We live at a time when there is available to humans more information and technology than ever before in recorded history. And in the onrush of all of this, most of us do not know what is a human being or what possibilities may lie open to us. We have little time for the ancient admonition to, “Know thyself.”
How do we become aware of the importance of this fundamental route to becoming more fully human? Can we access information and technology presently in existence (and expanding) to develop wisdom and understanding we can apply to make our lived experience of this life we are given more meaningful and satisfying to us? Can we access and apply existing information and technology to lessen unnecessary hardship for those with whom we interact–and possibly expand that interaction? Hammering out our words here key by key could we possibly demonstrate (as have legal counsel and public servants with statutory legislation) . . . might we be able to discover again for ourselves that the pen is mightier than the sword . . . or maybe even more powerful than weapons of a more massive destruction?
There is power in focused cooperation. Would it be possible through a stirring of the forces within that we may move toward a future evolution of all of us through personal deliberate effort toward transformation of our self?
