The problems of our world are systemic in
nature.
They cannot be solved by piece-meal-
thinking
and fragmented actions.
6. OPEN SYSTEM Model®
The condition of the world
reflects the condition of our
mindset ...
„Should the world be different, we have to be
different.“
Mahatma Gandhi
(1869 – 1948)

Signs of the Day
„Today‘s crisis is the symptom of a fundamental
change, it is the travail of a new world. Such a
change possibly has never before occured in
history.“
Fredmund F. Malik
Handelsblatt, 13. Juli 2009
9. OPEN SYSTEM Model®
There are two traps of thinking to be
avoided ...
Fragmentation Search for solutions on
of thinking and the level of the
action problems
Man has the duty to work Problems can never be solved
against the atomization of by the same way of thinking by
the individuals and the which they have been caused
fighting of all against all
and by this taking part in it needs a change of level
the unification of the world.
Albert Einstein, 1879 – 1955
Teilhard de Chardin, 1881 – 1955
french Jesuit, Philosopher, Antropologist and
Paläontologist

This in fact is also true with our present
problems. They cannot be overcome by the same
way of mindset.
And yet we exactly try this:
We fight terrorism, poverty, crime, conflicts of
cultures, invironmental problems and deseases
by the same way of thinking, the same strategies
and methods, by which they originally came into
being. And by this we stick to the symptoms
instead of curing the real cause.

Self-centredness – a dysplasia
The individualism und the egotism, as we witness them
today, have to be considered as a neuro-biological
dysplasia ... Individuals can only live for a short time at
the expences of others. But the goal is not a short-term
advantage but success in the long term .
Men cannot continue living in a way, as if we were not
sitting in the same boat. We do not own an individual
planet for each one of us. We are much more connected
in the depth than we are ready to accept.
Dr. Gerald Hüther, German Neurobiologist

Economic System
„The ultimate function of economic systems should be to
equip the peoples and institutions of the world with the
means to achieve the real purpose of development: that is,
the cultivation of the limitless potentialities latent in human
consciousness.“
„Such economic systems will be strongly altruistic and
cooperative in nature; they will provide meaningful
employment and will help to eradicate poverty in the world.“
Bahá‘í International Community: „Valuing Spirituality in Development”,
February 1998

human development and welfare, is not worth

„Ultimately, the creation of a peaceful and just global
civilization, in which the diverse peoples of the world live
in harmony with one another and with the natural world,
will require a significant reorientation of individual and
collective goals and a profound transformation in
attitudes and behaviors.“
„Such far-reaching changes will come about only by
addressing the non-material dimension of reality and
drawing on humanity's vast spiritual resources.“
Bahá‘í International Community:
„Sustainable Development: the Spiritual Dimension“, Statement to the First
Session of the Preparatory Committee of the World Summit on Sustainable
Development, May 2001

As our own species is in the process of
proving, one cannot have superior science
and inferior morals. The combination is
unstable and self-destroying.
