“Filmed in the fading light on the shores of Northern Scotland, this short film captures Charles Eisenstein in a moment of grief and reflection. The familiar story of the past is crumbling, while the new story has yet to arrive. In a time of social and ecological crisis, what can we as individuals do in this space between?
“An African proverb states “sometimes you must get lost in order to find your way.” Leaders no longer believe their ideology and are just going through the motions. There’s a vast territory between what we’re trying to leave behind and where we want to go, and we don’t have any maps for that territory. Eisenstein invites us to embrace a radically different understanding of cause and effect, sounding a clarion call to surrender our old worldview of separation, so that we can finally create the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible.”

4 December 2016 at 00:43This is the most beautiful and honest meditation about our planet I’ve heard so far. We have to believe in our planet in order to serve it and this is the only way to become a movement. Thank you!

26 January 2017 at 05:25Nature is a brother and we feel the agony, and we want to heal our brother, and we pray for nature because we are in our hearts at the dawn of our Deep rooted knowledge of the responsibility we feel is Rising and that was Always there. This movement of Rising is the call, so the hurt is okay, it is for me the Calling as to what I would want to see happen with all Life, smiles, love, Beauty and grasp the new things the best I can with attention and at its best with accept and love, but I want to more than anything, in my silence I want to and I get there not because I am different but because Life is my brother. Let us met in the silence of the vision of the most Beautiful planet breathing brotherhood and Peace. Love you so much.

26 January 2017 at 05:45I honour all attemps to align with fellow creatures with acknowledgement and divine oneness because it all put us to the Place of togetherness where we feel the Power coming from.
I see the movement of Rising spirit in all people for good because the cource of this planet was to create oneness with all Life and we know this, that is the inner call no matter what happens, and it will rize ahead and above all noncense because love AND visdom together will overcome the darkness, that will not comprehend or understand at all what is going on.
Be in the silent secure and notice that you are chosen to do your inner work of accepting the call by waiting, recieving and get filled by it, that which you are here for, till it burst into actions when the time comes, dont worry you will know what to do. Be that silently or loud, you will know, just you do it and I will for my part hold your hand as we Always do when we sleep in the higher temples of the spirit World sharing hearts and hands in great numbers, with a family greater than Earth.
Earth is the quality of school time we need to do, just surrender to it and align with the core of angels, I need you to lift me sometimes, and I will lift you at other times but together we rise.
Yes sister and yes brother we have some work to do, and we will accomplish all for the sake of the purpose of high, may we Always align to just that, and may God Bless our endavours.

28 February 2017 at 20:21OK, but doesn’t Charles Eisenstein have four children? And isn’t extinction of other creatures largely due to humans’ appropriation of habitat, creation of waste, etc.? No matter how “sustainably” one raises a child, that kid will still need stuff and use stuff and have a footprint–and in the US, it’s a big one, no matter what.
I just don’t understand how those dots didn’t connect.
