Metatheory, Metavision, Metademocracy

Three statements

• The present and the future is incomprehensible
  and ununderstandable without a new theory or
  metatheory
• With the help of metatheory a new vision of the
  future could be developed (metavision for
  2050-2100)
• With the help of metavision a new global
  government practice (e.g., the global society of
  the universal meta-consciousness and
  metademocracy) could be created

A blissful state of global consciousness

• It is fortunate that the civilisation of planet
  Earth has understood clearly
• that the discrepancy of the conventional colonist
  or euroatlantic knowledge is inevitable
• that the euroatlantic global society has not got
  any vision of the future, and it is not able to
  find its future
• that the euroatlantic global society has not got
  a new economical/social practice, and its present
  model of democracy has run out of force or
  weakened

1. Harbingers of a new theory

• The high level partial knowledge systems are not
  unifying, absence of a comprehensive knowledge
• The crisises of the normal and post-normal
  sciences are sequentially following each other
• There are still no convincing answers on the
  fundamental questions, e.g., what is man?, what
  is consciousness?, what is the Universe?
• The integrated philosophy of science and religion
  is slowly developing
• Etc.

1. The new theory - is it a metatheory?

• will (or could) be a unified theory of all
  sciences, religions and arts
• is a theoretical experiment to unify metaphysics
  with the theories of (quantum) physics
• is a unified theory of matter and/or
  consciousness
• is a transnational and post-colonist theory
• is unifying traditionalism and post-traditionalism
  
• as a metatheory, is the discovery of a new
  reality and knowledge

2. The dawn of a new vision of the future

• The future is incomprehensible because the
  present (and the near past) is uncertain too
• In 1989 Central Europe chose the capitalistic
  past, and became disappointed with this
  future-past
• The future is unimportant if we still think that
  it is a direct continuation of the constraint
  path of the present
• Our present is an innovation and knowledge based
  glob-local world, but what is our tomorrow?

7
2. The new vision of the future - is it a
metavision?

• The future depends, at least half percent, on us,
  and on our vision of the future
• We are preparing an integrated metavision for
  2050-2100...
• The middle of the 21. Century is (or could be) a
  consciousness based global/local society
• The future world will be a sacral (spiritual,
  transcendent) world
• The individuals will like to achieve,
  collectively and personally as well, higher
  states of consciousness

3. The dawn of a new world -governing practice
and world consciousness

• The global information society has not shifted
  yet to the knowledge-controlled era
• In the undeveloped regions the classical
  capitalistic/industrial society is being
  conserved
• While exporting the euroatlantic democracy, the
  classical democracy model has weakened and run
  out of force
• The political/power centred global governance is
  not able to handle the global conflicts
• Etc.

9
A new world-reality/world consciousness - is it a
metaconscoius-metareality?

• The future could be born from the combination of
  ecological society, spiritual economy, digital
  society, consciousness developing society etc.
• A new kind of decision-making and universal
  action space will appear
• The new world-reality/world consciousness will
  (or could) be a sacral democracy, and a
  post-religious universal civilisation and culture
  
• Local miracles - e.g., the strategy of Aba
• That which seems far, is usually very near
