It's true the world as stands right now is not going to change, and will have the effect of grinding it's inhabitants like a slowly ever-turning
millstone, into dust.
I do hold out the dim hope that the World and humanity are evolving. Several times I've the vision that everyone and everything was here by choice and not
by happenstance, and could change their karma by choice, if they so intended.
The world itself is like the Kalachakra, all of the realms are contained within it. Thus by changing our point of view, our worldview, through purifying our
minds not only are we transformed but the world is transformed as well. Or as the Ten Dai school of Buddhism puts it "even the trees and grass become
enlightened". But I see that it's a means for me to transcend the world or at least pull myself higher, not so much change it.
Ram Dass once said, this world is very good at what it does, purifying beings of their karma.
