What is RB?

Relational Being (RB) is a way of being in which we experience ourselves as distinct human beings who exist within relationships with other beings and the world around us. We do not cease to be individuals. But we are not isolated individuals either.

We live within webs of RB extending through both time and space — with other people, other living beings, places, the physical world, and those who came before us. These relationships are not simply things we possess or maintain. They are part of how we exist as human beings.

The Relational Being Project invites people to explore these webs in their own lives and to contribute what they discover.
