Are based on the premises that

• We are living in a time of complexity, ambiguity, and opportunity which is not only exciting and challenging, but critical in terms of the further evolution of human and planetary history
• We are learning that participating in the cultural trance of materialism and consumerism which has long captivated us does not lead to happiness and fulfillment
• More and more people are seeking ways to break this cultural trance and are seeking to lead their lives based on more spiritual values
• We have the resources to develop ourselves so that we can move forward with the consciousness of wholeness which will allow us to shape the 21st century from a wisdom perspective
• Making the choice to use these resources to develop ourselves and take part in evolution consciously is crucial to our survival as a species
• Each of us, by choosing or not choosing to develop ourselves further and then act from the wisdom we gain, makes a difference in shaping the 21st century
