At present, mankind is undergoing an evolutionary crisis in which is concealed a choice of its destiny, for a stage has been reached in which the human mind has achieved in certain directions an enormous development, while in others, it stands arrested and bewildered and can no longer find its way. The evolution of the mind working upon life has developed an organization and the use of matter, which can no longer be supported by human capacity without an “inner change”.”
These words of Sri Aurobindo are directing us to the dawn of a new era. An era of evolution! The dawn of inner change! A time that demands unity, humanity, and peace across borders! It's time to sync our individual peace with global peace. So, come on peace makers! It's time to make this world socio spiritually active on our 'Inner-book'.
By bringing a change in ourselves, we can certainly trigger a change in the entire physical world, thus laying the foundation for the making of a new and better world. The reason is simple– “Every great change starts like falling dominoes”- BJ Thornton (Director, Ford Motor Company, 2004-2007).
As per the experiment of the Domino Effect, each standing domino symbolises a small amount of potential energy. And the more dominos we line, the more potential energy gets accumulated. In 1983, Lorne Whitehead published in his journal that a single domino is competent to bring down another domino which can be 50% larger than its size.
In 2001, a physicist showed the impact of the Domino Effect. The first domino was mere two inches; the last was about 3 feet tall. The fall of dominos started with a gentle tick and that rapidly ended up with a huge slam. Imagine what would happen if this falling continued. A picture of such effect can be portrayed as shown. Thus, a small measure of potential energy can lead to a big pool of energy.
