Words from Zo LaMantia

I believe this is a crucial time in the history of
America and the world. It is an era of profound
transformation, in which we have the opportunity
to shift from an old paradigm, which is clearly not working, to a new paradigm… if we have the awareness and the courage to face this challenge, and seize this great opportunity.

The old paradigm is the mainstream corporate, political, medical, religious and educational system of today, which is doing more harm than good, and on the verge of collapse. It is built upon a foundation of manipulation and deceit. It is a system (collectivism) in which the people of the world have allowed themselves to relinquish their independence and self-reliance, and become dependent on this system to take care of them, and run their lives.

The old paradigm was built upon the foundation of the feelings of helplessness, hate and fear, which people were conditioned to believe was a reflection of the true nature of their world. It was “us against them” and “them against us”. The traditional school system, the media, and every segment of the mainstream corporate/government system consistently reinforce this message.

The new paradigm will be a world where people reconnect with the source of their power, which is within each and every one of us. As a result, it will be a world where the people take back control of their lives, their families, their communities, their governments and their planet.

We are in a revolution, but it is a revolution of consciousness. It’s a revolution of the mind, in which people wake up to the truth of how we have been deceived and manipulated, the truth about our real power, the truth of our oneness.

“In order to rally people, governments need enemies. They want us to be afraid, to hate, so we will rally behind them. And if they do not have a real enemy, they will invent one in order to mobilize us”.
Thich Nhat Hanh

No matter what race, religion, creed, or national origin,

Remember… We Are One!
