How the bureaucratic corporate capitalistic system the world is enmeshed in is stifling our creativity and innovation, which is preventing us from coming up with viable solutions to our most pressing problems, e.g. world hunger, the environment, water supply, housing, the debt crisis, etc. In other words, the main reason why these solutions evade us is simply because there is no profit in it. Eventually, saner heads will prevail and we will dismantle the existing bureaucratic structures and move toward a more egalitarian distribution of wealth and power.
Nagas are semi-divine, semi-human spirits in Indian and Southeast Asian mythology. Notes from a traveler: "He did not think of himself as a tourist; he was a traveler. The difference was partly one of time, he would explain. Whereas the tourist generally hurries back home at the end of a few weeks or months, the traveler, belonging no more to one place than the next, moves slowly, over periods of years, from one part of the earth to another. " — Paul Bowles (The Sheltering Sky)
