We do live in incredibly prosperous and safe times. Most of our physical desires can be satisfied with a trip to the mall or by surfing the internet. In that place, there is only love. This love goes beyond the needs of the ego and recognizes that when another suffers, we share that suffering. Millions of people are waking up to the realization that the problems of their brothers and sisters are not being handled, or even recognized.
Countless millions suffer from malnutrition, poverty, and disease.
Countless others are politically oppressed, their basic right of free speech threatened with lawsuits, imprisonment, torture, or death. Mother Earth herself suffers at the hands of industrialists and technologists that ruthlessly exploit her for next quarters' profits. I encourage you to open your hearts and minds and look for solutions. Reflect on the profound link between spirituality and politics. I encourage you to become aware of a new political party, The Natural Law Party.
