The Power of Collective Wisdom and the trap of collective folly is a timely and indispensible sourcebook that teaches us to recognize the ingredients and the skills that can bring collective wisdom to the forefront of human endeavor. The book effectively instructs that just as intentional and disciplined use of these ingredients gives rise to creative actions that serve the wholeness of life, ignoring them reinforces the folly of separation and sectarianism. Whether these ingredients and skills are applied within a circle of friends, family, community groups, the workplace, spiritual organizations, or government, this unique sourcebook shows that we ourselves are responsible for committing to collective wisdom and caring, in order to harness our human potential to heal the earth and benefit all of humanity.
