Apocalypse or Paradise? History Unveiled: Odd Gods for Sod Bods

Apocalypse or Paradise?
History Unveiled – Odd Gods for Sod Bods

The snake venom bursts through my bloodstream and floods my brain with psychedelic visions and death-trip memories and projections. My resourceful body attempts to integrate the primordial serpent proteins into the trance-substantial substance of its standing wave.


Unaware of the snakebite affecting my body and consciousness, O’Grady nonetheless ‘coincidentally’ attempts to make up the difference in psychic potential by consuming a small handful of dried blue meanies – an extraordinary synchrony of expanded consciousness during the extended moment of the new moon’s voided momentum.


Unaware of the snakebite affecting my body and consciousness, O’Grady nonetheless ‘coincidentally’ attempts to make up the difference in psychic potential by consuming a small handful of dried blue meanies – an extraordinary synchrony of expanded consciousness during the extended moment of the new moon’s voided momentum.

He and Molki sit in the wooden Pentagon and the words circulate between us as I ride out the easily distanced waves of pain and desperate cogitation as the peak of the toxic rush approaches. This Hermetic Hermit is glad of the release that comes with uncorking the bottle of the genie dwelling within him, and words pour from my mouth in an almost unstoppable flood in the brilliant fluorescing darkness beneath the encircling canopy of stars.

“You have to view the solar system as an integrated whole – the Sun-disk is a positive pole of a system in which the planets are all negatively-charged capacitors, all inhabiting harmonic shells within the charged plasma of the ‘solar bubble’. The thin dielectric medium of so-called ‘empty space’ is becoming more highly charged – some believe that this rise in solar activity and background potential – in which the Earth, Mars and Jupiter can all be seen to be warming – is due to the return of the Sun’s companion, approaching through the solar bubble of the Sun’s vast atmosphere.

The increase in solar activity is expected to result in a surge that destroys all the satellites orbiting the Earth and cooks all the integrated circuits on the surface of the globe. No planes, no cars, no communications, no technology – no food in the supermarkets or water in the tap and only your feet to get you anywhere.”

            “When?”

            “Many expect the Great Ages to change when the so-called Mayan calendar ends on the Solstice in 2012 – but as the destructive vengeful Lord remarks in the old books – ‘No man may know the day of my coming – I come like a thief in the night.’ I’ve heard some women optimistically emphasise the word ‘man’ and perhaps miss the point entirely; or maybe not – Gaia has a long memory that can be tapped, and her insights are more trustworthy than the codified words of the priests of the Sky God.

But the ‘thief in the night’ reference pertains to a deity other than the Earth or the Sun – the Sun is the ‘good shepherd’ of all the gods and goddesses, the planets and moons and all who dwell on them. The thief in the night comes out of the darkness of the abyssal depths of the Great Water between the stars – an extremely elliptical companion to the Sun, accompanied by a wandering pack of unpredictable, eccentric rogues. 

The companion is variously known as Planet X, Nibiru to the Sumerians, Marduk to the Babylonians, also known as Maldek, Nemesis or the ‘Tenth Planet’ – and often confused with another destructive wandering body.  All the planets are gods and goddesses, remember – including the ‘Lord’, the ‘high sky god’ of the Hebrews – who hasn’t manifested for quite some time.

            “That’s why the wiser teachers say ‘Don’t look forward to the Day of the Lord’, for that day is the day of doom and destruction, the end of the world as we know it.”

            “So ‘the Lord’ is a large planet that passes through the solar system? Why can’t we see it then?”

            “It’s a faint ‘brown dwarf’ star, and it’s pretty hard to see anything of that order of magnitude unless you’re looking right at it. It comes with a coterie of smaller orbiting bodies, moving in retrograde motion to the rest of the solar system; it’s closest approach approximates the orbital shell of the so-called ‘asteroid belt’.

            “Why ‘so-called’?”

            “Because there’s more than the one asteroid belt we were taught about in the schools of the last millennium, when science chose to believe that the solar system was stable and inherently safe; governed by Newtonian clockwork, nothing had changed substantially for at least three billion years. Everything had stabilised a long time ago and life on spaceship Earth was thought to be subject only to glacially slow change – not catastrophic bouts of sudden transformation resulting in a ‘new heaven and a new Earth’.

“Then the ‘string of pearls’ – a cometary chain that could have easily destroyed the Earth – hit Jupiter a decade ago and astronomers suddenly realised that the gas giants hadn’t already swept up all the debris we might encounter after all. We’re not sailing through an empty cosmos after all. Beyond Neptune for instance is another asteroid belt that contains lots of big stuff, far more material than the belt between the orbits of Jupiter and Mars – which contains only enough material to account for something far smaller than the Earth; only enough debris to make a moon or ‘dwarf’ planet; but it’s all actually debris from a past planetary collision.

“We were taught that most of the material in the solar system exists on the plane of the ecliptic – except for Pluto, whose unusual orbit is heavily inclined to the plane traversed by all the other familiar planets and the asteroid belt between Jupiter and Mars. Now Pluto is classed as a ‘dwarf’ planet, a possible escapee from Neptune or the ‘Nereid’ belt beyond Neptune – and there are many more bodies of similar size orbiting around the Sun outside the ecliptic, some on extremely elliptical paths that follow and inhabit high harmonics instead of circular paths.

“According to the Sumerian texts (as interpreted by Zachariah Sitchin), Pluto is actually an escaped satellite of ‘Planet X’. It’s widely recognised that something turned Uranus on its side and radically altered the orbits of Neptune’s moons; something of an order of ten times the mass of current-day Jupiter…”

“Bigger than a dwarf planet, then – as big as a dwarf star. How many of these dwarf planets are there?” Molki asks, patting her pregnant belly.
“The more we look, out off the well-examined plane of the ecliptic, the more we see. Have you heard how Pluto was discovered?”

“No.”

“Percival Lowell, the Astronomer Royal of Britain, noticed along with many others that something seemed to be perturbing the moons of the outer gas giants. He decided that they must be influenced by a large body and calculated where such a thing might be found.

“In the early 1930s Clyde Tombaugh duly swung the big British scope that way and exposed a couple of glass photographic plates – that showed a ‘wandering’ body in precisely the location Lowell had predicted. The field of the telescope’s view was a tiny, tiny segment of the sky and he found Pluto amazingly quickly. That’s why its old planetary symbol was ‘PL’ – it stood for ‘Percival Lowell’, not ‘Pluto’ – an interesting (and perhaps contrived) coincidence in itself. Pretty good science, huh?” Molki and O’Grady smile.

“The only problem was, Lowell’s calculations were reexamined in the 1960s – by which time we had a reasonable idea of Pluto’s actual size and location – and it was discovered that there was no way that something of that apparent mass could possibly be perturbing the outer moons of the gas giants.

“So did Tombaugh actually find Pluto by accident? Do you know what the odds are against that happening? For a start, something is undeniably perturbing the moons of the gas giants, after all. We’re left with at least a couple of interesting possibilities; either there’s something else out there, something big; or Pluto – which we’ve only been examining for a fraction of the time it takes to orbit the Sun – is a hell of a lot more massive than it should be.”

Molki leans forward. “So which is it?”

“Well the recent passages of our solar system-exploring satellites would have been expected to find major gravitic anomalies if Pluto had any; but maybe not. And Pluto failed to reach its perihelion – its closest approach to the Sun – at the predicted time a couple of decades back; but it did begin to swing out again a little later…

“Anyway, the real point is that the solar system has been traveling around the galaxy for a long, long time and it swims in and out of the galactic plane in a sine-wave. When we pass through the centre of the plane of the Milky Way we encounter a lot of crap, and larger things besides…”

“So this brown dwarf is coming back?”

“Maybe – but as the old babbling books also say, ‘My time has been foreshortened’ – which is to say that throughout the Great Ages recorded by the Maya and others, the cycles of return of the Great Slayer were regular and predictable; but during the last passage a close interaction with another body altered is orbit in unpredictable ways.”

“So it may miss us entirely?”

“The main danger to Earth is not the passage of Nemesis, but the piles of rock and metal and frozen fossilised biosphere that tumble toward us every time it passes through a debris field – through the asteroid belts or Oordt Cloud that surrounds the solar system. That’s what happened to the planet where the asteroid belt is now…”

“Hit by the brown dwarf?”

“The ancients say that the asteroid belt planet was actually struck by one of the orbiting companions of the elliptical dwarven star; the crust was torn from the planet and mingled with the shattered remnants of the satellite that struck it to form the asteroid belt and many of the comets. Some called that ancient unfortunate planet ‘Ichthus’, a gateway to the multiverse that glowed more brightly than any other star or planet in its day. It was the original Lucifer; it glowed in the night, self-illumined by amazing aurorae, and it was inhabited – a liquid planet whose fluids were held in semi-miraculous suspension, the Pearl of Great Price, a planetary crystal ball that was older than the solar system and a gateway to everywhere.

“It’s a very long story. This happened when the dinosaurs were blotted out, and the planet that resonated with the structure of the physical Third Eye in terrestrial organisms was shattered; the third eye shrank and slipped within, except in certain ‘living fossils’ like the Tuatara of New Zealand…”

“The asteroid belt is the other shattered intruding satellite, and the crust of the planet that was once there, you say – but what happened to the core?”

“The core wandered through the solar system in an extreme elliptical orbit for a long time, until it interacted with Jupiter and was thrown back into the plane of the ecliptic. It interacted repeatedly with the inner planets, tearing the biosphere off Mars in repeated passages and destroying each Earthly civilisation that arose in a roughly 7,000 year cycle. ‘Planet X’, the brown dwarf Nemesis, has a different cycle again. There was also a three and a half thousand year cycle that created lesser tides of destruction in a disharmonic resonance…”

“And where is the rogue core of the asteroid planet now?” O’Grady asks.

“Now it’s the planet with the most circular orbit of all, the brightest planet in the sky – Venus, with land tides of tens of feet, no stable crust, a sulphuric brimstone atmosphere, pools of molten metal and a surface temperature of 438 degrees Celsius -  that certainly can’t be accounted for by a ‘runaway greenhouse effect’! It unaccountably rotates in reverse direction to all the other planets and the unexpected velocity of its upper atmosphere shows signs of recent stabilisation. Just this week a scientist has published a report indicating that Venus must have been created in a large planetary impact – no mention of Immanuel Velikovsky, of course – he’s been virtually erased from history…”

“And it’s an interesting point that the word ‘Venus’ means ‘the one that arrives,” O’Grady points out. “Why would you call a planet ‘the one that arrives’?” I pin him between the parallel lances of my venom-blurred vision.
“I thought I as the only one who noticed that,” I say. “The simple and obvious fact that ‘Venus’ is Latin for ‘she who comes’ – or ‘he’ or ‘it’.”
“Ah,” O’Grady concedes, “I think it was you who mentioned it to me when I was here all those years ago.”

“Excellent memory.”

 

“So the cycle of destruction has ended?” Molki asks.

“Yes and no – the pathway once inhabited by proto-Venus – or  ‘Ichthus’, or ‘long-haired Lucifer’, the light-maker – is still accompanied by her handmaidens – large masses in the order of, say, Phobos and Deimos, the moons of Ares-Mars – which was pulled along in Venus’ train and for a time was very close to the Earth – as close as the Moon. It was inhabited as well, another long story…”

O’Grady takes a deep draw and asks his next question through a cloud of smoke. “So these rocks that are still flying around in Venus’ old orbit are dinosaur killers? Miles across?”

“Some – but most are smaller, and they aren’t all rocky. You see, the real point is that all the bods in the know are intending to ride out five years of potential planetary destruction in their underground arks and military bases and refuges – but they don’t know what’s going to happen. Maybe nothing will happen – or nothing they expect. The cycle that the old Illuminati guarded for millennia between catastrophes in their codices and coded religions has changed. Venus has only been in its current orbit for less than three thousand years. The rocks may miss us entirely and we’ll have to cope with not dying – which is a much more difficult scenario than planetary megadeath; it means we have to somehow clean up the mess and work out how not to suffocate in our own shit!

“Besides, as Ben Elton (the ‘son of the Elohim) points out, the very worst place to be at a time like that would be inside a sealed bunker or spaceship with a bunch of hideous militant power mongers and control freaks…”

“So nothing may happen after all?”

“That’s right – and whatever happens, we’ll be responsible for creating it because we really do create reality with our emotion-charged hopes and fears; life alters the apparently random odds of reality, and that’s all it takes for life to survive against the odds. If enough people can dream of a future then we’ll all get to have one – we’ll steer a course between the flying rocks, as we do every year.”

“Every year?”

“There plenty of near-misses with asteroids, as you know – and there are other ‘asteroid belts’ that the Earth passed through the edges of a couple of times a year – the so-called ‘Taurid streams’ for instance, vast loops of debris that our orbit takes us through repeatedly, that incidentally are thought to be the result of a collision in Earth’s orbit around 14,000 years ago, give or take; when the Earth tilted twenty degrees on its axis, at the end of the last ‘ice age’. It’s a miracle anyone survived at all…

But back to the Taurids; they contain asteroid-sized chunks that are continually reacting with other bodies in the streams, and many are continually outgassing like comets, so that their orbits are essentially unpredictable – random – and therefore easily affected by mass consciousness and will. You have to remember that most of our concepts are askew; the nature of the solar system and Sun is actually electrical and harmonic, not nuclear or gravitic…”

“So all the arseholes may bury themselves in their bunkers for nothing, then? What a joke!”

“Yes and no – as Ben Elton also points out, they aren’t relying on chance alone to wipe out the bulk of the human race and eliminate the competition – they intend to ensure that there are as few survivors as possible to meddle in their apocalyptic plans. That’s where plagues and certain advanced technologies come in; and they suspect that the increase in solar activity will result in flares that completely incapacitate all modern technology on the surface, but don’t believe that this will be a more than temporary change of state…”

“Shit.”

“They’re aiming for a planetary population of half a billion tops when they emerge onto the surface of the new Earth, under the new Heaven – you don’t really need any more slaves than that, after all. The bunkers are everywhere – most are remote, but many smaller ones are secreted right under the noses of city populations. If you have the special card – if you’re an indispensable doctor or nurse, say, or bureaucrat – you’ll get the call and a vehicle will pick you up if you can’t make your way to the assembly point when the phone call comes.

“Ask around and you’ll be able to find some people on the list who’ll talk to you about it – but of course, many won’t; they’re afraid of losing their seat on the ark, and ‘national security’ ensures that they will if they talk…”
“Loose lips sink ships…”

“Or bunkers. And they don’t want a whole pile of rats joining them when the fat lady sings and the Titanic’s about to go down. Remember the Cold War mentality prevalent when many of these bunkers were built? You were expected to take a rifle down with you into your backyard bunnyhole, to shoot any neighbours who tried to get in and survive along with you… as if a concrete-lined ditch would help in a thermonuclear explosion. Most of the old suburban backyard fallout shelters are probably granny flats by now, or growing rooms full of lights…”

“Yet be not afraid – the Good Shepherd has told me that there is a Divine Plan in which everyone will get precisely what they want. If you really love technology, He has a wonderful red planet in mind for you, where people who love technology will need it in order to survive. Like most things under the Sun, it’s all happened before. And those who love the Earth will become wise weavers on a beautiful green planet – where inappropriate technology will no longer work. The solar field is changing in ways our outmoded ‘nuclear furnace’ models cannot possibly predict…”

And if worse comes to worse the native people have been through all this before. Life goes on – they have ways of surviving the worst, and continue to smile and watch while we grow the bulk of our populations in known tidal wave zones. They take the long view, and it isn’t like they didn’t try to tell their naïve young ‘civilised’ cousins – who exterminated them and their knowledge.

“You know what the Aboriginal people call us around here? ‘The space people’.”

Aye, gentle reader, snake venom and a few insightful questions can make this Hermetic Hermit quite loquacious.

“So tell me,” O’Grady asks with a glint in his eye, “do you believe in God?”



Step out of the chains binding your mind and life! Your parents and grandparents were happy and satisfied to be lied to by those who still get away with stealing the wealth and knowledge of the Earth (and everywhere else) for themselves – are you?

Turn on. Tune in. Opt OUT! You have nothing to lose but your blinkers. Security is only found within and true abundance comes only to those prepared to give everything away when they no longer need it.

New Paradigms for a New Paradise: Everything We Were Taught Is Wrong

New Paradigms for a New Paradise

Everything We Were Taught Is Wrong

When I was a child everyone knew that human brain cells didn’t regenerate, and cavities couldn’t heal in children’s teeth; but they do now, in case you hadn’t noticed.

Only a few years ago everyone knew that genes were fixed and unchangeable in your body, and that your DNA didn’t alter in response to environmental effects; it does now.

Stem cells can grow your organs back in situ and heal almost all degenerative diseases, free energy technologies exist which have been ruthlessly suppressed for decades, there’s plenty of life in space, psychic abilities including telepathy and telekinesis have been shown to be real, we live in a nested series of multiverses - and there are many, many other reasons why almost everything you were taught in school beyond the ‘three Rs’ is partially correct at best, and is likely to be completely wrong.

People still believe that space is a vacuum, even though we’ve long been aware that it’s a highly charged medium filled with a plethora of energetic particles, waves and fields.

A generation ago the oldest artefacts of full-blown Central American civilizations were deemed to be around a thousand years old. New evidence has emerged that these advanced societies were extant over thirteen thousand years ago; yet we’re still taught that ‘civilization’ began when cavemen crawled from their holes to build Jericho. Even though ample evidence of steel-using societies exits to show that the Iron Age began at least eleven thousand years ago (preserved in what is now the Black Sea and Turkey, among other places), outdated views of ancient history are still being taught.

The widely acknowledged unhistorical lies of all religions – including Christianity, Judaism and Islam – remain gospel to hundreds of millions of deluded people. These fundamental falsehoods continue to hoodwink humankind and blind people to the truths of the new paradigms emerging all around us – and to our own true potential.

Many foods, chemicals and drugs which societies prescribed for their citizens only a generation ago are deemed crazily toxic today. Many ideas that were regarded as gospel for millennia have been swept aside in just a couple of decades. Until the advent of the internet, broader perspectives and broadened minds were difficult to achieve; the world was even more of a dysfunctional set of competitive and mutually suspicious tribes than it is today. More and more people can see that the emperor has no clothes and entire populations are learning to think for themselves.

Until a generation ago it was considered natural for women in ‘developed’ countries to stay at home to raise children and feed their men, who trooped off all day, every day as the primary wage earners. Unwed mothers were social pariahs and fatherless children were regarded as a sub-class of humans. Even more recently, homosexuality was considered a heinous crime in many ‘advanced’ nations. Many mental illnesses were often ‘treated’ with lobotomies or electro-shock ‘therapy’ and homelessness was a crime.

The death penalty was widespread a generation ago, along with rampant unreported rape and unspeakably common pedophilia - acts which regimentally-minded control freak cultures preferred to leave unexamined and unspoken. Rape within marriage wasn’t considered a crime, and a woman’s property was subject to being summarily confiscated by her husband. People customarily turned a selectively blind eye to all sorts of unconscionable behaviour, and daily drunkenness was a normal regimen for millions.

Children were regularly hit by adults; bullying and sexual harassment were unavoidable in most schools and workplaces. Violence was often ignored, and regarded as unavoidable in many circumstances; domestic violence was a taboo topic. Bloodsports were common and socially sanctioned, while safety equipment and the development of safe practices and procedures in sports, schools and workplaces was almost unheard of.

The choice of foods was abysmal a generation ago, when the excesses of the agro-chemical industry were already well established and poisons were ubiquitous and virtually unavoidable. Societies stuck to the limited range of foods their parents had introduced them to, and nutrition was haphazard and poorly understood. Alternative healing was used only by a discerning few and healthy foods were viewed with suspicion and contempt by the co-opted consumerist majority.

Only a generation ago, people were usually old and tired at fifty-five or sixty and considered themselves to be very lucky if they lived to be sixty-five or seventy.

Politicians were widely respected and their word was commonly believed. Many citizens were rabidly nationalistic in nations that huddled under nuclear umbrellas, in fear of a mythical Cold War’s shadow. Many believed that theirs was the last generation and that a sky fairy would be on their side in an imagined final war that would destroy the entire world – a conflagration which many ‘religious’ people actually longed to witness.

We’re still largely blind to the craziness of today’s civilization and blissfully ignorant of the unnecessary poisons and dis-eases we inflict upon ourselves every day, in every way. Underarm deodorants and tight bras cause breast cancer. Most cosmetics, soaps, shampoos and conditioners contain dangerous chemicals, and toxins easily pass through your skin into your bloodstream; with many chemicals, your skin is more permeable than your gut. Vaccines are laden with mercury, formaldehyde and other poisons that shouldn’t be allowed near adult bloodstreams, let alone those of growing children. Most meat, eggs and dairy products contain hormones and dangerous levels of a range of chemicals. Processed meats (including salami and devon, corned beef and cabanossi) are downright lethal, and microwave ovens and mobile phones are unsafe to use. Fifteen poisons are routinely sprayed on almost all food crops.

Most plastics contain hormone disrupting compounds which damage fertility and health in women and men. When the aromatic compounds in unleaded petrol pass through a catalytic converter they create nerve gas that permeates entire cities with a low-level numbing poison. Small amounts of radioactive waste are added to other metals in order to dispose of the stuff – in spoons, forks and knives, among other things – even in ‘developed’ countries like the USA. Radioactive uranium is used for ammunition in machine guns and howitzers, polluting the soil with a lethal element for billions of years to come. The ‘safety levels’ for pesticides, herbicides, radioactivity and most toxic chemicals are ludicrously inaccurate, and synergistic effects -  when more than one chemical is introduced into the environment or your body to mix and blend - create unprecedented and unpredictable problems. Just off the top of my head I could go on, and on, and on…

Modern society has surrounded itself with so many threats to life and health that it’s little wonder most people choose to exist in a state of denial. Many simply cannot believe that almost everything they touch, eat, drink or put on their bodies is a poison that’s slowly killing them. Most cannot bear to contemplate the fact that the simple wisdoms of Taoists, Wiccans, Animists and hippies - who have always avoided the sophisticated pseudo-luxuries of city-hives in favour of natural climes, entertainments and nourishments – are the sanest paths to follow. Most people cannot conceive giving up their addiction to toxic consumerism and living with the natural, living, breathing, growing world – and insecure cities swell to the point where they become totally unlivable, while the forests need replanting and the ravaged land needs the healing caress of a billion nurturing hands.

 

We’ve come a long way – and yet almost everything still taught in schools is wrong or misguiding. Even though repetitive rote teaching is finally out of favour, education has narrowed in scope as real learning is subsumed beneath the suffocating shroud of job training. Knowledge is deemed secondary to conformist academic results, and schools have become industrious training grounds for overspecialized slot-fillers, whose lives are dictated by the transient whims of business.

Teachers teach without explaining – many have no real grasp or vision of the knowledge they’re supposed to be imparting - and fundamental errors are copied and blindly recapitulated by overworked and stressed-out students. If you ask a teacher to explain the simplest fundaments of their subject from first principles you’ll often be disappointed by their response. They can tell you how electricity behaves, but can’t tell you why it behaves as it does, or actually describe the fields and energies that make possible the technological devices you use every day. They can tell you the value of everything but the meaning of nothing; meanwhile, ‘Humanities’ has become a term of vilification.

So much of what we take for granted is incorrect. We’ve been talking about healing the environment and creating sane healthy societies for so long that many people seem to believe the task has already been accomplished. In the past, citizens have usually fallen for rhetoric and chosen style over substance – but now we stand at the cusp of a brave new aeon, and have important personal choices to make. We can’t afford to fight each other to a standstill any more, or treat ourselves differently to the way we do others. We have to open our eyes to new realities and possibilities, and open our hearts to the unknown strangers and the strange ideas that we fear the most.

Great advances don’t occur in times of kings, emperors and other tyrants – they come about in melting pots of ideas and cultures; in times like our own.

 These Were the Bad Old Days

The tides of time and history have reached a confluence, and our choices are rapidly narrowing as we enter the cusp of a decisive moment. As many of the wiser conservative politicians have remarked, ‘we’re all greenies now’. As the world economy goes down the gurgler and people become more desperate, we have a bright brief moment to decide the course of our individual and collective futures - before rationality is once more swept aside by the apparent dictates of unsustainable competitive behaviour. We can ride the shifting tide to a more pleasurable destination than the obvious horrors elucidated by prophets of doom.

The competitive chaos and eternal dissatisfaction of modern consumer societies is almost as stultifying and alienating as the moribund communist regimes of the last century. If we’re to live in a civilization built to accommodate the real needs of human beings we’re going to have to create it ourselves. We have to cast off the shrouds of outworn notions, lifestyles and technologies and embrace the most ancient truths of all – the realities that arise from being an enlightened immortal consciousness experiencing the life of a tribally-oriented domesticated primate on planet Earth.

Extraordinary new paradigms are already growing within the outmoded shell of the old social orders, which will inevitably implode of their own accord when the time is ripe. Complex societies are inevitably submerged beneath the constricting weight of hyper-organisation and restriction. Like water, freedom inexorably seeps through the seams of regimental order and ultimately overcomes all barriers, levies and narrowly focused canalized systems.

We can still create a sustainable civilization and survive the worst excesses of our past addictions to poisonous lifestyles and toxic consumerism. Growth for its own sake is pointless and lethal on the surface of a highly populated sphere. We can only continue to grow and prosper by changing the ways we think and act, and by spending our time, energy and money more intelligently and honourably. If we’re to live in a truly healthy world we have to see the problems our current lifestyles create, and dream up new ways of living together.

We need to say goodbye to outmoded jobs, tools and industries and ride the changing currents to healthier and happier lives. Wage slaves need to free themselves from mundane tasks that eat up the time of their lives. Pointless industriousness, money-grubbing self-enslavement and beurocratic punctiliousness must be recognised for what they are - time-filling distractions from the main game of having a fruitful life in a bountiful world.

We must question everything about our fundamentally feudal and medieval civilizations, and conceive how to create and enjoy a plentiful world. There’s more than enough to go around if we can only relax enough to share. We can still create a paradise on Earth – if we stop destroying the planet in the pursuit of illusory money, merit, credit, careers and power. If we’re to learn how to live in a global paradise, we have to work, play and live with each other, now, today. We need to achieve far more than simple tolerance of each other’s differences and foibles – we have to open our lives wholeheartedly to other women, men and children who are brave and open enough to do the same.

There is actually an abundance of energy and materials on Planet Earth; a thorough shakedown of the world’s economies and industries is necessary to break the gridlock of the military/industrial/feudal mindset, that’s congealed around humans like a hypnotic cloud for the last few millennia of regular war and monarchical terrorism. The current shift is a nexus point in history, yet the future is still writ on water; we shall emerge from the shadow of dark industrial mills and step into a new paradigm, but the delineaments of the future will be decided by the struggle within each and every human heart.

Once in every generation there comes a time when the tide turns, and meaningful choices can be made by each and every one of us – apparently personal decisions that will directly influence coming events. If we’re ready to climb out of our private bunkers and fortified homes we can seize the day and right the wrongs of the world – and learn that the world is made of mindstuff. If we aim for a happy, healthy, hopeful future we won’t be trapped in the default settings created by fears and desires - which feed on the insecurity created by the socially segregating separation of woman and man, child and parent, of differently hued tribes, races, flags and religions. This is the time to examine our motives and transform our inner selves, if we’re to have a real hope of creating a future powered and nourished by clean, green natural systems. We can all have a great future, in our very own lifetimes, crafted from the shifting clay of our heartfelt hopes and dreams – if we stop feeding destruction with our thoughts, words, deeds and jobs and seek out better ways to live together.

At this nexus point in history, the future is in our hands; we have a chance to create fairer societies at last. Free clean energy, abundant healthy food, pure water, increasingly diverse ecosystems, human rights and technologically advanced and interesting lives are not mutually exclusive *; only prosperous, well-educated, freedom-oriented societies can have a hope of saving the environment. Prosperity, free access to information, free choice and a large amount of leisure time are all prerequisites to healing ourselves and the planet. There are plenty of interesting things to occupy us and many ways to exercise our bodies and imaginations in the days ahead. Do you enjoy the way you currently fill your time? Can you think of a better way to live? Do you dare to dream of paradise – for all?

Always on the edge of conceivability, the future beckons to us from behind a choice of doors, beyond which await the lady or the tiger - and an undreamt range of other possibilities. Last time I looked, the fate of Schrödinger’s cat was still undetermined. You wake up in a new world every day. If we remove our stupid neckties and subservient uniforms, and loosen the ties that bind our imaginations we can all live long and prosper amidst limitless bounty. We live in an infinite cosmos in which anything is possible – where we can achieve anything we can conceive, if only we imagine it into being for the right reason.

What would you do with a longer, healthier life? Why are you alive, here, now? What did you imagine you were, before you could understand words?

Who are you, really – how did you get here, and why? The answers to these questions are all you need to know to recreate the world.

What are you going to do when you look away from these words – right… NOW?
