Uni­fy is a call to action. It indi­cates a desire to bridge the divides that cause harm­ful sep­a­ra­tions between peo­ple and plan­et. We choose the word uni­fy for this sec­tion, instead of uni­ty, because we want to empha­size the impor­tance of this action being a verb—a process of con­tin­u­al motion—rather than a sta­t­ic noun.

We want to sum­mon the pow­er of belong­ing. We want to under­score that notion of every­thing in exis­tence hav­ing a place and pur­pose. We are inter­est­ed in pur­su­ing the action of uni­fi­ca­tion as a way to hon­or and har­mo­nize impor­tant dif­fer­ences. We endorse work­ing toward a lov­ing and sus­tain­able strat­e­gy for enhanc­ing every type of ecosys­tem for the bet­ter­ment of life on our planet.

As a means for col­lec­tive uplift, we are moti­vat­ed by the uni­fi­ca­tion of heart, mind, and soul in the indi­vid­ual. This pur­suit reminds us of the Jun­gian arche­typ­al notion of the self, the idea of a uni­fi­ca­tion of con­scious­ness and uncon­scious­ness rep­re­sent­ing the psy­che as a whole. This type of holis­tic con­cep­tu­al­iza­tion is what we seek to expand aware­ness around in these pages.
