a measure of control

if you look the world over, lots of indigenous tribes, in many traditions there are myths, legends, tales of a time to come, a time of great upheaval yes but also nonetheless a time of change, a time for renewal. The Hopis talk of America coming and going as in the United States not the landmass, the quickening that seeming unaccountable feeling that time is speeding up for all of us...
Right now could be seen quite easily as a turning point, a knife edge...
It's definitely a risky time to be alive, a difficult time, like a birth...
 
 One of the teachers I read a lot about A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada suggested that in this time, which some say is the end of an age and the start of a new one, said that any amount of practise we do in this time is greatly magnified, in times gone by you might need to meditate for your whole lifetime, now some is good whatever you can do will bring you great benefits, yoga, diet, lifestyle
Whatever we do creates ripples in time like a pebble on a pond to alter the ocean of conciousness which is why some feel so restricted, by fear, feelings of inadequacy
I know I fit into that category, I've been cowardly and fallen for the fakeness of our society, the desire for things we don't need, to fit in, all sorts of lies I believed.

What does the future hold? Who knows, it scares the fuck out of me, that I get to be here now, at the end of the world as anyone who came before knew it and the beginning of a new world, where technology can either free us or imprison us.
 
Where spirituality is on the rise allowing everyone to find their own faith, their own belief systems, ways of being in this world and ways of seeing the one beyond.
This world is changing so rapidly that I feel good that try as they might whoever has a line on attempting to have any measure of control over it will ultimately fail x
