MARIANNE WILLIAMSON: Marianne Williamson is an internationally acclaimed spiritual teacher. Among her 9 published books, four of them -- including A Return to Love - were #1 New York Times Bestsellers. A Return to Love is considered a must-read of The New Spirituality. A paragraph from that book, beginning "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure" - often misattributed to Nelson Mandela's Inaugural address - is considered an anthem for a contemporary generation of seekers. Her latest book, The Age of Miracles hit #2 on the New York Times Bestseller list. See her website at www.marianne.com GENE: "Marianne Williamson is more than the simple words 'committed to humanity'. She is gracious, giving and compassionate on a level of determination that commands attention. She was one of first persons' I had on the original peacemakers list. So to finally meet and speak with her was a dream come true. And her wordsmith is beyond anything I have experienced to date. She speaks from such a compassionate conviction that I couldn't help but question how is it that mankind can nurture a Marianne Williamson, and yet be so committed to destroying itself. I know what it is to believe in humanity with someone like Marianne Williamson in the world and I know that miracles are not outside me because of her."
