suffering as a
result of systemic exploitation, social
oppression, corruption, patriarchy,
war, endemic poverty, intolerance,
religious extremism, democracy deficit,
climate crises, etc., is there for
everyone to see. The crisis is not only
social and political but also
ecological, moral and spiritual: a great
tear is
slowly rending apart the delicate fabric
that holds the social and natural
order together. There is an urgent call
to suture this rift before it is too
late, before a total civilizational and
ecological collapse. </span></p>

can we think our
way out of this imbroglio? Can the
ancient sages and spiritual traditions
show
a path to happiness and wellbeing? What
utopian vision is required to help us
re-imagine new responses to old problems
of humanity, to usher an era of peace,
justice and freedom? How can the wisdom
of ages and modern political thought
engage constructively to face the
challenges of the present and of the
future?
What role can imagination play in
envisioning an ecological and spiritual
civilization? </span></p>
