I recently quit my job because I was burnt out and literally could not continue doing something that felt like it was killing my spirit and contributing to all I didn't want to see happen in this world. I'm so glad I came across Charles' work. He has given a voice to the feelings I couldn't quite express, and assurance that I'm not crazy, I've awakened to a bigger calling, and for once I am answering.
I quit mine in 2001 for exactly the same reason as you! Congrats, a new chapter begins. in that first ten years, I discovered Barbara Marciniack's book "The Bringers of the Dawn", Dolores Cannon, Dr. Brian Weiss ("Many Masters Many Lives"), Michael Newton (Journey of the Souls), Eckhart Tolle (The Power of Now)...I am grateful for everyone like you that closes the door on the matrix, and embrace our true nature----which is that we are eternal beings here on earth to have a human experience. Have fun, do not be fearful, there is no death, only transformation.
I love how Mooji says “Do not strain yourself to improve this world. Know yourself completely and then your actions spring from this spontaneity, from this depth. From this understanding, you will shower blessings upon this world.”
seems most of the improvement have made it worse, as we distance ourselves from nature which still reads of being our soul support on the face of this earth
This movie and the Being who is imparting knowledge in this movie, was the MOST inspired I have felt in quite some time. Listen carefully with your heart open and will feel a shift at a deeper level inside yourself. TRUTH!
Hi Raji I agree with you. Charles Eisenstein is right on the money. This is a spiritual crisis and it will only be solved with a spiritual solution. Our world has entered the dark heart of an age of fundamental change beyond anything in all of its tumultuous history. Its peoples, of whatever race, nation ,or religion, are being challenged to subordinate all lesser loyalties and limiting identities to their oneness as citizens of a single planetary homeland [ The Universal house of justice 2019]. In Baha"u'llahs words [in the 1800s] "The well being of mankind, its peace and security, are unattainable unless and until its unity is firmly established.
I searched him in youtube because I just read one of his books, The Yoga of Eating. His writing is really profound and provoking. Many thoughts that have come lingering at the back of your head for years he put into words in a straightforward way and he connects all of it with such clear sense.
Nai Xo I haven’t read any of Charles’ books yet but from what he said in this, really great interview., I totally agree. It was a joy to discover this interview. I have massive respect for Jordan and Annette deciding to put the whole interview online, free. Rare and deeply wonderful.
His writing is really even better than this. He inevitably rambles here. His writing is very economical. Read his essay "Coronation" about the caronavirus crisis.
Just finished his book "The more beautiful world our hearts know is possible" and it's undoubtedly one of the most important and profound books I've read. It actually as if spoke my heart's language.
I am so appreciative of your questions and his ability to weave it all together to make sense. He is not an alarmist and is so palatable. I so appreciate him speaking into reality the words that my heart aches with.... thank you thank you thank you!
We hope you get as much from this interview as we did! Below are a list of questions we asked Charles: 1:06 - What are the 'old story' and 'new story' that you describe in your writing? 14:37 - Where does the sense that a better world is possible come from? 19:16 - What guides us in the space between stories to creating the new story? 21:11 - How did the world get to where it is now? 28:20 - Do you think advancements in technology can solve the problems we're facing? 33:50 - Do you see the current money system as a symptom of separation? 37:50 - What could an alternative system look like? Would the current system need to collapse to make way for the new? 43:24 - Can individual action create big change? 48:14 - What is the wound of separation and how do we see it expressed in society? 54:32 - What do you advise people to do in times of not knowing what to do? 1:01:33 - Can doing nothing take you to a place of knowing what to do? 1:06:39 - When you imagine the new story, what does it look like?
This is above and beyond, I love the effort you went to for the viewer’s ease of navigation/reference! You have me as a new subscriber, from this video
Happen Films Huge thanks for making the full interview available and free!!! It’s a huge gift and deeply wonderful. This gave me so so much joy; Charles’ spoke what I felt but couldn’t quite understand let alone communicate. Bravo!!! Thank you again!!
Omg, these are the exact ideas what've been on my mind for the last 3-5 years, I just had no courage to acknowledge them and express properly!! A huge thanks from the bottom of my heart to the creators of the video and the speaker!
Nearly 6 years ago and still totally relevant. Thank you Charles for applying yourself to the task of discerning the real from the unreal and expressing it in ways that are accessible. Thank you Mattias for your wonderful films, I'm so glad you became a film-maker.
Finally found a moment to watch this and so glad I did! Gosh I wish all doco interviews were available like this instead of perfect sound bites... watching a mind that grasps so many threads, roll ideas and next thoughts through their face is just so much more real and relatable - Ant I look forward to catching up with you soon and chatting about this!
I'm throughout this interview reminded of the great Murray Bookchin who developed the theory and framework of social ecology, whose thesis is that ecological crisis stem from the social crisis that started way back when humanity began forming hierarchies in early societies. I can definitely recommend reading him! And also of course, the vast amount of indigenous thinkers who've spoken and written about this for ages!
I feel i was just experiencing a wonderful living glimpse of the new story 😱😍🥰. Thank you for inspiring me again&again and over and over. You make me want to jump into our garden and tell the plants “mommy loves you all🥳” and the forest around it. And talk to the trees and listen to their stories in the next few weeks. I want to stop working for money... take care of my home. IT calls me and want to be my Ikigai. Thank you Mr C. Eisenstein. On behalf of our interbeings community 🧚🏾♀️🧚♂️🦉🐹🦋🐛🕸🐞🐸🕷🐝🍀🌱🌿🦔🌞🌖🌛✨🌹🌲🐾🐁🐿🌤⛈🌈🌏had no idea! I want a to join you to tell new story..🙋🏻♀️
So good to hear you speak again Charles. It is always fascinating and thought-provoking, if a little frightening, to envision the type of change that you foretell. As you say, my heart knows that it is possible, that things should be different than they are, but oh the path to get there from here! Likely to be very messy. Namaste my friend.
"What do you want, pee?" so profound. I'm so grateful to be reminded of all this that is in my heart and resounding as the truth that will bring the beauty I dream of. Someone told me once, "Always ask before everything you do." Life deserves that kind of consideration.
I don't know about intelligent just caring he's too silly to know the big pharma doesn't want to cure disease they're making money they don't care about carrying it they're they're inventing drugs to treat the symptoms of disease they have no interest in curing disease it's being naive not intelligent.
So Powerful and so needed as the Truth always is! I've read a couple of his books already and now I will certainly check out your films. Obrigado from Brazil!
This is such a beautiful video! Thank you both to Charles and Happen Films! I wish that more people see this, even though I feel that a lot of us are already acting in accordance/harmony with Nature
At 54:00 Charles talks about 'not knowing what to do' and how it creates humility. Can you imagine that? World leaders coming together and publicly admitting we don't have all the answers?
maybe we ought be listening to 5 year olds. . if it isn't important to them , ought it to us why are we taking serious men with a noose around their necks tying us all up in kNOTs when nature as always provides us with the instant out. death, or another breath of fresh air
You are doing a great job. Thanks for sharing this.. i truely belive that the enviornmental and economical crisis which ia not too far will help us move from one story to another.
As I was listening to the final moments of this, as Charles was talking about a place that you love so much that you would only journey from there when something so out of the ordinary happened to motivate you to leave, my mind went to one of my favorite fiction books, The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings series. Seems Tolkien had a sense of the things Charles is alluding to here. From the much loved land, and the strong personal knowing of each other as in the Shire, to the love of beauty , and doing exquisite works for the sheer love of it of the elves of Rivendell.
Thank you for sharing ! Such amazing insight and there are many who are seeing the " New future " - what if - everyone were to do " their passion" as a healing process and had no other requirement? This should become the new language.
Charles Eisenstein is one of the few who gave ideas about the possible solutions of our social crises, and the worst of them is the social separation habit between people.
wow this is a summary of everything ive been learning in this past year. I am so grateful to you all for putting this content together and allowing us to experience this information.
SOOOOOOO good(!!) to hear this, and that’s a huge understatement. Jumping out of my skin actually!!! The truth feels SOOOO fresh / energetic / exciting 🙏🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This just feels so very true. No matter what, the world will shift and we shall change, but in creating the world around us we can create something so very beautiful and so very pure. One day, hundreds maybe thousands of years from now our ancestors may profit from the seeds we have been nourishing to create such a rich and thriving world, where we may all just be able to be and live to do what gives us a sense of all around well being. We just have to work a little harder than they will but whichever the century you were born, we all have the ability to dream up what we wish to do during our own lives and just be and have our actions line up with where our gut is pulling us. All we need is action, creativity to dream up our worlds and the resilience and laughter which will help to pull us through : ) Now! Go write down all which you are excited to do and be in your lifetime!
Bravo!!! This is exactly what I’ve been trying to say, but I’m too blunt and panicky about it. Thank you for saying it so eloquently! The number one top priority is #BanGlyphosate
Such a fan of Charles's perspective. So refreshing. Especially now in this political climate. Neither "side" is helping us be less Separate or less Polarized. His conversations are much needed.
At 23:10 Charles says "So I don't know how the transition is going to proceed, but I know that...it's um, nearing its send." During that pause in the ellipses, one can see a micro-emotion play over his face which looks like, well I'm not sure what. Some kind of complex melancholy ending in a smile. I keep watching it, wondering, "what does he SEE right then?" He knows something most of us don't, you can see it as a glimmer in his eye.
With the grace of Fred Rogers, Charles Eisenstein demonstrates kindness and empathetic deference. Being present is reassurance. With a deep analytic understanding of the origins of our social dismay, his speculations on the future remain reassuringly non-deterministic. A positive supposition is implied by simply acknowledging our unconscious void: that we collectively grieve the loss of our humanity and connection to meaning. Imbibe... and synergistic creation or feelings of harmony arise. The inference is magical. Empathetic dexterity is a gift of joy to behold.
With all due respect, I feel that you should change the title. This is a life changing talk and should have millions of views. I'm sending this to everyone I know. Thank you.
Thank you for mitigating the intense separation between Gaia, Omniscience & Humanities. I will imbibe innumerable pieces of Peace while building greater unity in CommUNITY while playing in this new-ish story other beings refer to as the paradisiacal playground of pure epic abunDANCE💥
Charles, love you! Also, please stop speaking about Indigenous people, views, and epistemology as something that was or used to be in the past. Indigenous people are alive, organized, and acting deliberately for the benefit of everyone today. You suggest that the answers come from the margins. How about interviewing, centering, and getting behind Indigenous leaders and be an example to others from dominant world views, about how to be a good accomplice. Please, everyone, lets ackowledge the presence and work of the people who never strayed from the story of Interbeing. Thank you.
That’s real talk sister! They’re still here, they just go mostly unnoticed because the machine is so loud. Whenever I can I retreat from the matrix to be amongst those who remember and still know who we really are…
Your sweater is tres' chic. My huge amount of storage has to go, now I have to hire someone and pay for all my family sentimental items to be taken away so I can get out of being held hostage by ancestors - the neurotic collections of photos and art and writings of so many years of experiences. This is bringing me to when to get time - strength to get back to the garden. First I need to take care of parental obligations so I can have a place to stay warm. I have to contribute my gifts - sculpting and beautifying the environment.
Listen to what's really being said here: Collapse is necessary for positive change. Ambition is the antithesis of love. The things of value are all the things that have been marginalized. (i.e. flip the hierarchy) Be careful, and know what you're getting into.
12:46 - The "self" of a parent expands to include the son... that's called love.. his happiness is my happiness.. his suffering is my suffering,,, the future of humanity is to return to nature.. to fall in love with the world..
THIS IS OUR COLLECTIVE CRYSTAL FUTURE! Homo Sapien to Homo Divinicus. Outstanding information. Excellent presentation. Every human is free, divine, and powerful. We are ONE. Peace out.💜
What gone awry in our human societies, what other forms of knowledge, values, and interrelation might form the basis of a more just and reciprocal relationship between land and people. These days the experience of alienation is common. Most of us no longer walk upon the land our ancestors once did nor drink from their streams. Many of us do not know the people we live near, let alone the lands and waters we live upon. Yet, we long to belong. We seek home everywhere we go. Underneath this yearning lies a sense that we exist to be part of something greater than ourselves. As members of global societies that separate us by nationality, region, gender, race, economics, education, religion, politics, and position, how do we connect to the lands and waters, to the living community, to each other, and to ourselves?
This is amazing. “ Money is artificially scarce.” Yep - except when those in power are in need or just decide it’s in their best interest. Then it seems $ is made abundant.
I think that "the space between stories" may be a metaphor for at least two concepts... 1) Antonio Gramsci's interregnum: the period after the illusion of legitimacy of governance is broken, yet expectant the time when new coalitions take hold, and 2) the intermission between hegemonic civilizations, without expectation of coelesecence. I'm curious about his thoughts on the 6th extinction.
the one thing it all ties together is that moral relativism should NOT be the makeup of our aggregate world view. that there is such a thing as truth about what it is that causes suffering. that morality is: do not harm & respect all sentient beings, that said (being as we are ever seeking to grow) lets at the very least focus on our treatment of fellow man and larger animals (all mammals...) and not go out of our way to harm the "lesser" sentient beings like insects... but rather find alternative solutions than say use pesticides. and that laws must reflect this and not be arbitrary/that mere opinions of few are to be accepted, Laws must recognize that birth rights DO exist.
I really love this! Concerning the reason people started to live longer, I would like to contribute that it was because of better hygiene, food and homes.
I just know a beautiful wotld is possible because I carry some sort of memory in me that tells me I have lived in paradise before. Somehow humanity took the wrong exit and now we're nearing the time where we achieved enough awareness to see this and make new choices
I recently quit my job because I was burnt out and literally could not continue doing something that felt like it was killing my spirit and contributing to all I didn't want to see happen in this world. I'm so glad I came across Charles' work. He has given a voice to the feelings I couldn't quite express, and assurance that I'm not crazy, I've awakened to a bigger calling, and for once I am answering.

Hi Raji I agree with you.
Charles Eisenstein is right on the money. This is a spiritual crisis and it will only be solved with a spiritual solution.
Our world has entered the dark heart of an age of fundamental change beyond anything in all of its tumultuous history. Its peoples, of whatever race, nation ,or religion, are being challenged to subordinate all lesser loyalties and limiting identities to their oneness as citizens of a single planetary homeland [ The Universal house of justice 2019].
In Baha"u'llahs words [in the 1800s] "The well being of mankind, its peace and security, are unattainable unless and until its unity is firmly established.

Get out there and speak what’s on your mind. We need more people doing that.
I feel the same after reading his book "The more beautiful world our hearts know is possible" .. you described how I felt after reading it perfectly.
Good lord! Such a brilliant man indeed! Blessings for uploading this.🙏

You are doing a great job. Thanks for sharing this.. i truely belive that the enviornmental and economical crisis which ia not too far will help us move from one story to another.
"the world doesn't work the way we've been told" this is a brilliant interview.
As I was listening to the final moments of this, as Charles was talking about a place that you love so much that you would only journey from there when something so out of the ordinary happened to motivate you to leave, my mind went to one of my favorite fiction books, The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings series.

From the much loved land, and the strong personal knowing of each other as in the Shire, to the love of beauty , and doing exquisite works for the sheer love of it of the elves of Rivendell.
I had exactly the same thought.
Oh man I love this interview, SO insightful
This talk resonates with me on every level. Goosebumps allover....
Thank you so much for this interview. ❤
Thank you for sharing ! Such amazing insight and there are many who are seeing the " New future " - what if - everyone were to do " their passion" as a healing process and had no other requirement? This should become the new language.

Thanks for the good work you do. Please continue to make these films. They are critical
Excellent. Very clear thinking and so well said

This video is so so important
My mind is blowing, but is just because I've realized that those ideas already are in! beautiful. thanks!!
Is there a fly in the room? 😂 I love Charles 😎 thank you!!
yep. saw it about 27:30
My heart always „knew“ about this connection and interbeing. 💚
Such a fan of Charles's perspective. So refreshing. Especially now in this political climate. Neither "side" is helping us be less Separate or less Polarized. His conversations are much needed.
Wow this video is just what I needed 🌘
I am grateful to seeing this,, it has given me hope.
Love you Charles xoxoxox thank you: we can generate all of this. xoxoxo

Thankful to U- Happen Films..to U Charles! Hugs from Ukraine...
thank you ! love from karnataka !
The shift from ego (and collective ego) to awareness ✨
With all due respect, I feel that you should change the title. This is a life changing talk and should have millions of views. I'm sending this to everyone I know. Thank you.
the section on disease is interesting in the current moment. the Coronation is an excellent essay/speech as well.
I never get tired of listening to Charles Eisenstein, better than tv.
50:02 is where my tears began to fall. This is the part many of us know so deeply and intimately.
Love is the answer. “Just a shift of perception away”
Thank you Charles !!!!
I've already noticed a bit of a shift towards beauty in everyday objects. In fact evern the word "artisan" is popping up more.
So nice to hear intelligent conversation.
such a gift. thank you.
Thank you for mitigating the intense separation between Gaia, Omniscience & Humanities. I will imbibe innumerable pieces of Peace while building greater unity in CommUNITY while playing in this new-ish story other beings refer to as the paradisiacal playground of pure epic abunDANCE💥

So much goodness in all of this. Kapai 👏🏻

They’re still here, they just go mostly unnoticed because the machine is so loud.
Whenever I can I retreat from the matrix to be amongst those who remember and still know who we really are…
This is premonitory 💜
Brilliant! Wow Charles .... just wow!
Your sweater is tres' chic.
My huge amount of storage has to go, now I have to hire someone and pay for all my family sentimental items to be taken away so I can get out of being held hostage by ancestors - the neurotic collections of photos and art and writings of so many years of experiences. This is bringing me to when to get time - strength to get back to the garden. First I need to take care of parental obligations so I can have a place to stay warm. I have to contribute my gifts - sculpting and beautifying the environment.
Listen to what's really being said here:
Collapse is necessary for positive change.
Ambition is the antithesis of love.
The things of value are all the things that have been marginalized. (i.e. flip the hierarchy)
Be careful, and know what you're getting into.
Thank you.
12:46 - The "self" of a parent expands to include the son... that's called love.. his happiness is my happiness.. his suffering is my suffering,,, the future of humanity is to return to nature.. to fall in love with the world..
This is AMAZING.
THIS IS OUR COLLECTIVE CRYSTAL FUTURE! Homo Sapien to Homo Divinicus.
Outstanding information. Excellent presentation.
Every human is free, divine, and powerful. We are ONE. Peace out.💜
Thank you :)
Wow. This is Alan Watts level dope!
Couldn't have put it better myself
What gone awry in our human societies, what other forms of knowledge, values, and interrelation might form the basis of a more just and reciprocal relationship between land and people.
These days the experience of alienation is common. Most of us no longer walk upon the land our ancestors once did nor drink from their streams. Many of us do not know the people we live near, let alone the lands and waters we live upon. Yet, we long to belong. We seek home everywhere we go. Underneath this yearning lies a sense that we exist to be part of something greater than ourselves. As members of global societies that separate us by nationality, region, gender, race, economics, education, religion, politics, and position, how do we connect to the lands and waters, to the living community, to each other, and to ourselves?
This is amazing. “ Money is artificially scarce.” Yep - except when those in power are in need or just decide it’s in their best interest. Then it seems $ is made abundant.

Love this work thank you!
"Love is the expansion of self to include another." Imagine a world where we all had deep love for another. It would be the dissolution of the ego.
You are a man after my own heart!
“The space between stories”...sounds like Charles has been talking to George Monbiot :)
I think that "the space between stories" may be a metaphor for at least two concepts...
1) Antonio Gramsci's interregnum: the period after the illusion of legitimacy of governance is broken, yet expectant the time when new coalitions take hold, and
2) the intermission between hegemonic civilizations, without expectation of coelesecence.
I'm curious about his thoughts on the 6th extinction.
Says it all really,
the one thing it all ties together is that moral relativism should NOT be the makeup of our aggregate world view. that there is such a thing as truth about what it is that causes suffering.
that morality is: do not harm & respect all sentient beings, that said (being as we are ever seeking to grow) lets at the very least focus on our treatment of fellow man and larger animals (all mammals...) and not go out of our way to harm the "lesser" sentient beings like insects... but rather find alternative solutions than say use pesticides.
and that laws must reflect this and not be arbitrary/that mere opinions of few are to be accepted, Laws must recognize that birth rights DO exist.
I really love this! Concerning the reason people started to live longer, I would like to contribute that it was because of better hygiene, food and homes.
That was good af!
I just know a beautiful wotld is possible because I carry some sort of memory in me that tells me I have lived in paradise before. Somehow humanity took the wrong exit and now we're nearing the time where we achieved enough awareness to see this and make new choices
