The ancient desire for self-knowledge and divine inspiration defines the human search for love and trust. Now, author Robert Felix shows us the way to align our search for individual, internal truths in harmony with the new global reality of the 21st Century. Felix begins by showing us how to use the power of prayer for developing the understanding and forgiveness necessary for our personal well-being. Next, he details a meditation practice you can use to help extend that love to others. Together, the Western-style prayer and Eastern meditation techniques help us find the proper balance between what is right for ourselves and what is right for the rest of our world. By understanding ourselves, Felix makes clear, we spark the energy of unconditional love, a love that knows no boundaries, a love that helps us find solutions to the concerns and goals we face. With your partners within, we realize the spiritual power of global awareness. It inspires us to see our lives as one, global citizens sharing a single home, the Planet Earth.
About the Author: About Robert C Felix As a retired stockbroker with over 40 year's experience, I have been acutely aware of the ups and downs of American and global companies. I have watched the remarkable surge of Western economies and more recently, the stunning rise of prosperity in emerging economies. Over the decades, I have also seen the rise and fall of entire technologies and industries, of currencies and derivatives, of amazing human aspirations and spectacular failures. And I have observed war and peace in human societies and the nations we create. For us to survive into the 21st century and beyond, we will have to be wise and worldly in deciding right from wrong, good from bad, love from fear, and trust from doubt. Over the past 50 years, we have seen the world create more wealth than has ever been created in the entire history of mankind. Over the next few decades we have the potential to double this wealth, and then double it again. But I am worried about the future of the children of our world. Historically, global exploitation of limited resources without global governance has been a recipe for disaster. Look at our future. The world's oil supply is set to peak in this century's second decade. And the land and water resources; both are increasingly being exploited to near their limits. The air temperature and quality needs to enable a healthy population, not risk it. The relentless ascendancy of unbridled empires is the greatest risk for our future. Over the course of history, we have seen the rise and fall of many a nation; most have come and gone, but none has yet been able to govern all of Earth's life. Hopefully, what is different this time around is the Internet. It enables nearly everyone to be a witness and a participant in our global future. Fortunately, human dignity is bigger than the governments we create. People are pretty good at getting along with their friends, families and colleagues. But it is crucial that we grow beyond our regional interests, beyond the lack of understanding for strangers, and beyond the little respect we have for cultures other than our own. What will enable this growth is the realization that for our very salvation and prosperity, we are as dependent upon others as they are dependent upon us. This is the goal of The Partners Within: global unity and citizenship for all.
