Britain's Benjamin Creme is one of today's most powerful voices challenging the millennial 'prophets of doom' with his compelling and detailed vision of the future - what he calls a brilliant new civilization in the making. This sweeping transformation is now possible, Creme writes, because a group of fully enlightened teachers known as the Masters of Wisdom are returning to public roles in the world and offering their counsel. At their head is Maitreya, the World Teacher for this Age. In this volume Creme covers topics both profound and practical, ranging from mankind's origin to the principle of sharing as the first step toward global peace; from meditation and service to the technology of light; from reincarnation and karma to a pollution-free environment. A section on miracles explains the source and purpose of weeping Madonnas, crosses of light, healing waters, 'milk-drinking' statues, crop circles and more.
