Collective Wisdom in the West

Western society is deeply attached to ‘Enlightenment’ ideals of rationality, individualism and equality. These ideals have become dogma, taboo to even question, creating blindspots central to the ecological and political crises we face. By looking into these three blindspots we can rediscover our capacity for deep intuition, collective action, and politics motivated by love. To do this we must leave aside a false dichotomy between intellect and intuition, and realise that ideas can be addictions.
