Most will agree that humanity is a mess. Darwinian evolution says that all species are doomed to compete among themselves for the right to contribute to the gene pool. Human beings like to think they are superior to animals but clearly; we are no different from animals in this respect. The evidence is all around us. Every generation finds reasons to launch atrocities and wars. For these reasons, the idea that we can coexist peacefully seems for many, like an idealistic, overly optimistic dream, rather than anything founded in reality. This book explores the proposal that humanity may be ready for a crucial shift in this paradigm, by offering ideas and tools that have been applied on an individual basis to produce inner peace in some Buddhist cultures for centuries. This is a critical conversation that must take place if we desire to escape the chains of past collective behavior patterns that seem to be propelling us toward the extinction of our species. The author explores this challenging topic along with two fellow deep thinkers; Dexter Amed, Ph. D., a professor of psychology with an academic career spanning decades, and Lama Lakshey Zangpo Rinpoche, a highly respected Tibetan Buddhist teacher who traveled to America from Tibet in 2007 to contribute to the spread of Buddhism in the West.
