Find the ways in which you can flow your energy into increasing worldwide awareness that the
nuclear bomb mentality must be eliminated.
The strength of our species lies not in sharp fangs or piercing claws.
It lies in our ability to use our minds to cooperate with each other as we play the games of life.
The same powerful minds that created nuclear bombs and intercontinental missiles can also learn
how to create human unity and cooperativeness.
We can save the world from people-made disaster — when we set the goal high and add our
determination and our persistence.
Appoint yourself as a roving Ambassador of the State of Loving and Caring.
Will you accept your share of the responsibility for creating the Hundredth Monkey energy that will
change the consciousness of the entire planet?
We can tilt the scales to eliminate the awesome threat of nuclear catastrophe and environmental
ruin.
Be informed, hopeful and energetic.
Be vigilant with your thoughts of peace and love.
Sense your power to lift the mood of despair.
Let your enthusiasm seep in and penetrate the collective consciousness!
Meet with people, talk with people, share with people.
Find and support organizations that channel our energy into survival.
Write to your senators and representatives and other politicians.
Let them know what you want them to do.*
(*John Kenneth Galbraith of Harvard University, at the October 31, 1981 symposium of the
Physicians for Social Responsibility, told the 2,700 participants, "Nothing is more needed in
Washington than a rebuke to those who are not pressing actively and energetically for arms
control." You can get the voting records of congressmen on specific issues by writing the U.S.
Senate, Capitol Building, Washington, D.C. 20510 and the U.S. House of Representatives,
Capitol Building, Washington, D.C. 20515.)
Most of the things you are now doing in your life will become meaningless or nonexistent if we are
hit by nuclear catastrophe!
Take a new look at your priorities . . . .
This does not necessarily mean leaving your work or your present lifestyle.
