Comments on: Paul Hawken: A Direct, Naked, Shivering, Startling, Graceful Talk http://goodlifezen.com/2009/05/19/paul-hawken-a-direct-naked-shivering-startling-graceful-talk/ Practical inspiration. For a happier life Mon, 15 Mar 2010 08:51:05 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Stuart Knoles http://goodlifezen.com/2009/05/19/paul-hawken-a-direct-naked-shivering-startling-graceful-talk/comment-page-1/#comment-5943 Stuart Knoles Mon, 24 Aug 2009 03:10:00 +0000 http://goodlifezen.com/?p=2834#comment-5943 The words “…earth needs a new operating system, you are the programmers…” and “ Buckminster Fuller … spaceship earth…so ingeniously designed that no one has a clue…” make me reflect on and share what I have been hearing and experiencing. Rediscovery of a new operating system would be Vedic Knowledge. Vedic Knowledge has always been the operating system – yet an ever-new discovery by each generation of its values; but, as B. Fuller states, operating perfectly behind the scenes no one has a clue as to the source of the order that makes it all possible. We suffer the consequences of ignorantly coming out of the system. How astounding it is that now this generation has been presented the complete operating system – the key to the main switchboard, mastery of natural law, freedom from problems, full use of the hardware and software. Although in the hands of a few, doesn't matter; simply engage. According to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the operating system of spaceship earth is the operating system of the physiology, and is the operating system of the universe as well; it is That which is self-sufficient, self-referral, and which structures Itself as Ved and identifies Itself as Totality. The ultimate level of an operating system is complete self-referral; thus, that is why It is discovered as one's own pure state of subjectivity in the transcendent.

I love these parts: "This planet came with a set of operating instructions, but we seem to have misplaced them. Important rules like don’t poison the water, soil, or air, and don’t let the earth get overcrowded, and don’t touch the thermostat have been broken. ...The earth couldn’t afford to send any recruiters or limos to your school. It sent you rain, sunsets, ripe cherries, night blooming jasmine, and that unbelievably cute person you are dating. " Thanks so much for sharing Mary! I bookmarked this page too so I can refer to it back another time. <abbr><em>Celes | EmbraceLiving.Nets last blog post..<a href="http://embraceliving.net/blog/2009/05/embracelivingnet-in-media/" rel="nofollow">EmbraceLiving.Net in Media!</a></abbr></em> This is an amazing address.

What is important is to be good and be rich in the realities in life. We badly need to have a new operating system - however, the old wine in the new bottle will work better!

Mr. Hawken so eloquently and powerfully puts into words what I feel in my heart but could not say adequately. It says a lot about the University to have selected such a noble speaker to address their graduates. I only wish that this speech could have been delivered globally. Thank you for sharing. I look forward to reading more of what is offered on this website. What an introduction to this website (for me)!

Each bit in the talk sparks off new ways of thinking about life. What if flowers only bloomed once in a thousand years. We would be beside ourselves seeing a bud open!! Hi Diana!
