The human of our times is mutating so rapidly that we have no historical reference, except to a blurred past. With the population explosion, accelerating chaos, violence and terrorism, inhumane systems, pollution and ignorance, we are unrecognizable even to ourselves.
And I, who live as far away as possible from the homogenization of it all, can’t escape the contagion of our sobering times.
But being alive in these times also presents a unique opportunity to meet the Grist of Challenge – to expand, even further, the dimensions of our awareness, to delve ever deeper into the universal laws of existence.
Having a Cosmic reference point brings a much-needed relief from the prisons of limited perspective fueling our world.
