Opis

"We are here to understand why we make the choices we make." What does it mean to be human? How can we learn to recognize and vanquish our ego and release our compassionate spiritual essence? This book poses questions and suggests answers while examining how human beings are capable of genocide on one hand and godlike compassion on the other. Growing numbers of human beings believe we have the potential to evolve in spiritual awareness as a species and produce a more compassionate world. Only time will tell but 'time' may be running out. One thing is certain however, positive change will not happen without knowledge, effort and vision. Ignoring the horrors of 'humanity-defining' moments like war and genocide reinforces negative historical patterns of behavior that are growing in number and ferocity. We can create a new reality to make a difference but we need the tools to do so. This book utilizes traditional Buddhist philosophy and other perspectives to create a toolbox for self-realization and positive change.A Country Cop Books publication.
