Breakdown and Renewal
Hello, Portals friends:
Patrick is writing today on behalf of the Portals team.
It's not surprising that finding renewal in this pivotal moment in time is the central theme of two special conversations published on Portals. Aviv Shahar and an international group of friends share their intuition and insights about the onsetting new epoch, and a starter new blueprint for a way through the meta-crisis to humanity’s renewal.
In "This Epochal Moment, Event Part 1: Breakdown", we find optimism in a time when many sense uncertainty and fear. In “Part 2: Renewal”, the conversation explores the power of imagination in creating a new path forward toward resurrection and new evolutionary possibility.
This Epochal Moment, Event Part 1: Breakdown
It might seem like a contradiction that in a time of such profound global change, people can feel both anxiety about the current state of global affairs and yet see signs of renewal and regeneration in their communities and across the planet.
As Aviv notes, “There’s never been a time in my adult life that I’ve been as optimistic and hopeful and confident about humanity’s capacity to redeem itself, and regenerate itself through the crisis underway.”
The collective intelligence that emerges in the conversation reveals confidence and humility in realizing we face a great unknown in this new phase of transformation.

As we hear in part two of the conversation, each one of us has the creative potential to be truly self-authoring, and actively participate in the emergence and flow of the new epoch.
This Epochal Moment, Event Part 2: Renewal
In this conversation we explore one of our greatest assets in this time of uncertainty — the natural capacity to self-author, to re-create at any time the person we want to be, knowing that we are never alone. Intelligence and perception in multiple dimensions— from our friends to our inner lives — are available for the asking.
Can we make the space? Are we prepared to update our understanding and belief about what is possible?
Never underestimate the power of our imagination — the creative energy we bring online as we visualize the way forward for our own and humanity’s renewal.
