ENVISIONING

 

The birthing of a new consciousness in the public process that reflects the

evolutionary potentials of humanity and which arises from the wholeness of

our being -- body, mind, heart, and spirit.

 

As an author, speaker, social innovator and spiritual pioneer, Barbara Marx

Hubbard has established the new field of conscious evolution. Her

evolutionary perspective suggests a way through our global crises toward an

immeasurable future. As President of the Foundation for Conscious Evolution,

she has developed an on-line evolutionary educational process called Gateway

to Conscious Evolution, now reaching people worldwide.

John Robbins is one of the most eloquent and powerful spokespersons for a

sane, ethical and sustainable future, and widely considered to be one of the

world's leading experts on the dietary link with the environment and

health..

The only son of the founder of the Baskin-Robbins ice cream empire, John

chose to " ...pursue the dream of a society at peace with its conscience

because it respects and lives in harmony with all life forms. "
