Nirmalan Dhas works on the frontiers of human perception, where as one of the few existing synthetists he brings together various strands of knowledge and the content of various levels of awareness and slowly weaves them into a growing pattern that makes it possible to discern possible pathways to credible futures. He continues to synthetise an ever expanding conceptual framework that he uses effectively to articulate the perceptions he makes while also facilitating their communication across several disciplines, ideologies, cultures, systems of belief and ritual and understandings of spirituality.

In the course of this work he has become aware of two types of perception and the two types of human individuals that they generate. He borrowed the terms Dvaita (knowing the world as a collection of discrete objects) and Advaita (knowing the world as a stochastic process) from Indian Philosophy to describe these two types of perception and he claims that it is only through Advaita that such possible pathways to credible futures can be perceived while Dvaita generates desire and the consequent Growth Model of Development with its currently global civilization with its Pollution and Global Climate Change, Rapid Resource Depletion and Global Monetary Collapse that has no credibility and no future.

He maintains that it is possible to shift from one perceptual paradigm to the other or to move from the world as perceived through Dvaita (DvaitaLoka) to the world as perceived as Advaita (advaitaLoka) and he calls this movement from one to the other The New World Movement that he describes as an evolutionary dynamic.

He maintains that those who have made this journey may link up to form a global network that can function as a species-wide perceptual process and a global strategic guidance system that can guide the human species through processes of civilizational transformation and conscious evolution to a sustainable civilization that dedicates all available resources to the continuous evolution of life through and beyond human being and to its spread throughout the cosmos.

Nirmalan communicates this knowledge through speaking engagements, through seminars, through workshops, through retreats and through Bhomian Discourse or “Satsang” where the selection of words and direction of content flow are the outcome of the interaction of participants much like a stochastic process.
