About Realigo
We are exploring and creating a new future.
Our species is capable of so much more. What is our potential?
Our society will be a place of peace and love, of limitless, unhindered unfolding of our abilities. How do we get there?
Our minds are restricted to a fixed framework of possibilities. How do we blast it?
‘Realigo’ is an Esperanto word meaning realization, fruition. We will expand the horizons of human thinking and believing, gently, violently, with rigor and love. From there, we will explore the uncountable new options and show ways to act, ways to realize them.
Words have power, stories create reality.
We human beings are storytellers. The stories we believe in are empowering, limiting, connecting, excluding. They form our lives, being wings or prisons. We get told ‘to be the hero of our life’, ‘to write our own story’. We need to be free to do that properly. To be free, we need three things. Knowledge, awareness, and insight. The knowledge of the manifold stories that are already entangling us in every moment to break free from their influence. The awareness of when stories stretch their tentacles into our existence to stay independent. The insight who we really are to write our very own, independent story.
Everything is connected. That is what empowers us to act. We actually know that a sack of rice toppling in China has an effect. In other words, we believe in the relevance of individual action. By telling and spreading ideas, we will create change.
Our ideas are positive, creative visions of the future we can already see. They are pros, not cons.
We are not fighting, not competing for that future. There are no enemies, no good and evil, no black and white. The world we live in and the future we are talking about is no battleground. It doesn’t rise from ruins. It jumps into existence the moment we start talking about it.
The supporters of this task will come, flocking to our welcoming and friendly standard without looking back to where they came from.
They will just come, without effort.
Our task is worthy and virtuous.

No preaching
‘We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.’
– Mahatma Gandhi
