Metanoia means to ‘turn around’. And that means letting go of ‘what is’ for what is now possible.

Spirit invites humanity into the generating Power of origination, enabling us to go beyond fear and rigidity to spontaneity. Instead of being dominated by external systems, we can turn toward an internal dialogue of freedom and responsibility to overcome and overreach ‘the ordinary’ through creativity.

Much of what concerns me is so intense, and extremely complex, that only a “complete change” will be adequate. I have often said, “The whole thing is wrong,” and the problems are so insidious that reason is not adequate. Lately, I have been saying that we need a new humanity.

The change is from an ‘ego adaptive’ person to a Self-transcending person who has awakened to the originating power of the Spirit. It is only a free and entire intuitive consciousness which would be able to see and to grasp things by direct contact and penetrating vision.

This would be a real participation by the individual in the working of the universal Consciousness-Force; the individual Purusha would become the master of his own executive energy and at the same time a conscious partner, agent, instrument of the Cosmic Spirit in the working of the universal Energy: the universal Energy would work through him, but he also would work through her and the harmony of the intuitive truth would make this double working a single action. A growing conscious participation of this higher and more intimate kind must be one accompaniment of the transition from our present state of being to a state of supernature.
