There can be no better proving of the global nature of the awakening in progress. Awakening is an excellent term for the events now underway. They tap into the universal value system which all people share.

Our freedom is to say yes or no to non-idolatry, to democracy, to helpfulness and to tolerance. These are the foundations of a realized human value system.
