Foreword

We are sitting at the edge of a global thought renaissance having reached the peaks of technological sophistication, humanity is now leaning toward unleashing the untapped potential of spiritual and psychic powers. The global COVID-19 pandemic has acted as a catalyst to help humanity take an inward journey and explore the unlimited powers of the human mind and soul. During the lockdown, we couldnt go out but we could go within; we may not have been able to do the outer work but we got an opportunity to do the inner work of excavating our prejudices, building bridges to connect to our inner selves and erecting skyscrapers of virtues in life. Millions of people all over the world listened to sundry wisdom podcasts, pored over spiritual books of ancient masters or simply practiced some sort of meditation.
