In this video, I discuss how humanity can look both 'upstream' and 'downstream' in order to solve many of the challenges we face.
I was inspired to speak about this topic by John Rose on YouTube, who coined this expression.
'Upstream' work refers to working with what we as individuals can control, primarily our consciousness and diet (as well as some other factors).
'Downstream' work refers to addressing the structures of society, institutions, how we engage with one another collectively.
No, this is not the politically correct / 'woke' narrative I'm referring to, here.
When I speak about speak about 'downstream', what I'm mainly talking about is government, institutions, and finance, especially central banking.
As the words suggest, the 'upstream' is primary, and the 'downstream' aspects are the inevtiable result of what 'flows' from 'upstream'.
In essence, the world and society we have collectively wrought as a species, and which we see today, is a direct reflection of our collective consciousness.
As within, so without; as above, so below; as the universe, so the soul.
This is promising to know, because it suggests or rather reminds us that we each have individual and collective power.
The power of our consciousness, diet, behaviour, and other factors.
As we grow in awareness and awaken spiritually in various areas of life, we become empowered and get to make different choices.
Those individual choices, that turning of awareness, is growing to such an extent now as to promise a 'tipping point' in our collective evolution.
In essence, humanity is awakening spiritually at this time.
We all get to play an exciting part in this process, which I do my best to explain in this video. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmmaamDTtQo
