This book posits that a "true democracy" emerges when people are led by enlightened individuals who understand and implement the appropriate principles derived from their connection to understanding the universe and beyond. The author contrasts such a "true democracy" with a "false democracy" in which the less enlightened masses ("the rabble") rule. The author suggests that such "false democracies," often dominated by religious and political demagogues, are doomed to failure and oppression. Drawing on historical and philosophical examples, the author argues that only when the enlightened lead the people can there be "harmony and peace, and the resultant happiness for which life was given."
