The UnManifesto 3 Lenses for tuning into the frequency of a unified humanity Our operating systems are failing us. Our regionally scarce past had confused our selfishness as solutions. Solutions that now present more problems than they solve. Prosperity with poverty, productivity with pollution, the fat and sick gorging on the weak and starving, while the underlying methods behind the madness go ignored. So, we continue running our world with the ideas and “isms” that benefit one group over another, expressed with manifestos...that separate us even more! Destroying our world to chase imaginary wealth does not make sense to anyone now...not even to those who now run the game. We simply cannot fix these problems with the same thinking that had created them. This is now the time for us to grow up, reorganize ourselves with the understanding of our true nature, and tap into the deeper wisdom we have had all along.

16. The expression “conflict of interest” has become business as
usual. Why? Isn’t any conflict just an idea bound by the context of
who “we” think we are in relationship to who we think “they” are?
What happens when we realize that they are us?
Co-creative collaboration is not another new trend, it is the well
established evolutionary path to a higher order of being. The
same pattern that transforms simpler life forms to a higher order
of complex organisms.

How can we ever see our true selves when we are always
fighting whoever “they” are at the moment?
We can and must do better. Conflict now is the position to
overcome, not relish in. Compassion comes from
understanding others who only appear to be our competition.
The moment we understand and feel compassion towards
each other, we are no longer enemies. Now is the time to
realize the obvious.
We cannot steal from ourselves.

Humanity has evolved from the limited views of our scarce
surroundings and we see differences more often than similarities, if
not for anything other than what we had thought necessary for our
immediate survival.
Until now, linear, deterministic, reductionist logic gave us the
comfortable illusions of knowledge, within the isolated age of
hostile local conditions. Now that we can see farther and wider,

27. Survival against outsiders has been exploited within us.
The weak are meat and the strong do eat had been the default
operating principle. Waste has never been my problem,
because my premise has always been about the survival of me
and my tribe and not my neighbors.
Except now we can actually see that the unseen ties that bind
us are not just metaphorical, but literal. Profit will neither provide
empowerment to all nor extrication to space for the “chosen”
few, when pollution is hard wired into the design itself! It is high

Linear processes are just paths within the whole cycles, nested
within other interconnected cycles within one infinite loop.
There is no “I” without “We” nor any “We” without “me”. When
we can see how our actions translate to reactions that affect all
of us, the experience forever alters the behavior we thought
was acceptable. Those views are available to us here and now.
It is time to see bigger.

A living system intelligently appropriates key resources for
its interdependent essential functions. These core functions
focus on regeneration directly dependent on the optimized
execution of elimination, assimilation and distribution.
We too can rebalance our operating systems with the
simplicity and elegance of natural flows. The R.E.A.D. model
from GROW, designed to account for sustainable systemic
abundance is a good example of this.
Regeneration, or the cycling of essential functions.
Elimination, or the selective filtering to ensure pure inputs.
Assimilation, or the efficiency optimized packaging for delivery.
Distribution, or the matching of resources with needs.

In a living system optimized for system integrity, we no longer have to keep
score for an uncertain future by polluting and pillaging against the present.
Dynamic systems founded on flow, focus on the value optimization now,
instead of speculating on future frictions. It measures energy inputs that
cancel each other out towards equilibrium instead of the uncertain and
often false promises of future equity. We focus on accounting for ZERO.
Zero impact, zero total cost of living, zero frictions between resources and
needs. We are all part of one infinite loop. It’s time to close the circle.

34. The assumption of scarcity is now persuading us to unnecessarily
produce and consume more, instead of doing more with less. This
has since confused cleverness with wisdom and it is now confusing
leadership with salesmanship.

All versions of it are untruths that get in the way of solving for the
actual issues at hand. When wisdom is the aspiration model, the
pursuit of truth becomes the obsession to deliver us from the
delusions du jour. This has been the evolution of our consciousness.
Shouldn’t this be our future of leading humanity?

All value is arbitrary relative to other arbitrary values defined
by our experiences, thus defined by a shared premise.
Currently, economic value is premised on resource scarcity
defined by its production and consumption rate expressed
in terms of price money.

and consumption is no longer the real issue?

lives though they often go overlooked through the mirage of money. From
airline miles, time bank co-credits, social network leaderboards, virtual
rewards, complimentary local currencies, bankless, stateless, paperless
cryptocurrencies and more, the mechanics are now maturing into practical
measures to fill in the gaps where centralized fiat currencies are falling short.
They are the new expressions of value exchange. They may only be the
experiments of the mechanics for now. Nonetheless, they are quietly

expectations to experience in real time. Eventually we can free ourselves
of the archaic speculative mechanisms of savings, stocks or bonds to
guarantee the transfer of value.
In this exponentially advancing exabyte digital age, we can actually match
resources to our real needs and wants and measure their impact
relative to agenda. Seeing relative valuation in real time, instead of the
debt fueled production and speculation cycles that now makes a few

What is the highest and best use of any resource? Whether material or metaphysical,
nature has already given us the design manual. All we have to do is follow the flows.
The vector to direct and the velocity to impact is no longer the cryptic guesswork of our
institutional economists. Beyond the new symbols of contextual currencies, we are now
also free to represent what we truly value and exchange.

We all want to love the life we live, as deeply and as often as
possible. Everything we do, from oppression to ownership, drudgery to
dividends, popularity to privacy is all in the pursuit of love. The mechanics
of this game has been well established, though its mysterious forces
rarely let us clearly see our longing for it through that lens. What if it did?
How would we live our lives if we worked to achieve more love in less time

48. A game can be played in multiple levels of consciousness. The material,

chaos consuming players of the lower level games. The master game in life
plays to the objective of love. Love is all there is. We are only the pieces.
The chart on the next page is a game lens to see the disconnect from our current
activity to our pursuit of a life we love. It also shows the merging trends and
conscious shifting of activities that more closely align with love centric existence.
We have yet to create the intelligent tools and practices to realize this reality, but it
