Sofia University´s Hybrid Global Mental Health Conference
‘Enlightened Minds, Compassionate Hearts, and Embodied Wisdom: An Integrative Approach to Advancing Mental Health and Well-Being’ Aug 16-18, 2024
At Sofia University`s Online Conference (17 August 2024), I had the privilege of delivering my Keynote Address titled "Integrative Stewards of a New Earth: Co-Creating an Interconnected Way of Living as a Path of Wellbeing and Peace."
I explored the critical shift humanity must make from dualistic thinking and living to a deep recognition of our interconnectedness with all life towards an Evolutionary Upshift of “Unity in Diversity” with the whole Universe. This shift in consciousness is not merely philosophical but is essential for individual, collective, and planetary restoration of well-being and harmony/peace and further evolution.
The concept of "Embodied Phenomenology" and “Perennial Phenomenology” might serve as frameworks that can support the integration of spiritual and mystical experiences into our everyday lives.
I discussed "Evolutionary Conscious Unity," highlighting humanity's sacred mission to evolve toward a state of unity and compassion, where we recognize our responsibility as Stewards of a New Earth.
Closing implications included the importance of regenerating spirituality with science and science with spirituality towards an embodied sacred science , which calls for a renewal of our relationship with the planet. This involves not only sustainable practices, but also a deep spiritual commitment to nurturing life in all its forms. As we become more aware of our shared existence, we are better equipped to create a world rooted in harmony, respect, and interconnectedness.
Following the keynote, I received many touching messages of gratitude from attendees, expressing how the keynote and discussion resonated deeply with their own experiences and aspirations. Participants shared that the ideas presented offered them a renewed sense of hope and purpose in their personal and professional lives. One particular comment expressed appreciation for the emphasis on interconnectedness and the role of self-awareness in fostering global peace.
The gratitude and inspiration is reciprocal.
Thank you to all and Sofia University, USA.
