1
00:00:03,337 --> 00:00:05,387
It's Time to Change

2
00:00:11,447 --> 00:00:13,550
And We Have a Plan

3
00:00:21,900 --> 00:00:24,825
Transition and The Zeitgeist Movement

4
00:00:58,492 --> 00:01:02,229
"An heedless and harrowing future is developing for our generation

5
00:01:02,229 --> 00:01:03,964
and generations to come.

6
00:01:03,964 --> 00:01:09,203
A heedless and harrowing future is developing for our generation

7
00:01:09,203 --> 00:01:11,338
and generations to come.

8
00:01:11,338 --> 00:01:14,791
But as I walk the chartered streets of this familiar oblivion,

9
00:01:14,791 --> 00:01:18,414
I recognise nothing but unyielding conciousness,

10
00:01:18,414 --> 00:01:21,582
in which we have almost comfortably drowned.

11
00:01:21,582 --> 00:01:23,615
It is madness!

12
00:01:23,615 --> 00:01:26,262
This normality is madness! It is madness!

13
00:01:26,262 --> 00:01:29,823
We are clinging to manufactured crippled constraints.

14
00:01:29,823 --> 00:01:33,694
We must no longer commute between brand-ladened homes

15
00:01:33,694 --> 00:01:38,499
and quickly accepted aimless roams from our factories of slavery

16
00:01:38,499 --> 00:01:41,235
to wars of elusive bravery.

17
00:01:41,635 --> 00:01:44,652
We must unite!

18
00:02:17,304 --> 00:02:20,107
And we must let the flood gates open."

19
00:02:21,708 --> 00:02:22,988
Here, tonight,

20
00:02:24,178 --> 00:02:26,780
I clock a thousand heads

21
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:29,883
Here to unite

22
00:02:30,837 --> 00:02:33,520
through common dreads.

23
00:03:01,849 --> 00:03:04,384
- Change does not always occur for the better.

24
00:03:04,384 --> 00:03:10,055
But it is a process that occurs regardless of the dominant values of the times.

25
00:03:10,055 --> 00:03:13,160
Even social systems undergo change.

26
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,185
Therefor, the only constant is change.

27
00:03:16,185 --> 00:03:20,100
Today, with the advent of computers, World Wide Web,

28
00:03:20,100 --> 00:03:23,270
cybernation and artificial intelligence

29
00:03:23,270 --> 00:03:28,097
the rate of change has been greatly accelerated throughout the world.

30
00:03:28,097 --> 00:03:29,443
And in the next ten years,

31
00:03:29,443 --> 00:03:35,282
we will witness more changes, then all of the past events in recorded History.

32
00:03:37,084 --> 00:03:38,732
There are no negro problems,

33
00:03:38,732 --> 00:03:43,524
or Polish problems, or Jewish problems, or Greek problems, or women's problems.

34
00:03:43,524 --> 00:03:45,071
They're human problems.

35
00:03:45,071 --> 00:03:48,996
To come into socio-cyberneering, and take your part, and function.

36
00:03:48,996 --> 00:03:52,432
We are not concerned with the divisions of segments of society.

37
00:03:52,432 --> 00:03:54,168
The way it happens is...

38
00:03:54,168 --> 00:03:56,286
the system has to fall,

39
00:03:56,286 --> 00:03:59,473
people have to lose confidence in their elected leaders.

40
00:03:59,473 --> 00:04:03,717
At that time, when they try to solve problems and it doesn't work,

41
00:04:03,717 --> 00:04:08,384
then the public will be looking for new ideas. They don't give a damn right now.

42
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,189
- The transition itself from our current system into a Resource Based Economy

43
00:04:15,189 --> 00:04:17,161
is a very complex thing to consider

44
00:04:17,161 --> 00:04:21,261
and unfortunately the variables are beyond our current foresight.

45
00:04:21,261 --> 00:04:24,164
The central issue however is awareness.

46
00:04:24,164 --> 00:04:27,215
If the public's conscienceness can be expended to understand and accept

47
00:04:27,215 --> 00:04:29,603
the incredible potentials the future can hold,

48
00:04:29,603 --> 00:04:33,373
where poverty, war, 90% of all crimes,

49
00:04:33,373 --> 00:04:37,711
along with the mundane, repetitive, meaningless jobs can be eliminated

50
00:04:37,711 --> 00:04:42,049
then I feel there will be much more likely to adjust their values accordingly.

51
00:04:42,049 --> 00:04:45,686
We're going to see more unemployment and more instability

52
00:04:45,686 --> 00:04:49,890
and sadly instability is often the prerequisite for social change.

53
00:04:49,890 --> 00:04:53,060
The problem constitute what we call bio-social pressures.

54
00:04:53,060 --> 00:04:55,229
The more destabilized things become,

55
00:04:55,229 --> 00:04:57,598
the more motivation there will be to seek an alternative.

56
00:04:57,598 --> 00:05:00,489
- So now is the time to introduce something else,

57
00:05:00,489 --> 00:05:03,437
that benefits everyone, that doesn't hurt anybody.

58
00:05:03,437 --> 00:05:06,340
We feel that the wealthiest people of today

59
00:05:06,340 --> 00:05:09,340
will leave better in a Resource Based Economy

60
00:05:09,340 --> 00:05:10,644
but they just don't know.

61
00:05:10,644 --> 00:05:14,081
So, our aim...and we feel that everybody's aim

62
00:05:14,081 --> 00:05:15,716
should be to introduce this direction,

63
00:05:15,716 --> 00:05:17,518
learn as much as you can about it.

64
00:05:17,518 --> 00:05:19,987
If you identify with it then talk to others.

65
00:05:19,987 --> 00:05:23,657
Write songs about it, do books about it, do magazine articles,

66
00:05:23,657 --> 00:05:27,959
get into the mainstream newspapers as much as possible and TV stations.

67
00:05:27,959 --> 00:05:30,964
We'd like to do a first city, when we can.

68
00:05:30,964 --> 00:05:35,302
We'd like to join all the nations of the world to share the Earth's resources.

69
00:05:35,302 --> 00:05:39,011
The Earth's resources become the common heritage of all the world's people.

70
00:05:39,011 --> 00:05:44,445
Nothing less will produce peace and harmony, like people want today.

71
00:05:56,241 --> 00:05:59,143
- And this is where The Zeitgeist Movement comes in.

72
00:06:06,700 --> 00:06:08,594
We are here to spread statistical information

73
00:06:08,594 --> 00:06:11,287
and socially positive value identifications,

74
00:06:11,287 --> 00:06:13,907
in the hope of bringing people into an awareness

75
00:06:13,907 --> 00:06:17,644
of the incredibly positive possibilities the future can hold.

76
00:06:17,644 --> 00:06:19,446
Once this understandings are fully realized,

77
00:06:19,446 --> 00:06:22,983
most people will never be able to look at the world to today in the same way.

78
00:06:22,983 --> 00:06:25,519
And the problems we find as common place today,

79
00:06:25,519 --> 00:06:29,445
we'll become simple unacceptable, motivating change.

80
00:06:29,445 --> 00:06:32,259
I would like to quickly point out that the term Zeitgeist

81
00:06:32,259 --> 00:06:37,851
is defined as the general intellectual, moral and cultural climate of an era.

82
00:06:37,851 --> 00:06:41,937
The term Movement very simply implies motion or change.

83
00:06:41,937 --> 00:06:45,305
Therefor, The Zeitgeist Movement is thus an organization

84
00:06:45,305 --> 00:06:48,642
which urges change in the dominate, intellectual, moral

85
00:06:48,642 --> 00:06:50,644
and cultural climate of the time,

86
00:06:50,644 --> 00:06:53,013
specifically the values and practices

87
00:06:53,013 --> 00:06:56,350
which would better serve the well being of the all of humanity,

88
00:06:56,350 --> 00:06:59,300
regardless of race, religion, creed

89
00:06:59,300 --> 00:07:02,356
or any other form of contrived social statues.

90
00:07:02,356 --> 00:07:04,391
Our central role, gesturally speaking

91
00:07:04,391 --> 00:07:07,528
is engaging in what I would call Social Therapy.

92
00:07:07,528 --> 00:07:09,329
The little discussed reality is that

93
00:07:09,329 --> 00:07:12,065
human beings are subject to social conditioning

94
00:07:12,065 --> 00:07:13,433
in a powerful way.

95
00:07:13,433 --> 00:07:16,904
And if we had the type of society we just described, tomorrow,

96
00:07:16,904 --> 00:07:19,339
most people would be left confused and disillusioned.

97
00:07:19,339 --> 00:07:22,743
It would be like taking a Native from the Amazon jungle

98
00:07:22,743 --> 00:07:24,578
and dropping them into New York City

99
00:07:24,578 --> 00:07:26,813
without any education what so ever.

100
00:07:26,813 --> 00:07:29,483
There behavior would be based on values

101
00:07:29,483 --> 00:07:32,510
which have no relevance in this new environment.

102
00:07:32,510 --> 00:07:36,760
In fact, ethics, morality and values are always as relevant

103
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:41,128
as the social environment propensity to support them or not.

104
00:07:41,128 --> 00:07:43,679
The Zeitgeist Movement has various projects in the works.

105
00:07:43,679 --> 00:07:45,165
We are working to educate people

106
00:07:45,165 --> 00:07:48,091
and hopefully bring them into a new perspective.

107
00:07:48,091 --> 00:07:52,155
We have teams and chapters, radio shows, films, pdf's

108
00:07:52,155 --> 00:07:54,848
and annual events to promote this direction.

109
00:07:54,848 --> 00:07:57,147
We also do not take any general donations

110
00:07:57,147 --> 00:08:00,013
and provide all of our education material for free to the public.

111
00:08:00,013 --> 00:08:01,648
We are decentralized

112
00:08:01,648 --> 00:08:04,350
and work holographically through regional chapter teams

113
00:08:04,350 --> 00:08:05,819
and project teams.

114
00:08:05,819 --> 00:08:08,188
We have no offices, we have no leaders...

115
00:08:08,188 --> 00:08:13,400
In fact, I would say that we are the initiators of what we call the transition.

116
00:08:14,261 --> 00:08:16,303
I believe Mohandas Gandhi had it correct:

117
00:08:16,303 --> 00:08:19,333
We most become the change we want to see in the world.
