People are vulnerable. Security and control are illusions. We should not be hasty to identify with a new paradigm, worldview, or philosophy. If we identify closely with any school of thought or profession we will have to embrace their views and follow their rules. Strive instead to identify with life itself and endeavor to understand life's natural creative process and to live life accordingly always open to new insights.
Transformation requires courage, service, sacrifice, and intellectual vigor.
We cannot look to traditional sources for leadership. There is nobody here to act but us. We are the messiah. The job of transforming ourselves and saving the world is down to us. It may be later than we think.
