The privileged who live in an affluent society become complacent with conditions as they are, while the rest who want immediate change to improve their conditions do so because the media shows them on a daily basis the contrast between the two lifestyles. To believe in human unity one must also believe in love as a force in the world. A force that is as important as power. For if we do not know love, we do not know what it is to be human. We are beginning to understand that human unity is no longer an idealistic concept but a necessary condition for survival on this planet.
Human unity is only viable if all can participate in it to their advantage.
The children of the world live globally and have the right to share equally in a world of the future and we have the wealth and technology to make this globally possible. These children are our future. And we adults hold this world in trust for them and must live up to the responsibility for the guardianship of this trust. Time and soul and world are given us for our field, vision and hope and creative imagination stand for our prompters, will and thought and labour are our all-effective instruments. Sri Aurobindo, The Supramental Manifestation, vol.
