"Spirit of learning can be seen as a seat, which
has, through indirect means and cross-fertilisation helped nourish
thinking and commitment to the process of personal transformation amongst
a growing spectrum of lifelong learners and teachers. In a broad sense, it
is concerned with the recreation of new ways of seeing, being and behaving
in the world, so that we can each contribute positively and consciously to
creating a better and sustainable future. Consequently, education and
educators must become more global and future oriented, and emphasise
humanity's deep spiritual interdependence. I believe those educators and
leaders who are awake have the task of leading the way in this kind of
thinking and transformation."
