Today, understanding the science-proven probabilities on the deepest reoccurring patterns of life as well as the evolutionary directionality of the universe from a whole system and deep time perspective may be the most direct, effective and integral way to supercharge not just your day-to-day success and spiritual practice, but also to inform a new, deeper tolerance level between today's religions. This is because In many ways the universe has always been the original religion. Just as the fruit of a seed must always reflect the nature of the seed's inherent qualities, the physical universe has also always been the most direct way to be objectively informed as to both the most probable qualities and the most likely "intentionality" of that great remaining Mystery --- that, which originated the universe itself! In the following universe science summary you can review these and other critical implications of the cutting-edge science on the universe's integral and deepest evolutionary patterns and developmental directionality.

Remember the famous and popular Bud Lite Super Bowl commercial where the frogs were on lily pads repeating “Bud” –“Lite” in unison and repeatedly. In the following three linked essays we are going to be leapfrogging through discussions about spirituality, a greater understanding of integral spirituality in particular and a fuller discussion of integral Christianity. The first essay, called Building an Integral Spiritual Life, is for those persons new to the spiritual life, who have confusion and questions about how to begin a spiritual life and for those who feel a need for more focus and discipline in their spiritual life. The second essay invites you into an exploration of the meaning of integral spirituality. The third essay picks up from the end of the second essay with a discussion and exploration of the meaning of integral Christianity. Hope you have as much fun as the frogs did on the Bud Lite commercial. Also, stayed tuned for an upcoming new course on Integral Christianity. by Mac Broussard

Part 4: A lot of new information has evolved Darwin’s original theory of evolution. The new post-Darwinian theories and qualifications of evolution can tangibly teach us how to live more integral and successful lives and, they show us how evolution has repeatedly solved problems such as global warming in the past by replacing destructive competition with larger-scale cooperative organization. The ground breaking Evolutionary Manifesto by John Stewart contains a new evolutionary way to see the planet and live ethically. While it only indirectly mentions spirituality, it is essential life information for Evolutioneers, Evolutionaries, Futurists and Sustainability Advocates and anyone who resonates with evolutionary spirituality or eco-spirituality or, who believes that life and spirituality should be informed and assisted by the science of evolution. And after all, is not evolving life --- itself the deepest core essence of what spirituality and religion is supposed to be all about?
