Today we face an unprecedented human emergency. We are at the crossroads of a new evolutionary moment in the history of humanity, we have the power to construct and nurture or to destroy and be callous, the technology to heal and support our fellow beings, or to live a life of wastefulness and unbridled vanity.

The intensity of this ethical dilemma, although ever present in our human condition, has now acquired life or death consequences for millions, as we have unraveled our technology and multiplied the impact of the choice between releasing the vast energy we now manage through technology, to heal or to maim. Never before has the choice been so terrible, nor had so many shared knowledge, about the unified nature of our being, the consequences of our indifference, and the extent of our selfishness.

As we increase our waste, in our enclosed bubbles of comfort, millions die in abject need of food and health care. As we bask in the exhilarating accelerations of our modernity, awed by our gadgets, we lose the capacity of feeling and of being awed by the magic and beauty of our universe and our consciousness.

Instead of loving more, even as we know more about our life continuum, we escape in the fantasy of the images of our own creation, inventing superficial stereotypes and role models to follow. Instead of using our science and know how to bring water, food, shelter to billions in need, we splurge in bigger cars, acquire and waste more, and build bigger bombs to shy away those that have nothing, who grow in numbers and in despair.
The financial and economic crises that are at present befalling the world are not fixable within the same elements of consciousness that created them.

However, today in the world, there is an upwelling of hope, a movement of people that want to connect their humanity, to share their hope, as they become aware, that the consciousness evolved through our human history, has now arrived at a pivotal point; that we now have in place the instruments for true connectivity.
Modern science, has confirmed the wisdom of seers: we are all one family, we share a common origin and destiny, and we are all interconnected. We must come together as in a family reunion to recognize that we have a crisis at hand, make a commitment to expand our network of waking friends, and create a human network amongst those who want to celebrate and nurture life rather than destroy it. The strength of this network needs to penetrate the images, sounds and symbols that today anesthetize our hearts.

We must develop strategies to enhance people to people connectivity, so we can create a human force that projects in mainstream media, the nobler sentiments that live within us in abundance, but which are not been given enough air time. We must replace the torrent of visual and sound impressions that resonate behaviors and attitudes which are not consonant with equity, selflessness, compassion, and the true joy of being. We must give equal time to compassion, joy and serenity within our hype and excitable media envelope.
Human beings must come together in support of life and light. Right now, each person and group itrying to change the world is going their own way. The elders of so many traditions have said it repeatedly; the only hope is “if the people of the light can come together and unite”.

Today the movement for change continues to be fragmented, and even those who seek to establish coalitions and alliances, and coordinate forces for change, continue along an organizational road, where boundaries are laid out and differential branding is projected. Each group, think it is he most important, that its own understandings and tenets , are key. So there is competition, diffusion, and no single focus amongst the forces of light.

We each want to save the world in our way. Yet, we will not be able to push the cart out of the mud, until we all push and heave in the same direction, and at the same time, even if from different grasps.

We need to come together to facilitate the birth of a new human society . One that integrates consciousness, culture and nature, through the interweavig of arts, ethics and science. One that gives room to personal values, collective wisdom and technical know-how. The ideological camps, the nation states, the traditional political parties, the sectarian exclusive religions, will have to give way to a new one family of humanity concept, expressed in political, religious and ideological symbols that reflect the unified field of being and consciousness as revealed by modern science and intuition. This new world centric view will replace ethnocentrism in all of its aspects and establish a true integral vision for humankind.
