It starts with the early adoptors - people at the fringes and edges of mainstream traditionalist culture. The resistance to new consciousness is resistance to new responsibility and loss of separate self. So much of traditional mindsets are based on the projection of responsibility on authority figures and the maintenance of a separate self. As so the resistance. For that reason, our invitation to the new consciousness must be strong and wide. And as we say in Open Space ... the right people always show up. Great questions.
