During my teenage years, I imagined I'd end up going to India to become a yogi; study with the last living saints in a cave; give up all my worldly possessions; learn to levitate. And there's still part of me that can see myself "disappearing" for some years at an ashram somewhere.”

We feel that the road to technology.... has led modern society to a damaged and seared earth.

The earth is not scorched on this trail. The grass is still growing there.”
