The notion that all these fragments separately existent is evidently an
illusion and this illusion cannot do other than lead to endless
conflict and confusion. Indeed, the attempt to live according to the
notion that the fragments are really separate is, in essence, what has
led to the growing series of extremely urgent crises that is
confronting us today. Thus, as is now well known, this way of life has
brought about pollution, destruction of the balance of nature,
over-population, world-wide economic and political disorder and the
creation of an overall environment that is neither physically nor
mentally healthy for most of the people who live in it. Individually
there has developed a widespread feeling of helplessness and despair,
in the face of what seems to be an overwhelming mass of disparate
social forces, going beyond the control and even the comprehension of
the human beings who are caught up in it.
