Human intelligence must now align with Nature intelligence, Artificial Intelligence, Cosmic Intelligence. These four intelligences must be brought together creatively and purposefully for us to avoid ecological and social cataclysm by learning to live harmoniously within the larger web of life.
The momentous opportunity emerging in and through our global crises is for humanity, for the first time, to transition from the arrogance of human supremacy over nature to the humility of sacred reciprocity with nature by coming into the awareness that not only are we not alone, we cannot make it alone. We need the larger ecology of intelligences to guide us now. Only by embracing our planetary and cosmic dimensions in the consciousness of the web of life being an interconnected whole will we survive and ensure a flourishing future.
The world is not simply in crisis — it is in transition. What we are living through is both the end of something and the beginning of a deeper reckoning about human identity and our place in a vast ecology of being far larger, more complex, more potentiated than we have ever imagined.
The State of the World Forum exists to create a place — moral, intellectual and relational — where this transition can be named, met and shaped with integrity.
We are not here to offer instant answers. We are here to ask deep questions — together. Questions that span disciplines, cultures, cosmologies, timelines. Questions that invite both strategy and silence.
Questions that make room for the kinds of knowing that cannot be reduced to metrics or markets but are inspired by ancestral memories and awe at the wonder of the universe.
The Forum is designed as a space for serious dialogue and meaningful collaboration — held not by ideology but by shared inquiry and mutual respect. We are convening those who carry expertise and also humility, those who have seen systems break and who are willing to help imagine something more coherent in their place.
We believe that real intelligence is more than singular. It emerges through ecosystems, machines and the mystery of consciousness itself. This Forum centers around four converging dimensions of intelligence — human, natural, artificial, cosmic — not as abstractions but as realities. We are here to understand their relationship and to ask what kind of human maturity is needed to engage wisely with each of them separately and all of them synergistically to create a more harmonious world.
We are not a summit. We are not a brand. We are a container for convergence — a platform for planetary coherence. A meeting place for people who feel that what comes next must be met with more than opinion or reaction — it must be met with care and with deep respect for what is possible to create in this moment — a whole new paradigm, a whole new way of relating to the larger reality around us. We are in the rarest of human moments, when a whole new awareness is dawning on all of us, that our choices – in this moment, in this time – will shape the most profound transition our species has ever undergone. This moment will be remembered by history as the most momentous of human choice points, the most crisis ridden, the most possibility enriched.
To choose well we must listen well. We must learn at the knees of the elders whose people never forgot in order to come together with those who understand that the future cannot be managed but stewarded in partnership with other intelligences who communicate through the language of telepathy and consciousness. It is our time to learn this new language. It is our only hope.
It is on this most consequential question that the Forum will grow. It will host gatherings, support initiatives and give rise to a Center for Planetary Intelligence. But at its core, it remains a practice: of asking, of learning, of being together across differences — and of honoring what is sacred, even in times of uncertainty.
If you feel the call to contribute, you are welcome here. Not because you have all the answers but because you are willing to live in the questions with clarity, presence and care, calling at every moment upon the wisdom of the ancestors, all of them having been through their own moments of choice. Because of their wise choices we are here, our species still exists. They can collectively can help us, in this moment, to ensure that humanity, created as a jewel from Mother Earth, will take the next steps with intention and with heart as her emissaries to the cosmos.
