Interspirituality. Building on advances from Brother Wayne’s life in global and interreligious dialogue- the awakening of the global heartmind the authors focus our attention on the most profound evolutionary moment facing humanity today our individual and collective crossing into the dilated global space of Interspirituality. In this respect the supreme activism of our time is to be in touch with this lead event in our human journey, to awaken our hearts to our primal unifying source, to our deep interconnectivity, to the challenges of entering a higher form of shared nonviolent culture through the literacy of global dialogue in which our entire human family may flourish together sharing our sacred earth. This book deserves to be widely read on a global scale as we discover, enter and co-create our new shared story of our human evolutionary journey.
