Besides, we may not have an alternative if we want to survive as a species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, it is best to strive for it as a certainty. This certainty is made possible by all who confidently believe in it. At least, <a href=\"https:\/\/aurelis.org\/blog?p=1550\">such a certainty<\/a> works as an effective autosuggestion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In-depth, seriously<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not the time or place to beat around the bush. \u2018Human depth\u2019 may, to many humans, be pretty vague as a concept, or they may not believe in it or think it\u2019s just something for poets. Taken seriously, however, it may be humanity\u2019s most important asset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what will it be?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I believe in the crucial importance of human depth.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People from different cultures profoundly overlap, even though this contrasts with the immense diversification of cultures at the surface level. Most clarifying in this is <a href=\"https:\/\/aurelis.org\/blog?p=6819\">Compassion<\/a> \u2015 say, depth in communicating with and caring for others as for oneself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In person, through the Internet, and through works of literature from many different cultures, I have come to see Compassion as crucial everywhere and to everyone. Even if nothing else binds us, this would be enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Compassion is crucial to people\u2019s understanding of each other\u2019s depth despite their differences.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, for planetarianism to succeed, it is mandatory to invite Compassion. This is by far not evident. My endeavor to support this is the \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/aurelis.org\/blog?p=9194\">DailyTwinkles to Planetarianism<\/a>\u2019 project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, Compassion breeds Compassion. People who feel it may be glad to contribute. I hope there will be enough to make that project a big success. If so, we will have a global community of like-minded, Compassion-oriented people. That is worth the effort, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If it all succeeds, this community may even have some profound influence on several sociocultural issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mediation may be needed.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The intended intercultural communication will undoubtedly come with quite a few challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/aurelis.org\/blog?p=4007\">Transformative mediation<\/a> will, therefore, be needed for sure. This has the dual goals of personal growth and more profound communication. In the project mentioned above, much will hopefully be learned about how to accomplish this interculturally. The lessons will regularly engender blogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A warned person is worth two.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s good to warn people about the intercultural challenge, which may be experienced as an opportunity to grow in many ways and to the advantage of everybody.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I see in it a lot of \u2018energy\u2019 (human deep motivation) becoming available all over the planet. Will this be <a href=\"https:\/\/aurelis.org\/blog?p=1710\">turned into excellence<\/a>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exciting times.<\/p>\n<div data-object_id=\"11133\" class=\"cbxwpbkmarkwrap cbxwpbkmarkwrap_no_cat cbxwpbkmarkwrap-post \"><a  data-redirect-url=\"https:\/\/aurelis.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11133\"  data-display-label=\"0\" data-show-count=\"0\" data-bookmark-label=\" \"  data-bookmarked-label=\" \"  data-loggedin=\"0\" data-type=\"post\" data-object_id=\"11133\" class=\"cbxwpbkmarktrig  cbxwpbkmarktrig-button-addto\" title=\"Bookmark This\" href=\"#\"><span class=\"cbxwpbkmarktrig-label\"  style=\"display:none;\" > <\/span><\/a> <div  data-type=\"post\" data-object_id=\"11133\" class=\"cbxwpbkmarkguestwrap\" id=\"cbxwpbkmarkguestwrap-11133\"><div class=\"cbxwpbkmarkguest-message\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"cbxwpbkmarkguesttrig_close\"><\/a><h3 class=\"cbxwpbookmark-title cbxwpbookmark-title-login\">Please login to bookmark<\/h3>\n\t\t<form name=\"loginform\" id=\"loginform\" action=\"https:\/\/aurelis.org\/blog\/wp-login.php\" method=\"post\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<p class=\"login-username\">\n\t\t\t\t<label for=\"user_login\">Username or Email Address<\/label>\n\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"log\" id=\"user_login\" class=\"input\" value=\"\" size=\"20\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p class=\"login-password\">\n\t\t\t\t<label for=\"user_pass\">Password<\/label>\n\t\t\t\t<input type=\"password\" name=\"pwd\" id=\"user_pass\" class=\"input\" value=\"\" size=\"20\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<p class=\"login-remember\"><label><input name=\"rememberme\" type=\"checkbox\" id=\"rememberme\" value=\"forever\" \/> Remember Me<\/label><\/p>\n\t\t\t<p class=\"login-submit\">\n\t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" name=\"wp-submit\" id=\"wp-submit\" class=\"button button-primary\" value=\"Log In\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"redirect_to\" value=\"https:\/\/aurelis.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11133\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/form><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can people from different cultures sufficiently understand each other to contribute significantly to the intercultural exchange of profound communications?
