Many Faces of MOM
Join us for an inspiring presentation exploring The Many Faces of MOM, a powerful metaphor for the Magic in Ordinary Moments and the wisdom that guides us. Discover how we, as part of #TheOneWeAre, can co-create a world of healing, connection, and transformation.
Learn about Our Heart Gardens (OhGs)—spaces where we nurture both people and the planet, blending mythology, storytelling, and action to cultivate a thriving future. Through the lenses of 369 Composition, ancient wisdom, and the promise of peace from MOM and Mother Gaia, we will explore the essential role of community, movement, and the power of listening.
This journey is an invitation—to see the magic in your life, embrace your unique role, and help create a world where healing and connection flourish. Join us...

Communing with the ETs in Taos
Today we will talk with Birdie Jaworski, founder of TransDimensional Mapping, one of the leading organizations in the world on remote viewing to communicate with Extraterrestrial beings. She is leading an in person learning journey May 1-4 in Taos, New Mexico during which we will all deepen our awareness of remote viewing and create an intent to communication with ETs. Taos is one of the “hot spots” for ET contact. TransDimensional Mapping is a strategic partner in Ubiquity’s ET Studies Program.
Birdie will also talk about her participation in our pilgrimage to Chartres July 6-12 where she will join Veda Austin as lead faculty on the living intelligence of water. Water can be a portal for communication with other dimensions and other intelligences. This will be a phenomenal opportunity to deepen our awareness about how intelligent and compassionate the water we take so much for granted really is.

Humanity Rising 1114:
Angels, Demons, and the Problem of Evil
If a loving Deity exists, are there also heavenly legions of compassionate angels? According to secular modernity, such a God is a human projection, and angel’s lives don’t matter and don’t exist—nor do those of demons. An integral worldview may affirm the existence of benign Deities or interdimensional beings—but what about the biblical myth of rebellious angels, or Nephilim, who sponsor evil in opposition to Deity? Can it be that such off-planet beings foment some portion of the horrendous evils we see on earth, sometimes working in collusion with dark ETs? Or is evil always sourced from the depths of the human heart and from lower-right-quadrant systems that are unjust? In this talk, these and other possibilities are unified in an original four-quadrant model of integral theodicy (i.e., the problem of evil in theology). We’ll also survey the history of the problem of evil, ranging from pre-modern biblical Christianity to the postmodern teaching known as The Urantia Book, plus a glance at Buddhist views of evil and the reality of angels and demons.
Byron Belitsos is the author of Truths about Evil, Sin, and the Demonic (Wipf & Stock, 2023) and Your Evolving Soul (Origin Press, 2017), and the prize-winning editor and publisher of numerous other titles. He holds a B.A. in history of ideas from the University of Chicago and an M.A. in systematic theology from Union Theological Seminary in New York City. He was an inaugural member of Ken Wilber’s Integral Institute and is founder of Rodan Institute. Byron has appeared on Gaiam TV and Coast-to-Coast AM Radio and will speak on the topic of angels and demons at Contact in the Desert. His forthcoming book is entitled Discernment of Spirits.

Humanity Rising 1118
Sacred Activism & The Divine Feminine in Balance with Masculine Qualities
In an awakening world where traditional paradigms are shifting, the Divine Feminine’s qualities of deep wisdom and empathy empower women to challenge outdated systems while offering innovative solutions rooted in care and inclusivity. This awakening encourages the honoring of emotional intelligence as a vital leadership competency, allowing women to bring authenticity and vulnerability into spaces where they have often been undervalued. By embracing the richness of the Divine Feminine’s attributes, women changemakers are not just breaking barriers; they are redefining leadership itself, creating new paradigms that honor the masculine and the feminine as well as the seen and unseen forces shaping humanity’s evolution.

As you can see, we are designing Humanity Rising to be reiterative. We will continue to come together around strategy, new mindsets and effective solutions through the end of August. In September, we will assess where the world is, what issues are critical to address, and how we can more effectively work together in the spirit of radical collaboration.
