An underlying wish for change

Guests seek us for different purposes: some to heal; some to gain clarity; and some to simply rest – in all, there´s, however, an underlying wish for change. It’s beautiful to be surrounded by this willingness and see people’s faces, not their masks.

Magic comes up in different ways

Attention follows intention and intimacy leads the way in the safe container we create. The first days are to ground, reconnect to the body, and quieten the mind as the digital and substance detox lands. As the week progresses, each guest is bound to find their pathway to awaken something inside. The shift can occur on the second, fifth or seventh day, it can be through breathwork; meditation, or in the 1:1 energy healing session. It can be simply while eating a beautiful raw vegan dessert or through listening to Vlada de Sousa spiritual teachings – magic comes up in different ways and I’ve learned not to get attached to any specific detail.

Bali is the perfect container

In the Soul Revival program in Bali, the silent day is an additional opportunity to observe thoughts and disidentify from them – this is life-changing when fully taken in, and conscious journaling is a definitive supporting tool to create space from our habitual thinking. The energy of never-ending rituals and ceremonies on the island and the intensity of the water temples provide the ultimate space for guests to surrender.

Surrender to the process

I and Vlada debrief at the end of each retreat day and keep track of each guest’s awakening moment – our job is only done once we see this new light in each individual. We inevitably hug each other and smile as soon as the process is complete – Bliss Body Journeys purpose and mission is very tangible. The photo above captures one of those moments in which everything changes – it was my absolute delight to witness it as I saw Vanessa’s features radically shift into full divine acceptance.

We await you later in the year for more retreats in the island of gods.

Vlada’s own transformative journey inspired the birth of her luxury wellness retreat brand—an oasis for soulful healing and rejuvenation through immersive retreats on this sacred land.

Join us as we delve into the ancient mystical traditions of Ubud, Bali. Combined with guided spiritual practices, these traditions become a catalyst for lasting inner change.

What Makes Ubud so Unique and Appealing for Your Sacred Journey

Ubud’s history is woven with of ancient legends, cultural evolution, and spiritual practices. The town’s origins can be traced back to the 8th century when the Javanese Hindu priest Rsi Markandeya established a temple in the area. This temple, now known as Pura Gunung Lebah, became a focal point for spiritual activities and marked Ubud as a place of significance.

Over the centuries, Ubud developed into a cultural and spiritual hub, drawing artists, scholars, and healers. The royal family of Ubud played a crucial role in promoting the arts, establishing Ubud as the cultural heart of Bali. Today, Ubud continues to be a beacon for those seeking artistic inspiration and spiritual solace, offering a unique blend of ancient traditions and contemporary practices.

The Sacred Volcano Agung and the Religion of Holy Water

Mount Agung, Bali’s highest and most sacred volcano, holds a profound place in Balinese spirituality. Considered the home of the gods, Agung is revered as a source of life and spiritual energy. Its presence is deeply intertwined with the religious practices of the Balinese people, who honor the volcano through extensive ceremonies and offerings.

The religion of holy water, or Tirtha, plays a crucial role in balinese sacred rituals. Tirtha is not merely water; it is a conduit for divine blessings and purification. Used in temple ceremonies, purification rituals, and daily offerings, Tirtha symbolizes spiritual cleansing and connection to the divine. The act of honoring the gods with holy water underscores the Balinese belief in maintaining harmony between the physical and spiritual worlds.

Local Healing Rituals

Healing is deeply embedded in Ubud’s daily life. Traditional Balinese healing practices, known as “Usada,” combine herbal medicine, energy healing, and spiritual rituals connected to the moon cycles. Life in Ubud can truly be described as a never-ending ceremony.

A significant aspect of healing in Ubud is the ritual of Melukat, a purification ceremony aimed at cleansing the body and soul from negative influences. Melukat ceremonies are often conducted in temples with natural springs, such as Pura Tirta Empul, where participants bathe in the holy water to achieve spiritual renewal. Typically performed on the full moon, this energy cleansing ceremony offers profound emotional release.

Spiritual Meditation Retreat in Ubud

Taking part in a spiritual meditation retreat in Ubud offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the serene and mystical atmosphere, fostering profound personal growth and spiritual awakening.

Bliss Body Journeys offers a 7-day Soul Revival Spiritual Retreat guided by expert healer and spiritual teacher Vlada de Sousa. This retreat is meticulously crafted to provide deep spiritual transformation, soul-searching, and healing for people of all backgrounds and levels of practice.

Participants stay in luxurious accommodations that blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings, providing a peaceful sanctuary for introspection and rejuvenation.

Daily meditation sessions deepen your practice and cultivate a connection with the Self. Yoga classes, held in an open-air pavilion overlooking rice fields and lush forests, enhance energetic well-being and physical alignment.

Beyond the structured daily routines, the retreat includes pilgrimages to local temples for healing, allowing guests to experience the spiritual energy of Ubud firsthand. These immersive experiences, combined with personalized attention and care, create a nurturing environment for transformation and renewal.

A Memory That Lasts a Lifetime

Combining Ubud’s timeless traditions with modern spiritual practices creates a powerful catalyst for personal growth and healing. The profound impact of this fusion nurtures a sustained sense of balance and spiritual enlightenment. As you return to your daily life, the peace and clarity gained from this sacred experience will continue to guide you.

Those who have felt the potent healing energy of Ubud often find themselves returning, seeking further enhancement of their original experience.

We look forward to creating long-lasting memories and making a deep impact on everyone’s spiritual path.

The post Why Ubud<span> is a perfect place for healing?</span> appeared first on Bliss Body Journeys.

Within this drowning hectic routine, the sensitive nature of a human being inevitably gets burnt out. Almost every third person suffers from a mild to dangerous form of depletion and exhaustion.

Burnout is a state of physical, mental, and emotional exhaustion, caused by prolonged exposure to high pressure, and deadlines. Usually resulting from demanding work schedules, it has been defined by World Health Organization (WHO) as a work-related disturbance. However, anyone can experience its symptoms, regardless of their profession or personal circumstances.

Identify the roots of burnout

The first step in preventing burnout is to identify the risk. Burnout starts appearing as a tremendous sense of tiredness, lack of energy and inspiration. It can also be signaled as a depressed state, lack of clarity, feeling isolated, inability to be productive or creative, apathy, and even systemic health issues.

Connecting these symptoms to the root cause helps people get awareness of their disconnected state, so they can slowly build a ladder to begin their healing process.

Even though the ideal solution would be to take at least two weeks’ break and go on a retreat, it is not always possible to do so. To navigate this serious health issue, it is crucial to get support from therapists, or a wellness practitioner. As well as meditation teacher or energy healing practitioner, that can speed up the recovery.

Slower pace lifestyle

When on the verge of burnout, one must find ways to minimize stress and pressure. To create personal boundaries and take only as much as you can really handle can seem impossible but soon becomes not negotiable – consciously preventing a breakdown is more sustainable than actually rebuilding your life from a place of absolute depletion. Saying no is a powerful tool

Wellness hygiene is crucial, such as going to bed no later than 11 pm, intaking less caffeine and practising mindful eating. But one practice in particular has been emerging as a powerful tool against burnout: guided meditation.

At the core of losing touch with oneself and feeling turned apart lies destructed attention. In these overwhelming times, when one is constantly stimulated and demanded, the mind loses its centre and gets overwhelmed. We cannot talk about mental and emotional health when our attention is diffused and overstimulated.

As we navigate through high intensity states, giving your attention a break by closing one’s eyes for 5 minutes and letting the mind settle becomes another obvious healing tool.

Meditation heals the overwhelmed mind

People often experience life through the mental perception of things, and when the mind becomes heavy, life itself starts to feel unbearable. The Indian guru Ramana Maharshi once said: “Mediation applies the brakes to the mind”. And by doing so, we are letting ourselves to slow down.

Guided Meditation can become a ritual of conscious rest and self-nourishment. Scientifically speaking, it is proven to lower the levels of cortisol, a hormone that is released in response to stress. Also, it activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for deeply resting the body, reducing heart rate, blood pressure, and muscle tension.

From mild to severe burnt-out state, practice of Meditation will become an oasis of presence, allowing to continue the day at a slower pace and being aware of the level of energy available at a moment.

Integrate meditation into the routine

There is no independent area of life. Everything is interconnected, weaved together by an invisible thread that creates the unity of all. And to build a healthy life is to heal and enhance every single aspect of it.

Just like medicine, to truly feel the benefits of meditation, a regular practice is needed. Saving a few minutes every day is enough to reconnect with the ground that sometimes seems to be gone. Following the breath that leads to the present moment is a shield against overthinking, and frequent practice improves its capacity.

However, it is not always easy to create – nor to maintain – this habit. To set the foundations for burnout healing and adopting practice of mindfulness and meditation the best way is to take time and go on a retreat. In the space without destructions and stressors, designed for slowing down, one can truly heal the nervous system and recover higher levels of energy.

With that in mind, Bliss Body Journeys carefully designs programs to support those who wish to incorporate meditation into their daily lives. Anchored in the so-called grounded spirituality, they expose people to the balancing point between mundane experiences and spiritual fulfilment. Suitable for all levels, their meditation retreats and virtual programs provide tools to better navigate through difficult times, helping one to create a shelter within.

In this interview, Bliss Body Journeys’ Founder & Spiritual Teacher, Vlada de Sousa, presents the new version of her signature meditation retreat, “Divine Body”, which will be launched in Spring next year.

Tell me more about this new meditation retreat in Portugal. What is the intention behind it?

Well, the “Divine Body” program was the first program that I have created for Bliss, and in a way it is directly linked to the identity of the brand itself.

Basically, it is an integral holistic program designed for guests to come back to their complete sense of self. According to yoga tradition, we don’t have just this physical body, we have five different bodies (koshas). The physical, energetic, mental, the body of wisdom, and the bliss body.

These five bodies function like different layers, from the more dense one, the physical body, until the most subtle and spiritual one, the bliss body. Which was exactly my inspiration when I founded Bliss Body Journeys, in 2016.

The bliss body, that I also call Divine Body, is a state of pure light, a true experience of ourselves as infinite beings. When we access this very subtle layer, we remember our most blissful state. But to access it, we must heal all other layers, not just the physical and mental bodies.

So, the intention behind this meditation and yoga retreat is to hold space for healing but also to guide guest through practices capable of bringing all the five bodies into full alignment.

But how does it work?

There is, of course, a map that I have tailored. We begin by cleansing and purifying each one of these layers, releasing any buildup of old energies or energetic blocks through yoga, breathwork, yoga Nidra and meditation.

After this healing phase, we begin to recover ourselves, filling our being with vibrant clean energy, making us feel entirely renewed. That is why I call it integral holistic program, because it realigns every aspect of ourselves.

I’ve been teaching and developing this program for many years now, and it is a very beautiful process to witness. When I see the difference in the energy of our guests, from their arrival until the closing ceremony, it completely reaffirms my purpose in life.

And I feel it is so vitally important to go through this process. Because, in everyday life, we have so many things to do, that we don’t get to stop and really take care of all our bodies, not only physical. Maybe you get to find one hour to go to the gym, or to practice yoga and meditation, but it is not enough to access all the subtle layers that also need maintenance.

That is why many guests choose to repeat this experience. It becomes an annual ritual of renewal and replenishment, a week dedicated to profound self-care for our being.

As you said, this program was created right in the foundation of Bliss Body Journeys, still in Bali. How did it evolve during these last seven years?

Just like I evolved as a mentor and spiritual teacher, the signature programs have been evolving along with me. But, as always, they keep the transformational aspect at their core. The intention behind “Divine Body” experience keeps on being the same, what changed were the tools I use to guide people through the process.

I am constantly upgrading my skills, and bringing in more healing modalities, that naturally reflects on every program that I design. For example, nowadays, I work a lot more with breathwork and energy healing, which proved themselves to be powerful tools for multilevel harmonization.

The practices may also change according to the teacher that will facilitate Divine Body program. In Portugal, I will be the one holding the retreat but in Hong Kong, for example, where this program is currently running, we find ways to bring their tools and expertise to facilitate the same intention.

And I want to share how marvelous is it to be able to work with our so-talented Hong Kong team, but I am very excited to be back teaching the renewed “Divine Body” in Europe.

And now it is time for Portugal. So, what do you think this location will add up to the experience?

When it comes to Portugal, what speaks to me the most is the energy of the Atlantic Ocean. It is so healing and deep, very powerful and cleansing. Also, Portugal offers a sense of spaciousness. Nature here is still quite intact, and we get to explore the beach but also retreat amongst tall and green trees.

Here, we may get the feeling of breathing widely, expanding more and more. In such a modern and technological world, the possibility of simply enjoying space is really not easy to find. So I am quite curious to see how Portugal’s energy will enhance the retreat experience.

But I am also very happy about the venue we chose for it. It is a stunning place in South Alentejo, a region that has over 300 days of sun during the year. Fantastic. And the place has a lot of trees and open spaces, even for us to do our practices.

It is really an amazing retreat space. Very wide and secluded, with really gorgeous views. It is a place for reflection, perfect for healing and cocooning. Without ever having to abstain of comfort and privacy, of course. Especially if you choose to stay in the Bungalow, a separated cabana with breathtaking views.

I think Portugal will be a special location for our sacred journeys, and we cannot wait to host our treasured seekers in this part of the world.

Vlada de Sousa works as a meditation teacher, energy healer, and spiritual mentor, helping people all over the world on their path to self-realization. The new version of her signature program is being launched next April in Portugal. Learn more about it here.

Vlada de Sousa is a meditation teacher, energy healer and the Founder of Bliss Body Journeys. In order to support people to find those so wanted answers, she has created a new program, a 6-day meditation retreat to dive within and to pull back the light of our soul.  

Following years of traveling to find the right location for your meditation and yoga retreats, what inspired you to create this program?   

I’ve been working 1:1 with people all over the world for many years now and what I sense is that people are unsatisfied, there is something lacking. Even those who have already accomplished a successful career or a loving family are still searching, but they don’t know what they are looking for. 

People come to me and say that, even though they have everything, they feel like something essential is missing. That is when the journey begins, when we accept the emptiness and decide to dive into it, so we can pull our soul back to fill in all the spaces in between. 

So I decided to curate an immersive experience for our guests just like I do with my private students remotely and across time. “Soul Revival” is a 6-day process of investigation and exploration. I want to help people remember that we are not just our bodies, minds, or the identity we’ve been reproducing ever since we were kids. We are a soul. And this meditation retreat was made specifically for those who I call soul seekers. 

So you think people are lacking a spiritual connection? 

Absolutely! I started to notice that on some level all of us are still trying to figure out who we are, what is life about, and what is really important. Whichever stage we are in life, this is still consistently experienced. 

Especially in this modern world, where there is a continuous need of chasing something, trying to get there, to do more, to be more, to see more, to experience more. This never-ending search leaves us with a sense of lack, which might make us a little bit depressed or unsettled with ourselves.  

It is time for people to turn inwards. We chase all those things, but in fact, what we are really looking for is ourselves. And sometimes we look inside and all we see is dry inhospitable land. It might not be an easy process but we must cross this desert until we find the oasis within.  

That is why I have made it my life-long purpose to support people in this self-discovery journey. Helping them understand their light, powers and gifts, but also helping them to create an intimate relationship with themselves, healing their inner dialogue and connecting with their intuition. Because truly we came into this life to discover who we are and to become more and more our own light. 

“Soul Revival” is about going deeper, overcoming social pressures and finding out that there is way more to this human experience.  

But how do people reach this state of connection?  

Well, first of all, people need to quit the action state. That is exactly what a meditation retreat is made for, to encourage guests to slow down. Only when we do that, do we start to connect with more subtle layers, feeling ourselves on an energetic and spiritual level.  

In the “Soul Revival” process, I will help people reestablish the interconnectedness between the human mind and the soul. So they begin to awaken to the experience of self, which is much broader than our usually limiting beliefs. When we get there, things become really clear and we get to see everything as it is. 

I want people to leave knowing how to find the answers inside of them. Because we all know the questions will never ever stop. What is important is that we understand where to look for the answers, and that is always inside of us. 

Our intuition is the most powerful guidance, we must allow it to guide us. And, of course, have the courage to trust and follow it. Reviving your soul means rediscovering this power.  

And which practices people can expect to do?  

My teaching style is very experiential. Instead of explaining something, so we rationalize it, I prefer to take guests on a journey, so they get to actually experience what we are talking about. This way, the mind plays a secondary role, and there is more space within for healing and connection. 

In the daily practices there is meditation, yoga and breathwork. As I said, I like to explore, so we will always be trying different approaches and practices. But since I am interested in encouraging people to clear space in order to connect with their inner self, I will be using a lot of breathwork, which helps us release unprocessed energies and feelings.  

There is a very special feature of this program, though. I decided to explore a bit more of Mauna, which is the ancient practice of keeping silence. Bliss Body Journeys has been holding very successful silent retreats in Hong Kong, and I wanted to bring a little bit of this energy to “Soul Revival”.  

During the retreat, we will have one full day of Noble Silence, as it really opens the door towards hearing the voice of our soul. When we take a vow of Silence, our voice of wisdom begins to arise and communicate through us, and we start having great insights about life in general.  

Is it suitable for beginners, though?  

Well, I would say “Soul Revival” is a program for everyone who has a soul and with that I mean, all humans (laugh). But really, It is great when guests have already a little bit of experience with yoga, meditation, or even psychology. However, it is not necessary at all.  

To be honest, the depth of the practices depends a lot on the student. So, if you’re a very experienced practitioner, this can be a great opportunity to go even deeper into your practice and self-exploration. On the other hand, if you’re new to the world of spirituality, it will simply open the doors to a completely new dimension. 

As I always say, the important part is to be willing to go through the process. That is what changes everything. And it is really beautiful to see the transformation in peoples’ eyes. Because when we realize that we are not just a set of thoughts in our head, a big shift happens. We start engaging in life from a different perspective and the transformation is inevitable.  

I will be there every step of the way, supporting them and clarifying questions. I really love seeing people who come to the retreat with their preconceived ideas and leave in a way more expansive state. It brings me so much fulfillment! That is exactly why I do what I do.  

How about the location? Why did you choose Morocco?   

Morocco’s energy is very special. As you know, I work directly with the energy of the place in which we hold our sacred retreats. That is why one of Bliss Body Journeys’ pillars is our healing locations. Each place has a specific energy that elevates the experience, and Morocco’s is very particular.  

Truth is Morocco has been on my list for many years, but of course, things happen at the right time. And I must agree that there is no better time to go ahead and connect with the energy of the desert, which is a very strong energy of quietude and depth within. 

The desert withholds a lot of awakenings and spiritual insights, it is all about following through solitude in the direction of our soul. “Soul Revival” internal process is almost like crossing the desert within, and I really love that we will have this symbology available for us in Morocco.  

But also, we were able to find a stunning villa for the retreat. It is a design space where people get to have privacy, comfort, and still enjoy a beautiful and luxurious setting. It has magnificent views of the Atlas Mountains, being it from the rooms or the infinity pool. It is magical. As usual, Bliss Body Journeys hosts small groups of up to seven people, which also helps with the comfort and personalization of the journey.  

I am extremely excited about this experience in Morocco, it will be a rare mystical experience.  

Vlada de Sousa has been working as a meditation teacher, energy healer, and spiritual mentor, supporting people all over the world to transform their lives on all different levels. “Soul Revival” is the new program she designed for her brand Bliss Body Journeys. It will be launched this November in Marrakesh, Morocco. You may learn more about it here. 

The post In the quest of the soul: <span>an interview with Vlada de Sousa</span> appeared first on Bliss Body Journeys.

Wellness is one of those terms that can mean different things for different people. Only in a few years, the world has gained a vast number of experts on this topic, which is in fact many millennials old. We saw hospitality brands replace the word spa with wellness, and the global press merged different modalities into this single word, that is now a multi-billion industry.

World Health Organization (WHO) defines wellness as “the optimal state of health of individuals and groups” being it expressed as “a positive approach to living.” For this article, we will take wellness as the ability to connect with our body, mind, and spirit, allowing us to live life as an expression of inner harmony.

Many of us may experience the best relaxation massage while still stuck in a destructive inner talk. Even experienced meditators can live a full life totally detached from their inner essence, or what we call spirit. It is time to dissolve typical boundaries as body vs mind, work vs personal, and holidays vs routine, as this positive approach to living must be experienced in a fully integrated way.

By discussing with our teachers and clients, we observed a few trends that are shaping the way we plan our activities. People do dream about escaping into beauty and nature, but there is a longing for more personalized spiritual guidance, so that deep inner connection can truly occur.

Trend 1 – Ultra high-end Secret Retreats

The demand for exclusive spiritual experiences, in which people have time and space to deeply replenish their energy, revive their soul, and realign with their essence, is on the rise. It is, however, crucial that the focus is on the process and not on hospitality trivialities. Metamorphosis can only occur in a private safe container. For specific audiences, these personalized wellness immersions in healing locations amongst natural landscapes and magnificent buildings work as an initiation ritual. Transformational therapies, signature holistic nutrition, and an exquisite level of comfort set the ground for an outstanding journey that comes to life through embodied spiritual teachings.

Trend 2 – Spiritual Work on Relationships

We are witnessing a pandemic of loneliness across the globe. There is a need to heal the wounds of unworthiness and rediscover the power of the self. People do not want to keep on the surface anymore, they want to explore the profound waters of intimate relationships. However, as a society, we spent too little time learning how to love in a healthy and positive way. Faced with this reality, online offerings focused on love and relationships are taking off. Through 1:1 work or private group mentoring, they support healing processes and open participants’ hearts to deeper connections – being it with themselves, their families, lovers, or even with the divine.

Trend 3 – Conscious Corporate Retreats

The demand for truthful and lasting bonds is also entering the work environment as we irrevocably spend most of our waking life with co-workers. Conscious Corporate Retreats are an opportunity to create healthier work relationships and to build a safe ground for more open communication. Spending healing time away from the office humanizes the team dynamics. Through mediation sessions, yogic practices, and breathwork, these retreats bring renewed clarity and focus, helping the team to realign strategies and find brainstorm solutions that seem impossible while stuck at the desk.

At Bliss Body Journeys, our mission is to contribute to the upgrading of awareness around the world. We genuinely believe that by supporting our clients, guests, and partners, we can generate a ripple effect of positivity that will bring society closer to this utopic optimal state of harmony.

The post Upcoming <span>Wellness Trends</span> appeared first on Bliss Body Journeys.

We sense an urgency to change – some numb it, some try to, and others act. These modern day’s heroes seek real-life experiences and want to stop losing themselves in torrents of information, they are looking to rediscover purpose through transformation.  Virtual reality loses its appeal once we awaken to our essence, to a state of creative awareness that no filter nor app can simulate. This requires consciously choosing to set time aside, this more than ever precious resource.

Life-changing experiences

Change is an all-embracing event that shakes the ground we live in, it’s not a palliative to be used in specific parts of our life or body. It is not about the stillness of the mind, nor detoxing the physical form, or even connecting with the spirit. It is not about improving the relationships we have, or the way we relate to stress, or to consciously work on our self-esteem. It is about working holistically in all aspects at a foundational level. It is about everything.

The main wellness trend for 2022 is for the industry to raise the bar and offer real life-changing experiences, that go beyond the superficial and work on healing the roots of people’s wounds and grievances, exposing guests to new possibilities.

Ultra-High-End Retreats – #coretrend

Economical and mid-level retreats are extensively available. However, if you want to go through your process without having to worry about the temperature of the water or the quality of your linens – let alone if you can rest all night with no noise – there are not so many options out there.

Being amongst beautiful locations with breath-taking landscapes while enjoying comfort in refined accommodations is a powerful tool to create the setting for the magic to happen. Silent and fasting days, wellness rituals and treatments as well as signature holistic dining can frame the tranquillity needed to let go of defences so that the healer and teacher can touch the hearts of these modern seekers. Isolation is important: only in a slow-paced environment, with total digital freedom, guests can open themselves to transformation.

Deep work must be individual

Medicine is becoming more and more customisable, supermarkets offer dozens of milk typologies, and we are getting used to personalized services on demand. In transformational work, people no longer want generic advice with trendy keywords. They long for services that can offer them a more personal experience, through which they can learn more about themselves and find their own healing path. An experienced healer will hold a mirror so that the guests can see the steps to be taken.

The amount of people participating in a retreat is crucial. If the group is too big, the individual work cannot be truly explored, and the number of distractions increases dramatically. “During the retreats, I offer a 1:1 session to all guests, and it normally ends up being the most important moment of the experience for them. The opportunity to have a deeper connection and being able to support them in their specific issues is what is truly transformative”, says Vlada de Sousa, Founder and Spiritual Teacher at Bliss Body Journeys.

Ultra-high-end retreats for deep individual work promising life-changing experiences is not just a trend, it is our commitment for 2022, and we´ve been working with the best experts in each area to be able to ignite a ripple effect that can turn the future into a utopian kind of world.
