How would an ideal community of the future look like?
Below you find a collection of different topic areas central to human life. For each topic I noted the most integral and organic, i.e. most sensible, approaches I have come across. When possible I denoted the best and mystical (deepest) approach as well as the best integral-explicit approach. For all who find it hard to trust the innate intelligence of life and humans, such explicit approaches might give you a glimpse of the complexity that the deep approaches manage to integrate through natural intelligence. If you need to convince some sceptical brickhead insensitive to feelings of beauty and truth, these explicit concepts might also serve as helpful resource to make a point.
These concepts and approaches are meant as inspiration, knowledge collection and cornerstones of a humane, loving and living future for humanity on planet earth (and possibly beyond).
