For over 22 years, Gregg Braden searched high mountain villages, remote monasteries and forgotten texts to uncover their timeless secrets. Combining his discoveries with the best science of today, his original research crosses the traditional boundaries of science, history, and religion offering fresh insights into ancient mysteries. In doing so he has redefined our relationship to our inner and outer worlds, while sharing his life-affirming message of hope and possibility

He says, “In the presence of a changing world the systems that we have put in place are not sustainable. That opens the doors for opportunities to create new and sustainable systems. Those civilizations in the past that chose to create war in an effort to hang on dwindling resources and unsustainable ways of life collapsed and disappeared.

“I am in dialogue with many cutting edge thinkers such as Lynne Twist, Michael Beckwith and Deepak Chopra focusing on: 1) What we must do to learn to cooperate and work together as the family that we are, rather than operate from the fear and competition that is created by the old idea that there’s not enough to go around; and 2) Finding actionable concrete ways that we can use in our everyday lives and to wake up, become better people and create a better world.

“It takes a crisis for us to open to the possibility for change. Without the crisis it’s easy to be complacent. The changes in our world are inviting us to think differently about our relationship to the world and to each other. In that different way of thinking, choices become clear and the path becomes obvious. Giving a voice to our time and making the facts clear is how consciousness will shift.

“The key to our future lies in the wisdom of our past. One of the things that we can learn from our ancestors is that our individual choices become our collective answer. So, each of us can look at how we choose to live each moment of every day. For example, what choices do we make in the kinds of:

Businesses we support? Do we choose the cheapest products or those that are better for our bodies and our planet?
Foods we put into our bodies? Do we consciously choose foods that are naturally healthy and are not produced in ways that leave a huge carbon footprint?
Media that we put into our minds? Do we surround ourselves with images that display cooperation, compassion, peace and harmony and thus are life affirming and sustaining?
Education we support? Do we advocate for school systems that give our young people a complete world-view of ancient history including alternative ways of looking at our role in nature and creation rather than the outdated view that we are masters of nature and our role is to use, control and dominate?
Politics we support? The rubber of our spiritual traditions meets the road of our political reality when we advocate for the systems that are looking for more reasonable ways to solve our problems rather than going to war against our family in other parts of the world.

“Spiritual and science traditions merge and marry to take us into a greater wisdom than either can offer by itself. The science is showing us that there is no ‘them in us’ when we begin to live heart-centered ways of life that embrace the above principles. Living heart-centered lives changes us and that change is part of a field that connects all life, every blade of grass, every CEO and every leader of every nation.

“The question that each of us needs to answer is, “What do we as individuals feed into that field?” Because whatever nutrition we choose to feed into that field will determine what our world and our lives to look like.”

New York Times best selling author Gregg Braden is internationally renowned as a pioneer in bridging science and spirituality. Following a successful career as a Computer Geologist for Phillips Petroleum during the 1970s energy crisis, he became a Senior Computer Systems Designer for Martin Marietta Defense Systems during the last years of the Cold War. In 1991 he was appointed the first Technical Operations Manager for Cisco Systems where he led the development of the global support team that assures the reliability of today’s internet.

His tremendous amount of research is reflected in such paradigm-shattering books as The Isaiah Effect, The God Code, The Divine Matrix, The Spontaneous Healing of Belief and his most recent book, Fractal Time:  The Secret of 2012 and a new World Age.
