future CCI questions

Written by Niek | 03 November 2010

Since the start in 1974, after the transformation, the CCI approach to handle your personal emotions in a practical and effective way, many thousands have benefit from it in a growing number of countries. And they still does. Though they do or may not all practice it since in an organisational relationship. The approach itself is still in progress. As we all are. The process of CCI itself unfolds and develops with, and according to our own, personal transition, by the years. More than ever before – anyway in my perception – the absence of any authoritarian control in this approach, and so being obliged to accept only our own responsibility – has unfold itself as a basic ingredient of CCI. The inter personal attention has evolved into a far more transpersonal awareness while opening the attention into the spiritual fields.
This ongoing process will further develop as long as human beings are triggered by curiosity about what, why and how their lives unfold. Emotions are like milestones, marking our lives by what happens to us. And the need to handle them properly, according to our personal needs, will be – as it always has been – an ongoing process. Because of that we have to face now, in my view, several 'future' questions in relations to the CCI process. That does not mean that we need to find the answer for now and for ever. We just need to keep in mind, that 'things might not be the same in the future as they are now'.

 It seems to be wise to be aware of that. Fact is, that we can observe now how the CCI approach is on its way in our world. The number of languages used nowadays to word human emotions in the CCI way, has increased tremendously. To practice the CCI approach we have now anyhow the CCI sign language available.And how do we want to share our experiences with those whose languages we are not able to speak and understand? And in general: along what lines do we practice in the future our international CCI meetings around the world? How many participants are – for the benefit of the participants themselves – the most effective number per meeting? Personally speaking for myself, around 80 people for an international CCI exchange seems to be a perfect number! And how do we organize our world wide communication by honouring our basic assumptions of mutual respect and the challenge of the absence of any authoritarian body? And how do we communicate possible 'new approaches' when they start to develop?
These questions have now to be faced because – like in so many other ways – we, as practitioners of the CCI approach, too tend to do still what we always did before. Sometimes already 35 years ago! And of course, we should honour our roots and at the same time be aware why we do what we do. That means, to be aware of the fact that the aim of the CCI approach is still to grow, by accepting what needs to be changed! So let us do now, what our 'hands' find to be done!
