Inclusive Envisioning Exercise #1: "Gaia" Awakening

This composite photograph of the Earth at night was compiled by NASA. It shows the view of the elecric light glowing around the world on a cloudless night.

Imagine a parallel image of light emerging from people all around the world as they awaken to the idea that all life on Earth is a single family, and begin to identify with that collective vision of humanity more than any particular one.

(It is very likely that the pattern of lights of "topian" or "Gaia" awareness will be much different from the one shown here, since it reflects those areas of the world that have electric lighting, not inner illumination.)
