Ervin László is een Hongaars wetenschapsfilosoof die in zijn boek
'Science and the Akashic Field: An Integral Theory of Everything'
de hypothese uitwerkt dat er een veld van informatie is, waarin alles van het heelal is te lezen. Hij vergelijkt dit veld - een dimensie naast het fysieke - met het uit het Sanskriet afkomstige woord voor 'ruimte': Akasha. Daarom noemt hij dit veld ook met de Engelse term: 'Akashic field'
Onder andere vanwege mijn interesse in de Akasha Kronieken heb ik door Ervin László geleide symposiums bijgewoond en tijdens een persoonlijk gesprekje heeft hij mijn door hem geschreven boek 'Het chaospunt' gesigneerd en ging hij met mij op de foto!

Planetary Consciousness: Our next Evolutionary Step - PDF
Whether we know it or not, systemic processes hold sway in the development of society, the same
as they do in the evolution of nature.1 The new sciences of complex systems and evolution,
cybernetics, general system theory, the theory of dynamical systems (known as chaos theory), and
general evolution theory, among others, tell us that, whatever their nature, complex systems evolve
with an underlying logic of their own. This evolution is not haphazard, though it is not entirely
predictable. It does have an underlying direction; a probability that, following any basic
transformation, certain kinds of states and conditions will come about.

On the other hand creating a more equitable and generous world is equally
possible, and doing so is within our power. Moving toward this positive path of our collective
evolution calls for recognizing the real imperatives of our day.
Evolving a planetary consciousness is among these imperatives. With the current level of
consciousness in society, diplomatic negotiations, legal and administrative measures, and armed
military or police actions show little success, they often produce more problems than they solve.
They constitute superficial short-term tinkerings with long-term basic problems. Enduringly
effective solutions call for a different kind of thinking and a different kind of commitment.
It is becoming increasingly evident that such thinking and commitment cannot be
achieved without the evolution of people´s individual and collective consciousness.
If we are to cope with the problems that face us today and in coming years, the consciousness of
today´s women and men must rise from the ego- and nation-centered dimension to a global and
planet-centered one. In this regard it still has a long way to grow.

These trends suggest that a new consciousness is surfacing at the cutting edge of society. But how
influential are the new trends and how fast will they spread? Will they be powerful enough to move
to center stage and impact on the way the great majority of the people live, and the way managers
and politicans make decisions? The answer is by no means clear. Helping to articulate and spread
the emerging consciousness is a major cause, worthy of the best minds of our day.

Having a consciousness that is in tune with our times means evolving it to the dimension where we
can understand as well as feel our new, more embracing relations with each other and with nature. It
calls for planetary consciousness. Evolving it is not a supernatural feat, nor is it one reserved for
individuals of exceptional endowment. It does not mean knowing everything about everything, nor
does it mean counting in terms of millions or billions, whether of numbers of people, hectars of
land, or barrels of oil. Rather, it means openness to new ideas, sensitivity to emerging dangers as
well as opportunities, and the ability to apprehend the humanistic and sustainable values and
priorities that can, and must, shape the next century.
