Ein Gespräch mit Abhishek Thakore  

Abhishek Thakore, founder of the Blue Ribbon movement in India and the South Asian Youth Conference,

has  a vision for a new dimension of conscious social activism. He is

bringing people together in new forms of shared relationship to allow

them to develop new  co-consious fields where conflicts can be

transformed into creativity.

South Asia is one of the most troubled zones on this planet.

Countries like India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh have been in

conflict and in a state of cold war for decades. Between India and

Pakistan, this conflict could turn into a nuclear war at any moment.

In this context, Abhishek Thakore brings young leaders from these

different countries together in conferences and in online gatherings to

create seeds of shared understanding and dialogue between their

different communities. His vision is a bold one: in coming together in

this way we develop “new sense organs” where it is possible to see our

human experience from a much bigger perspective–a perspective beyond the

usual ethnic and national boundaries. If we develop global online

networks rooted in interconnectedness, we can create new sense organs

for a global human consciousness.

In this week’s Radio evolve, Thomas Steininger talks with Abhishek Thakore about his experience in creating creativity from conflict in the Blue Ribbon Movement and the South Asian Youth Conference.
