yes im talking about a non violent revolution of consciousness a consciousness that is able to understand how were all inextricably connected to each other on this earth and to the earth itself and that if we violate those fundamental principles we do so at our own peril yes we can continue to live in this delusion and the denials of reality because its painful its frightening sometimes its terrifying it s terrifying to face the truth so i ask each of you to search your hearts as to what your truth is for being a citizen of the earth promoting justice as a foundation for peace its not going to happen magically its not going to happen by relying on these political structures and institutions i think were going to have to wage peace in the most extraordinary ways whether our government wants it or not without a non violent revolution of consciousness we will not survive as a civilization or as a planet we can choose to have peace if we want to pay the price and what more glorious goal than peace for all people to build a new society a society that understands that we are not worth more and they are not worth less and that we will be willing to pay the price and take the risks to wage peace with all fellow and sister human beings
