THE CULTURE OF ‘ONENESS IN DIVERSITY’: A MANIFESTO*
Journal Title: Journal of Globalization Studies - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
Human civilization on this planet is approaching a critical threshold. This ‘bifurcation’ in the evolutionary trajectory of civilization presents not only danger; it is also a unique opportunity. It is the opportunity to create a sustainable and peaceful co-civilization. The key to making effective use of this window in time is the rise of a new and more appropriate culture: a planetary culture of oneness in diversity.
