Both the Mexican and the North American face the problem of reconciliation with the universe. Man has been separated from the universe ever since birth, and he cannot find his way back. Some religions call that isolation "sin", but that might be simply a mythical explanation. Man has reached the end of communication. Mexican and North American cultures have gradually led their citizens into isolation, and the road out will be long and difficult. Yet that is where the solution lies. Once men are able to communicate with each other in meaningful ways, they will be united to the universe again.
