We are an active group of Evolutionaries in the Chicago area who come together on a regular basis for discussion salons and other special events. We are a dynamic part of a global movement embracing Evolutionary Enlightenment as a contemporary and visionary teaching which directly addresses our postmodern cultural context. We strive to be leaders, examples, and pathfinders in the emerging field of integral and evolutionary spirituality, and to stand for the ultimate relevance of spiritual enlightenment in our time. Through the integrated annual cycle of programs and events and award-winning publications EnlightenNext offers globally, we are awakening, connecting, and cultivating a world-wide movement of “evolutionaries”—individuals who feel personally responsible for creating the future.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Embracing the Future
Although many continue to deny it, overwhelming evidence shows that life conditions in our world are improving dramatically in just about every domain for more people than ever before in history. If the prophets of progress coming to us from fields as diverse as economics, psychology, and technological innovation are right, then we may have a non-metaphysical, non-faith-based source of hope and possibility for salvation in our midst. And this “good news” is based upon our own extraordinary achievements. This is not to deny that we have enormous problems to solve and unexpected disasters to face. It’s just that if they’re right—and I believe that they are—we have good reason to feel a lot better about ourselves and our collective future. Maybe this could inspire us not to fear the future, but to be even more deeply, spiritually motivated to create a betterfuture—and in doing so, become unapologetically positive about our role as evolving human beings at this time in history.
