AN AFTERNOON OF TALKS, DISCUSSION AND MEDITATION AS AN ACT OF GROUP SERVICE
The problem of the interplay and interaction of the nations is largely a psychological one. The soul of a nation is potent in its effect. The national thoughtform (built up over the centuries by the thinking, the goals and the ambitions of a nation) constitutes its ideal objective and is most effective in conditioning the people. ( Alice A. Bailey)
