Read Excerpts from Prior Unity
The message of the book Prior Unity is that the impulse to peaceful, cooperative coexistence is humanity’s “true north.” The impulse comes from our root-intelligence as one single species, and, at the same time, reflects the inherent unity of all life.

Introduction: The Real Revolution
The ego-Culture of Separateness and The egoless Culture of Prior Unity
“It is now time for humankind-as-a-whole—everybody-all-at-once—to assume integral responsibility for the human species on Earth. This is really the first time in all of human history that humankind has even been in the position to consider this. Simultaneously, humankind is in the position of having no choice but to deal with it.”
– The World-Friend Adi Da,
from Prior Unity
The Urge To Participate
The fundamental urge of humankind-as-a-whole is to participate—not to be shut down, not to be thrown back on themselves, not to be treated merely as consumers who want this, that, and the other thing.
People want the opportunity of participation.
All over the world, the energy of participation is what should be tapped.
Instead of addressing everybody in terms of their problems, their “self”-interest, their consumer mentality, their egoity, address them as people who are patterns of energy wanting to participate.
The human world is an energy of participation.
Therefore, it needs a pattern by which people can participate.
The pattern must be provided.

The Premonition: A Pandemic Story
This book is a page-turner about how a diverse skunk-works group of people passionate about public health worked to influence public health policy in America in the last 12 years leading into the Covid pandemic.
Here’s an amusing quote:
“Note to self,” said Charity. “Don’t put the [TB] isolation motel next to a strip club.”
–Charity Dean, public-health nurse,
