Scoring Big with Consciousness Writing
Your March issue contained two fantastic articles on the evolution of awareness that I found brave in their context and execution. Andrew Cohen’s take on non-duality and the need to accept and embrace the responsibility of one’s life (spirit) always bears repeating and reviewing (“Divine Intervention”). Also Daniel Pinchbeck’s “From Ego to We Go” stating that consciousness needs to be self-willed and self-directed is clearly to me the only pragmatic use of our energy. Clearly most of us are self-guiding, as teachers on an evolved scale are such a rare find. Where else can we go from here? Psychic awareness is an obvious evolutionary step that mankind must take. As a student of the late Carlos Castaneda, I understand that the perceptions and discipline required to focus one’s energy on the intent one is manifesting is a constant struggle. Thanks for reminding the world around us of the process with such great writings.

Eco Elite at Whose Expense?
How can you seriously dress your model in a $1,338 eco-friendly outfit on page 64 while informing your readers on page 32 that one fifth of the world’s population lives on less than one dollar a day?
It’s time to realize that genuinely compassionate fashion means making creative use of used clothing. Folks who spend a fortune on style while touting environmental or spiritual causes are hypocritical, not to mention greedy.
Your “green fashion” could have been an opportunity to address this common gap between actions and ideals, while offering a vision of true eco-fabulousness.

Correction
In the feature story “Delicious Peace” (February, 2007), the sentence, “Accounting for over $80 billion a year, coffee is the most valuable trading commodity in the world after oil,” was added in the final edit after finding multiple citations, including in a review of the film Black Gold. The statistic, it turns out, is outdated. The article’s author Greg Dicum reports that although he too once used that same number, it is currently copper, not coffee, that is the traded commodity second in value to oil. Coffee has not held the second spot in eight years.
