Evolutionary Spirituality 101, Introductory Course!
This Evolutionary Spirituality introductory course is designed for everyone. We strongly recommend it as the first course that you do even if you are a long term student of spirituality and religion. It is about a whole new form of primal spirituality underlying all other forms of mystical and traditional spirituality and religion.
You do not have to be any particular denomination or at any spiritual or religious level to it. It is omni-denominational. Curious agnostics, atheists and humanists as well as earth and geoscience lovers, deep ecologists and bioneers will find the language, options and selections within this course quite comfortable for anyone coming from either a non religious or even anti-religion background. If you are into one of the many forms of environmentalism and living sustainably already, you will love what this course will add to your motivation and life and you will find its companion eco-spirituality course the Great Work, 102 completely wonderful. If you are not living in a sustainable way, these two free access courses will change your life and actions.
If you would like a brief, but larger overview on what this Evolutionary Spirituality 101 course will cover and why it is so important to every individual at any level of their spiritual or secular life adventure --- especially as it relates to the environment and global warming, we strongly recommend that you, click here!
The amazing two books that you will read on this course are:
The Great Work of Our Time, 102
This new course is based on the book, The Great Work, Our Way into the Future by Thomas Berry. We recommend that you do it after you do the 101 course. This course is recommended to be done after the Evolutionary Spirituality 101 course because it not only super-motivates, but it also offers broad plans for what must be done in the Great Work. It also deepens and further explains the many eco-spirituality principles found in the 101 course.
Why We (a Spiritual Organization) have these Free Access Environmentalism & Gaia Online Courses in Eco-Spirituality and Evolutionary Spirituality?
The Evolutionary Spirituality movement is a major source of motivation, support, wisdom and empowerment for the global eco-spirituality, sustainability and environmentalism movements. This is important because “Job One” for all humanity is to rapidly come together to save the planet from its current directions toward potentially biocidal destruction. If we do not find new ways to work together using what is common and unites us, the quality of life for both ourselves and for all future generations will be severely lessened and possibly ended.
At the current time due to the growing environmental crisis that both we and all future generations will face, there is no greater more embodied and important great spiritual work and daily spiritual practice than that of learning and following the practical steps of living sustainably and actively stewarding the Earth's eco-systems for ourselves, for future generations and to honor or give back to Ultimate Reality however you define it.
Due to this looming environmental crisis, no religious or spiritual person who feels love or connection to Infinite Oneness/Ultimate Reality and/or others can any longer ignore their logically most immediate spiritual responsibility and daily spiritual practice --- to live in a practical sustainable harmony with the eco-systems of earth and to teach others to do so as well. Until we are collectively out of this growing environmental crisis, living sustainably and educating both ourselves and others on how to live sustainably is absolutely Job One for every person, corporation, government, organization and religion on the planet!
If we do not do this Job One fast and well to protect the Earth life system that sustains all lives and activities, then the lives and dreams every person, organization and generation will be drastically effected in unthinkable painful ways up to and including de facto planetary wide biocide. The evolutionary spirituality demonstrated in this course is critically relevant today because it offers humanity a common and uniting genesis story and it offers each individual a common and uniting identity with all other individuals at the deepest levels of meaning and living. From these two things naturally emerges a myriad of rational, non-polarizing spiritual and secular behaviors as well as an implied near-universal set of ethics, morals and virtues for living both authentic and successful lives in the 21st century.
One could easily say that the evolutionary spirituality movement potentially presents the most primal, uniting and universal post big bang spiritual movement existing in the world today. Its ideas are critical to understanding the most basic level of our common universal origin, nature and destiny. Even if you are already a confirmed environmentalist, this eco-spirituality course will help you build a sustainable lifestyle and super motivate you to do your part to help protect earth’s ecosystems for yourself and all future generations.
