What Is The Ascent of Humanity? Charles Eisenstein’s Radical Vision Explained
Charles Eisenstein’s The Ascent of Humanity challenges everything we think we know about progress. This video explores his key arguments: how the story of separation—from nature, community, and our own selves—has shaped civilization’s crisis. Eisenstein, a cultural philosopher and author, traces our trajectory from primitive wholeness to modern fragmentation, and offers a path toward reunion. You’ll learn why technology and control aren’t saving us, why compassion and interbeing might, and what it means to truly ascend as a species. If you’ve sensed that our world is broken on a fundamental level, this introduction will give you the framework to see the deeper pattern.
