The Planet Within:
Group Consciousness as the gateway to the new Civilization
an international co-creative gathering for a deeper experience of group consciousness
Group Consciousness as the gateway to the new Civilization
The Gathering has ended ( May 29 – June 2, 2019 )
We are working towards a new meeting
This gathering is a co-creative space within which every participant will contribute to the anchoring of an expanded group consciousness. We will discover together how Groups can contribute to the realization of the New Civilization
Why this gathering?
On our Planet today, a New Civilization is seeking to be born, yet significant work still lies ahead to bring it into being.
Groups have a powerful responsibility in this endeavour by building greater cooperation and partnership across all dimensions of life.
This gathering is a bold, co-creative, pioneering step towards realizing the potential of the group life and its impact on the evolution of the Cosmos.
The Planet Within is promoted by the Community of Living Ethics, in collaboration with the Association New Era
Together we will:
- create an expanded understanding of group consciousness
- participate in a ‘living lab’ for group life, exploring cooperation and co-creativity as core principles
- stimulate greater engagement and partnership within group life with all kingdoms and beings
- as a group, contribute to the manifestation of this brighter future
Each attendee will become part of the light worker group that will continue to consciously align with and anchor the work of the gathering beyond these initial 5 days in Umbria.
Why should you attend?
Over 5 days we will explore every dimension of Life with a precise intention:
live an expanded awareness and experience of group consciousness: ‘the planet within’.
Every person who attends the gathering is both a participant and a contributor and plays a core role in the creation and anchoring of the next step in group consciousness. Your ‘voice’ and your energy will be key at this event.
The impact of our work together will extend beyond the gathering itself as each person anchors the energy from the event back into their own group.
Who should attend?
Groups or individuals committed to developing the highest possible levels of group expression, cooperation, group consciousness and creativity across the Planet.
Participation may be from individuals or multiple members of groups such as:
- existing communities or intentional spiritual communities and ecovillages
- conscious commercial and/or socially responsible organizations
- Informal and formal groups dedicated to helping all of us in humanity to create a new way of living and being.
How will we work?
We intend to connect and enter into the next level of group consciousness that is seeking to be experienced, to bring about the New Civilization.
We will work together through a with combination of:
- talks & presentations
- group sharing
- experiential and co-creative work
- group meditation
Deep inquiry, expanded understanding and new realisations will all contribute to the exploration of the field of group consciousness as the gateway to the New Civilisation.
Themes
We aim at exploring together each aspect of the vast field of group consciousness: be that cosmic, mineral, plant, animal or human, as we weave these aspects together and embody them individually and collectively.
Cosmic Realm
Mineral Realm
Plant Realm
Animal Realm
Human Realm
Key contributors
We are inviting a number of people to be key contributors; people who express and live the reality of group consciousness in their lives. Contributors will be asked to embrace the full scope of the gathering – seeing themselves both as helping to shine the light on an aspect of consciousness that sits within group consciousness and as a co-creators of the group field along with all participants.

- “Defining” group consciousness through different lenses including politics, architecture, astrology, the animal kingdom and more
- Building the connections with all beings and kingdoms of nature
- Group consciousness – a living experiment in the Community of Living Ethics Umbria
KEYNOTE: THE LIVING EXPERIENCE OF GROUP CONSCIOUSNESS

Through these insights and sharings we hope to start to build the tapestry or the ‘field’ that will help all participants to go even deeper into exploring, understanding and living group consciousness.

Location
Green and wooded hills with medieval villages, vineyards and olive groves. Ancient ancestors of the Umbrian today – proud but friendly people – were the Etruscans, with their necropolis and stone streets.
This is Umbria. The Community of Living Ethics is right here, nearby the town of Città della Pieve.
The conference will take place at the Hall of Culture, a building belonging to the Community, designed and built accordingly to the laws of harmonious construction and sacred geometry. Its architectural measures and spatial relationships originate from the application of the golden section and harmonic proportions. The Hall has been thought as a “space container” that unites sky, earth and the evolving human consciousness. These are symbolically represented by the cover divided into twelve parts – as the Zodiac Constellations, by the floor of the building that reflects the sky itself and by ten arches jointed at the top into a suspended dome, the culminating point of the building.
Optional accomodation will be arranged within the Community Centers: they are farmhouses immersed in the green countryside and characterized by a synthesis of beauty and simplicity. Here you will have the occasion to experience the Community life, tuned on the values of brotherhood by sharing morning meditations, breakfasts, lunches and dinners: a simple life but rich in meaning and contacts.

Take the Leonardo Express to Termini railway station. The Fiumicino Airport railway station is signposted and just across the road from the arrivals hall.
