Reality is not empty or blind. Reality is animated by plot lines. These are the plot lines of evolution. The plot lines of evolution are Reality’s codes of desire. Reality’s desire is for Value. Eros is Value and Value is Eros. There is no split between them. It’s Eros Value. That is the plotline of the CosmoErotic universe.

In this time between worlds and time between stories, we stand poised between a potential dystopia and an unimaginably beautiful future. Only a new Story of Value as a context for our diversity can change the vector of history towards a possible utopia. Movies are often the channel through which the voice of culture discloses itself. Hidden in the public texts of culture is a movement towards a new human and a new humanity. Understanding the hidden text of She—woven into the fabric of our public stories—is a key part of this new Story of Value.

Story is the source code of culture and consciousness and of all Reality-all the way up and down the evolutionary chain. Story is the attempt to gather information about the nature of Reality and translate it into narrative frameworks bounded by Value. Stories that organize culture are Stories of Value backed by the Universe. Postmodernity argues that Reality is just a story, and that all stories are created equal (equally meaningless of inherent value) because value itself is not real. And therefore, all stories of value are but social constructs, fictions, figments of our imagination.

This audiobook introduces a range of soul-healing prescriptions, inspirational teachings, and practical tools to overcome loneliness, identify and embrace one's true self, find fulfillment, and achieve a richer, happier, and more satisfying life.

We live in a world drenched in shame. Shame is the core belief not that I did something wrong, but that I am wrong. It severs us from the inherent goodness of our desire, our body, our Eros. This split disconnects us from the beauty of our Unique Selves and fuels many of today's personal and cultural pathologies. Wilhelm Reich called it "the murder of Eros"-and it is not metaphorical, but civilizational.

In this critical time between worlds, technology is shaping the future of our lives, both as individual human beings and collectively as a species. Technology has brought great blessings in multiple vectors, and those benefits are regularly sung in the public sphere. However, the notion that technology is value-neutral is simply not true. All technology is encoded with value, pseudo-value—or tragically, with anti-value. So technology also threatens us with risks to our very existence on this planet.

We stand at a time between worlds, a time between stories—poised between dystopia and utopia. How we respond will have consequences and reverberations for many generations. First Principles and First Values offers both the most compelling diagnosis and the most effective and indeed joyful response to the looming threat of existential and catastrophic risk.

Existential Risk and the Evolution of Love offers a transformative philosophical vision for addressing the crises currently threatening humanity’s survival. At the core of this work is the concept of Existential Risk—a term encompassing the social, environmental, and technological challenges we face today. Marc Gafni proposes a bold response: the creation of a new Story of Value that sparks a Planetary Awakening in Love through the collective power of Unique Self Symphonies.

A revolution in relationships is taking place across the western world. It is happening in different ways for all people in all classes of society, and it is breathing life into a new vision of relationship and self. The product of this revolution—a third, higher level of connection called the "whole mate relationship"—promises to have a far more powerful effect on the quality, joy, and potency of our lives than any other single shift in culture since the sexual revolution of the 1960s.

In Evolutionary Church we not reclaiming a religion of love. We are for the first time in history claiming love as a religion. We are the One World Church, telling the new Universe Story through a new Gospel. The Gospel of Love.

We live in a world of outrageous pain. Postmodernity—with its correct critique of pre-modernity's often fundamentalist and dogmatic stories about value—has deconstructed value and said value is not real. At the same time, regressive religious fundamentalism is on the rise all through the world. Fundamentalism, like post-modernism, says there is no universal Field of Value. Instead, it claims that value is mediated only through its particular prism of revelation. Outrageous pain is caused when we fail to recognize that we are all in a shared Field of Value.

This book introduces a new grammar of value grounded in First Principles and First Values as the interior structure of the Universe. To live aligned with these principles is to become a post-tragic hero—not the old hero of conquest, but a new, tender, fierce lover of value. The hero is the one who stands for value and is willing to even die for value. The premodern hero is pre-tragic. For him, value is clear. There are no conflicts, there is only one version of value that is right. That version is sourced in direct revelation which takes place only within his native or chosen religion.

This audiobook explores the dangers of a broken sensemaking and information ecology in a time between worlds and time between stories. We are faced with two bad alternatives: to blindly dismiss all conspiracy theories or to blindly buy into all their claims. Both are wrong choices.

Reality is not merely a fact; Reality is a story. Reality is not an ordinary story; Reality is a love story. Reality is not an ordinary love story; Reality is an Evolutionary Love story. The plotline of the story is the Evolution of Love. This plotline follows a pattern. This pattern is not dialectical (two) but trialectical (three). The pattern is the Three Stations of Eros. The Three Stations of Eros is the core pattern of Reality. In Solomon lineage of Hebrew mysticism these Three Stations are called submission, separation and sweetening.

World Religion as a Context for Our Diversity is a collection of “oral essays” by Dr. Marc Gafni that offers a new “Story of Value” in response to the collapse of a shared global ethos. In many ways, we must reclaim religion as part of this story—not a return to traditional forms of religion but a shared Story of Value as a context for our diversity. At the core of world religion is a universal grammar of value. This grammar of value writes the chapters of a new Story of Value, not as mere conjecture or a constructed narrative, but as a story rooted in the value structure of Reality itself.

In a time between devolution and evolution, between destruction and creation, the response that is needed is a new story. This book is a sacred call to step into your evolutionary purpose, join with others in synergistic action, and co-create a world infused with Evolutionary Love. This book weaves together timeless wisdom and evolutionary spirituality to ignite a planetary awakening. Through guided meditations and prayers, transformative teachings, and a vision for humanity’s next step, this book guides you beyond the false separations of ego into the fullness of your Unique Self.

We are at a choice point in history. In what Marc Gafni calls a “Death Star moment of our species,” we stand between collapse or radical breakthrough. Our global crises are symptoms of something deeper: the breakdown of Eros and the deconstruction of intrinsic value—the collapse of a shared Field of Value and the intimacy that binds us. This book offers a potent response: the birth of Homo amor universalis—the new human and the new humanity. Homo amor universalis is the human being who incarnates Evolutionary Love and participates consciously in Evolution: The Love Story of the Universe.

We live in a time between worlds and a time between stories. The demand, obligation, and joy of this time is to cross over. This is what we have called The Crossing. At the core of the crossing is the evolutionary journey from Homo sapiens to Homo amor. This is not a fanciful conjecture but an authentic evolutionary potential. The root of the meta-crisis is not a crisis of resources; it is a crisis of imagination. We need to reimagine our identity and in doing so reimagine the future. We address anew the three great questions of life: Where am I, where are we? Who am I, who are we?

We live at a moment of global action paralysis, which is rooted in a global intimacy disorder. We have exiled intimacy to only human relationships and sexuality. But intimacy is the fabric of Reality itself. The exile of intimacy has left us feeling disconnected from each other and from the evolutionary impulse itself. This book is an invitation to reclaim intimacy as a core structure of Reality. We live in an Intimate Universe. The story of evolution is not random—it is driven by Evolutionary Eros. Reality is not a fact; it’s a Story, and it’s going somewhere—it has direction.

We Are God's Unique Intimacy is a clarion call to revolutionary transformation. At the heart of these teachings lies a radical insight: You are a Unique Self-an irreducibly unique expression of the LoveIntelligence and LoveBeauty that is the animating and initiating Eros and energy of All-That-Is. You are the personal face of the universal, uniquely incarnate as you. Allurement is a core structure of Cosmos. Therefore, when we align with the core truth of Cosmos, when we awaken to our Unique Self, we are allured to come together to form a Unique Self Symphony.
