The Cultural Agency Manifesto

The world can shift to a global renaissance, if personally and collectively we uncover and own our truth.

We are all connected by a World Consciousness Field that pervades everyone and every thing.

Through our true self, we experience the interconnectedness of all living things, all beings, all experiences and all belief systems.

Through our family, our social environment and our every day experiences, we receive and store information unconsciously. As we grow up and evolve, we start receiving and storing information consciously.

The unconscious information that we accumulate over time is what forms our worldview. This is what we use as the frame of reference against which we behave, make choices and take actions.

This unconscious information is also what forms our belief system, which dictates whether we perceive our inner self positively or negatively, what we think we can and cannot achieve in the world, how we interact and connect to other peoples and communities, and what we understand our relationship to the Earth to be.

Patriarchy, imperialism, racial supremacism, colonialism, and neo-colonialism have engendered systemic and structural biases, inequalities, distortions, discrimination, dehumanisation, abuse, exploitation, and manipulation that posit Western or hegemonic countries' ways as the reference in all fields, and as the desired ways of being, thinking and doing.

Unjust systems over many generations have created and still maintain distortions, dehumanisation, exploitation, abuse, humiliation, disrespect, and religious, political, economic and cultural impositions. These are root causes of mental, emotional and spiritual disconnect and traumas.

The disconnect and traumas that many experience generate low self-esteem and self-worth, anxiety, depression, hopelessness, frustrations of all kinds, anger, rage, shame, identity crises and the struggle to create or see a brighter path, and a brighter future - for one's self and for the world.

World leaders have been attempting to find political, economic, scientific or technological solutions to distortions and legacies of the mind, of the heart, of the body and of the soul.

Greed, the exploitation, degradation and extermination of people, the plundering and abuse of the Earth, money-hoarding, fear of the "Other", fear of what is different and diverse, fear of lack, and war-mongering, betray these leaders and their followers' own mental and emotional imbalances, as well as their own moral shortcomings.

The Earth is bountiful, and there is enough for everyone. We are here to care for all its inhabitants, to tend to the Earth and share in her bounty, not to exploit and deplete her riches. We are guests and stewards: we belong to the Earth and to the land, the Earth and the land do not belong to us.

Leadership, governance, institutions and interpersonal dynamics of another kind altogether are therefore necessary, to adequately redress the imbalances of the world's (eco)systems.

Whatever the plans or solutions proposed at any level and within any group or community, ultimately it is people who will have to meet, discuss and agree on the possibilities and on the path to adopt. Even when a way forward or a law is agreed and adopted, it is again people who will have to walk the path and uphold the rule of law. This is where we collectively hit another wall, because each and every one of us - regardless of background or experience, comes with unconscious legacies.

Therefore, unless each one of us looks within and heals seen and unseen wounds, no change - whether inner or outer, will ever last. Wounds buried deep in our psyche always find a way to the surface to express themselves, whether we want it or not. What these wounds and violations ask for is not be dismissed, not to be ignored, not to be supressed, not to be oppressed. What they ask for is to be heard, to be acknowledged and to be validated: by ourselves and for ourselves.

It is our individual and collective responsibility to ensure that we look within so as not act out on at the whip of these seen and unseen wounds and violations.

Each one of us is unique, with a unique set of soul memories, of cell memories, a unique blueprint and a unique roadmap. Each one us is here to uncover and own their truth, express their own unique voice, walk their own unique path and make their own unique contribution, respected and respectful. This a birth right for ALL. No exceptions.

Our ultimate human need is to evolve into free and consciously aware beings, living in harmony with all peoples, with animals, and with Nature.

The world is transitioning to a new epoch, and the time to reclaim and use the full power of our consciousness and reach our full potential is now. We have a responsibility to ourselves, to our communities and to future generations, to look within deeply and boldly, and take action.

Tuning deep within and reaching self-knowledge, self-understanding, self-trust and self-love are the prerequisites to fully reclaim our inner power, and effect the inner transformation called for, at this turning point in our personal and collective evolution.

Turning to the outside world, it is our unity of purpose, our trust and belief in one another, our compassion, and our collective action away from distorted narratives and dystopian projections, that will birth a new era of positive creative change.

Knowledge of who we are, of where we come from, of our personal and ancestral histories and legacies, healing present and ancestral wounds, harvesting the riches and insights of our past, rewriting our distorted narratives, and reclaiming our personal power, agency, our freedom, is the way forward. This is how to break free from the shackles of the mind preventing us from reaching our full potential, and taking our rightful places in the co-creation of a cultural, social, economic and political renaissance in the world.

When the World's Consciousness Field reaches a critical mass of positive information from our thoughts, emotions intentions and actions maintained over time, the positive information of the Field will shift collective consciousness on a global scale.

What happens to one, happens to all, and what affects one, affects all. All parts of our being, all parts of our lives, all of our experiences, our past, our present and our future - all is one.

Let us see through the true narratives of our histories, let us reclaim and re-write our stories; let us heal seen and unseen wounds and dismantle the inner blocks slowing us down; let us restore our inner power, and let us envision and co-create positive and regenerative futures, for ourselves, for others, and for the planet.

At the Cultural Agency, this is our vision and our mission.
