Universe and You – The Joy of Relating

Below the slides and audio recording from a talk I gave the other day for Tiger Woman Club at c3: Center for Conscious Creativity.

Been thinking lots about relating lately. There seems to be a lot of confusion around distinctions of the universal principles of duality and gender, of the emotional “Like – Not Like”, dialectics, of the ever new experience of “I and Other”. Been looking at a quadropolar model as a means to transmute dualism creatively. Some of that in the video below. Enjoy!

• Quotes I enjoyed

  I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration, I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and a person is humanized or de-humanized. If we treat people as they are, we make them worse. If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming.
