Publisher's summary

We are facing a global crisis involving multiple problems, any one of which could drive humanity to ruin. This presents an urgent need and opportunity to create fundamental, long-term changes promising a sustainable future. Like it or not, this situation puts each of us living on Earth in a very special place in the history of humanity and our planet.

This special position demands our reflection, wisdom, courage, and responsibility on a different level from that of previous generations. For pandemics, climate crises, and other such problems threaten all our lives, not only those of certain individuals or groups. It is also because we cannot solve these problems while putting the interests of any individual, group, or nation first.

The key to solving the problems and challenges we face is coexistence. Coexistence is not about just recognizing each other's equal right to exist in this world; it is acting on the understanding that all life on Earth is interconnected. Coexistence is not one of many but the only way we can thrive together in the long run. More than any new technology or infrastructure, we most desperately need this understanding and attitude to achieve a sustainable planet.

The conscience, empathy, and ability to reflect that we need to coexist harmoniously with one another are a natural part of ourselves. Finding this part hidden within us and learning how to use it is a new art we should pursue and develop.

In this book, Ilchi Lee in collaboration with Steve Kim describes the core concepts and principles of this art, as well as methods for making use of them. He also proposes plans for moving beyond the personal level to applying such ideas for social, cultural, and institutional change.

Much needed call to action and how to start

This book helped me realize how serious specific planet issues are and how I can connect that to my daily life. I want my grand-daughter to know that her granny is doing everything she can to create a better world for her.

The book humanity needs right now!

I love how clear and simple the notion of coexistence. We all have great power to choose to live together and thrive or struggle as we self destruct.
The insights and potential solutions provide value and hope. I feel more hope for the earth and humanity!
