To help usher in the Fifth World with an alternative world view to that of the present day status quo. Encourage a framework of mutual support amongst all people and cultures with recognition of our similarities while celebrating our differences. To eliminate suffering due to prejudice, ignorance, and avarice through symbiotic relationships ~ helping our neighbors and those less fortunate through education, compassion and equanimity. To ensure a broad view toward the future, where bottom-line profits do not dictate the decision-making process or policies. The natural environment, encompassing the air, the waters, the earth and sky and all the creatures dwelling in-between, must be treated with care and reverence to ensure a viable future for many generations to come.
