“This is our challenge at the beginning of the twenty-first century - we need to find the courage to see our own spiritual yearnings in the biggest possible context, in such a way that is going to compel us to finally transcend our self-concern. We need to find the heart to come together in such a way that will enable us to face the challenges before us. And to do this, we need a new spirituality. We need a new enlightenment.” WayNeedsFirstsHeartSelfTogetherFacesSpiritualSpiritualityChallengesCourageCenturyEnlightenmentConcernTwentiesYearning Author:Andrew Cohen
