A Cultural Resource

In the flood of electronic stimuli, in the rush to perform, it is hard to keep your head. We put ourselves through the mill, and suffer for it.

Others do likewise. Society is stuck in sterile, abstract stories that go round and round.

Wherever we work, in business or healthcare, in education or politics, in charity or IT, we see the same need as in our own lives — to think and live less mech­anically, more humanly. Perhaps it is time to pause and consider the long term.

How are we living, individually and collectively? How to explore alternatives?

Where can we look for some help on this? Which cultural resources may be useful? What human traditions could we draw on?

How about those that have built up around the figure of the Buddha? Might we find something there?

Many of us reckon so. That is how So-Wide has come about.
