The idea behind Universe Day

The foundational idea behind the message of Universe Day is derived in part from the wisdom of Albert Einstein when he said: "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." Of course, one doesn't have to be a scientist, activist, or political analyst to know that worldwide challenges (the climate change emergency, war, other environmental degradation, the unstable global economy...) all have serious consequences. But rather than merely feeling overwhelmed by these issues, the impetus behind Universe Day is to expand one's perspective on how one thinks about them (as Planetary Evolutioneers and Universe Citizens) and --- shift our lives into better alignment with universe-scaled and Universe evolution-informed solutions. 

Universe Day is a challenge to all of us. Tremendous technological leaps have extended the vision of the naked eye well over a million times. With recent innovations in astronomy and evolutionary science, we've discovered more factual knowledge about the Universe in the last 20 years than in all of human history. With these leaps in our collective vision, we are touched and impacted in our consciousness by the rareness and miracle of what we have here on Earth. In other words, just as the universal informs us at the personal level, so does it transform our planetary perspectives. Can we use these new extensions to our collective eyes, ears, hearts, and souls to examine what this planet and Universe mean to us in the bigger evolutionary context and panorama?

Here are some additional suggested actions for Universe Day 2025

1.) Find new ways to honor the Universe, its origin (the Great Mystery), and the many daily gifts you receive. Click here if you are curious to see the many cross-cultural names humanity has accumulated for the Great Mystery and the Origin of our spectacular Universe.

2.) Consider how you might better act as universe citizens and as a planetary Evolutioneer. As such, we are responsible for acting from a long-term and big-picture universe evolutionary perspective to wisely forward the evolution of all life on our planet to benefit humanity, its future, and all other living species. These are critical global citizenship responsibilities that transcend our national citizenship. Click the following link to learn more about being a planetary evolutioneer and universe citizen in the great evolutionary adventure.

3.) See every problem one faces as an equal or greater opportunity and possible benefit if wisely met and managed. For example, the world's number one problem is rapidly accelerating climate change and global warming. This is one essential, life-critical area where we must act together and be effective transnational planetary universe citizens and evolutioneers.

4.) Help build more climate-safe, resilient, and sustainable communities worldwide and prepare them for our escalating climate change emergency! Click here to learn how you can do this.
