Emergent; Emergent Church, Emergent Creativity, Emergent Marketing: The Emerging Age

There is a radical shift taking place in all of humanity. This awareness comes from a knowing deep within. It is reflected in the hopes of many people in various walks of life with varying focus but, it all points to the fact that on the horizon, just ahead there is great change coming. It comes with the millennial shift as a new age is dawning. It will be an age where the whole person, the whole brain, the whole of society will rise to a heightened awareness with a shift to wholeness of being and wholeness of purpose. It is under way and irreversible.

In the former age, people, families, governments and businesses were compartmentalized. We as individuals have/had one way of being at work, one way of being at home with family, another way of being in church or social groups. I believe that all of these ways of being are becoming merged into a whole. This is certainly suggested by Eckhart Tolle in The New Earth, but as I explore the emerging scene, I find that there are those on the radical front that are already incorporating the spiritual with the natural in new areas, especially in business and marketing. They are suggesting that one, anyone can tap the creative source, the mind at large, God if you will allow that term. While they do not use the term, they point toward the intuitive in a way that validates the idea of the muses.

This shift, as Tolle points out is a shift in awareness of being. We are more than the sum of our parts. It will be interesting to watch how our institutions will react to this shift. I am sure that some will radically oppose the shift and will fight against it every step of the way. In the end however, it will only be those who surrender to the shift that will find that the change will happen painlessly and quietly.

This is a critical time. It is a time to reflect and reevaluate. It is a time to learn and grow and mostly, it is a time of incredible opportunity!
