We humans have made enormous progress in our technological mastery, but we fall far short in mastery of ourselves and the potential of our human consciousness. Failing to identify the true sources of our happiness and well-being, we worship at the altar of money to the neglect of the altar of life. Failing to distinguish between money and real wealth, we embrace illusion as reality, and enslavement to the institutions of Wall Street as liberty... We are privileged to live at the most exciting moment of creative opportunity in the whole of human experience. Now is the hour. We have the power to turn this world around for the sake of ourselves and our children. We are the ones we have been waiting for.
