"Any real learning situation is like a revolution. It requires you to be more present, to pay attention, to wake up from your dreaming state, to overcome that which has been ruling your life previously—the false rulers of belief, ideology, obsession, fear and fantasy."[1]'
The revolution within
"To respond to a New Message from God and to respond to the greater purpose that has sent you into the world requires a kind of revolution within yourself, where your former dictators are overthrown and replaced by wise counselors." [2]
"To begin to respond to your deeper nature, to the greater Mind within you, begins a revolution—a revolution where the existing and former powers are overthrown, gradually, and even through periods of struggle, [by] something far more potent and real and meaningful."[1]'
"This represents a revolution within yourself—a real transformation, an entirely different position from which to see life and to see yourself. And it is entirely honest. It is entirely authentic. There is no emotional dishonesty here. There is no self-deception here. There is no glossing over the truth here with fanciful ideas. It is entirely sound. It is entirely real." [3]
Political revolution
"As humanity grows and the world’s resources are expended and diminished, more and more people will be pressed to meet the basic requirements of life. This will tip the scale, you see. Their long aggravation or political oppression, their long disenfranchisement of their rights will now be driven to extreme revolution for which people are willing to die and to sacrifice themselves—ordinary people, average people, people in many, many places. The revolutions that are happening in many countries, the struggle for freedom and justice and rule by law—all of these things now will be propelled forward by the impacts of the Great Waves of change."[1]
