People experienced in the 10 to 12 years before 9/11 an extraordinary transformation of the world.

Perhaps 20 million people can now experience the material well-being of the more affluent parts of Europe and America. This is altogether new and has alleviated elsewhere in China a tremendous amount of poverty. It is true that there are sections of China which are still poor, but as a whole China has come out of the agonizing poverty which it knew before...

What It Means

This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "People experienced in the 10 to 12 years before 9/11 an extraordinary transformation of the world. For the people involved, some of these were tremendous... the Chinese experiment which has steadily brought a large section of the population into a material abundance which they have never known before.

People... have found a growing interdependence, a recognition of the oneness of humanity and the necessity of seeing the world as one, and that real changes are possible only on a global scale" in the context of "Benjamin Creme, The World Teacher for All Humanity, (2007)" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
