Evolution Next XIV: An unprecedented time



        Dr. Alok Pandey


        Abstract
        We have entered a new age of human evolution, the Age of Truth. What we are witnessing increasingly
        is the action of Truth upon the world and humanity. It is slowly, but with an increasing force, chipping
        off the dark or bright envelopes into which we had hidden ourselves. The result is an initial confusion,
        a loss of what we had called ourselves. Exposed and bare, it is time for us to re-look at ourselves and
        search for the lost Truth that dwells within us.
