Become a Full Moon

Yesterday was the Korean Thanksgiving holiday, which I spent on Jeju Island, south of Korea. At night, I gathered with my students under the big, bright moon.

Try eating some moon.
Eat the moon. Eat it ten times.

True liberation is only possible when the current era of material civilization has ended and a new spiritual civilization begins. 

Who is capable of making that happen? 
Who ...
