Imagine that it is com- prised of between one and two million organizations. It can’t be schismatic because it is already divided, splintered, and atomized. It arises and comes into being in small ways, like grass and rain. Rather than control, it seeks connection. Rather than amass power, it seeks to dismantle and disperse the concentration of authority. Knowing it is weak, it creates innovative tactics to leverage its non-existent power. It can form, gather, and dissipate quickly, without central leadership or command and control structures. It can bring down governments, companies, and leaders, not by force, but only through witnessing, informing and massing. It can provide hope, support, meaning, and direction. Its power rests in its potential, not in overt force. The potential are the links and rela- tionships that are ever present, and ever growing. What guides the movement is both mysterious and obvious.” ::: PAUL HAWKEN
