Film Description:
The Elegant Universe
One of the most ambitious and exciting scientific theories ever posed—one that may be the long-sought "Theory of Everything"—gets a masterful and lavishly animated explanation that will excite scientists and non-scientists alike. Beginning with simple and clear explanations of major concepts of physics, including gravity, electromagnetism, and relativity, The Elegant Universe illuminates one of the most revolutionary theories in physics today.

Known as string theory or superstring theory, this startling idea proposes that the fundamental ingredients of nature are inconceivably tiny strands of energy, whose different modes of vibration underlie everything that happens in the universe. The theory attempts to unite the laws of the large—general relativity—and the laws of the small—quantum mechanics—breaking a conceptual logjam that has frustrated scientists for nearly a century.

If string theory proves correct, the universe we see obscures a reality that is far richer and more complex than anyone ever imagined—a universe with numerous hidden dimensions, a universe in which the fabric of space can rip and tear, a universe that may be but one of many parallel universes.

Join host Brian Greene, professor of physics and mathematics at Columbia University and the best-selling author of The Elegant Universe, for this exciting and in-depth exploration of this groundbreaking new theory.

Good day everyone,

I wanted to give you all plenty of time for this upcoming event. Michael Farley and Nandita Bajaj gladly accepted to do a presentation for the group without hesitation when asked about three months ago. The information they are going to share is highly insightful and amazingly practical. They are also going to introduce to us 'Enlightened Communication', where we will go beyond the theoretical and into the experiential. Michael has been a good friend of mine for a number of years, and I'm so very grateful to have both he and Nandita come to do this talk. I trust it's gonna be a great afternoon.

(For more details of this event please read below)

Sincerely,

An Introduction to the EnlightenNext Discovery Cycle: Awakening Consciousness and Engaging Culture

The EnlightenNext Discovery Cycle is a far-reaching, inclusive opportunity for anyone who is interested in changing the world to deeply align with and contribute to humanity's larger evolutionary journey. It's a means for all of us to make sense out of life in the deepest way possible, together, and to show that human beings really can relate to each other in a dramatically different way.

As someone who sees and feels that the future is in our hands, you're aware that there's never been more potential for cultural transformation than at this moment in history. So many of us now have the tools, resources, and perspectives to actually create a new world—one based on a recognition that the "inner" and the "outer," consciousness and culture, are one, and that who we are isn't separate from the 14-billion-year epic of cosmic evolution. What kind of culture might begin to emerge, beginning with our own transformation, and radiating out into the world through our shared inspiration, effort, and action? That question is exactly what you will be able to explore when you participate in the EnlightenNext Discovery Cycle.

Please join us for a short presentation on the Discovery Cycle and the opportunity to explore it through Enlightened Communication.

Nandita Bajaj and Mike Farley are Practitioners of Evolutionary Enlightenment, pioneered by spiritual teacher Andrew Cohen. They are both high school teachers in Toronto and also run a popular monthly meetup focusing on articles from EnlightenNext magazine.
