We are in the last stages of the materialistic civilization whose ultimate goal has been the pursuit of external values. The driving forces behind our civilization have been competition and domination. In the ceaseless pursuit of better, faster, and more, we have destroyed our natural resources and found our hearts to be lonely and empty. Poverty of the heart exists in midst of material wealth. Just as the moon wanes after it is full, it is time for materialistic civilization to wane in order to make way for a new cycle of human civilization, a new cycle of life. We really have only one option before us, … a spiritual civilization.
A spiritual civilization is not a repudiation of material abundance. It is a more mature civilization that creates harmony of the whole by restoring a healthy balance between the spiritual and the material. A spiritual civilization will share the collective goal of pursuing the material as a means to spiritual development, not of pursuing the material for its own sake. A spiritual civilization will utilize material abundance for growth of the soul, and place the earth, rather than specific religions, people, or nations, at the center of its value system. It will not pursue external success, but completion in a holistic sense. And it will be a civilization that does not force people to pursue the self-limiting values of money, fame, and power by forcibly taking them from others in competition. Rather it will assist us in the pursuit spiritual completeness and perfection of our souls through harmony and reconciliation. Such will be a spiritual civilization.
