Productivity can be creative and spiritual [and...] actually benefit companies and executives...

Question:

Dear Tony

You say wonderful things on growing in your post. In my world, they would represent the fiminine way of accepting and including. I think that there is also a taste of love that could be considered as masculine, which is more dicriminating. That does distinguish what works and what does not.

My ambitions seem very similar to yours, but I want specifically to bring in the spiritual consciouness into the business realm. And here I feel tempted to introduce my thoughts in the more masculine way. As I have been an engineer and environmental project manager with a fear/love focus for 30 years, I now feel ready to make my experience available on the executive levels. Would you have any recommendations on how to get into a dialogue with this part of society?

I will mention that I have an expectation of being met by fear when talking about sprituality that I think would bring more creativeness and productivity.

What do you say Tony?

Dear Jackie,

Thank you for your feedback and constructive question. This is a major step for the business world and I am not sure that it is always you that has to take the steps. I think being truthful without the urge to change people is noticed whatever language is used. So the word spirituality can be toned to the language that is understood yet imply the basic concept of spirituality. This is being truthful and meeting people where they are. If you expect people to understand a language that they are not used to, the first reaction normally is that of fear and rejection. The japanese have been very smart in this respect and used many of the ancient spiritual ideals in business to keep the momentum and feeling between people in a company more harmonious or, in plainer English, more spiritual.

So I think your fear is warranted, but only if you are speaking a language that is alien to those you are speaking to. Productivity can be creative and spiritual and when people see that certain aspects of what you are saying actually benefits companies and executives, they will be more ready to listen especially during these times of major changes.

I would recommend a book I have written that has some interesting concepts that can be applied in a very practical way, called 'Shaman's Wisdom', due for release in april 2009 by Findhorn Press. Until then please visit my website (http://www.tonysamara.org) as it has very interesting resources which may also be helpful for you. Again, thank you for connecting.Tony Samara

"My deepest goal is that we all remember who we are..."

"My deepest goal is that we all remember who we are. But in a personal sense I don't feel caught up in the need to do this, as I believe that the future goal is an idea of people wanting something to change rather than themselves hence my distaste for politics and very zealous people on their missions. I feel it more important to open our minds and hearts to everyone so that we can understand the depth of a person, the uniqueness of a person and with that complex understanding be there for that person rather than try to change the world. So my spiritual aims as such are not limited to goals or aims but I embrace them as part of the bigger picture."  (Tony Samara - 2007)
