A central, spiritual tenet of Project Mind for which we have been unable to find precedent is that total material abundance (implying the mastery of matter and the elucidation of all of nature's secrets) is the sole and necessary condition for universal spiritual awakening, redemption, transformation and the popular newage aspirations known as "paradigm shift" and "phase change." History has shown that all other modalities of influence are too feeble and/or particularistic to effect a universal awakening to truth. The mastery of matter implies unlimited abundance and universal well-being. It will abolish illness and all but eliminate aging and death. The total devaluation of material possessions will spell an end to avarice, greed and materialism since, by definition, one cannot remain attached to that which has become worthless. It will be spiritually and psychologically impossible for us to remain attached to possessions or be materialistic. Human desire, once detached from the thin, physical crust of reality will, by default, discover and attach itself to what remains - the metaphysical - reality itself. This is the condition, sine qua non, for messianic revelation and the real beginning of universal, spiritual evolution. In a world where few agree on very much, universal harmony can emerge only with the blanket removal of the veil of ignorance and illusion that substantially encumbers the spirits of all men, regardless of their state of development. We will all awaken, more or less simultaneously, to a direct awareness of an infinite (metaphysical) existence and, by corollary, to our own spiritual poverty. So, paradoxical as it may seem, only total material abundance has the power to bring about universal, spiritual awakening. Project Mind aims to generate abundance through a higher-order mind process called "Accelerated Thought."
