By all accounts time is speeding up and space-time is contracting. As we move further into 2012 this phenomenon is almost palpable. Just where do the hours and days go?
Terence McKenna, the late psychedelics-inspired luminary, spoke of an imminent convergence of time-lines that would bring about a ‘singularity’ event: the point where past, present and future become fused into the vibrant chords of the ‘here and now’. Just what might such an event portend?
Time is a human invention, a tool for measuring the changing circadian paths of the planets, the phases of the moon, the passage of night and day. It is a useful device, but can easily become the opposite when relied upon too heavily. Indeed, the division of time into hours, minutes and seconds has mostly been used to delineate the financial value of the working day – a far cry from its cosmic origins.
McKenna’s singularity event describes the condensing of all ‘time’ (past events) into an ever more energised and suspended state of ‘presence’. For example, he speaks of the condensing of the last 64 years into just 12 months. A process that captures and passes through to us the vibratory ‘echo’ of significant historical events that have taken place over the intervening decades.
As these spiralling time lines pass ever closer to each other at ever shorter intervals, ‘time’ appears to speed up and we are moved ever closer to the ‘simultaneity’ event: an hourglass of tightly swirling energy whose vortex we ultimately pass through, emerging out on the ‘other side’.
Now, you don’t pass through a vortex and remain the same person you were when you went in! Such is the dynamic that our vibratory levels resonate at a higher frequency during this passage and at a higher level of consciousness. It is what the Saddhus of India extol their disciples to achieve: the state of “Be Here Now”. Westerners may prefer to call this experience a ‘rights of passage’. Those on this journey will get further support by dint of our planet’s shifting into an alignment with the centre of our Galaxy.
