Dear friends,
The Institute of Applied Metatheory just concluded its first Legacy Circle retreat in Scottsdale, Arizona, bringing the world’s foremost integrative donors together with IAM’s social impact projects for a week of powerful, transformative work. It was profound. As one member put it: “When I picture what the absolute pinnacle of an integral philosophical experience is, this is it.” If you’ve been looking to bring the integrative worldview to life, alleviate the metacrisis, and support real, grounded applications that do so, I’m writing to invite you to consider joining the Legacy Circle yourself.
“It is an incredible honor and one of the great sources of joy in my life to be a financial supporter and active participant in IAM. The work that the institute is doing to move the ball downfield toward truly integrative approaches to our world’s global crises in the 21st century is unequaled.”
In the coming weeks, you’ll see IAM launch some of the recent work the Legacy Circle has helped to bring to life:
– The Integrative Values Charter, the world’s first cultural trust mark for the integrative values that millions of people are beginning to embody and institutionalize
– The New Story of Wholeness, an introduction to the integrative worldview arising in the 21st century and the core patterns that can help to bring profound wholeness to our lives, institutions and world
– Integrative Archphilosophy Symposium, a depth philosophy symposium dedicated to refining the architecture of an integrative “arch” framework, hosting more than a dozen scholars across Philosophy of Metareality, Unified Theory of Knowledge, Integral Philosophy, Process Philosophy, Complex Thought, and Modes of Existence
In addition, I’ll be soon announcing the work we’ve undertaken to build the world’s most advanced integrative AI, which is now being used inside IAM for incredible next-level insight into the challenges we believe integrative thinking can make tractable.
“It’s a privilege of my lifetime to be a part of the Legacy Circle: the people, the purpose, the meaning – to be learning from such bright minds [amidst the] arising Integrative Worldview — a new Renaissance where curious, compassionate, complex and creative minds and hearts transform today with ripple effects into the emerging future.”
If you’re interested in learning more about the Legacy Circle and the work we’re doing, please reach out, we’d love to connect with you.
Warm loving regards,
Robb
