About World 5.0
World 5.0 is the most important idea of our time. It leverages the idea of an operating system, and applies it to our global culture. Our previous cultures were Neolithic, Agrarian, Medieval and we now witness the crumbling of World4, the Industrial Age, all around us.
Based on The Three Truths, and enabled by this fabulous new tool The InterWeb, we can use this idea to replace the turmoil and abuse of the world4 culture with a far more equitable and enjoyable one. Our intent is to be present to the Reality of This Moment, to awaken ourselves and our families, and to heal our communities, ecologies and our Earth through Peace and Love. The only true freedom is freedom from fear.
On the personal side, we appreciate the power of our intent, and leverage it to determine our experience right now. After all, the time is always Now. The answer is always Love.
On the planetary side, we restore community and ecology with two strategies. First, we spend our money locally, eating at local restaurants and buying local goods and services as much as possible. Second, we create a people powered movement to reconstitute government. Only then will government be an honest moderator between community and commercial interests.
So, the term World5 applies to both our personal reality, and to the effort of transforming our world. We hold Integrity, Justice and Balance as principles that guide our transactions and relationships. And we support intelligent design - design based on health and sustainability as opposed to design whose only goal is to further enrich the rich.
As we shift to the World5 mindset, the old patterns of abuseand corruption dissipate, and new patterns of healing emerge. We find formerly insurmountable problems as challenges we relish, with new-found passion and clarity of purpose.
The term World 5.0, then, has several connotations. It is another term for Life in this Moment. It describes this epochal awakening. It describes our emerging operating system. It understands the power of our intent. And it is the name for the operating system intended to reconstitute government so that we may restore community and ecology.
And now we have the Occupy Movement, a powerful, spontaneous, bottom-up movement that is the natural result of the abuses and excesses of the Industrial Age, World4.
About the Founder
World 5.0 is the mind child of Jim Prues, a long-time seeker and finder of Peace and Love. It's been incubating for over seven years.
The idea of World 5.0 struck me when I realized the idea of an operating system could be applied to our civilization. Since then, it's been about finding meaning, context and clarity.
The times demand it. While this idea was not likely have occurred to just anyone, it could have come to any number of us who appreciate the power of Now and the quiet mind.
