Glenn Gaasland on Clubhouse

Bio

I love participating in creative dialogues about the big interesting topics, the kind of conversation which enhances wisdom, inspires promising ideas and generates a better understanding of what is real, true and possible.

My reason for being on clubhouse is to learn, get to know amazing people, and by means of good conversation becoming more wise together. So far I have been very inspired by this place.

I would describe myself as an optimistic visionary of world changing ideas. Deeply interested in consciousness, meditation, sensemaking, philosophy, psychology, communication, sustainability, all-win-systems, supersystems and collective intelligence evolution. With a lot of love for the human beings.

Living outside of Oslo, Norway.


Features of my personality:

My superpower is being an independent generalist first-principle thinker.

Through life I have loved going for walks in nature while contemplating various questions and verbalizing ideas to myself aloud. During such walks many rich ideas have gradually developed and unfolded in unexpected directions.

My worldview is continually evolving, and has lately focused on patterns of movement in space, human behavior as a connection between imagination and action, and whether the domain of “super behaviors” could be a practical path towards new kinds of community, thus creating a better world.


Influences:

I was early on influenced by the norwegian philosopher Arne Næss. He balanced deep skeptical questioning and open ended curiosity, with a temperament of playful wonder grounded in common sense. G.I.Gurdjieff and J.Krishnamurti, with their profound insights into the human mind, have been important influences on my further journey. Conversations, from an attitude of friendly curiosity and openness for whatever may arise, is a continual source of inspiration.

Meditation has become increasingly important to me. A silent hour to begin a new day. Gathering conscious energy in attention.

Among my beliefs is that paradise on earth is a real possibility and our best realistic option.
