Buddhist masters say that we are in a Dark Age – but even in this difficult time all joy and possibilities are not lost. If we are to strive for a new way of life and a lasting peace, we must become warriors. We must take responsibility for the future and guide the world through its Dark Age into a more enlightened and peaceful time. To achieve this vision we need to: Understand the four thoughts that revolutionize the mind – and take personal responsibility for the future. Understand the four noble truths – there’s no need to despair. Understand and act on the four components of action – and change our attitude to life. Use the power of meditation and turn the goodness of the human race into positive energy to help transform the world. The Venerable Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche used to say that it is always possible to cheer up. And ultimately, a mind that is transformed, free and cheerful can help create peace and happiness. Let us start down the path from this very moment.
