PRESENTATION TO THE WORLD WISDOM COUNCIL JULY 23-26, 2006

By Mitchell L Gold

Warm greetings to the World Wisdom Council and Welcome to Toronto - the Meeting Place.

I have been asked by Phil Lane Jr. and Angaangaq Lyberth to introduce to the World Wisdom Council the Documents of the Fourth Way.  

By way of introduction we look to the fundamentals of the World Wisdom Council and trust that our presentations satisfies the criteria that:

§ put into practice the criteria of "Agenda 21" for socially and ecologically sustainable global development in a particularly innovative, exemplary, successful and integral way;

§ have a special potential to initiate fundamental processes of change towards a globally responsible and win-win oriented kind of thinking;

§ have an implicit potential for applicability under different circumstances.

These documents take all peoples into the 21st Century together honoring the work of the elders of many traditions and brings together many fundamental common core ideas: these ideas are now being taught in business schools using a different language:

 Building Sustainable and Harmonious Prosperity requires us to use this certain business language:  Salience, Causality, Sequencing and Resolution.  

How do we integrate our thinking with the business schools and maintain integrity of our own thoughts and processes.  And how do they?  These documents serve as tools to facilitate that
integration of thinking processes.

Recalling the World Declaration of the Indigenous Peoples of North, South and Central Americas including the sentiments of all indigenous peoples of the World upon the Completion of the International Decade of the World's Indigenous People (1995-2004)

Executive Summary:
It is our goal:
To recall the intentions of the United Nations Declarations of Human Rights
To recall the intentions of the Earth Charter
To recall the intention of the UN Global Compact
To recall the intention of the Millennium Development Goals
To recall the intention of the Thanksgiving Address by the Peacemaker

To recall the Message of the Peacemaker and the effect of the Great Law on the governance of North America

To recognize within the Great Law the Fundamental Principles of justice, kindness, understanding, humility, generosity, dignity, honesty, integrity, hospitality, freedom, liberty and tolerance.

Whereas it is necessary to change human behavior, corporate behavior, institutional behavior and Nation State behavior in order to achieve a healthy balance (sustainable) on our Home planet,

We call on all International Institutions, governments, corporations and individuals to take such steps as necessary to educate its peoples in common core values utilizing wholistic educational models based
upon the teachings of the Great Law or its national counterpart.

We call on all people to recognize that Humankind will make peace when peace makes money and that a redistribution of wealth is necessary for the existence of mankind.   (The One Per Cent Solution - TOPS)

We call on all governments, organizations, corporations, and individuals to shift their spending habits to support a sustainable planet for at least the next seven generations and apply principles of
peace and reconciliation worldwide.  (The One Percent Solution- TOPS))

We the indigenous peoples call out to all peoples and governments to prepare for the eventual destruction of all weaponry and cooperatively work toward World Peace.

In all our actions, we agree to consider how we may influence our children seven generations to come.

The Fourth Way and the World  Declaration working together with the basic principles and Integrative Thinking is a way.  It is not the only way, but when looking at any story of success over the past several hundred years you will find that it is this kind of thinking that has been successful.

 I trust you will receive these documents in a good way and will integrate the 16 Principles into your own processes in order that we Build a Sustainable World and Harmonious Prosperity

NOTE re Spirit Island

Spirit Island was renamed in Ceremony October 6 2005. Formally called Snake Island, this island forms part of a Land Claim on Traditional Territories of the First Nations Peoples.

This land has never been ceded by Treaty.

The intention of the First Nations Indigenous Trust is to reclaim the Land for all the Peoples and to have that Land be a Symbol for World Peace. In the tradition of the Peacemaker to carry the message of the Good Mind and to serve as a reminder of our grandfathers as we serve in gratitude for all that they have done to bring us to this point in time.
