Today we are experiencing an increase in polarization and binary thinking. This black and white view of the world offers an illusion of safety through othering, but in effect creates fragmentation and violence. The pandemic crisis is putting our capacity to unite and love one another to the test. We need to step into vulnerability and into radical intimacy with the other, in order to close the divide and evolve into a more equitable and life-affirming existence. We need to find our way back to our heart and practice conscious relationships.
