Sit down with Rufus Pollock, co-founder of Life Itself as he explores the concept of the Second Renaissance and its potential to usher in a new era of human understanding and societal organization. Rufus delves into the limitations of the current paradigm, highlighting its emphasis on reason, individualism, and exploitation of nature.

Rufus proposes that the Second Renaissance is a transition period that offers us an opportunity, as well as a need, to develop a more holistic and integrated worldview, emphasizing interconnectedness, sustainability, and the exploration of our inner world. 

He outlines the three main activities of us, "Life Itself," an organization dedicated to fostering and supporting this emerging paradigm.

Life Itself is a community of people seeking a wiser world.

Looking around us we can see that neither our society nor our planet are as well as they should be. Greater wisdom is needed both in diagnosis and in finding cures.

We emphasize wisdom because we believe this is about more than finding a quick-fix in technology or politics — it is about finding something deeper within ourselves and our societies.
