SUMUS
Our ambition
Emergence of a new humanist consciousness
For an environmentally sustainable, socially equitable and economically viable society, SUMus endorses Gandhi's motto: " Be the change you want to see in the world ".
SUMus means “ we are ” in Latin and wishes to replace individualism with the collective and Having with Being.
“ Become who you are ” said Picasso. By becoming aware of their uniqueness and their potential, each individual will freely express their talents to achieve personal fulfillment and to bring them to the world.
Each individual will also become aware that all human beings are connected to each other and to the world around them, the fauna, the flora, the planet, the cosmos…
SUMus will thus promote the emergence of a human conscience enlightened by knowledge for a respectful and sustainable future .
The culture of “AND” replaces that of “OR”
SUMus is apolitical, ecumenical, resolutely positive and inclusive.
For too long you had to be right or left, believer or atheist, spiritualist or materialist, conservative or avant-garde...
Now the time has come to replace the “OR” with “AND”.
SUMus carries the masculine AND the feminine, spirituality AND materiality, tradition AND modernity, the visible AND the invisible, the short term AND the long term, the body AND the spirit…
By combining the different polarities, SUMus intends to create a balance capable of revealing the harmony of a new world.
