Amongst other things, mega-paradigm changes are characterized by the universality of their positive effect on both inviduals and their systems/bodies of thought.
The first mega-paradigm change was when humanity became self aware enough to realize the reality and importance of ethics. That is what the Adam and Eve story in Genesis refers to when they ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. In other words we emerged from being a mere animal with survival being our only ethic and had to then deal with the duality of good or evil by doing what we do not nearly do enough of in modern times, self actualizing graciousness as in love in action.
Self actualization is largely a repetitive process, and that is why the new monetary and economic paradigm of strategic Gifting is the next mega-paradigm change because it gives everyone the daily opportunity to self actualize gratitude for a gift of price at retail sale and of a debt jubilee at the point of loan signing.
Imagine an economy based on grace as in gifting.
