Susmita Barua, a gifted Transformational Speaker and Social Entrepreneur
invites you to a compassionate thought provoking exploration of a little understood and greatly feared beast - the modern
mythical dragon called "Capitalism!" May be there is a way to deconstruct this "Tyrannosaurus Rex", once we are no longer
afraid to look at it closely. Maybe we can all be part of a multipurpose solution rather than part of an evergrowing boomeritis
of poverty, war, injustice, pollution, institutional and social-mental dysfunctions of all kinds. The evolutionary imperative
now is to see how we can collectively engage our minds in addressing this systemwide challenge by using the light of our own
awareness and enlightened thinking.

by spontaneous cocreative organic networks of socially aware and engaged citizens within increasingly interdependent local
communities and global villages" - Susmita Barua

I think you got some awesome comments Mita! If you have not spoken in front of a (college) crowd for
20 years, you are to be commended for your actions! Every new semester I have to introduce my words to 100 new students of
differing cultures and backgrounds and it is always an "iffy" proposition! They say you can own something after doing it 7
times..so keep up the good work! I am happy you shared this and hope you continue to do your work...
Namaste! Aley
