LP and its Foundations

The Lightning Path is a pedagogical experiment, a response to a call to action to create authentically transformative academic level content[1] but delivered in a grounded and accessible package. The LP is a response to the call for "technology" to facilitate a "Consciousness Revolution"[2]. It is a "Radical intervention" designed to "accelerate a rapid social transformation to avoid the dire outcomes currently forecast"[3] The LP provides a "paradigm shift,"[4] not just towards climate justice as an organizing paradigm but to one that fundamentally shifts our ideas about human potential, human spirituality, and what it means to be human.

The goal of the LP is global transformation. Lightning Path curriculum is focused on Healing trauma and preparing the Bodily Ego so that it can achieve strong and permanent Connection with its own Spiritual Ego.

The LP is a response to Maslow's call for "mass techniques" of helping. Noting that most people can't avail themselves of expensive psychoanalysis, Abraham Maslow suggested that "...we must turn our attention more and more to mass techniques of helping the person to discover this precious human nature deep within himself-this, nature that he is afraid of expressing."[5] The Lightning Path is designed to be such a "mass technique."

The Lightning is still in development. It currently consists of a carefully knit collection of courses, workbooks, Rocket Guides, and this SpiritWiki.

The LP is still in development.
