I can barely get my kids out to school and pay the bills…I can barely save myself.


Admittedly the world’s problems seem daunting, impossible even. The common thought is, if the government can't solve these problems, how can an individual? And you would be right; an individual cannot save the world. But individuals, all acting for the best interests of themselves, their family, community, and the planet can make a real, dramatic, and relatively instantaneous difference.

In the beginning was the Vedas - preaching non-violence, spirituality, compassion, and social equality. These scriptures were read by, and thus inspired the transcendentalist poets of 19th century New England, like Thoreau and Emerson. In turn, Thoreau's writings on non-violent civil disobedience and self-sufficiency were read by and served as the foundation for Gandhi's non-violence movement that freed India from the British Empire's rule.
