Guest guest Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Oneness and the Future People often wonder what the future of the Oneness Movement is and where it is going. Bhagavan often jokes that humanity needs to wake up soon so he, Amma and the Guides can retire. If one looked at the nightly news on any given evening it certainly doesn’t seem like the people on this planet are anywhere near waking up. However according to John L. Petersen, futurist and President of the Arlington Institute, which is a Think Tank, located just outside of Washington DC things are going on planet Earth just as expected. At the Arlington Institute they spend all day analyzing trends and crunching data points from all across the human spectrum. They look at economic trends, climate trends, social trends and any other kind of trend that exists to do one thing, predict what will happen in the future. At this time, they are particularly focused on the next three to four years through 2012. John was in India at Oneness University in January of 2008 and spent some time with Bhagavan discussing these and many other issues. Bhagavan asked John to speak to all the Blessing Givers so they would be informed of where we are currently standing on our journey into the Golden Age. Recently at Oneness Conferences around the world Mr. Petersen presented a summary of what the trends seem to be saying for the next few years of existence here on the blue planet. He states that we are at a time of extraordinary change. The interesting thing about all the trends is that they all seem to be heading in the same direction. He showed many different graphs that represented financial models, climate models, energy models and many more types of models. The graphs all had one thing in common, the lines connecting the date points looked like a hockey stick. This means that the data was pretty much the same for many years and then in the last few years it shoots up to almost a straight line. It was astounding to see so many different types of graphs representing various aspects of our world all looking almost the same. The sharp upturn in the graphs represents that everything is basically speeding up at a rate never seen before in recorded history. A very interesting point was made that the data in these graphs seem to be heading to what Mr. Petersen defined as singularity, or put another way, towards oneness. However, if you just watched the first half of the presentation you would probably have left the room not feeling so good. He first presented on the state of the economic system, as we know it and how it seems to be crumbling under its own weight. This now seems to be happening before our very eyes if we are to believe what we see on television and in the Newspapers. There is a quote from Warren Buffet in his presentation that says that the current financial system is highly unstable and is a ticking time bomb. Mr. Petersen goes on to say that many banks will start failing and there is a good chance that the economy as we know it today could collapse. He also speaks about the dreadful condition of Earths delicate environment and her climate. He speaks about the very real possibility of even more dramatic climate changes in the near future than we have already seen. One of the big dangers is the Gulf Stream. If it slows down dramatically it will stop bringing warm air to Europe and it could send most of Europe into a deep freeze. There were also warnings about sea levels rising if the glaciers continue to melt at the rate they have been. The data seems to show that despite what some people think, the earth is actually warming up. Global warming could actually plunge the planet into another ice age. The data he shared about the climate change was not pretty. After all of that great news Global Pandemics was the next issue to be addressed. The last major flu pandemic was in 1918 and it killed anywhere from 50-100 million people over a time span of about 340 days. With the invention of airplanes and an increased population the devastation of a similar pandemic would be much more drastic these days. Over 300 million people could be killed on about 180 days according to the data collected. According to Mr. Petersen the chances of a major pandemic over the next few years is surprisingly good. So if you are still reading don’t worry there is good news to follow. This is not about a doomsday. Although at this point it seems that everyone on planet earth is doomed, there is a wild card in all of this dreadful news. That wild-card of course is human consciousness. As the level of the collective consciousness rises on the planet we will see even more breakthroughs in technology and awareness then we have seen up until this point. The major breakthrough areas include computing technology, biotechnology and energy. One statistic showed that the amount of technological breakthroughs in this century would be 1000 times greater than that of the 20th Century. That number is mind boggling and very impressive. This basically means that just with technology alone, the world we be living in will soon look very different to the one we are living in now. Artificial intelligence is the result of increased computing power. One amazing study revealed that by 2039 that one single computer would be a billion times more intelligent than all the human beings combined. This means that we can put the computers to work to discover solutions to some of these seeming problems that are lurking on our doorstep. We just have to be careful that we don’t turn the earth into a sci-fi movie and end up being controlled by the world’s computers. The real advantage to this is the dramatic shift in solving problem and learning capabilities. Some amazing breakthroughs are being made in the field of biotechnology. Scientists have also started to grow human body parts in labs. The world of cloning body parts, humans and animals is literally around the corner. This means that instead of fixing certain parts of the body, they can simply be replaced by new ones. The implications of this are far reaching. One gentleman named Aubrey de Grey from Cambridge University believes that human beings will easily be able to live to be about 200 years old. Let’s talk energy now. We all know that oil is on its way out over the next couple of decades. Thankfully for all of us major alternative energy solutions have already been developed. We will soon be able to harness the energy of the waves in the ocean, use certain typed of bacteria to produce a certain time of ethanol that could be an excellent replacement for gasoline. Zero point energy and cold fusion are other areas of energy technology that could power the entire planet many times over at a much less cost then we are currently paying. There is such a massive supply of zero point energy that Mr. Petersen feels that maybe this is the scientific term for what we know as the feeling of love. What a beautiful thought that is! There is so much destruction, innovation and change on the way that it is very obvious that we are currently right in the middle of a dramatic paradigm shift. Paradigm shifts are not easy and not without conflict and some tough times. However, according to the Mayan Calendar and also Bhagavan the consciousness of the planet is going to raise dramatically. So the problems that seem insurmountable from our current state of awareness might be easily solvable from a higher state of awareness. This is where the Oneness Movement comes in. As more and more people receive the Oneness Blessing the higher the consciousness on the planet will be. Bhagavan says that we only need between 64,000 and 65,000 to shift the awareness of the entire planet. It is entirely possible for this to happen. We are so blessed to be part of this family and we have an amazing role to play in the fundamental change of everything on this planet. It all starts with the raising of the human consciousness and that is the business that the Oneness Movement is in plain and simple. So let’s all come together, allow grace to shift ourselves first and then get out there in the world and give the Oneness Blessing to as many people as quickly as we can. Then we can sit back in awe and watch the world shift beautifully into the Golden Age! Who wants to join me in this effort? I spoke to John Petersen while writing this article and asked him if he had any practical advice for the members of the Oneness family at this time. He said the most important thing we can do is to not get caught up in the chaos that is going on surrounding the financial crisis or any other impending disasters that may come up. If you get emotionally linked in to what the media is portraying there is a very good possibility that you will start to worry about the future. Worrying is the most counterproductive thing that we can do in this time because it could paralyze us in the time when action is needed the most. It is important to know what it is happening, in order to make practical preparations, but leave it at that. He also suggests getting your news from the Internet vs. the television. This way you can pick and choose what you wish to focus on. When watching TV they choose what you will focus on and with sounds and video the negative energy can be much more intense. The most productive thing we can do is to keep working on ourselves and continue on this path of awakening. John used a beautiful metaphor to describe how this coming transition will affect those in the world. He says that those that are consciously working towards awakening and raising their level of awareness will be able to ride this new energy all the way to the shores of a highly awakened state of consciousness. Those that are not on the this path and have mind sets that are stuck in the status quo the wave will look more like a gigantic tsunami that will crash down upon them. He also says that from Bhagavan and many other sources he has been told that the veil between the physical world and the spiritual world will become very thin and transparent. For someone on his or her way to or in an awakened state this will be most likely be a source of joy, yet if you are not aware of this other aspect of life it could wreak havoc and crumble your whole sense of existence. My guess is that if you are reading this article that you are in the first group of people, so just continue on your path and enjoy the ride. John also spoke of the importance of holding a vision of what the new world will look like as the old one is crashing down. Not only is a vision important, but also then it is also extremely important to be taking steps towards that vision. It’s important to start making these visions concrete. The last point that John made is that it is extremely important to stay open to the suggestions that will come your way that will help take care of you. This is simply Divine guidance. The more you have worked on yourself and have accepted yourself as you are and can truly see what is inside you, the higher you’re level of consciousness will be and the easier it will be for you to hear the guidance. This guidance may tell you some pretty strange things like to pack up and move or it may tell you to stay exactly where you are be a lighthouse for those people in your area that may be blindsided by what is to come. Whatever the guidance is simply listen and be in the present moment and the Divine will take care of the rest.
