The world’s problems are, by and large, human problems—the
unavoidable consequence of egoic sleepwalking. If we care to look, all the
signs are present to suggest that we are not only sleepwalking, but at times
borderline insane as well. In a manner of speaking, we have lost (or at the
very least forgotten) our souls, and we try very, very hard not to notice,
because we don’t want to see how asleep we are, how desolate our condition
really is. So we blindly carry on, driven by forces we do not recognize or
understand, or even acknowledge.
We are no doubt at a very critical point in time. Our world
hangs in the balance, and a precarious balance it is. Awakening to Reality is
no longer a possibility; it is an imperative. We have sailed the ship of
delusion about as far as she can carry us. We have run her ashore and now find
ourselves shipwrecked on an increasingly desolate land. Our options have
imploded. “Wake up or perish” is the spiritual call of our times. Did we ever
need more motivation than this?
And yet all is eternally well, and more well than can be imagined.
