The Civilization of the Pulse

Reweaving Life, Love, and the Sacred Architecture of Coherence

This document presents The Civilization of the Pulse, a visionary exploration of how humanity can reconnect with its inner coherence through love, care, and emotional intelligence. It emphasizes the need for a radical shift in our economic, political, and social systems to foster a more nurturing and interconnected world. The book combines insights from various disciplines, including psychology, economics, and ecology, to propose a new paradigm for living that honors the sacredness of life and the importance of emotional coherence.

The Pulse and Its Significance

The concept of the “Pulse” symbolizes the rhythm of life that has been forgotten in modern civilization. It represents the deep connection between all living beings and the earth, advocating for a return to emotional and spiritual awareness as a foundation for a regenerative future. The book argues that our current systems have led to a collective disconnection from this pulse, resulting in societal and environmental crises.

The Loss of Coherence

The narrative outlines how humanity has strayed from its inner compass due to the rise of the Ruling Group Mind (RGM), which prioritizes control and profit over emotional and ecological well-being. This disconnection manifests in various forms, including chronic illness, social anxiety, and ecological degradation. The text emphasizes that the restoration of coherence is crucial for healing both individuals and communities.

Frameworks for Regeneration

The document integrates key frameworks such as Life-Value Onto-Axiology (LVOA), which assesses value based on its capacity to enhance life, and Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), which advocates for public provisioning without the constraints of traditional economic models. These frameworks aim to realign our systems with the principles of care, compassion, and sustainability.

Practical Solutions Offered

Practical solutions are provided throughout the text, including civic templates for governance that prioritize emotional coherence, policy blueprints grounded in care, and educational curricula designed to nurture humanity’s innate capacities. The emphasis is on creating systems that foster connection, healing, and belonging, which are seen as essential for a flourishing civilization.

The Role of Emotional Intelligence

Emotional intelligence is presented as a vital component of the new civilization. The Natural Sentience Guidance System (NSGS) is introduced as a means to harness emotions as a guiding force for decision-making and ethical behavior. The book highlights the importance of recognizing emotions as valuable data that inform our actions and relationships.

The Commons as a Foundation

The text reimagines the Commons not merely as a resource but as a living relationship that requires stewardship and reverence. It argues for a shift from privatization and commodification towards a shared understanding of communal resources that support life and well-being. This perspective invites readers to engage in practices that honor the sacredness of the Commons.

Conclusion: A Call to Action

In conclusion, The Civilization of the Pulse serves as a call to action for individuals and communities to remember their connection to the pulse of life. It encourages readers to engage in practices of care, compassion, and emotional intelligence as they work towards a more coherent and loving world. The narrative emphasizes that the future of humanity depends on our ability to foster these values in every aspect of our lives

Emotion: The Self-regulatory Sense | Katherine Peil Kauffman | emotionalsentience.com

Katherine T. Peil is the founding Director of non-profit EFS International, whose mission is fostering global emotional wisdom. From a background in Pantheistic spirituality and clinical and social psychology, her lengthy interdisciplinary inquiry into the biophysical substrates of emotion led to the identification of its previously mysterious biological function: as an ancient “self-regulatory sense” – an evaluative perceptual mechanism through which living systems directly participate in self-organizing and evolutionary processes, and one that invites deeper inquiries into the physics of consciousness. This new science also casts light upon innate “biovalues, which scientific methodology has long avoided, as well as vital processes that in-form common spiritual experiences, and the healthy development of empathic moral conscience. It provides a biophysically informed vision of “naturalistic spiritualty”, one that echoes the common wisdom across the great religious traditions, while challenging such time honored assumptions as “sin” and the “good and evil” dichotomy.

A former affiliate of Northeastern University and the Harvard Divinity School, Ms. Peil has spoken internationally on the function, evolution, physio-chemical, and informational nature of emotion, as well as its central role in optimal health, human development, moral reasoning, universal spiritual experiences, and its informative value toward creating nonviolence in a global village. – http://consciousnesscongress.org/session/emotional-sentience-the-nature-of-consciousness/
