  3.5 The Great Freedom Sutra

Last modified 06/27/2008

 We can conclude by noting that the question of human freedom has been lost to the consideration of the Axial religions, whatever their claims otherwise. The upsurge of the new age of modernity retables the potential toward freedom in man, and this constitutes the real living sutra for modernity, just as certainly as the ancient sutras of antiquity express the subtleties of human consciousness. The false dichotomy of sacred and secular blinds us to the higher potential for evolutionary advance latent in the transformation of the modern, and as such is the indication of a starting point as solid as that we find in the memory of the Axial Age and its antecedents.
