I Think Civilization Is Going To Get

We Have All Been Brought Up With An Ethical System Of 2,000 Years Ago, An Industrial-managerial System Of 200-300 Years Ago, A Statecraft System Of 200 Years Ago, And So On. None Of This Is Working Very Well For The Requirements Of A Time As Complex And Variegated As Our Own. So We Stand Shuttering At The Threshold, With No Clear Map.

Just As You Would Not Neglect Seeds That You Planted With Hope That They Will Bear Vegetables And Fruits And Flowers, So Must You Attend To Nourish The Garden Of Your Becoming.

Vulnerable Is A Catch-all Word Like "love" And "schizophrenia."

I Firmly Believe That All Human Beings Have Access To Extraordinary Energies And Powers. Judging From Accounts Of Mystical Experience, Heightened Creativity, Or Exceptional Performance By Athletes And Artists, We Harbor A Greater Life Than We Know.

In A World Such As Ours, Where We Have To Cross The Great Divide Of Otherness Or We Will Not Survive, Love Is Perhaps The Most Critical Aspect That Is There In Our Humanity, To Both Activate And To Practice.
