"A topic at the cutting edge of the New Age is the distinction between being asleep and being awake. Of course, this asleep has nothing to do with bedtime, but is the 'normal' state of waking consciousness entertained by almost everyone. Being asleep, we are caught in something smaller than the vastness that is the ground of being from which we emanate – we are not material creatures having spiritual experiences, but visa versa. A reversal of the figure-ground, where we see that awareness is where we come from and not what we are going toward, is what happens when we wake up. The new story of what we are to do as awakened beings, cohabitating this planet, hasn't been written yet. May these email exchanges, and those to come, help us tell our new tale."
