Introduction

Conscious Evolution Research & Development Center

Dear Friend of Earth and Humanity,

With all the elite schools creating intelligence, knowledge, wisdom, skills and experiences for millions of people each year, I could not understand why the world is the mess it is. I was dumbfounded that after all the good work of brilliant visionaries and billions of people, the world is so much worse now with hypersonic nuclear missiles, 24/7 surveillance, and imprisonment of democracy, justice and climate activists, while we have ever-increasing military budgets, heat, fires and rising seas.

I came to this conclusion. Most leaders are fools. I realized that probably 100 leaders, in 50 countries (5000 fools), will determine the fate of Earth and humanity for the rest of life on Earth, for billions of people, for thousands of years, if humans don’t go extinct first. 5000 fools – how ridiculous is that?

They created China’s 50-year plan for world domination of resources. White supremacists are fighting to maintain their power, control and resources. Arabs and Israelis, fighting for 70 years over their existence, and now parcels of land.

Please join me in creating a much-needed new world through a new think tank – the Conscious Evolution Research & Development Center.

Very best regards, Sandy Hinden

could be solved within the

nation. Current life conditions

demand more complex

solutions, in technology,

politics, economics, etc.,

needing solutions that

encompass the whole of

humanity, that cannot be

solved by one nation alone.

We need to cooperate on the

level of the human race,

connecting all people.”

Humans can become aware of how

education and culture shape a person’s reality and actions.

Conscious evolution suggests humanity let-go

of self-destructive personal addictions and isolation,

excess competition and conflict, and ecological devastation.

We can consciously choose healthy advancement through

personal wellness, interpersonal co-operation and co-creation,

and sustainable global policy, practices, laws, and institutions

that create a healthier planet Earth for all.

10 Steps for Conscious Evolution

BE THE CHANGE6. We explore how to foster Conscious Evolution

in ourselves, our relationships, families and work life.

7. Conscious evolution enables us to let-go of self-destructive personal addictions and isolation, excess competition and conflict.

8. We consciously choose healthy advancement through personal wellness, interpersonal co-operation, collaboration and co-creativity.

SAVE THE PLANET 9. We seek to understand how to develop

sustainable global policy, practices, laws, and institutions that create a healthier planet Earth for all.

10. We seek to do this work in peace and balance.

SUPPORT & CARE1. We now understand that it is "Not easy being

green" or "Saving the Planet." 2. All lovers of nature, Earth and humanity need

a support group that can be helpful, beneficial, and of service to each other, generating wellness, aliveness and connection.

LEARN, GROW, DEVELOP3. We create a beneficial space to learn, grow

and develop together. 4. We become aware of how education and

culture shape our personal reality and actions.5. We use the Action Research Model to

clarify what we are learning individually and collectively each week, and clarify what to do next to create the life and world we want.

This Conscious Evolution Research & Development Center is a place for people devoted to healing Earth and humanity.

• The percentages are estimates.

• When entrepreneurs don’t become clear about the 5 Value Groups, they may overestimate their market, and underestimate the resources needed to reach their market.

• Since 65% are slower or resistant toimproving society for the good of all, Conscious Evolutionary co-creators may be ignored and minimized by them.

• Even the 35% of Innovators and Early Adopters may be highly competitive.

• CEs need strategies to survive and thrive anyway.

Thinking& Feeling


Each day, Conscious Evolutionariesneed to be aware that the world requires evolving.

Things need to be clarified, understood,valued and balanced.

All too often, the world seems mixed-up.Things that are trivial and small are considered big.

Things the are significant and big are considered small.Things that are important are considered unimportant.Things that are unimportant are considered important.

Conscious Evolutionarieswork to raise world consciousness

by putting proper proportion to things for the sake of the health of the world.

Humility saves me from humiliation.Comparing leads to despairing, so I stop comparing myself to others.

Clearer Understanding


CONNECTEDNESS

• The elite circle is the domain of fortunate people who may have grown-up with wealth. They have opportunities to go to the best schools, be considered for the best jobs, and be eligible for relationships with others in fortunate circles.

• They may be celebrities, sports figures, in finance, investments and cryptocurrencies, in media and Hollywood, in high level government positions, education and think tanks.

• They may enjoy fine restaurants, expensive entertainment, and luxury travel. They may value exclusivity and separation from the masses and the whole. World elites often do not participate in regenerating the world because they do not feel interconnectedand interrelated with the whole.

• The Conscious Evolution – Thinking & Feeling – Research & Development Center will be a place for them to invest their time, talent and money in a higher calling – Earth regeneration and the enlightenment of humanity.


FINDING SOLUTIONS

• The United Nations and nations are not solving many problems.

• Some think tanks recognize that by providing startup fundingfor programs, and then leaving communities, the programs arenot sustainable.

• Many dysfunctional areas around the world that drive emigration have significant corruption, organized crime and great conflict.

• Gangs may become economic development opportunities for desperate people.

• Local Problem-Solving Groups could the teach communication skills to help people empathetically understand each other needs, that are driving them to sometimes use unhealthy strategies.

• Synergistic solutions may be able to be found with patient, authentic communication and Regional Summits of stakeholders.


ECONOMICS

• “Profits have gone up, stock prices have soared, [CEO] compensationis stratospheric – but workers get a smaller and smaller share of the wealth they create and they’re working harder than ever. Under the current system, Wall Street profits no matter what happens to workers, because those profits now come at the expense of workers.” - Sherrod Brown, Chair, US Senate Committee on Banking

• In the US, CEO compensation has grown 940% since 1978. In 2019, US CEO-to-typical-worker compensation was 320-to-1, up from 293-to-1 in 2018, 61-to-1 in 1989, 21-to-1 in 1965.

• 70% of people in the world have no investments.

• The Fed estimates that the wealthiest 10% of Americans hold more than 88% of all available equity in corporations and mutual fund shares. The top 1% control more than twice as much equity as the bottom 50% of all Americans combined.

• Doughnut Economics and Worker-Owed Cooperatives may help create economic opportunities for people while balancing Earth’s needs.


D o u g h n u t E c o n o m i c s

DOUGHNUT ECONOMICS

• The Doughnut, or Doughnut Economics, is a visual framework for sustainable development –shaped like a doughnut or lifebelt –combining the concept of planetary boundaries with the complementary concept of social boundaries.

• The name derives from the shape of the diagram, a disc with a hole in the middle.

• The center hole of the model depicts the proportion of people that lack access to life's essentials (healthcare, education, equity and so on) while the crust represents the ecological ceilings (planetary boundaries) that life depends on and must not be overshot.

• We need to balance Human Needs and Earth’s Needs.

Beyond the boundary Boundary not quantified

D o u g h n u t E c o n o m i c s

RELIGIONS

• Eighty-five percent of the 8.2 billion humans on Earth are followers one of the 4,300 religions, with the top 20 religions having 6.6 billion followers.

• These religions work hard to keep their followers from drifting away to other religions. They do that by claiming they are the only correct religion, and all the other 4000+ religions are wrong. They preach peace, compassion, loving-kindness, charity and seeking wisdom, but they may hate each other, go to Holly War, and then kill each other.

• Meanwhile, the Earth is suffering, about to go into biospheric collapse.

• The whole point of religions are to try to explain the creation, andhow humans should relate to the creation, and each other.

• If the 85% of people who believe that a god created the creation, including Earth – or that the land, sea and air are sacred – then they should be willing to love, honor and protect that creation, including Earth, and each other, that were all created by the creation.


RELIGIONS II

• Humans seek to understand the origin of the creation, how to relate to the creation, and how to relate to each other.

• They seek to develop sacred relations with what created the universe, the 70 billion trillion stars, the Earth, themselves and others.

• All religions use stories, to build up layers of meaning on top of each other. They layer unproved sets of notions on top of each other, adding rituals and ceremonies, essentially inducing a delusional state.

• Then people can become compliant, because they are afraid of being kicked out of the group. Group-think sets in, and they then become complicit, collisional, and cooperative in schemes to propagate the religion.

• All religions develop complex structures of delusional thinking –virtual realities for their followers.

• They all then propose their virtual reality is correct, and all the other religions are incorrect virtual realities.


THE MIDDLE CLASS

• The middle class do not receive a high-quality education.

• They are often inculcated into a religion. They don’t see the virtual reality that has been fitted onto them like lenses they nowsee through.

• They often feel “less than” and “not good enough.” They are then indoctrinated to seek expensive consumer brands to feel elevated.

• They live for weekend entertainment and trips to get away from the “rat race.”

• They become divided into political groups.

• They follow the media that fits their political group. All this reinforces their virtual reality.

• A few may learn about mindfulness and consciousness.

• Very few would understand the concept of “Conscious Evolution.”

W e l l - O f f

In the U.S., local public school funding is

based on levels of property taxes in the community, producing three levels of

quality of education.

High-wealth communities can also afford private

extra tutoring.

54% of the federal discretionary budget goes to the military.

5% goes to education.

Many people in the U.S.do not receive

high-quality education.


THREE EDUCATION SYSTEMS

• In Consumer Cultures, many people are experiencinga crisis in relationships with difficulty forming and sustaining healthy, loving relationships, culminating in less marriage.

• The image of a life of luxuryhas made people seek partners capable of affording a celebrity-like lifestyle.

• Unfortunately, that quest leaves most people with few intra-personal skills and inter-personal relationship skills.

• A new Culture of Hate is being fueled by binary issue-based political parties and their mega fundraising, and profits derived from the mass media and social media binary hate narratives.
