Summary/Abstract: Are we just a consciousness of the mind that is in a body and which has the ability to feel emotions and decide on the most rational way to pursue ones goals or is there something more to being human which science looks at with suspicion? We sense we have a soul and that somehow it is connected with the destiny of the entire humanity but science has not been able to measure it or account for it so for all we know, it may just be pure speculation. This article tries to propose a 4D paradigm of Body, Emotions, Mind and Spirit instead of the current 3D paradigm of just Body, Emotions and Mind and proposes the fact that the physical manifestation of Spirit, that integrates both the body, the mind and the emotions is the individual personality type. This article is a journey inside the current of globalization and seeing how its integrative nature follows the same pattern that our individual personalities follow in our own life: an inward journey, a journey of re-integration and re-discovery of ones self, just as the world rediscovers itself through the globalization – glocalization dynamic.
