lobal Focus & Origins of the

ICGS

The

origins of the current

CGS

develope

out of a specific

fifteen

year “experimental”

rocess

(1979 –

2005

)

when

the

founder and subsequently the

AUM-

IAIAS, Inc

sponsored

Ikologiks

raining

ntensives

, workshops, seminars & courses

throughout

the

USA

and

other parts

the world. The

participants that

enrolled in

these

Ikologiks

training programs

provided a unique empirical

testing ground for the

core

techniques and

pedagogic

approaches

that are now

being

incorporated

the

CGS

urriculum

structure

The

information

derived

from

these

pilot programs

are

also

serv

ing

evolutionary 'software

development'

console

that

will impact all aspects of the

CGS

global

initiative

s as they

emerge

in the

decades

ahead

The Global Question, Globalization

The founder of the

CGS

Adisa Maina Omar

(

aka

Roger M. Davis

)

has spent

over

quarter

century studying the

cultural

traditions

and socio-

political

economic

processes

inherent

present

in the

people of the Americas,

Europe, Africa

and Asia. This

unique

global

perspective and

level of

analysis was

undertaken

Adis

a Maina Omar

order

create

alternative to

the current

globalization

pattern

and how we

study the

question

globalization

the

impact it is having

throughout the modern world

Globalization

"supranational

system,

which

surfaced

in the

latter-

half

the

20th

Century

with the

creation of

numerous

global

governance

institutions

The primary

globalization

institutions

emerging from

era

were

solely economic in

basis

with

expressed

political

hegemony

being

given to

the

European, Russian

Federation

(former

USSR)

and

nited States of America

nation

states.

For

example, t

formation

the

League of

Nations,

United

Nations,

Bretton

Woods

Accords

WTO,

NAFTA,

CFR,

GATT,

Trilateral

Commission, European

Union, ASEAN,

and

other

bodies of

global

leadership

are

indicative of these patterns

globalization that the I.C.

ultimately

seeks to

transform

and

offer

alternativ

es.

The

refore, the

creation of the

Ikologiks Center for

Global

Studies

is an

genuine

attempt

to not only study and

define current globalization

patterns,

but to offer

alternatives

or to

seek

solutions to global

problems (i.e.

global warming)

through our

global

array of faculty,

students and

staff.

Finally, th

e enrolling students and applying

faculty members

should be aware that the

CGS

does

not see

"ikologiks theory"

unchallenged model for the academic program or

curriculum

offered

at our global

"online

campus"

nor does the

Iko-Meditation

Technique

serve as the only

valid

methodology of

transformational

technology imparted

for our

students to learn

. We are recruiting

faculty

that range from

evangelical

Christians, to

atheist, to

practicing Hindus and

orthodox Muslims

or Jews, to Shamans

and

those

with

traditional degrees

to those

without. The vision of the

CGS

tackling

the

immense

issues

globalization is to

create a

microcosm of the existing world within

the

ranks of our

faculty,

staff and students.

An Advocate of Transformationalism & A Sane Path of Globalization"

Adisa

Maina Omar

has

visited

or spent time

living/working with

nationals

of such

countries as

Antigua,

South

Korea,

Canada,

India,

Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Cuba,

France,

Germany,

UK,

Ireland, Ghana,

Nigeria,

Senegal,

Ivory Coast, Zimbabwe,

Egypt,

Iran, South

Africa,

Ecuador

and Mexico

over

he past

twenty-

five

years

order to

refine, examine

and build

upon

his

understanding

of the

diverse

cultural

traditions

celebrated

around the

world. In

addition, he

has

experienced

diverse

range of blue collar and

white

collar jobs

(

from

working

Prudential

Insurance

as a Manage

Pizza

Hut

& Dominoes

delivery driver

to be a waiter, HR

Manager, etc.

)

throughout his life in

order

to better

understand

the nature of

class

society.

In so doing,

Adisaji

has not followed

the path of an ascetic

or one who has

escaped into the

"forest

mountains"

to attain

"enlightenment."

Nor has

he opted to live the

lifestyle and class

privileges

afforded to the

social elite

those

reaching his level of academic and intellectual

achievement.

Instead,

his

views and

understanding are

pragmatic,

rational and at the

same

time are

representative

his over

twenty-five

years of personal

meditation

and spiritual

practices

, or being a

graduate of Cornell

University

, and having attended the Graduate School of

International

Studies at Korea University

As such, h

certainly

does not see

himself as a mystic or

'guru' yet he

embraces his

students

with the love, dedication and

sensitivity common

with

such

personages.

The ideas

and

philosophical

constructs

that are

being applied

development

of the I

draw

upon

his rich

and

diverse

background

found in
