Evolution of Consciousness

An important scientific innovation rarely makes its way by gradually winning over and converting its opponents: it rarely happens that Saul becomes Paul. What does happen is that its opponents gradually die out, and that the growing generation is familiarized with the ideas from the beginning.  Max Planck

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, concerned citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever does. Margaret Mead

I hope that mankind, having (incredibly!) made it from animal unconsciousness to human self-consciousness, will go on (incredibly!) to make it from the latter to true Self-consciousness. (Not that everyone will be a Seer, or even most people, but that Seership will become the accepted norm. So that it's recognized that one who lives and dies without seeing who's doing that, will be regarded as a case of arrested development. Everyone who in-sees contributes -- immeasurably -- to such a future.  Douglas Harding
