Description:

The essays in this book were written to reaffirm our innate personal power, our inherent collective wisdom, and our unquestionable capacity to create the world we want to see. Sages and mystics have noted that peace begins within each of us—in what we think, what we say, and what we do. We must understand that conflict is inevitable but war is always optional if we want our leaders to move away from the outmoded precept that might makes right. We must be conscious of our connection in the web of life with other humans and all species if we wish coexist in harmony and understanding rather than animosity and ill will.
