A couple of quotes & links on the acknowledgment of  Inter-being. On our inherent Interdependence.

 “I am only a cell in the complex revolutionary mechanism of the peoples for peace in the new nations … united in blood to me.”

"Arise! Let us free the Mind from these compromises, these humiliating alliances, this hidden subservience! The Mind is the servant of no man. We are the Mind’s servants. We have no other master. We are created to carry and to defend its light, to rally around it all men who are lost. Our role, our duty is to maintain a fixed point, to show the pole star amidst the storm of passions in the darkness. Among these passions of pride and mutual destructions, we do not single out any one, we reject them all. We commit ourselves never to serve anything but the free Truth that has no frontiers and no limits and is without prejudice against races or castes. Of course, we do not dissociate ourselves from Humanity. We toil for it — but for all humanity. We do not recognize peoples — we acknowledge the People — unique and universal — the People who suffer, who struggle, who fall and rise again, and who always advance along the rugged road that is drenched with their sweat and their blood. We recognize the People among all men who are all equally our brothers. And so that they may become, like us, ever more conscious of this brotherhood, we raise above their blind struggles the Arch of Alliance — the free Mind that is one, manifold, eternal."

Here I'm making publicly available my chat log with Barry Kort on Facebook dating back from April, 2011 to this date.

 For now, this data is available both as a .pdf and ,doc file. Download links here (.doc) and here (.pdf) But not to worry!
 I expect to edit this log in a couple of days allowing for a permanent, neat online reading experience as well. For now this is it.

Not only did Barry Kort gave me the consent to publish our insightful and long data log but he also urged me to do so.
I kindly agreed. This is both the right and the ethical thing to do. Thanks Barry.
See you soon,
