8. I think people are listening to him now, because I think he is who they have been looking for.

That’s not to say that his current message is any different than it was, decades ago. Principles and ethics are constant. Rather, it is that we are at a time when more people are able to hear him.


Maybe we had to go through all that we went through over the past several decades in order to be ready for someone like him.

Had he stepped forward in 2004 eg, the time would not have been right.

I think that in his heart he believes this is the time. I think he has stated that we are at a 'pivotal moment in history'.

As someone above said 'when the student is ready the teacher will appear'.

Great OP, as usual.
