On the Messianic Age

I don't have the technicalities all worked out, in fact, it's kind of embarrassing to admit just how ill-prepared I am, even after all those years of reading. You gotta cut me some slack, doing Tikkun Olam singlehandedly is a tall order, especially for a slacker like me, but with God's help we'll be all right. I guess we can at least start with a reading list. 

Then I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within them, and take the stony heart out of their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh. Ezekiel 11:19
 
A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh, And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. Ezekiel 36:26-27

If you want a book that will help you here, I would suggest the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. Irony of ironies, I come to you preaching AA and drugs. But like Henry Miller said, often truth has the nature of two opposing sides making a whole, like a yin-yang. AA is of indubitably divine provenance, and it is designed for people who have made a blunder or two, and are open-minded enough to try something different. As I've said, if it can help those people it can probably help other things too. I even went back to a meeting recently, because I was getting depressed and angry about my lack of progress in reaching an audience. I said, those people are always happy, I'll go pop in and see how it goes. And I heard just the right things, and it fixed me right up. I realized, there's that Eastern idea of renouncing attachment to the results of your work. I had to let that go entirely. You can imagine, when your whole life is your work, and a dog and one friend, the work is pretty important.
