Selection - Evolving with the Universe

Preface
Page: 1/1

Why is it that humanity has not yet made the transition from a materialistic society to one based on principles of harmony, sharing, and respect? I believe it is because the majority of people have been living in ignorance—ignorance of who we are and why we are living on Earth. We are constantly seeking knowledge and information, but we seldom turn our gaze to what is most fundamental. And so, although solutions to the world's problems lie within our reach, we cannot see them because we are preoccupied with secondary issues, and cling stubbornly to old thought-habits, fixed ideas, and blind beliefs.

Each human being is constantly receiving an abundant supply of creative energy, flowing to us from our universal source. We assign forms and shapes to this energy using the decisive power of consciousness. By means of our words, thoughts, and emotions, we determine our own future and the future of our family, our nation, and the planet Earth. Indeed, from moment to moment, each of us is wielding an influence on the vast universe.

Because we have been in ignorance of this, we human beings have been living a life of dependence, never believing in ourselves, always trusting in what others said or did. And in handing over our inherent authority to others, we have been neglecting our inborn responsibilities as citizens of Earth.

At present, the Earth is in deep danger of losing its existence. If the planet is to survive, each of us must free ourselves from our past thought-habits and make a fresh start. We must seek a totally new awareness—a rebirth in consciousness. Only when each individual has done this will the Earth be able to move forward on its evolutionary path.

In this book I would like to offer you some of my thoughts on key questions such as What is the self? What is consciousness? and What is the relationship between ourselves, others, and the universe? It is my sincere hope that in reflecting upon these questions, each person may live with confidence along his or her own chosen path, and know the incomparable joy of evolving with the universe.

May Peace Prevail on Earth
