“Human history is a Gaian dream.” ― Terence McKenna.

Gaia, the spirit of Earth, fulfills a dream as the mother of endless life forms. Her garden is a paradise, her children’s beauties, herself the epitome of feminine grace. The Gaian Dream stems not from prophetic words, not from the voice of God, but simply through the understanding that the Earth is a living system, a holobiont on a planetary scale that we are part of and utterly depend on. It draws not on magic or mysticism but science. And yet, the Gaian dream does not strip away the numinousness or spiritual power of the fact that we are part of this being, that it nurtures and sustains us, and gives our lives meaning.

The Gaian Dream acts as a communicator between diverse species and creators of infrastructure for life experience. To embody many types of biological intelligence is the aim of the wise species aptly named Homo sapiens.
