George Cappannelli – Can “Tell-A-Vision” Change Our Programming?Shifting Our Focus From What We DON’T Want to What We DO WantAired Tuesday, July 7, 2020 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM ESTInterview with George Cappannelli, Co-Founder of Age Nation and the “World I Want Collaboratory”“This is a make believe world … we make what we believe.” — Swami BeyondanandaSomething that seems to be true about we humans is, we are a lot more clear – and vocal – about what we DON’T want than what we DO want. Maybe it’s because that to survive, our ancestors had to be hyper-vigilant about anything that could be harmful, and visioning and designing a future different from our past was relegated to the luxury of leisure time. Add to this the programming that we are “sinners” and that creating a world that works is “utopian”, and we can see how we’ve arrived at the brink of a dark, dystopian reality.But as the Swami says, we have a choice. If we don’t want dystopia, we have to choose “dat-topia” – an alternative where we use our intelligence intelligently and our resources more resourcefully.The question of the day – if not the century – is, how do we turn the ideal into the “real deal”? How do we cohere a sacred center around the virtues and values our spiritual teachers have extolled for millennia – and that science is now confirming as the optimal operating system for evolutionary thrival?Our guest on Wiki Politiki this week, George Cappannelli is the co-founder of The World I Want “Collaboratory” to help us design a future worth living into.
