A Conversation with Deepak Chopra, joining the Evolutionary Leaders Network and More
Dear friends,
As I stepped into this new year and my different projects - in particular Politics of Being - are doing great, I felt very grateful and also came with a single resolution for 2023 : enjoy ! And be able to walk my path of service with ever more trust, lightness and grace, especially in a world in which our seeds of sadness and fear can so easily be watered.
Being hosted by Deepak Chopra on his podcast was a truly joyful moment, one to celebrate. We spoke about the politics of being, which he very much endorses and supports. He said that:
“Anyone who is interested in preventing our collective consciousness sleepwalking to extinction should read this book. It is a very important, practical treatise, […] a wonderful book. [...] If it reaches a critical mass, we could indeed hope for a more peaceful, just, sustainable, healthier and joyful world”.
He even mentioned a potential collaboration with his foundation. “You have an amazing future to bring about change to the world”: his words nourished my trust in this work and what it is called to become. It was such a nice conversation with him; he had my book with him and I could tell he had really read it with attention. This happened only because I sent him the book to him - at his foundation’s address - with a personal message. Noone introduced me to him. Politics of Being magic at work !

Another joyful step has been for me to join the evolutionary leaders network, after having been nominated by Kurt Johnson and Jefff Genung. This network is bringing together some of the most influential thought leaders - in particular from the West, including people like Deepak Chopra, Bruce Lipton, Thomas Hübl or Ervin Laslow (and also some less famous like me :) ) - to support a shift in consciousness. We have been received very beautifully and I feel very honored to be part of this amazing network, in which I will engage particularly with the SDG thought leaders circle.
The evolutionary leaders network is closely connected with Light on Light Press which is just publishing The Holomovement: Embracing Our Collective Purpose to Unite Humanity, in which I am a named contributor together with leading authors such as Jude Currivan, Duane Elgin, Ervin Laszlo, Lynne Twist or Ken Wilber. It is now available for Booksellers for Pre-order on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Do check it out!
The Politics of Being has also been featured in the new issue of the Light on Light Magazine, which is edited by my dear friend Denise Scotto from the International Day of Yoga Committee. You can read it online here.
Finally you may also check this podcast : "The Middle Way with Dr. Matthew Goodman”. We talked in particular about the necessity to reduce social and political polarization, and how a politics of being and individual behaviors can support this and advance our collective wellbeing.
Wishing you all the best as the days grow longer in the Northern Hemisphere and nature begins to awaken. May we harness this deep and powerful force from the Earth for our collective transformation.
With love and gratitude
Thomas
