The New Religion of the 21st Century
On the surface of the world right now there is war and violence and things seem dark
But calmly and quietly, at the same time, something else is happening underground
An inner revolution is taking place and certain individuals are being called to a higher light
It’s a silent revolution
From the inside out
From the ground up
It’s time for me to reveal myself
I am an embedded agent of an secret, undercover, clandestine, global operation
A spiritual conspiracy
We have sleeper cells in every nation on the planet
You won’t see us on the T.V.
You won’t read about us in the newspaper
You won’t hear about us on the radio
We don’t seek any glory
We don’t wear any uniform
We come in all shapes and sizes, colors and styles
Most of us work anonymously
We are quietly working behind the scenes in every country and culture of the world
Cities big and small, mountains and valleys, in farms and villages, tribes and remote islands
You could pass by one of us on the street and not even notice
We go undercover
We remain behind the scenes
It’s of no concern to us who takes the final credit
But simply that the work gets done
Occasionally we spot each other in the street
We give a quiet nod and continue on our way so no one will notice
During the day many of us pretend we have normal jobs
But behind the false storefront at night is where the real work takes a place
Some call us the ‘Conscious Army’
We are slowly creating a new world with the power of our minds and hearts
We follow, with passion and joy
Our orders from the Central Command
The Spiritual Intelligence Agency
Love is the new religion of the 21st century
We are dropping soft, secret love bombs when no ones is looking
Poems, hugs, music, smiles, movies, meditation and prayer, dance, books, social activism, Web sites, blogs, random acts of kindness.
We each express ourselves in our own unique ways with our own unique gifts and talents
‘Be the change you want to see in the world’
That is the motto that fills our hearts
We know it’s the only way real transformation takes place
We know that quietly and humbly we have the power of all the oceans combined
‘The wave may break in failure, but the tide is sure to win’
You don’t have to be a highly educated person
Or have any exceptional knowledge to understand it
We are now recruiting
Perhaps you will join us
Or already have
All are welcome
The door is open
