Ashok Gangadean Quotes
Perhaps the single most powerful event facing humanity today is a great awakening on a planetary scale that has been millennia in the making.

This awakening of global consciousness is nothing less than a shift, a maturation, from more egocentric patterns of life to a higher form of integral and dialogic patterns of life.
