As we begin the new year, I want to remind the world that only YOU can prevent World War III. I say this because most of the world is fast asleep when it comes to issues like climate change, poverty, homelessness, inequality, racism and discrimination of all kinds. The US isn’t the only place were these things are happening. They all represent the our inability to see how we are all interconnected and live on a single planet with limited resources.
Remember what Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh says,
We are here to awaken from our illusion of separateness.
Another great master whom I really admire had this to say:
The coming Third World War can be prevented only if we can awaken enough people so that they become infectious and go on awakening other people in a chain. And it has to be done so fast, because there is not much time. Otherwise the sleepy people are going to destroy this earth and this life. The politicians are asleep.
So, if you want to help prevent World War III and receive a copy of my new book, Mindfulness Breaks: Your Path to Awakening, either tell me via email who said the above quote or write to your senators and congress persons to help them awaken.
