Fw: David and Burna Dunn Reflect
by Roger Alexander 16 Jul '13

16 Jul '13

Based on Ken's comments I watched this interview and found it profound and moving. Although I was never in the Order I was pretty deeply involved and still am in many ways (ToP Network, OKIOS/ICA, reading many of the messages on these distribution lists, working with new colleagues in the TN and old colleagues in ICA using ORID and the ToP methods, struggling with trying to bring the local church into the 21st Century, etc) . Burma and David's comments certainly resonated with me and spoke to my Spirit deeps. Roger Roger Alexander 5809 Meadowcrest Bartlesville, OK 74006 918-333-5299 ralexan934(a)sbcglobal.net "Never doubt that a small group of committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." Margaret Mead "Whatever the problem, community is the answer. There is no power greater than a community discovering what it cares about." Margaret Wheatley ----- Original Message ----- From: Ken Fisher To: Order Ecumenical Community Cc: Michael May Sent: Sunday, July 07, 2013 9:32 AM Subject: [Oe List ...] David and Burna Dunn Reflect Dear Colleagues, It is possible to imagine that Michael May could have interviewed any of you evoking a similar impact. For me, I had the opportunity of once more bringing to consciousness the impact of O:E formation in my daily life; internal and external. I was enlivened by the following interview with Burna and David; not because it had any 'special' message, but because it allowed me to have a fresh reconnection with my own 'basics' such as daily contemplation and prayer.

Groundbreaking thinking
by Janice Ulangca 16 Jul '13

16 Jul '13

Colleagues, So much bubbling right now. And our "movement" needs to be part of it if we are to find the relevant niches/roles for our unique experiences going forward. I've been very interested in the list serv discussion of Charles Taylor's "The Secular Society" - along with Michael Dowd's "Thank God for Evolution". Some familiar names, along with some perhaps not so for all of us, are coming up on a phone call this Saturday. Ken Wilbur's ideas have been discussed by many of us - we read Riane Eisler's book "The Chalice and the Blade" - and I remember hearing Barbara Marx Hubbard at 4750 the summer we heard people like Jean Houston. Laszlo's book "The Chaos Point" we studied here in Binghamton the year it came out. For those interested in the deeps of current reality, including the role of consciousness, this phone call might be worth checking out. Janice Ulangca ------------------- Saturday, July 20, 2013 12pm US Pacific / 3pm US Eastern Sign up to listen live or receive the recording The evidence is mounting from every direction: the materialist paradigm of science is breaking down. Data that traditional scientists tried to ignore or dismiss has become more robust every day. What will replace the materialist paradigm? And how will that new paradigm change how we think about... everything? In this groundbreaking online event, some of the foremost thinkers of our day will look at the implications of startling evidence that materialistic science cannot explain, such as non-locality - that consciousness is connected at a distance, instantly - and what they are calling the Akashic Field - a kind of record-keeping function for the cosmos. They will look at how the cumulative body of evidence forces a major, even historic shift in how we see the nature of reality. Consciousness comes to the foreground, not as an evolutionary afterthought but a prime mover and causative factor. How might this reshape the paradigm at the very foundations of science? And how might it lead to the evolution of our culture and our consciousness? Join us for scintillating insights, powerful dialogue, and a spirit of adventure into the unknown. You'll hear powerful insights from pre-eminent panelists, including scientists, philosophers, and futurists who are in public dialogue for the first time: a.. Ervin Laszlo - Author of more than 80 books and one of the most prodigious, systemic thinkers of our day b.. Ken Wilber - Renowned integral philosopher who has bridged worlds from spiritual practice to complexity theory to create a comprehensive map of our Kosmos that includes our interiors c.. Barbara Marx Hubbard - Celebrated as a visionary and futurist for her ability to see future trends and possibilities d.. Riane Eisler - Bestselling author, social scientist, pioneer of the "partnership paradigm" e.. Duane Elgin - Futurist, social visionary, author of five books, former senior social scientist with Stanford Research Institute This teleseminar event is completely free. So invite your friends and allies and skeptics as well to join you for what is sure to be 60 minutes of brilliant and provocative insights that give you a powerful glimpse of what the science of the next millennium just may look like. Even if you can't make the call live, do sign up and you'll receive access to a recording.

YHMLW: "Your Humble Mailing List Worker" -- reminds of OT abbreviations (but a bit shy of YHWH) Gratitude abounds, JC -----Original Message----- From: dialogue-bounces(a)lists.wedgeblade.net [mailto:dialogue-bounces@lists.wedgeblade.net] On Behalf Of Timothy Wegner Sent: Monday, July 15, 2013 6:04 PM To: Colleague Dialogue Subject: [Dialogue] Mailing lists cleanup I try to minimize posting mailing list business, but here is a little bit that seems necessary. I am attempting to cleanup the mailings list subscriptions. I unsubscribed nearly all the emails that are marked "no mail" by "the administrator". These are emails that are subscribed but don't get any list mail. (Your email account on which you received this is obviously not one of these, because you are getting this message!) Some of you might have subscribed more than one email on purpose so you could post messages to the list from multiple places without getting the list mail in all those places. It's also possible that I did this for you when I saw attempts to post a message from an obviously valid person using an non-subscribed email (I sometimes do this in self-defense so I don't have to approve a lot of messages). So - if you got wedgeblade.net email saying one of your accounts was unsubscribed, that is what is going on. Probably nothing needs to be done, but write me if you think I got it wrong, and you want the other email (the one the message said was unsubscribed) subscribed. Your humble mailing list worker is doing his best working on your behalf. He hopes to get it right before he dies! <grin!> Tim

Hi All, I just talked to Joe Thomas on the phone. He's not too worried about the surgery but he was delighted to hear about all the prayers from colleagues. He's not on the list though so he hasn't seen them - but he said he would love to see them today before he goes to surgery - and he asked me send them all! But unfortunately (or maybe fortunately for me) I have deleted them all. So if you would like to send them to him personally his emal is: jrthomas42(a)aol.com Love and Peace, Rose Anne Sands ____________________________________________________________ 30-second trick for a flat belly This daily 30-second trick BOOSTS your body's #1 fat-burning hormone http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/51e410fce6d8910fc3202st04vuc

CLIMATE MARCH
by David Zahrt 14 Jul '13

14 Jul '13

Y'all (*learned that when I was assigned to Pace, MS!)* * * Hope you're aware of the CLIMATE MARCH that starts on March 1, 2014. It starts in Santa Monica and heads through San Bernardino. You can take a look at the Route URL and see where/when it may come by you. It gives the mileage and not the time of arrival in a specific place. I've heard that the estimated progress is 15 miles/day. Initial info I have tells me there will be approximately 1000 people. The estimated time of arrival in WDC is November 2014. Take a look at their website and tell me what you think. I'm hoping to start the MARCH. Not sure how long I can keep it up. But I'll find out. I'll certainly make it to San Bernardino and hope to see Frank and Linda and Milan.! Be nice if we could get together all along the CLIMATE MARCH. *The Great March for Climate Action* www.ClimateMarch.org <http://www.climatemarch.org/> 858-35-MARCH [858-356-2724] ed(a)climatemarch.org [Ed Fallon] The URL for the entire route is posted on the website. And here's the beginning of the route. < https://maps.google.com/maps?source=embed&f=d&saddr=Santa+Monica,+CA&daddr=… Peace, David PS. I'll be attending a week-long workshop that Paul Chappell is conducting at the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation in Santa Barbara, beginning Jul 21
