Ervin László
(1932 -)
Ervin László
(born 1932 in Budapest, Hungary) is a Hungarian philosopher of science, systems theorist, integral theorist, and classical pianist. He has published about 75 books and over 400 papers, and is editor of World Futures: The Journal of General Evolution.[1]. Moreover, he has recorded several piano concertos. László was married to Carita Jägerhorn af Spurila 16 November 1956. They have two sons.
History
In 1984, he was co-founder with Béla H. Bánáthy, Riane Eisler, John Corliss, Francisco Varela, Vilmos Csanyi, Gyorgy Kampis, David Loye, Jonathan Schull, and Eric Chaisson of the initially secret General Evolutionary Research Group.[1][2] Meeting behind the Iron Curtain, the group of scientists and thinkers from a variety of disciplines met in secret. Given the mounting threat to the human species caused by rapid proliferation of nuclear weapons and potential overkill, their goal was to explore whether it might be possible to use the chaos theory to identify a new general theory of evolution that might serve as a path to a better world.
In 1993, in response to his experience with the Club of Rome, he founded the Club of Budapest to, in his words, "center attention on the evolution of human values and consciousness as the crucial factors in changing course — from a race toward degradation, polarization, and disaster to a rethinking of values and priorities so as to navigate today's transformation in the direction of humanism, ethics, and global sustainability".[3]
Akashic Field Theory
His 2004 book, Science and the Akashic Field: An Integral Theory of Everything posits a field of information as the substance of the cosmos. Using the Sanskrit and Vedic term for "space", Akasha, he calls this information field the "Akashic field" or "A-field". He posits that the "quantum vacuum" (see Vacuum state) is the fundamental energy and information-carrying field that informs not just the current universe, but all universes past and present (collectively, the "Metaverse").
László describes how such an informational field can explain why our universe is so improbably fine-tuned as to form galaxies and conscious lifeforms; and why evolution is an informed, not random, process. He believes that the hypothesis solves several problems that emerge from quantum physics, especially nonlocality and quantum entanglement.
Macroshift Theory
Lazslo stated in his book ‘You can change the world’ that there is global choice for coming world crisis. One that can come in the form of a global breakdown centered on increasing fragmentation of economic inequality and a new arms race from rising powers. The other choice would be a global breakthrough led by international organizations. This would be by the linking of non-government organizations promoting sustainable development link using the internet.
A Macroshift is defined as a popular movement to turn the tide from a global breakdown to a global breakthrough. László sees the 2012-2020 Critical period to change the course as the coming crisis is taking shape in geopolitical current.
Global shift University
His latest project involves creating a university based on integral teaching over the internet offering a Graduate Program. Its goal is creating change accelerators which he defines as coalescing agents for social action and cultural awareness.
Honors
Ervin László participated in the Stock Exchange of Visions project in 2006.
In Hungary, the minister of environment appointed Laszlo as one of the leaders of the ministry's campaign concerning global warming[4].
