Emanuel is the founder of various large-scale movements. He is also an entrepreneur, writer, journalist, philosopher, philanthropist, quantum physicist, and activist for social transformation who has had many lived encounters with spiritual masters. Emanuel founded Greenheart International in 1985, and is the co-founder of Fundación por el Futuro in Madrid, Spain, serving as President since 1995. He is the founding co-creator of the Global Purpose Movement and Purpose Earth, and a member of the Evolutionary Leaders Circle. His most current project is developing the theory of the Holomovement as a movement to unite humanity through our collective purpose.
Emanuel Kuntzelman: Yeah, I'll try and keep it as brief as I can. Going back to the paper I wrote for the sociology class in Tulane, I developed a concept of how to get people to collaborate and work together and cooperate. I designed it as a wheel. I said the hub is what holds the wheel together.
The spokes are organizations that would collaborate to make this work. But really, it's a hub. It's kind of an iron ring with an empty center. That is the key to hold it together to make people cooperate so we're not all in our individual silos and we can share resources, et cetera, et cetera.
The doctor hadn't really liked the paper. He said, you gotta have a name for this wheel. And I said, I don't have the name yet. I'll work on it.
Fifteen years after that, I ran into another mentor of mine, a specialist in career theory, who I told my story to. He was very excited about it. He created what he called the Life Career Foundation. Dr.
David Teiteman said that we all have a life career. Most of us have trouble finding it or keeping it. But we do have this divine path in life, and if we're loyal to it, it will unveil itself and unfold for us. And I told him my story.
He was very excited about it. He wanted to help me, and he did. He said, let me ask you this, what do you know about quantum physics? I said, absolutely nothing.
He said, okay, first thing you gotta do is give yourself an education in quantum physics, and I will help you. And he sent a whole box of books, this is 1984, to my doorstep, full of books on quantum physics, which I promptly began to read. And there was one tiny little volume in there. It was called Wholeness in the Implicate Order, by David Bohm.
And I'm reading this book, and Bohm is saying, well, the problem with quantum physics is there are so many hidden variables that we don't understand them. But that is all the implicate order, the divine source, everything under the surface that we cannot measure. But it's there, it affects the emergence of the cosmos, the implicate order. And then everything we can measure and see and sense, that's the explicate order.
And that sounds like a very dualistic interpretation, he said, but it's totally the contrary. Because the theory here is that the universe is undivided, unbroken wholeness. It is all one, always was, always will be, it's united, it's one, it's whole. So if we have implicate and explicate, there's gotta be something that ties it all together.
And we will call that the Holo Movement. And when I read that, the fireworks went off, the light bulbs flashed, whatever analogy you wanted to call it, but I said.
Paulette Pipe: Excuse me, ask, interrupting, was there a tree involved?
Emanuel Kuntzelman: Well, sort of, yeah, I was sitting out, I lived in a little townhouse at the time and there was a weeping willow tree and I was actually reading that book under the willow tree.
Paulette Pipe: Okay.
Emanuel Kuntzelman: That's very clever. So yeah, I said, aha, that's the name. It's called the Hola Movement. But then I went on multiple iterations, attempts, ups and downs, and rounds and bouts, till the real time and place was come, and enough people asked, and enough people were curious, so...
It wasn't really until 2019 that I said, at this point, I don't care if anybody's gonna ask or not, I'm getting too old! I gotta get something done before I actually run out of time myself, so that's when I began working on Ernest in... Utilizing the original theory I'd conjured up back at Tulane. Then I developed a wave theory interpretation of Bohm's pilot wave.
No big quantum physics equations. In your very kind introduction, you said I'm a quantum physicist. That is not true. I've never taken a single formal class in quantum physics, so might as well tell it like it is.
Paulette Pipe: Maybe it's by osmosis because of all the things you've taken on to bring the Holod movement into.
Emanuel Kuntzelman: Well, yeah, I have spent the last 40 years here reading everything about quantum physics that I can get my hands on, so maybe I did educate myself a little bit. But, anyway, that all led to the really taking the whole movement and. Planning it, but I realized the key to the whole movement was that it was a movement. It's not an organization, so that was a big mistake.
Been making it can't be operated by a board owned by anybody. It has to be a true spirit of collaborative effort working together with Bonian dialogue as a guideline of how we listen to each other, and that's the only way that it could be anything close to being true and authentic. It's now working out very well.
