Conscious Evolution: The World At One

-- Joanna Macy, author World as Lover, World as Self, http://www.joannamacy.net/

Description: Set to an original, spellbinding soundtrack, Angela Manno's powerful imagery combined with quotations from some of the world's greatest global and ecological thinkers conveys "the Big Picture" and recaptures the sense of awe and reverence for our planet that astronauts from every country have had as a result of seeing Earth from afar. With its rhythmic and unhurried pace, this 13-minute program produces a deeply meditative and highly inspirational effect. "Conscious Evolution: The World At One" is a meditation on global unity and the potential of humanity to live in harmony with itself and with the planet Earth.
