What would you say the major problems in the world are?

Poverty? Violence? Injustice? Inequality?

These issues run rampant in this age. This age of technology. An age where we actually have enough food for people to eat, but we do not distribute it. In age where millions go starving and millions of pounds of food is thrown away.

Despite this, we are sitting on the edge of a huge opportunity.

Never before have we had the resources and technology to solve each human problem on the planet. From disease to starvation, we can solve these issues.

But there is only one thing missing…

…an inclusive consciousness.

As long as we experience ourselves as separate and only look out for ourselves, we simply won’t be able to solve the crippling issues of the world.

But if we start to experience ourselves as truly a part of this larger whole, then we will naturally start taking care of the larger whole.

The key word here is experience.

It’s not enough to think we’re in this together. It has to be our living experience. We must see that we don’t have a fully functioning set of lungs.

We share our lungs with the trees and plants around us.

We must see that the food we buy isn’t grown in supermarkets, it comes from the bounty of the earth. An earth that we are simply a piece of.

So how to bring forth this experience on a large scale?

Yoga.

Yoga doesn’t mean a set of difficult postures. Yoga means union.

You are in Yoga when everything has become oneness in your consciousness.

Experiencing this even once will dramatically shift your perspective on life and what matters. When you experience all around as a part of you, you naturally start to extend your care to that around you.

This is the inclusive consciousness which is needed to solve the problems on the planet. We are so empowered these days, that an expansion of our consciousness can have a dramatic affect on life around us.

It is time we made this happen.

June 21st is the day for it to happen. International Yoga Day.
