We should be looking for sources of wisdom, not just complaining about how bad things are. We should be seeking these sources of wisdom and linking them up to each other. Because every one of these springs of wisdom is drawing its wisdom from an underlying unified body of wisdom, of water, which is the wisdom of the Spirit. There’s only one wisdom. It may come to us through the spring of indigenous societies or through the spring of beautiful poems, or through science or through art or through religious ritual or through mystical teaching or through nature.
