Thank you Michael for your beautiful and timely article on the Unity Earth Symposium and congratulations to Ben Bowler and Unity Earth on your 5th annual programs and 10th anniversary. I especially appreciated how you captured the gathering as both a contemplative space and a catalytic forum—rooted in interspiritual wisdom, yet oriented toward practical cooperation and planetary responsibility. Your use of Teilhard de Chardin’s image of “harnessing the energies of love,” along with the spiral metaphor of revisiting challenges from a higher point of view, offered a clear and inspiring through-line.
I had invited a number of colleagues and friends to attend the two-day event, and your article encapsulates the essence of what many of us experienced: a shared movement from awareness to action, from dialogue to embodiment, and toward new forms of community and collaboration that can support peace on Earth.
Would you grant me permission to share your article (along with the great news that the recordings are freely available at https://unity.earth/tv/ ) with several individuals I invited to attend? If you prefer, I can share it only as a link, include full attribution exactly as you request, and add any brief note or disclaimer you’d like.
Greetings, Charles, and thank you so much for your kind words. By all means, please feel free to share the article—I will follow up on this with an email. Peace—Michael
