Videos, podcast, and community-- To see who we truly are, and to become more ourselves: more aware empowered agents, being humans together; To fulfill the profound desire for connection and intimacy: the need to know others and be known, loved, and needed in return; To cultivate more meaningful relationships and bonds; To escape loneliness, isolation, and individualism; To develop your hierarchy of values and priorities, and embody it in the world; To revitalize and build communities that embody our highest ideals and wisdom across generations; To advocate for the beauty of humanity and life in the face of anti-humanism; To overcome being institutionalized by the state and corporations; To turn from the never-ending emptiness of the pursuit of success, wealth, status, and power by knowing what enough is; To develop meaning and purpose by acting intentionally in the present. Amen. Amen. This is the way of being humans together.

We discuss each of these in detail, including hierarchies of values, community schisms over changing values, leadership structures and weaknesses, and the importance of active membership in healthy communities. Understanding and applying these principles can help each of us engage communities and make our participation more empowering and effectual.
