Unity Connections

We continue our exploration of the book Birthing a Greater Reality by Robert Brumet this Sunday. Last Sunday we took a deep dive into the exploration of the structures of consciousness as a means for considering how consciousness (awareness) has evolved for humanity as a whole. This week we will consider how that process occurs within us individually. Brumet sets the stage by sharing the work of German philosopher, scientist and mystic Jean Gebser who “conceptualized these structures of consciousness by how they lead us to experience the world itself. Each structure has its unique outlook, its unique way of interpreting reality. This theory states that the mental structure of consciousness remains the dominate mode in our world today.

Before moving on, I would like to clarify that the process of scientific evolution need not be at odds with this expanded purpose for evolution based on the process of involution. I did not mean to imply that science is inadequate or inferior to spirituality.   I believe that science and spirituality are equally important, and valid. Considering them b

  We are continuing our Sunday series based on  the book, Birthing a Greater Reality: A Guide for Conscious Evolution by Robert Brumet. For those of you reading along, you may have felt a bit overwhelmed by the amount of philosophical and metaphysical material that was presented. Chapter two was a bit like drinking from a metaphysical firehose, so just take what you are able to digest for now. The main takeaway is that there is a far greater purpose to evolution. We are being called to recognize this in order to participate in the fulfillment of that purpose. Our participation is imperative. I know, yet another thing to add to your endless to do lis t !  Rest assured, you have already been a part of this process as you have sought to grow, and heal, and expand in your own life. Personal transformation is the individual expression of the collective experience of evolution. In Truth, the pull that we feel to do this is the pull of Spirit within us. Together, we are waking up to fulln
