We are united by our shared humanity. But we are divided by
our individuality. There are innumerable beneficial organizations,
in religion and spirituality, politics, social movements, culture,
etc. How can we come together without sacrificing our separate
identities and individual truths? |

What is 'Humanity Movement'?
We do not want to create an umbrella, which shelters a multitude of
creative forces. Our interest is simply in joining hands with any person
or group that has a living sense of our shared humanity.
We do not want to undervalue differences, or to claim that we are the
possessors of the truth. Our power to link together is based solely
on our ability to see past differences and focus on what is good and
beautiful in each particular effort. Separately we are doomed. Together
in a creative partnership we will have an inexorable power—because
our action (if it’s based on understanding) actually creates the
new relationships and institutions as we work.
Humanity
We cannot avoid our humanity. As much as we may enjoy our private lives, we are intrinsically joined to each other, and enjoy or suffer the fate of those we do not know or do not want to know. Happiness is not attainable in private havens. The more we seek our own pleasure, the more isolated we become.
Shared humanity is a primary challenge and fact of our existence. Society is simply humanity writ large: it reveals our actual nature. Elemental society is our great potential: the visible expression of our authentic self.
How can we join together?
There is a constant movement of beauty and goodness in humanity, but our creative power is fragmented. There are hundreds of thousands of grassroots organizations around the world. People want to work together and achieve justice and peace. But we’re on the defensive against cold, brutal forces of society and our own nature.
Linking of people
Humanity movement is a non-ideological, non-partisan process that create forums to bring people together and nourish their interest in internal and social transformation.
Linking of organizations
We do not want to undervalue differences. We do not want to unfold an umbrella, which would shelter a multitude of creative forces. Our interest is simply in joining hands with any person or group that has a living sense of our shared humanity.
We are not possessors of the truth. Our ability to link up and work together is based solely on our ability to see past differences and focus on what is good and beautiful in each particular effort. Separately we are doomed. Together in a creative partnership we will have an inexorable power—because our action (if it’s based on understanding) actually creates the new relationships and institutions as we work.
Life-affirming organizations
There are so many
new and old movements that are setting down roots, or already have them.

As more and more of our time becomes capitalised with the commodification
of everyday life in the new "social factory" it becomes vital
to create places where people aren’t judged by their ability to
consume or to produce, where real human discussion and action can take
place....
