Loved hearing you here. There was a point towards the end of the discussion, where I sensed that you were aiming at a selfless universal spiritual interest in the other... And that this may be different from tolerance of small communities towards each other. How do you cultivate that which is beyond egoism? In going back to small communities with people you identify with, or in learning not to identify oneself at all (or one could also say identify only with the universal spirit of humanity), which, to me, is a definite force in our age?
It does make sense to me that part of moving forward towards solutions may indeed involve living in small communities with more contact to nature. But that does not contradict the previous point regarding the antidote to egoism.
Looking forward to giving it a listen Seth!
