Humanity is facing unprecedented, evolutionary changes. It is extraordinary —out of the renowned Mayan predictions has come the interpretation that we are facing the end of this world as we know it and the beginning of the new world by 2012. This date corresponds to environmental and social predictions of breakdowns and breakthroughs now widely known. Let’s assume there is some truth in these prophecies. What vision of the future, of the new world, might we see so that we can place our attention upon this vision as a unusual attractor to carry us through this critical transition ?
The Evolution of Consciousness
We notice that crisis precedes shift. Difficulties are evolutionary drivers. Intensifying pressure leads either to devolution and extinction or evolution and transformation. This is one reason that 2012 might be earthshaking and unbelievable to some. Furthermore, we understand that evolution creates radical newness. Life out of prelife, human life out of animal life. Is it possible that from our species, a new human and a new humanity are now emerging ? We can see the sequence from Homo habilis, Homo erectus, Homo Neanderthal, Homo sapiens, to Homo sapiens sapiens. Why should it cease with us? Is it possible that a new species has been gestating in the womb of self-consciousness through the great avatars, mystics, and visionaries for thousands of years, and that now, due to the crisis, this new human is being born in millions of us? It has been suggested as Homo progressivus (Teilhard de Chardin), Gnostic Human (Sri Aurobindo), Homo sapiens, sapiens, sapiens (Peter Russell), Homo noeticus (John White), Homo universalist (my own favorite name). It is possible that the basic shift point in this prophecy is the emergence of the “universal human,” by whatever name it is called, as a “new norm.” Possibly we will reach critical mass for this human by 2012.
The reality is we see ourselves coming to the end of the viability and even sustainability of ourselves in our present stage of self-centered self-consciousness. We are becoming “ego mutants,” as Alan Lithman calls current leadership, gaining powers we used to attribute to gods while we remain in the similar state of consciousness as our ancestors.
If we presuppose ourselves only a few years in the future, even by 2012, providing we do not annihilate ourselves first, we see the outlines of a immensely enhanced humanity, applying the growing edge of human consciousness, capacities , and evolutionary wisdom to life-sustaining goals , resulting in a quantum transmutation of the human species itself.
How Do We Get Ready For 2012?
Accept that the higher self, the inner voice, is you. Bring your projections home as your own developmental potential. Ask that deeper self to take dominion within your personality selves, and move your identity from your ego to your essence. This is the viatl step to being born as a more universal human. Then, find life purpose. Ask to embrace what you are here to do . Follow the compass of joy . Find out those who affirm the highest in you. Where two or more are gathered in the name of that highest dimension or your being there, “I Am” is in presence . Everyone is required. Everyone is beckoned . The greatest blessing any one of us can have is to say “yes” to the silent potential within us. Reach out to those who attract you, and connect with as many others doing the same as you potentially can.
