The Gateways into Heaven on Earth are as endless and varied as the citizens of our planet. Your contribution to Heaven on Earth and what you'll do to make it come alive is up to you. By each of us doing our part, knowing that others all around the world are also doing their part, a feeling of momentum and energy begins building and building. It gives us hope. It gives us the energy, the strength and the courage to keep going.

Huston Smith, the great theologian and thinker, has a wonderful image for our Humanity. He thinks of the physical universe as a horizontal line that represents the 14 billion light years that is our known universe. Since light travels at 186,000 miles a second, this is a pretty long line. He then sees a vertical line intersecting the horizontal line. This new line represents our common Humanity, where we've been, our triumphs, our failures, our awakenings, our continual stretch and evolvement toward wholeness and enlightenment. He considers this line to be even longer that the line that measures the known universe - longer than 14 billion light years.

When I heard this for the first time I was catapulted out of worrying about the minutiae of my daily life and into an intense realization of the magnificence of this incredible human journey we are taking together.

Project Heaven on Earth is our opportunity to together create a new and wonderful story of what it means to be human and what it means to be Humanity. We are finally allowing that deep, resonant, heart-felt, part of ourselves to be expressed into reality. Heaven on Earth......The Work of Humanity.
