"The most vital issue of the age is whether the future progress of humanity is to be governed by the modern economic and materialistic mind of the West or by a nobler pragmatism guided, uplifted and enlightened by spiritual culture and knowledge...

We must return and seek the sources of life and strength within ourselves. It is the spiritual revolution we foresee and the material is only its shadow and reflex. The world is in continuous evolution and there is a need to bring down a higher truth with each age.

The present evolutionary crisis comes from a disparity between the limited faculties of Man - mental, ethical and spiritual - and the technical and economic means at his disposal. 

Without an inner change, Man can no longer cope with the gigantic development of outer life. If humanity is to survive, a radical transformation of human nature is indispensable. Only spiritual realization and experience can achieve the change of the mental being into a spiritual being."
