next Evolution: a Blueprint for Transforming the Planet. in addition to 15 years experience living in an urban cooperative community where he was an active leader, Jack has created and facilitated consensus trainings for many groups starting with the Peace Theological Seminary in the early 90’s, in France, and most recently with the One Community team. If you’re ready to face the awful truth and embrace the awesome opportunity, please join us this Tuesday, May 4th at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.

  • Mark Crispin Miller - Propaganda

    28 APR 2021 · Propaganda Expert Is In Trouble For… Teaching About Propaganda Irony Deficiency and Truth Decay in “Not-See” America Aired Tuesday, April 27, 2021 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST Disclaimer: The views expressed on this show are those of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of OMTimes Media. Interview with Author, Journalist and Professor Mark Crispin Miller “Notseeism: Deadly disease of the body politic where people choose to not see what is too uncomfortable to look at.” — Swami Beyondananda As the Swami has been telling us for years now, the body politic is one sick puppy, suffering from irony deficiency … truth decay … electile dysfunction … and most recently from bi-polar disorder. As a result, what we used to call democracy is in the intensive care unit – and those who intensively care about its survival are finding themselves more and more marginalized. Fortunately, we still have that bastion of truth, academia, where in the spirit of the Free Speech Movement more than half a century ago, academic freedom is alive and well as professors and students freely and frankly discuss the most divisive issues of our time. Oh … wait a minute. That must be happening in a parallel universe. In this universe, a professor who has literally written the book on propaganda – or at least wrote the preface to one – is on the verge of being fired for teaching about propaganda. His crime? Pointing out the propaganda being promoted by the university itself. Fortunately, his colleagues at the university have bravely rallied around him, and … Oh … OK. That too is happening in a parallel universe. Oh, well. All’s well that ends Orwell. Our guest today, Mark Crispin Miller, has been fighting “notseeism” for decades, courageously pointing out those uncomfortable truths that others choose to not see. Now he is embroiled in his own battle to keep his position at NYU, after unmasking the propaganda about masking, and being guilty of “hate speech” – now defined as saying anything that the power structure hates to hear. Mark Crispin Miller earned his bachelor’s degree from Northwestern University in 1971, and his doctorate in English from Johns Hopkins University in 1977. He is currently a Professor of Media, Culture and Communication at New York University. He is the author of several books, including, The Bush Dyslexicon: Observations on a National Disorder, Cruel and Unusual: Bush/Cheney’s New World Order and Fooled Again: The Real Case for Electoral Reform (2007). Miller is the editor of Forbidden Bookshelf, an e-book series that revives important works now out of print, most of which were variously killed at birth. He also wrote the introduction to the 2004 edition of Edward Bernays’ book Propaganda. He is also editor of News From the Underground. If you believe in the credo of the Great Upwising, the truth shall UPSET you free, please join us this Tuesday, April 27th at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.

  • Dr. Bruce Greyson - Near-Death Experiences and the Great Upwising

    21 APR 2021 · Dr. Bruce Greyson – Near-Death Experiences and the Great Upwising How the Prospect of “Life After Death” Informs Life BEFORE Death Aired Tuesday, April 20, 2021 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST Interview with Dr. Bruce Greyson, Author of “After: A Doctor Explores What Near-Death Experiences Reveal About Life and Beyond” “I haven’t actually had a near-death experience myself, but I hear it’s out of this world.” — Swami Beyondananda And now for something completely different… While we think of politics as extremely “this-worldly”, this week we are going to explore the otherworldly domain of near-death experiences and their implications for how we perceive life and death, and conduct ourselves in this world. This is a personal issue for me. When I was eight years old, my dad suffered a near-fatal heart attack, and afterward reported what would now be termed a near-death experience. While he was unconscious, his sister Betty, who had passed just a month before, beckoned to him from across a bridge. For some reason – possibly because he had two young boys to take care of – he declined the invitation and returned to this world. He lived another 18 years, long enough to see his boys grown up and on their way to fulfilling lives. As a boy, I continued to read about these experiences in Reader’s Digest, probably the only publication in the 1950s and 1960s that would give the experience credence. Fast-forward to 1980, when I was teaching a creative writing class for adults at the University of Michigan. One of my students was Dr. Bruce Greyson, at that time the emergency room psychiatrist at University of Michigan hospital. He was working on a story with a metaphysical theme, and one week when he was out of town, I was surprised to receive an installment from him in the mail in an envelope marked, “University of Virginia, Department of Parapsychology.” Needless to say, I was intrigued. When he returned, I asked him about it. He looked around to make sure I was the only one who could hear him. He then told me he did his psychiatric residency working with Ian Stevenson (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Stevenson), who was investigating children who remembered past life experiences. (I will save the full story for the interview itself.) In any case, Bruce and I stayed connected over the years and he has made the study of near-death experiences as his life’s work. As a scientist without a religious belief system, he has been relentless in seeking some physical explanation for the anecdotal data he received from patients who had vivid memories of what transpired when their brains were “dead”. These individuals quite often knew things they had no business knowing – including the awareness of loved ones who died while they themselves were unconscious and would have had no way of finding out. Do these inexplicable experiences that defy linear logic and scientific dogma have implications for the awakening needed to transform politics? I say they do! Bruce Greyson is Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences at the University of Virginia, and is author of After: A Doctor Explores What Near-Death Experiences Reveal about Life and Beyond (2021), co-author of “Irreducible Mind” and co-editor of The Handbook of Near-Death Experiences (2009). He has written many journal articles, and has given media interviews, and has been called the father of research in near-death experiences. If you’re curious about what near-death studies have to offer both about life after death and life BEFORE death, please join us this Tuesday, April 20th at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.

  • Diane Perlman - Grave New World?

    14 APR 2021 · Diane Perlman – Grave New World? The Vaccine Passport and the Dynamics of Domination Aired Tuesday, April 13, 2021 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST Interview with Political Psychologist, Activist and Writer Diane Perlman “Notseeism: The habit of choosing to not see what is too uncomfortable to look at.” — Swami Beyondananda Disclaimer: The views expressed on this show are those of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of OMTimes Media. You should discuss the Coronavirus vaccinations with your personal physician and get their recommendations based on your health history. Visit https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html for the latest information. America – and indeed the world – is living in two parallel realities. In one reality, experts are lauding the new vaccines as the only way to liberate us from the COVID pandemic and lockdown. Those who are “vaccine-hesitant” or doubt the efficacy of masking and social distancing are seen as science-deniers and ignorant, selfish Trumpsters. In another reality, the vaccines – particularly if made mandatory or de facto mandatory via vaccine passports – are viewed as untested, potentially dangerous, and an attempt to install medical totalitarianism. Critics of the “vaccine as savior” policy point to the censorship and de-platforming of any alternative views – including successful treatments of COVID cases that make hospitalization unnecessary – and wonder how many deaths could have been avoided had these simple and inexpensive treatments been publicized and made widely available. So who – or what – is right? Is there a middle ground as this seeming reality chasm widens? This week, we have re-invited a guest we had earlier this year, Diane Perlman, to discuss vaccine passports, censorship, polarization, and the psychological barriers to seeing the whole picture. She is in the process of establishing a new site CoronaWise, to offer irrefutable facts and undeniable evidence that the media has conveniently omitted, so that we can make wiser choices around vaccinations and handling these crises in the future. Diane Perlman, PhD, is a clinical and political psychologist, conflict analyst, interdisciplinary social scientist, author, educator, mediator, lifelong human rights advocate, environmentalist, and patent holder. She is interested in psychological dynamics of conflict and reconciliation, and strategies of win-win conflict transformation capable of producing enduring security. Previously she had a clinical practice in individual, couple and family therapy, psychoneuroimmunology and Jungian oriented psychotherapy.

  • Steven Newcomb - The ORIGINAL White Privilege

    31 MAR 2021 · Steven Newcomb – The ORIGINAL White Privilege The Doctrine of Discovery and Domination Aired Tuesday, March 30, 2021 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST Interview with Native American Scholar and Activist Steven Newcomb “Domination isn’t a race issue. It’s a human race issue.” — Swami Beyondananda In the wake of the “woke” culture and Black Lives Matter movement, there has been much focus on white privilege, and how the lives of privileged white people differ radically from those of people of color. While all this is undoubtedly true, and those people continue to suffer “micro-aggressions” from unconscious white folks, it’s the MACRO-AGGRESSION that nobody wants to talk about. That macro-aggression is the dominator meme that we conveniently mistaken for “the way things are” that impacts us all, reflecting the domination exploitation paradigm that permeates every institution in our society. And while the Doctrine of Discovery stems from the Papal bulls issued in the 15th century giving white conquistadors the right to rape, pillage and massacre non-Christian people, it goes back further than that. In fact, we might look at the Inquisition as the perfect example of “white-on-white” crime. Domination is a fundamental theme of patriarchal religion, as well as secular scientific materialism focused on the 3 M’s: Materialism, Money, and the Machine. Our guest this week, Native American legal scholar Steven Newcomb, has been with us before. Today, he is here to go deeper into this pervasive paradigm, to help us address three key questions: What’s so? So what? Now what? Steven Newcomb (Shawnee, Lenape) is one of the world’s leading scholars on the Doctrine of Discovery and Domination, as well as the author of the best-selling book Pagans in the Promised Land: Decoding the Doctrine of Christian Discovery (Fulcrum, 2008). He is a co-producer of the documentary movie, “The Doctrine of Discovery: Unmasking the Domination Code,” directed and produced by Sheldon Wolfchild (Dakota), with narration by Buffy Sainte-Marie (Cree). In 1992, Newcomb, along with Birgil Kills Straight (Oglala Lakota) founded the Indigenous Law Institute and began a global campaign to call upon the Holy See to revoke the Vatican papal bull of discovery and domination of May 4, 1493. That campaign has developed into a worldwide movement. http://www.originalfreenations.com/ Here is a photo of him face to face with Pope Francis, asking him to revoke the bull.

  • David Korten - From Ego-nomics to Eco-nomics

    24 MAR 2021 · David Korten – From Ego-nomics to Eco-nomics Transition to An Ecological Civilization Aired Tuesday, March 23, 2021 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST Interview with David Korten, author of “When Corporations Rule the World”, and the “ Great Turning” “If we lose the Earth, there goes our GDP.” — Swami Beyondananda In 1972 a book was written that was designed to change the world. The book, the Limits of Growth, was the first report issued by the Club of Rome, an organization founded by Italian industrialist Aurelio Peccei and Scottish scientist Alexander King in 1968. The report warned that economic growth could not continue indefinitely because of resource depletion. It went on to sell 30 million copies in more than 30 languages, making it the best-selling environmental book in history. And yet … here we are nearly half a century later, and experiencing peak everything. The book was remarkably prescient … but apparently had little impact. What happened? And … what can be done about it? Our guest on Wiki Politiki, David Korten, is a member of the Club of Rome, and has devoted his work to bringing about what he calls an “ecological civilization.” Writes David about the “epic choice” we face: We can continue to seek marginal adjustments in the culture and institutions of the Imperial Civilization of violence, domination, and exploitation that put us on a path to self-extinction. Or we can transition to an Ecological Civilization dedicated to restoring the health of living Earth’s regenerative systems while securing material sufficiency and spiritual abundance for all people. Material sufficiency and spiritual abundance – the perfect way to shift from measuring gross national product, to enjoying gross national happiness. Dr. David Korten is the founder and president of the Living Economies Forum; co-founder, board member, and board chair emeritus of YES! Magazine; an associate fellow of the Institute for Policy Studies; and a full member of the Club of Rome. He worked for more than thirty-five years in business, academic, and international development institutions before he turned away from the establishment to become a leading critic of what he calls global suicide economy. He is the author of the international best-seller When Corporations Rule the World, along with The Great Turning: From Empire to Earth Community, Agenda for a New Economy: From Phantom Wealth to Real Wealth and Change the Story, Change the Future: A Living Economy for a Living Earth (2015).

  • Jonathan Granoff - From Homeland Insecurity to Heartland Security

    17 MAR 2021 · Jonathan Granoff – From Homeland Insecurity to Heartland Security Shifting to A Global Culture of Peace Aired Tuesday, March 16, 2021 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST Interview with Attorney, Author and Documentarian Jonathan Granoff, President of the Global Security Institute “If war is a necessary evil, it’s time to establish peace as a necessary good.” — Swami Beyondananda It is sadly true and truly sad. What has come to be known as globalism can also be called gobble-ism, as it has become a way for those with way too much money and way too much power to gobble up our planetary resources, and keep the world’s population armed against one another. To keep this system in place, there is a system of “impropaganda” perpetuated by a media controlled by a few corporate players. In other words, globalization = gobble-ization = Goebbelization. Fortunately, there is an awakening – an upwising – by those who see a new kind of global engagement that comes from bottom up awareness instead of top-down imposition. Our guest this week, Jonathan Granoff, President of the Global Security Institute, is truly a voice in the bewilderness, who recognizes that our current way of pursuing “security” is both obsolete and obsolethal. Instead of promoting endless growth – that is, extraction of nonrenewable resources – and preserving peace by preparing for war, we need to encourage the cooperation necessary for sustainable living and development. I know, I know. He is proposing a sane world. He must be crazy. My sense is that he is calling forth a “sane asylum” where we find and cultivate the sane and sacred center that represents our true human potential. Jonathan Granoff is an attorney, author and international advocate emphasizing the legal and ethical dimensions of human development and security, with a specific focus on advancing the rule of law to address international security and the threats posed by nuclear weapons. He serves on numerous governing and advisory boards including: Lawyers Committee on Nuclear Policy, Fortune Forum, Jane Goodall Institute, the NGO Committee on Disarmament, Peace and Security, Parliamentarians for Nuclear Nonproliferation and Disarmament, and Middle Powers Initiative. He is a recipient of the Rutgers University School of Law’s Arthur E. Armitage Distinguished Alumni Award and a 2014 nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize. Writes Jonathan in a recent piece: “The planet can be understood as one integrated living system. Humanity can be understood as one species in a web of life. We require a new set of ideas in accord with this understanding.” If you’d like to find ways to turn this ideal into the real deal, please join us this Tuesday, March 16th at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.

At a time when political polarization, dysfunction, and confusion seem to be at an all-time high, and when noise and static seem to be drowning out sane discourse … the Wiki Politiki Radio Show offers a heartening alternative: Fun, laughter, constructive conversation, and insight.

Its purpose is to cultivate the wisdom of many perspectives, and create generative conversations to help us work together to find real solutions to the problems we face … or as Swami would say, “Let’s bring left and right front and center to turn the funk into function, and leave the junk at the junction.”

Each week on the Wiki Politiki Radio Show, host Steve Bhaerman (also known as cosmic comic Swami Beyondananda) will bring two “visionary, solutionary” voices to the show to offer their viewpoints, and then collaborate to find a wiser way forward. We’re not expecting our guests to agree about everything. That would be boring and unproductive!

We do expect that by speaking clearly and listening respectfully, there will be some “Aha’s” and new pathways for co-creation. And there will be plenty of ha-ha’s as well, as Steve and Swami bring much-needed humor to the political landscape.

Even though the show is called Wiki Politiki, the topics and guests will represent a wide range of fields — from spirituality and psychology to economy and ecology, health and wellbeing, and of course, politics. The politics will not focus on the entrenched and clichéd conversations between polarized tribes, but rather on the “meta-issues” that help us rise above and see from a higher perspective.
