SOH13 The Power of Collective Intelligence and Awareness

Violence ultimately leads to the betrayal  
of even the noblest cause.  
 
His Holiness the Dalai Lama 2000  


Let us hope that our personal freedom  
no longer constrains the individual freedom of others  
and that we are able to share a joint liberty  
in any form of democracy that is powered by  
collective intelligence and awareness  

Alex Vermeulen 2004
