We are guided by an emerging sense of community, interconnecting all of humanity at multiple levels, ranging from the intimately local and immediate, involving our immediate family or environment, and expanding to include others in our neightborhood or city or region or nation, or including all people anywhere who are interested in similar things or hold similar values.

Community is a powerful guiding concept, and by developing resonance within communities, we believe that people everywhere can release and realize their own highest potential. Resonant communities open the way to powerful collective intelligence and new ways to collaborate. Resonance becomes "the spirit of community", interconnecting people, building and reinforcing a sense of trust, and empowering collective action.

Circles are the essence of community. Circles are the most powerful and direct way to build and empower the spirit of community.
