We must shake off our slumber and awaken to wisdom. Not in the placid hereafter, but here in the seething
flux of life’s dream.
— Pir Zia Inayat Khan

We support projects inspired to create and express an emerging consciousness of oneness across many different fields, including but not limited to: arts & culture, Earth literacy and new science, mentorship and education, new media, philanthropy, social and cultural healing, economics, the reintroduction of values associated with the feminine, and through wisdom teachings from different traditions that can bring this awareness into the fabric of everyday life.

For more examples of the myriad possible ways to work for and within a consciousness of oneness, please see our Recent Grants for examples of our funding in this area.
