The Mind Force Manifesto

Pontignano Charterhouse, September 2008

Matter, mind, brain, body and society emerge from the same stream in the complexity of nature: we call this energy ‘Mind Force’. Connections of genes and molecules, neurons and hormones, thinking and language, people and organizations form a continuous flow of synchronized interactions.

Interactions between networks across many scales, from molecular, to biological, to cognitive and social sustain its scaling and cascading. Mind Force is a hyper network of networks. We can recognize in this hyper network the landscapes and fields of Mind Force.

The empowerment of individuals by Mind Force comes from integrating multiple perspectives and complementary disciplines. Mind Force Society is a cultural and scientific institution that studies complex systems in all their manifestations — from social and cultural to economic, physical-mathematical, and biomedical sciences.

Interest is dedicated to the internal functioning of the mind/body system and its network of interrelations with the environment. This bio-psycho-social interdependence — the mutual dependence of all life processes — constitutes the nature of all ecological relationships.

The Mind Force Society is committed to interdisciplinary study, research, and intervention on complex systems. It comprises academics, researchers, scholars, and stakeholders engaged in complexity sciences at national and international levels. Its scientific research division is called the Institute for Complexity Studies.


The Mind Force Society was founded at the Pontignano Charterhouse, Siena, in September 2008.
