suespeaks.org/brian-swimme-lights-up-l-a Brian Swimme has been my main philosophical squeeze since the late 80s when I read his book, "The Universe is a Green Dragon." It’s a “cosmic creation story” of our billions of years of evolution with humanity at the leading edge of the known universe. As good as the book is, I’m equally enamored with its wonderful author who inspires everyone in his presence with the majesty of the universe and the privilege of being part of it. We did a memorable evening with him at my house a lot of years ago, and, when he came to L.A. recently to be on a panel and to deliver a keynote address at a local event, I had the pleasure of having him at my house again. We turned the camera on at a brunch with a few good friends (from the left it's Marina, Loren, Josie, and me) who each read him a favorite passage from "Green Dragon" to spark our conversation.

SUESpeaks.org SUE Speaks is a digital meeting place for high-minded people to be inspired and to engage with each other. Our goal is to help shift our worldview from being primarily about self-service to where caring about each other is as important as caring about ourselves. Blog posts, videos, and podcasts provide a treasure trove of food for thought.
The idea of TED talks inspired SUE Speaks, where SUE stands for Searching for Unity in Everything. SUE Speaks is a rich compendium of material, like a scrapbook, that invites comments and interaction – “amusements and inspirations along the path to a new reality.” You are invited to browse, participate, and become part of bringing about the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible.
