Nations consist of individuals. It is for every individual to bring in a different quality - the quality of awakened consciousness - into their lives.

The planet will not survive another hundred years of the same state of consciousness that produced the external effects of recent history.

The One Life, the one consciousness that pervades the entire universe and takes temporary form to experience itself as a stone or blade of grass, as an animal, a person, a star or a galaxy. Can you sense deep within that you already know that? Can you sense that you already are That?
