Even though the Tao te Ching asks if we think we can do a better job weaving the time and space for the universe, I couldn't help but wonder aloud to my teacher if we could affect just a little corner f it, the place we live. A new heaven and earth, sung into existence from a new song, as has been prophesied.
"Well, how would YOU do it?" I was asked.
"I would want mine to have a spirit of community, equality, and value individual eccentricities. I would link the health of the planet to the people's hearts, such that it would need ahimsa agape to function to the fullest!" I said, satisfied with my idea.
"What if I told you that it has already been done so?"
Sigh.
Now we may begin.
