In words of Ilchi Lee in his book “I truly give my respect and utmost praise to those who have advanced democracy to where it is now. For without their Herculean efforts, we could not have realized the material and mental advances that make possible the spiritual advance that is our next step as humanity: to create a true, spiritual democracy. What the people want, the people will get. And it is up to the people of the United States, as the cradle of democracy in the world, to lead us all to that next level of democracy by using her reach and power and status, creating a truly beautiful world. Maybe this is the purpose for which the United States was born.
The Earth may look large, but it has truly become a small town through advances in communications and transportation.
That’s why we call it an Earth Village. If we gather our strengths together, can we not positively influence this little village? What are the obstacles that face us? Not enough food? No. Environmental problems? Since we human beings are the cause of the environmental problems that we face today, we can also be the solution. We just need a shift in our thinking. We just need to move away from the paradigm of competition and domination. Then this world will not end. In fact, the world will prosper and return to its original place as the warm cradle of self-discovery and the advancement of human spirituality. And such a world is true democracy.”
