The Heroic Journey of Humanity and You With Duane Elgin

---

Do you find yourself feeling anxious about the future and unclear how your life journey fits with the new world unfolding around us? Are you looking for deeper meaning and purpose beyond your day-to-day life?

As great waves of change roll across the world, many of us feel uneasy and sometimes fearful about what lies ahead.

This important course is a potent antidote to that fear.
In 7 weeks, you will emerge with a powerful blueprint for your own heroic journey and a collaborative vision for what is possible in the larger, collective story we are now co-creating.

And with the guidance of Duane Elgin, one of the foremost evolutionary leaders of our day, you’ll unveil your truest gifts and co-create an emboldened future by reconnecting with a deeper wisdom about humanity’s path. (Keep scrolling to watch a short video message from Duane.)

This course offers a profound re-visioning of the history of human evolution and the leap we are now taking.

You will be inspired. You will feel a renewed sense of hope. And you will discover powerful action steps you can take in your own heroic journey.

With more than 40 years of scholarship and inquiry, Duane is an extraordinary guide to give you the big picture of our day and your role in it.

This course synthesizes the best of Duane’s wisdom, including collaborations with pioneers such as Joseph Campbell and his work on a presidential commission on the American future. He has served inside the trenches of politics and at the legendary think tank SRI International. Few people know that in the early 1970’s, Duane was one of NASA’s top-performing psychics for nearly three years—so you can be sure the intuitive aspect will not be overlooked in this course.

In addition to the weekly calls with Duane, this course goes far beyond what you might expect in an online class.

You will have the opportunity to engage, in-depth with Duane and other participants in a highly interactive and multimedia-rich online forum that includes practical exercises, supportive coaching, videos, short readings, quick surveys, images and much more to enhance your learning experience. In short, this course gives you the opportunity to go deep.

During the 7 weeks, you can:

• Discover your “true gifts” for contributing to the human journey at this pivotal time
• Explore your life’s heroic journey and see how it fits into our changing world
• Discover new ways of serving humanity as we navigate the passage ahead
• Awaken new areas of personal creativity and possibility
• Increase your confidence in expressing your most creative gifts
• Become more curious about and attentive to the world unfolding around you
• Let go of limiting stories of who you are and why you are here
• Ease the natural confusion and anxiety about the state of the world
• Be prepared for the challenges—and the opportunities—that lie ahead
• Be inspired and guided by an evolutionary pioneer and deeply engage with other insightful and thoughtful participants

An Invitation

Dear Friends of the Future,

How does your life journey fit into these turbulent and changing times? After four decades of exploring this theme, I know that many of us feel anxious about the future and unclear how our lives fit with the new world that is unfolding. So, what’s the story here? Both the big story of the human journey and the big story of our own lives? How do they fit together?

Join me in a powerful journey where, together, we can discover freshly how our personal lives fit into a world in profound transition. We will explore the great opportunity of bringing our personal legacy and contribution to this unique time. And to do that, we will explore the deep meaning and purpose that is unique in each of our lives.

During the seven weeks, we will explore four “deep narratives” that are universally understood and emotionally powerful, and that evoke our higher human potentials. With these simple but powerful stories as our guides, we will look deep into our own lives and into that of the human family—and the insights we discover together will often be surprising as well as stunning in bringing us fresh perspective and hope.

The world is changing and it’s time to discover our deepest story, our sense of personal journey and how this fits into our new world. Join me on this path of discovery and learn how you can transform anxiety into enthusiasm, chaos into creativity and transition into transformation.

This is a pivotal time for the human journey and we are each called to contribute our unique gifts so we can leave the legacy of a promising future.

I look forward to walking the path of discovery with you in the coming weeks.

With love and enthusiasm for the journey,

Duane Elgin

Course included

Week 1: A Fresh Look at Our World in Transition, March 24th
In this first week, Duane will invite you to take a fascinating journey of discovery into the question of the “life stage” of the human family. With a clearer understanding of where the human community is in its development, we can see how we fit into that process. We will also look at our personal journey to discover the most important forces in our rites of passage. You will have the opportunity to:

See how your personal path of discovery offers important insights and gifts for the larger human family
Experience renewed hope in recognizing how humanity is in a stage of development
Awaken forgiveness and compassion for humanity’s “failures” and realize the “gifts” of living in today’s turbulent world
Gain an overview of our current global trends, challenges and opportunities and what they mean for your life
Week 2: Recognizing Your Heroic Journey, March 31st
One of the human family’s universal stories is that of the “hero’s journey,” which moves through three stages: from separation to initiation to return. Where are we on this journey and how does it fit within our lives? You will have the opportunity to:

Discover how your personal heroic journey fits into the larger story of humanity
Develop a heightened sense of peace and ease about your “initiations”
Deepen your understanding of the freedoms and responsibilities that come with maturity
Week 3: We Are Waking Up to a New Level of Conscious Capacity, April 7th
According to scientists, our core potential as a species is contained within our name, homo sapiens sapiens. To be “sapient” is “to know.” Therefore, we are the species that “knows that it knows.” We have a unique ability to pay attention and be conscious of ourselves. This week we ask, both personally and collectively, how we are doing in developing our capacity for paying attention. You will have the opportunity to:

Explore how you can bring the empowering capacity of a reflective consciousness into your personal life
Consider what the awakening of our collective consciousness would look like and how it could make a difference in our lives
Learn to powerfully reflect on your own life and see your “story” through a new lens
Week 4: We Are Both Biological and Cosmic Beings, April 14th
Drawing from new insights from the frontiers of science, we will ask: Are we no more than our physical bodies in a universe comprised almost entirely of inert matter and empty space? Or, is the universe itself a living system, and how do we deeply connect with the aliveness of a living universe? In Week 4, you will have the opportunity to:

Discover how we are already sustained within a living universe
Recognize that we each are a unique body of light, love, music and knowing
Understand how consciously evolving is central to human nature
Explore how our life story changes when we feel we belong within a living universe
Week 5: Telling the Story of the Human Journey and Our Own Journey, April 21st
In this session, we will integrate the four narratives about the human journey and delve into what this means for our personal lives and overall humanity. When we put these four deep stories together, how do they make sense for each of us? In Week 5, you will have the opportunity to:

Deepen your own life story and see how it connects with our changing world
Awaken to your life’s journey and the new path that is possible for our species
Discover common themes for creating a future of sustainable prosperity

Week 6: Discovering Your “Near Gifts” and “True Gifts,” April 28th
What are your greatest gifts? This week we will dig beneath our social façades and everyday challenges in order to explore our “true gifts” or the most authentic talents that we can bring to our life journey. During this important week, you will have the opportunity to:

Identify your “near gifts” – the things you’re pretty good at doing and likely how you’ve made your living
Discover or freshly reclaim your “true gifts” – those things that awaken your heart and enthusiasm for life
Discover how you can express your greatest creativity and give your deepest gifts to humanity during this pivotal time
Gain confidence in co-creating a promising future
Week 7: Envisioning the Story of Your Life, May 5th
Now, we bring it all together where we consciously, creatively – and courageously – design our own life journey. What is your “heroic journey” as you connect with your deepest self and with future generations? In this final session, you will:

Explore the legacy that you want to leave for future generations
Develop a unique beacon of possibility for your life and know how your “true gifts” contribute to this new world
Identify the next steps and commitments you want to make towards transforming the world, both personally and collectively
In collaboration with other course participants, clarify a co-creative vision for our future

– Rayona Sharpnack, President of the Institute for Women Leadership, Redwood City, California
“Duane Elgin totally engaged more than 2,000 green building professionals in a spirited dialog about the future, and in the process began conversations between individuals that spilled over into the conference halls. Duane’s strength is ‘speaking with,’ instead of ‘talking to.’”
–Jerry Yudelson, MBA, Chair, 2005 US Greenbuild Conference“What inspired me the most in Duane’s course were all the creative and thoughtful responses in the forum. I was very engaged and appreciative of each person’s input. On the calls, too. This meant a lot and I’m grateful. I enjoyed the resources: videos, writings, voting, links, and suggestions. For me this has been a rewarding course and I’ll miss the connections we’ve shared.”
– Steven Ruddell“I was completely surprised and inspired by the high level of ideas. [Duane’s course]… gave clear evidence that beneath what seems to be dysfunctional in governmental, economic and social systems at every level, there are very intelligent, reasonable and compassionate minds yearning for new ways for human beings to get along with each other and with our good Earth.”
– Richard Talbott“We emerged from (Duane’s) workshop with better understandings of our individual and collective places in the world, clearer visions of purpose, renewed commitments, and restored hope…This powerful experience changed lives.”
– Carol Goland, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Environmental Studies, Denison University, Ohio“Duane’s presentation was enlivening and generative. He helped us to examine our work in light of the world that is becoming, engaged us in a dialogue that challenged the way we see higher education, and led us to find innovative and liberating possibilities.”
– Dean Elias, Dean of the School of Education, Saint Mary’s College of California“Among the nationally distinguished presenters in our Technology and Society Series at Santa Clara University, Duane Elgin was one of the finest. His talk and ensuing discussion on alternative futures and ecological lifestyles was rated by students and community participants as one of the most engaging and entertaining presentations of the series.
