Tune in and take part in this transformative exploration of human potential and unity. We are all relatives; we all come from the same Source. Whether we agree on the name or not, we're one planet, one people. This is our opportunity to step up and demonstrate intelligence in unity. Today, science has bridged the gap with spirituality, and what quantum physics, quantum mechanics, and Quantum Sciences are beginning to reveal is what Vedantic philosophy has held all along: we are all energy, emanating from the same Source. Each of us is a divine thread, incarnate, with the capacity to be gods and goddesses through the Consciousness we embody. We face challenges in understanding our purpose, often constrained by societal and organizational structures, whether corporate or religious. With a vision of “One World,” we can share the responsibility that brings each of us to a level of personal accountability. Rather than calling this a New Age, we might better call it the “Age of Accountability”—a time to be responsible for what we do and how we act. Welcome to "One World in a New World," where ambition meets innovation in co-creating a new normal. Here, we explore the “thoughtmosphere,” embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery, and embrace harmony—with ourselves, with others, and with Mother Earth. Zen Benefiel skillfully guides these conversations, revealing personal journeys and perspectives through enlightening “apocalyptic chats,” inspiring listeners to seek knowledge and wisdom in their own lives. Join us in this transformative journey as we delve into the depths of the human experience, exploring the inner and outer realities and bridging them through conscious understanding.
