Synopsis:  Mission, Big Questions, Main Ideas   The Mission and the Big Questions that Drive It           I find myself again and again coming back to what so many Experiencers / EHEers remark:   If there is one thing that can save our planet and ourselves from our ignorance, apathy, and destructiveness, it is these Experiences [EHEs], what people learn from them, and consequently, how they are changed by them in distinct ways [see Aftereffects].           Exceptional Experiences become the initiatory impetus into what Rhea A. White defines as the EHE Process, through which this dramatic shift in consciousness matures into a way of being and understanding along the lines of what William James referred to as the MORE that it means to be Human and White has alluded to as the Self we all are.  We cannot begin to guess the potential and promise inherent in these transforming events and their influence within our personal and collective lives, extending to the entire world.  The challenge and invitation offered here -- the mission of these two webs -- can be described as a wake-up call for all of us:            There is a globally significant meaning and purpose implicit in this work and specifically, these Experiences, as broad and deep as the promise of human evolution -- and as urgent as the universal concern about our planetary survival. The underlying question that drives this "Project of Transcendence," ultimately belonging to all of us as one evolving Human Family, is this:            What could the unified consciousness, astounding creativity and brilliance, and purposeful commitment of hundreds of millions of compassionately motivated, Aware people from all over the world, who have these EHE aftereffect characteristics in common, do together with well-organized, unifying, [most Experiencers would say] Spirit-led intentionality? Exactly this is what Ahhh-TheLight and wHeretwoworldsTouch have been created to nurture and help facilitate.    Main Ideas Rhea A. White EHEs / EEs / the EHE Process A mission focused on raising awareness about EHEs and their significance, especially in regards to .. A radical, world-wide awakening now in process, described in essence by a profusion of EHEers as thus far silent, invisible, unnoticed for the most part.  I have a strong feeling that the vast majority of committed and truly inspired activists as well as  leaders in any field can trace the origin of what drives them back to exceptional human experiences. One consequence of this distinct, global EHEerly phenomenon as a movement about to discover itself is a new consensus reality sourced in this widely recognized Experience of life, which is not acknowledged or even "allowed" within the traditional, materialistic Western science paradigm -- although this is changing, being a direct result of none other than people's encounters through exactly these exceptional human[izing] experiences. A New Story for Humanity is another naturally emerging phenomenon of actual exposure to the so-called larger-life reality that something on the order of one fourth to one half of our entire population has glimpsed firsthand.  Each person's EHE-based story can be recognized as an archetypal example of 'all things EHE'.  Anya Foos Graber poetically describes these EE / EHE encounters now prodigiously seeded within our global humanity as "inoculations of immortality," and similarly sublime, Elaine Pagels seems to capture the essence of exceptional experiences in her phrase, "modes of consciousness susceptible to revelation."  Without question, EHEers as a whole consider these moments to be "realer than real" and "the most important thing that ever happened to me."  The Power of STORY comes alive in the fullness of glory in these incomparable experiences that together bring people to the unambiguous realization of a new turn in the spiral of evolution for our species.  Beyond their personal, life-changing significance, to have impact that can save the world, first, they must be shared, and second, 'enough of us' must be committed to this task.  White suggests writing them down for us and others in autobiographical [and thus therapeutic] form.  She also came up with the idea of EHE Study Groups built to provide a safe, neutral and / or permissive languaging and an all-accepting environment in which to share and work with our EHE experiences, such as in the form of stories and dramas. A third outcome is also quite evident today, but not yet in any generally known context of 'all things EHE'.  Many of us have long felt that sooner or later one sign of a more complete, enlightened understanding of reality would be the integration of the best that science and spirituality / religion offer us.  No more either / or, but ONE.  It's important to note that just as the whole of anything is more than the sum of its parts, so it could be said that this New Consensus awareness is more than merely the merging of science and spirituality.  Nevertheless, in regards to these two avenues of knowledge, this budding new consensus can be considered a "Third Way" [see New Consensus article].  The extraordinary healing and wholeness making for our planet and our humanity is revealed in the nascent new consensus based on these [EHE] experiences that growing numbers of people continue to have all over the world.  Variously referred to as a global consciousness shift, a "revolution," even a "new species" of human, evidence of "a new heaven and new earth" or "the Kingdom [come] on Earth," "an enhancement of the forces of cognition," "a new moral consciousness and reverence for all life," "the Supramental consciousness-force," and the "Second Coming" of Christian and Buddhist fame, for starters [see Such As articles].   wHeretwoworldsTouch.com [see Prospectus] provides a multiple-community web that supports and chronicles the development of this global, EHE-based population and the establishment of its genuine 'self-awareness' as a movement.              Imagine, how the world will be transformed when the entire population of EHEers, EHE Empaths, Cultural Creatives and the like becomes fully operational as a mutually aware, self-organizing Movement!  At that point what we will see is a harmonious confluence of all the smaller interest groups [without compromising the diversity in any way] into one unified intentional whole that will bring all its inwardly derived creative genius of Presencing and Heart to bear upon the serious ills within our world.  The MORE that it means to be Human, radiantly apparent in this Movement, will itself become a pervading motivating influence within the made-new World we together bring into being.  And yet the only thing that will have truly changed will be our consciousness that has made all the difference!  As near-death experiencer PMH Atwater has remarked,  [This] is a revolution.  Make no mistake about that.             It is a revolution of consciousness.           AND IT IS TRULY GLOBAL.           Millions are choosing it.  Millions more are being flung into it, ready or not, like the near-death survivor.  It is happening with or without anyone's permission.           We are at this very moment, according to Mirra Alfassa ["The Mother"], the corroborative spiritual collaborator to Sri Aurobindo, and similarly expressed by other great Seers like Rudolf Steiner, Teilhard de Chardin,  Sri Aurobindo himself, Walter Russell, and David Spangler, witness to the birth of a New World in our midst!   In the moment that we know this, whether as one or as ONE, we too are changed.  This brings to mind,  Behold, I tell you a mystery:  We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed -- in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet.  For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.    ~~1 Corinthians 15:51-52, Holy Bible           Here is an EHEerly interpretation.  Incorruptible:  This is us, sourced not in physical bodies and evolution, but in the aware consciousness of The Eternal, ... eternally, even during our tenure on Earth -- you and me, now; this IS Eternity.  On Earth, most of us have long been 'dead' to this larger-life reality in which we are eternal beings who can never die.  The 'trumpet' or wake-up call for all who sleep -- sleep is notoriously known as 'the little death' -- is fully operative in 'all things EHE'.  We are made-new in the recovery of our long-forgotten original innocence, through our EHEs.  We come to re-member our true nature, incorruptible, i.e., our original innocence, which is eternally our real nature.  This is another way of describing the MORE that it means to be Human, consciously reunited within the All-Self / Self we all are.       ----- NOTE:  I confess, by the way, this idea has been a long time coming, but I am only recently realizing that a "Movement" of itself may be insufficient as a self-sustaining entity that can grow and mature and become a reliable beacon of inspiration and a contributive relational presence within the world for a long time to come.  I want to explore with others how we may together create a form for this movement [an institution? or?] that will have lasting stability and cohesiveness through this transitional and uncertain era and beyond.
