wHolystic - The Divine Completeness

Holistic / Wholystic – means to me :
the Divine & Holy, All-transforming & Combining
Completeness of Everything.

What is the difference between ‘Wholystic’ and ‘Holistic’ ?
– Either way you spell it, just depending on your perception, it will be the same !

Wholystic/Holistic is a different approach to religion & spirituality, a Philosophy
which integrates & transcends the usual polarities of religion, spirituality & atheism.
It is not only an idea, but also a Non-Linear Way of Thinking, a Being & Understanding that fits perfectly within the modern world with endless changes and constant flow of information.
It is able to frame & organize the whole ‘gestalt‘ of a post-modern planetary village, a new Paradigm.
It is derived from the Greek holos, meaning ‘Whole & Complete‘.
It is a term commonly used by people who want a more humane
and well-rounded approach to Healthcare, Economics, Politics, Education & Life-Coaching.
It catches, in a modern way, our most profound spiritual instincts.

Wholism also describes a natural, organic universe in which everything & everybody is playing
an important part in the continuous process of changing and where new things emerge constantly.
The structure of ‘Wholes‘ are never fixed or static, they are patterns in flux, always shifting & absorbing new dynamics & factors. As such, it not only describes the evolutionary Power of the cosmos, it also describes life
in a modern world: Belonging, – Connected and Ever-Changing from the Present Moment.

Understanding all this, those of us who subscribe to the idea of Wholism need to
be conscious about our own Beliefs which can easily become fixed & ridged.

We should remain open to new insights and listen to our 3I‘s
and those ‘Instincts‘ we believe to be true & correct
from our own personal experiences, – Here in the Chaos of NOW

Here are some of the key characteristics of Wholysm.

• Perceives the connections & interdependence of all things in Life.
• Can sense the Synergy & Entourage Effect in everything.

• To create healthy & whole communities – locally and globally
• To include all elements & dimensions, known or unknown to us.
(As a scientific idea, it also has a more precise meaning that is relevant & useful.)
• Nothing can be fully understood unless we can see the whole system of which it is a part.
• A whole is always a sum of all its parts.
• Random elements are continually emerging and self-organizing to form coherent wholes.

NOW, why is wHolistic education more effective?
• It involves the instinctive sense of Belonging & Connection
to a universe filled with beauty, mystery & meaning.
• It includes the desire to explore and deepen that Connection
• It provokes general inquiry into those deepest questions: Why are we here? Where did we come from ? Where are we going ? where do we belong?
• It involves the instinct to stretch beyond our ego boundaries and love others unconditionally.
• As we challenge ourselves in this way we elevate our consciousness and are then able to support others on this journey of healing and awakening.
