Era III Medicine

The foundation of Era III is nonlocal mind -- mind that is infinite, eternal, immortal. As nonlocal mind becomes a living reality for more people, we could become a kinder, gentler culture. Nonlocal mind leads to what I call the Golden Rule of Era III: "Do good unto others because they are you!" Why? Because, as I said earlier, nonlocal mind is unlimited and boundless, which means that minds can't be walled off from each other. In some sense, at some level, we are each other.

Taking nonlocal mind seriously can, as I describe in Reinventing Medicine, widen the dimensions of the consciousness. We can tap into sources of wisdom beyond ourselves and beyond the present. Creative breakthroughs and prophetic knowing become ordinary in the context of nonlocal mind. Empathy and compassion flower as a result of our felt linkage with one another. And the awareness of immortality, as I've described, takes the pressure off living and dying. This will not happen automatically, however. We have to do our share and set our biases and prejudices aside. These are urgent matters. As Andre Malraux said, "The twenty-first century will be spiritual or it will not be at all."
