WEBVTT

01:23.020 --> 01:28.600
heading toward a singularity in history in which yesterday looks nothing like today and

01:28.600 --> 01:32.290
today looks nothing like tomorrow.

01:32.290 --> 01:36.570
Almost universally ancient texts and traditions say that we are preparing for 1,000 years

01:36.570 --> 01:43.270
of a peaceful coexistence in this world and that sometimes our greatest strengths become

01:43.270 --> 01:53.070
apparent when we face the greatest challenges together.

01:53.070 --> 01:59.250
In the small town of Elberton, Georgia stands a mysterious monument built in 1980 by an

01:59.250 --> 02:02.910
anonymous gentleman named R. C. Christian.

02:02.910 --> 02:07.710
The Georgia Guidestones contain a message for the people of the future, describing a

02:07.710 --> 02:09.930
new way to live.

02:09.930 --> 02:12.850
For some, it is a message of hope.

02:12.850 --> 02:16.710
For others, a message of fear.

02:16.710 --> 02:21.650
Every year, millions of people pass by the murals at the Denver Airport.

02:21.650 --> 02:26.830
These murals seem to be telling us a story about the choices we must face as we look

02:26.830 --> 02:30.090
towards the future.

02:30.090 --> 02:30.670
In the small town of Elberton, Georgia stands a mysterious monument built in 1980 by an

02:30.670 --> 02:31.330
anonymous gentleman named R. C. Christian.

02:31.330 --> 02:35.450
In the small town of Henday in the south of France, there is an ancient monument describing

02:35.450 --> 02:41.560
the events that will occur at the end of our age.

02:41.560 --> 02:47.460
In Izapa, Guatemala, the early Mayan people left behind their long count calendar which

02:47.460 --> 02:53.380
told of a day when the fifth sun will end and the sixth sun will begin.

02:53.380 --> 02:59.220
According to this calendar, this shift of the ages will occur on December 21, 2012.

02:59.220 --> 03:03.940
The Karo people of Peru believe that we are the third child of the Brazilians, straight

03:03.940 --> 03:04.680
of the Earth.

03:04.680 --> 03:09.960
that we are now going through a time of purification. They have a prophecy called

03:09.960 --> 03:15.760
Pachacuti, which speaks of a time when the Inca will return and a new human

03:15.760 --> 03:20.760
will be born. The prophecies say that this will happen in 2012.

03:20.760 --> 03:37.380
It arises for no reason in absolutely likely of all singularities.

03:37.380 --> 03:45.540
The Big Bang is the notion that the universe for no reason sprang from

03:45.540 --> 03:55.040
nothing in a single instant. Notice that this is the limit test for credulity.

03:55.040 --> 04:02.780
That it is not possible to conceive of something more unlikely or less likely

04:02.780 --> 04:07.800
to be believed. That the universe would spring from nothing in a single instant

04:07.800 --> 04:14.300
for no reason, it makes no sense. It is in fact no different than saying and God

04:14.300 --> 04:15.300
said let there be peace.

04:15.540 --> 04:22.740
Let there be light. What the philosophers of science are saying is give us one free

04:22.740 --> 04:34.200
miracle. We will roll from that point forward, from the birth of time to the crack of doom.

04:34.200 --> 04:42.200
Doesn't it seem more likely if we have to have a singularity that it occurs in a domain

04:42.200 --> 04:45.200
with a rich history, with many causal streams.

04:45.200 --> 04:46.200
It is not possible to conceive of something more likely or less likely to be believed.

04:46.200 --> 04:49.000
It is not possible to conceive of something more likely or less likely to be believed.

04:49.000 --> 04:50.000
It is not possible to conceive of something more likely or less likely to be believed.

04:50.000 --> 04:51.000
Isn't it the creation that nurtures the complexity?

04:51.000 --> 04:52.000
In other words, I will talk about a divination that nurtures the complexity.

04:52.000 --> 04:53.000
In other words, to put it simply, if you have to have a singularity, doesn't it make

04:53.000 --> 05:10.480
more sense to put it at the end of a cosmogonic process than at the beginning?

05:10.480 --> 05:16.620
My inquiry into the end date of the Mayan long count calendar took me to Peru.

05:16.620 --> 05:21.500
Because of the protection of the high altitude of the Andes mountains, the Cairo, or Inca

05:21.500 --> 05:23.520
people, are one of the last indigenous peoples of the Americas, and it is there that I found

05:23.520 --> 05:24.520
my salvation.

05:25.520 --> 05:30.660
whose ancient traditions are not only still intact, but alive and breathing.

05:31.920 --> 05:36.240
The Cairo escaped the Spanish conquest by moving into the High Andes,

05:36.540 --> 05:39.020
where they have lived for over 500 years.

05:39.940 --> 05:44.620
They speak little or no Spanish, and still retain the beliefs and customs

05:44.620 --> 05:47.360
that have been passed down for many generations.

05:48.320 --> 05:53.160
The Cairo have an ancient prophecy concerning the return of Pachacuti,

05:53.160 --> 05:56.060
their great leader from before the conquest.

05:57.140 --> 06:02.740
Pachacuti, which means the turning over of the earth, also left behind a prophecy.

06:04.040 --> 06:09.420
In this prophecy, he said that this age of conquest and domination would come to an end,

06:09.960 --> 06:15.520
a new human would be born, and the earth would be restored to its former beauty and grace.

06:17.740 --> 06:22.120
The Cairo say that the return of Pachacuti is scheduled for 2012.

06:22.720 --> 06:25.900
On my way through some of the years,

06:25.920 --> 06:28.060
the highest mountains in the Western Hemisphere,

06:28.760 --> 06:34.260
I met and came to know the descendants of the once mighty Inca Empire who still live here.

06:35.360 --> 06:37.420
Extremely poor by our standards,

06:38.120 --> 06:43.320
the people of Peru have an inner fire and a deeply profound spiritual tradition

06:43.320 --> 06:48.660
which has nourished them and kept them alive through many historical calamities.

06:49.280 --> 06:52.540
The sacred valley has been carved out by the Urubamba River,

06:52.700 --> 06:55.820
which begins with the melted glaciers that lie,

06:55.920 --> 07:01.260
at the top of majestic mountains, which rise over 20,000 feet above sea level.

07:02.600 --> 07:07.360
Eventually, the Urubamba pours its contents into the vast Amazon Delta,

07:07.360 --> 07:09.860
and finally into the Atlantic Ocean.

07:16.390 --> 07:19.390
Dotting the mountains throughout the sacred valley and beyond,

07:19.390 --> 07:21.390
are many ancient Inca ruins.

07:22.290 --> 07:26.470
These ruins are magnificent, and one has to wonder how the ancient Inca

07:26.470 --> 07:31.550
were able to construct these temples using such huge stones and fit them together,

07:31.710 --> 07:32.710
so perfectly.

07:35.920 --> 07:39.680
Once more, I met up with Doña Bernadina and Don Humberto,

07:40.240 --> 07:42.240
shaman healers of the Quero.

07:43.000 --> 07:46.080
I wanted to know more about the prophecy of Pachacuti.

07:50.940 --> 07:53.580
I was assisted by Dr. Alberto Violdo,

07:53.920 --> 07:56.540
who translated their words into English for me.

07:57.080 --> 07:58.580
These are the last of the Inca.

07:59.320 --> 08:02.460
They are the elders of the Quero nation and their children.

08:03.460 --> 08:07.780
The Quero fled to high mountain tops at the time of the conquest,

08:08.300 --> 08:12.060
and took with them the body of prophecies and prophecies

08:12.060 --> 08:14.060
for awakening the luminous body.

08:14.060 --> 08:19.060
Evolutionary quantum leaps have always occurred during times of crisis.

08:19.060 --> 08:23.060
Today we are facing such a crisis, with global warming,

08:23.060 --> 08:27.060
with depleting oil reserves, with an oil-based economy.

08:27.060 --> 08:29.060
Gracias, compadre.

08:29.060 --> 08:35.060
These men and women have lived in high mountains for 500 years,

08:35.060 --> 08:37.060
and they predict

08:37.060 --> 08:42.060
that during the next six years, between now and the year 2012,

08:42.060 --> 08:48.060
we will be facing global crises of a dimension that we have not dreamt of before.

08:48.060 --> 08:53.060
And not a single crisis, but multiple crises occurring simultaneously,

08:53.060 --> 08:55.060
cascading crises.

08:55.060 --> 09:00.060
And whereas we may be prepared to meet the challenges of a great hurricane,

09:00.060 --> 09:02.060
or a storm, or an earthquake,

09:02.060 --> 09:07.060
several of these occurring simultaneously would be devastating

09:07.060 --> 09:13.060
to our economy, to our society, to the fabric of our lives.

09:13.060 --> 09:18.060
These seers left a body of prophecy 500 years ago

09:18.060 --> 09:21.060
that spoke about the return of Pachacuti,

09:21.060 --> 09:28.990
the return of the luminous ones.

09:28.990 --> 09:33.990
Doña Bernadina and Don Humberto decided to create a despacho.

09:33.990 --> 09:36.990
The despacho is an ancient healing ceremony

09:36.990 --> 09:39.990
where all of our negative feelings and thoughts

09:39.990 --> 09:42.990
are purified and burned away.

09:42.990 --> 09:44.990
The construction of a despacho

09:44.990 --> 09:48.990
is similar to that of a Tibetan sand mandala.

09:48.990 --> 09:51.990
It is formed with symbolic objects of beauty,

09:51.990 --> 09:54.990
endearment and humor to the caro.

09:54.990 --> 09:56.990
During the ceremony,

09:56.990 --> 09:59.990
all of our negative thoughts, feelings and emotions

09:59.990 --> 10:05.490
are placed inside the objects of the mandala.

10:05.490 --> 10:08.490
Not only do we release our negativity,

10:08.490 --> 10:10.490
but we also blow our prayers

10:10.490 --> 10:12.490
to the sacred coca leaves

10:12.490 --> 10:16.670
and place them in the despacho.

10:16.670 --> 10:18.670
At the end of the ceremony,

10:18.670 --> 10:20.670
the despacho will be gathered up in paper

10:20.670 --> 10:22.670
and placed in a fire,

10:22.670 --> 10:25.670
thereby dispatching the negative thoughts and feelings

10:25.670 --> 10:30.720
and burning them up in the flames.

10:30.720 --> 10:32.720
The despacho made me think

10:32.720 --> 10:35.720
of all that is going wrong with this world.

10:35.720 --> 10:37.720
I thought of the wars,

10:37.720 --> 10:39.720
the collapse of the environment,

10:39.720 --> 10:42.720
the lies and deceptions.

10:42.720 --> 10:44.720
I wondered if we could take

10:44.720 --> 10:46.720
these negative situations

10:46.720 --> 10:49.720
and place them into the despacho.

10:49.720 --> 10:51.720
It seems to me

10:51.720 --> 10:53.720
that the only way that we can solve

10:53.720 --> 10:55.720
the dilemma of this world

10:55.720 --> 10:57.720
is by honestly facing these problems

10:57.720 --> 11:00.720
and in that moment of insight

11:00.720 --> 11:02.720
burn away the negativity

11:02.720 --> 11:04.720
and reshape the world.

11:04.720 --> 11:07.720
Maybe that is what the prophecy of Pachacuti

11:07.720 --> 11:09.720
is really all about.

11:09.720 --> 11:11.720
Here at the end of the age,

11:11.720 --> 11:13.720
we finally have the opportunity

11:13.720 --> 11:16.720
to understand not only what we have done,

11:16.720 --> 11:24.960
but who we really are.

11:24.960 --> 11:26.960
Climate change is proceeding

11:26.960 --> 11:27.960
at a very rapid rate.

11:27.960 --> 11:29.960
We're about 10 or 15 years

11:29.960 --> 11:31.960
into a period of sudden climate change

11:31.960 --> 11:33.960
for the last 40 to 50 years.

11:33.960 --> 11:35.960
Right now,

11:35.960 --> 11:37.960
there has just been a big report

11:37.960 --> 11:39.960
published by the UN

11:39.960 --> 11:41.960
that was created by a committee

11:41.960 --> 11:43.960
that said that this was all very serious

11:43.960 --> 11:45.960
but omitted the most serious parts

11:45.960 --> 11:46.960
because they were too

11:46.960 --> 11:48.960
quote-unquote controversial.

11:48.960 --> 11:50.960
The truth is this.

11:50.960 --> 11:53.960
The Greenland ice cover

11:53.960 --> 11:55.960
is becoming unstable fast.

11:55.960 --> 11:57.960
In fact,

11:57.960 --> 11:59.960
Greenland's entire ice cover

11:59.960 --> 12:00.960
could collapse,

12:00.960 --> 12:02.960
especially in the southern half of the country,

12:02.960 --> 12:04.960
at any time,

12:04.960 --> 12:07.960
causing an immediate sea level rise

12:07.960 --> 12:09.960
of between one and a half

12:09.960 --> 12:11.960
and two feet worldwide,

12:11.960 --> 12:15.960
causing trillions of dollars of damage

12:15.960 --> 12:17.960
that cannot be repaired.

12:18.960 --> 12:20.960
And will not be repaired.

12:20.960 --> 12:22.960
The destruction of New Orleans

12:22.960 --> 12:25.960
is justifiably blamed

12:25.960 --> 12:28.960
on the most incompetent political administration

12:28.960 --> 12:30.960
in the history of the United States.

12:30.960 --> 12:31.960
Yes.

12:31.960 --> 12:32.960
But it is also,

12:32.960 --> 12:33.960
it happened

12:33.960 --> 12:34.960
because,

12:34.960 --> 12:35.960
for another reason,

12:35.960 --> 12:37.960
the stratosphere is getting much colder

12:37.960 --> 12:39.960
because global warming gases

12:39.960 --> 12:41.960
are holding heat

12:41.960 --> 12:43.960
closer to the surface in the troposphere.

12:43.960 --> 12:45.960
So heat's not radiating.

12:45.960 --> 12:46.960
Therefore, the difference

12:46.960 --> 12:47.960
between the lower atmosphere

12:47.960 --> 12:48.960
and the upper atmosphere

12:48.960 --> 12:50.960
is getting much larger.

12:50.960 --> 12:52.960
This means that when storms bulge up

12:52.960 --> 12:54.960
into the upper atmosphere,

12:54.960 --> 12:57.960
the energy exchange

12:57.960 --> 12:59.960
is much more intense.

12:59.960 --> 13:01.960
So when a hurricane gets large enough to do that,

13:01.960 --> 13:02.960
then suddenly,

13:02.960 --> 13:04.960
it grows into a monster

13:04.960 --> 13:06.960
unlike things we've seen before.

13:06.960 --> 13:07.960
This can happen at any time

13:07.960 --> 13:09.960
with any type of storm

13:09.960 --> 13:11.960
anywhere on this planet now.

13:11.960 --> 13:13.960
And it does happen

13:13.960 --> 13:14.960
all the time.

13:14.960 --> 13:15.960
That is out of this

13:15.960 --> 13:17.960
sufficiency of chaos,

13:17.960 --> 13:18.960
of cataclysm,

13:18.960 --> 13:19.960
of breakdown,

13:19.960 --> 13:20.960
the worst of which,

13:20.960 --> 13:21.960
of course,

13:21.960 --> 13:22.960
is the climate,

13:22.960 --> 13:23.960
the ecological breakdown.

13:23.960 --> 13:27.960
People feel instinctively

13:27.960 --> 13:31.960
the impetus from the Earth herself

13:31.960 --> 13:32.960
to wake up

13:32.960 --> 13:34.960
and to make a difference.

13:34.960 --> 13:37.960
We have come to the state

13:37.960 --> 13:40.960
where we do not trust politicians,

13:40.960 --> 13:42.960
where we do not trust medicine,

13:42.960 --> 13:44.960
where we do not trust the media

13:44.960 --> 13:45.960
because we know

13:45.960 --> 13:46.960
that what we're getting

13:46.960 --> 13:47.960
is not news,

13:47.960 --> 13:49.960
but opinion pieces.

13:49.960 --> 13:50.960
So we live in the age

13:50.960 --> 13:52.960
of the great lie.

13:52.960 --> 13:54.960
We are in climate trouble.

13:54.960 --> 13:55.960
And people who say,

13:55.960 --> 13:57.960
oh, well, look at the cold weather.

13:57.960 --> 13:58.960
So much for those

13:58.960 --> 13:59.960
global warming jerks.

13:59.960 --> 14:02.960
It's because of global warming

14:02.960 --> 14:05.960
that the weather has become so extreme.

14:05.960 --> 14:07.960
The United States government

14:07.960 --> 14:09.960
has made such an effort

14:09.960 --> 14:10.960
to prevent science

14:10.960 --> 14:12.960
from answering questions like that.

14:12.960 --> 14:15.960
We can't know the answer to that.

14:15.960 --> 14:17.960
But if it's happening,

14:17.960 --> 14:19.960
then starting this coming summer

14:19.960 --> 14:21.960
and for summers to come,

14:21.960 --> 14:22.960
we're going to see

14:22.960 --> 14:24.960
extraordinary temperature spikes

14:24.960 --> 14:25.960
on this planet,

14:25.960 --> 14:27.960
killing temperature spikes,

14:27.960 --> 14:29.960
followed by violent winter

14:29.960 --> 14:30.960
and autumn storms.

14:30.960 --> 14:31.960
You would think

14:31.960 --> 14:32.960
that there's a conspiracy,

14:32.960 --> 14:35.960
except that they're not smart enough

14:35.960 --> 14:37.960
to come together to have a conspiracy.

14:37.960 --> 14:39.960
It's a conspiracy of mediocrity.

14:39.960 --> 14:40.960
Right now,

14:40.960 --> 14:42.960
there are between 5 and 6 billion

14:42.960 --> 14:43.960
human beings on Earth.

14:43.960 --> 14:44.960
In 200 years,

14:44.960 --> 14:46.960
there's going to be 1 billion,

14:46.960 --> 14:47.960
or maybe less,

14:47.960 --> 14:48.960
on Earth.

14:48.960 --> 14:50.960
And during this dieback,

14:50.960 --> 14:52.960
the human species is going to suffer

14:52.960 --> 14:54.960
unimaginable torment

14:54.960 --> 14:57.960
of a kind that is completely unlike

14:57.960 --> 14:59.960
anything we have known

14:59.960 --> 15:01.960
in recorded history.

15:01.960 --> 15:03.960
All these things seem to be pointing

15:03.960 --> 15:06.960
towards a possible extinction event.

15:06.960 --> 15:08.960
But I think what is probably

15:08.960 --> 15:10.960
more likely going on

15:10.960 --> 15:13.960
is that we are in the grip

15:13.960 --> 15:15.960
of a gigantic change.

15:15.960 --> 15:17.960
And in that change,

15:17.960 --> 15:19.960
something is dying.

15:19.960 --> 15:21.960
The old ways are dying.

15:21.960 --> 15:22.960
There will, however,

15:22.960 --> 15:24.960
also be continuing.

15:24.960 --> 15:26.960
The human spirit,

15:26.960 --> 15:28.960
purified by this event.

15:28.960 --> 15:30.960
And I assure you,

15:30.960 --> 15:31.960
it's not our fault.

15:31.960 --> 15:33.960
It's nobody's fault.

15:33.960 --> 15:36.960
It is simply the way nature is.

15:36.960 --> 15:38.960
When nature unfolds

15:38.960 --> 15:41.960
in the life of a conscious species,

15:41.960 --> 15:42.960
at this stage,

15:42.960 --> 15:45.960
it can be very, very hard.

15:45.960 --> 15:46.960
All of our gods,

15:46.960 --> 15:47.960
all of our beliefs,

15:47.960 --> 15:49.960
all of our prayers,

15:49.960 --> 15:50.960
all of that,

15:50.960 --> 15:52.960
by the end of this event,

15:52.960 --> 15:54.960
will have been left behind.

15:54.960 --> 16:00.240
The media has gone mythic

16:00.240 --> 16:03.240
without telling a deeper story.

16:03.240 --> 16:06.580
So what you get on the media

16:06.580 --> 16:08.580
is blips.

16:08.580 --> 16:10.580
Not the hero's journey.

16:10.580 --> 16:12.580
Not the great tales of death

16:12.580 --> 16:13.580
and resurrection,

16:13.580 --> 16:14.580
of renewal,

16:14.580 --> 16:16.580
or otherwise big years.

16:16.580 --> 16:18.580
Except sometimes there's blips.

16:18.580 --> 16:19.580
This country,

16:19.580 --> 16:20.580
the United States,

16:20.580 --> 16:22.580
will not be a federal republic

16:22.580 --> 16:23.580
in a hundred years,

16:23.580 --> 16:24.580
I don't think.

16:24.580 --> 16:25.580
I think that the pressures

16:25.580 --> 16:27.580
that are building on it now

16:27.580 --> 16:28.580
are incredible.

16:28.580 --> 16:30.580
There is a sort of Damocles

16:30.580 --> 16:32.580
hanging over our heads

16:32.580 --> 16:33.580
as a species.

16:33.580 --> 16:35.580
The cord that holds it

16:35.580 --> 16:37.580
is about to snap.

16:37.580 --> 16:39.580
There's obviously

16:39.580 --> 16:41.580
huge amounts of negative

16:41.580 --> 16:43.580
indicators, you know,

16:43.580 --> 16:45.580
that we're at this crucial tipping point.

16:45.580 --> 16:46.580
We really might not,

16:46.580 --> 16:47.580
you know,

16:47.580 --> 16:49.580
survive in larger societies

16:49.580 --> 16:50.580
or even as a species

16:50.580 --> 16:51.580
if we keep continuing down

16:51.580 --> 16:52.580
the path that we're on.

16:52.580 --> 16:53.580
So, you know,

16:53.580 --> 16:55.580
we're looking at 25% of species

16:55.580 --> 16:57.580
potentially extinct in 30 years.

16:57.580 --> 16:58.580
No more coral reefs,

16:58.580 --> 16:59.580
no more honeybees,

16:59.580 --> 17:00.580
no more butterflies,

17:00.580 --> 17:01.580
no more amphibians.

17:01.580 --> 17:02.580
And at that point,

17:02.580 --> 17:03.580
like the whole mesh

17:03.580 --> 17:04.580
of the web of life

17:04.580 --> 17:05.580
that supports

17:05.580 --> 17:06.580
large mammalian life

17:06.580 --> 17:07.580
may not be there anymore.

17:07.580 --> 17:08.580
So, you know,

17:08.580 --> 17:09.580
we definitely are at

17:09.580 --> 17:10.580
a critical juncture

17:10.580 --> 17:11.580
where we have this window

17:11.580 --> 17:12.580
of opportunity

17:12.580 --> 17:14.580
to make a really radical

17:14.580 --> 17:16.580
and fast transition

17:16.580 --> 17:18.580
to a different social paradigm

17:18.580 --> 17:19.580
and a different

17:19.580 --> 17:21.580
sustainable infrastructure.

17:21.580 --> 17:24.580
We have lost the hearth

17:24.580 --> 17:25.580
where the grandparents

17:25.580 --> 17:26.580
told the stories

17:26.580 --> 17:27.580
of the wise ones.

17:27.580 --> 17:28.580
And we've replaced the hearth

17:28.580 --> 17:30.580
with a television set.

17:30.580 --> 17:31.580
And the problem is

17:31.580 --> 17:33.580
no hearth, no heart.

17:33.580 --> 17:35.580
No sense of continuity.

17:35.580 --> 17:36.580
No sense of the great

17:36.580 --> 17:37.580
chain of being,

17:37.580 --> 17:38.580
the great connectivity

17:38.580 --> 17:39.580
between the generations

17:39.580 --> 17:41.580
without which civilization perishes.

17:42.580 --> 17:43.580
I mean, I think

17:43.580 --> 17:45.580
we have this tendency

17:45.580 --> 17:48.580
to think, you know,

17:48.580 --> 17:50.580
to yearn for something

17:50.580 --> 17:52.580
to come from outside

17:52.580 --> 17:54.580
and save us.

17:54.580 --> 17:55.580
You know, it's like

17:55.580 --> 17:56.580
we've gotten ourselves

17:56.580 --> 17:58.580
into a heap of shit

17:58.580 --> 18:00.580
and we want daddy or mommy

18:00.580 --> 18:01.580
to come along,

18:01.580 --> 18:03.580
the benevolent, you know,

18:03.580 --> 18:04.580
super being,

18:04.580 --> 18:06.580
and save us

18:06.580 --> 18:08.580
from ourselves, you know.

18:08.580 --> 18:10.580
And so I think

18:10.580 --> 18:11.580
I'm not sure

18:11.580 --> 18:12.580
that's healthy

18:12.580 --> 18:14.580
because it prevents people,

18:14.580 --> 18:16.580
I mean, that's a natural tendency,

18:16.580 --> 18:18.580
but it prevents people

18:18.580 --> 18:20.580
from saying, no, you know,

18:20.580 --> 18:21.580
we got ourselves

18:21.580 --> 18:22.580
into this mess

18:22.580 --> 18:23.580
and nobody is going

18:23.580 --> 18:24.580
to get us out

18:24.580 --> 18:26.580
unless we do it.

18:26.580 --> 18:27.580
And the earth herself

18:27.580 --> 18:28.580
and her need

18:28.580 --> 18:30.580
and the world society,

18:30.580 --> 18:31.580
the world civilization

18:31.580 --> 18:34.580
is rising up from the depths

18:34.580 --> 18:36.580
and waking us up,

18:36.580 --> 18:37.580
sometimes with nightmares,

18:37.580 --> 18:39.580
sometimes with a vision

18:39.580 --> 18:40.580
of possibilities.

18:40.580 --> 18:41.580
Yeah, I think

18:41.580 --> 18:42.580
it's important

18:42.580 --> 18:43.580
to like enjoy

18:43.580 --> 18:44.580
all the contradictions

18:44.580 --> 18:45.580
and paradoxes

18:45.580 --> 18:46.580
and, you know,

18:46.580 --> 18:47.580
not try to like

18:47.580 --> 18:48.580
smooth them down,

18:48.580 --> 18:49.580
but actually really like

18:49.580 --> 18:50.580
almost celebrate

18:50.580 --> 18:52.580
the absolute absurdity

18:52.580 --> 18:54.580
of the situation we're in.

18:54.580 --> 18:55.580
I mean, the situation

18:55.580 --> 18:56.580
looks pretty grim

18:56.580 --> 18:57.580
and right now

18:57.580 --> 18:59.580
we have no,

18:59.580 --> 19:02.580
no escape hatch

19:02.580 --> 19:04.580
that's apparent, you know.

19:04.580 --> 19:06.580
We don't have the capability

19:06.580 --> 19:07.580
to leave the planet.

19:07.580 --> 19:09.580
We don't have, you know,

19:09.580 --> 19:10.580
even if that were desirable,

19:10.580 --> 19:12.580
and maybe it is,

19:12.580 --> 19:13.580
maybe it isn't,

19:13.580 --> 19:15.580
we don't, you know,

19:15.580 --> 19:17.580
there is nowhere to run to.

19:17.580 --> 19:18.580
We're kind of stuck

19:18.580 --> 19:19.580
where we are

19:19.580 --> 19:21.580
and so we've got to try

19:21.580 --> 19:23.580
to make that work.

19:23.580 --> 19:31.430
Don Humberto

19:31.430 --> 19:32.430
and Doña Bernadina

19:32.430 --> 19:34.430
continued to construct

19:34.430 --> 19:35.430
the despacho.

19:35.430 --> 19:42.600
One by one,

19:42.600 --> 19:44.600
I placed the negative energies

19:44.600 --> 19:45.600
of our times

19:45.600 --> 19:47.600
into the symbolic objects

19:47.600 --> 19:48.600
of the despacho.

19:48.600 --> 19:50.600
I blew my prayers

19:50.600 --> 19:51.600
into the coca leaves

19:51.600 --> 19:52.600
to dispel the war

19:52.600 --> 19:53.600
and suffering

19:53.600 --> 19:54.600
that is the story

19:54.600 --> 19:56.600
of this age just ending.

19:56.600 --> 19:57.600
I thought about

19:57.600 --> 20:00.170
what I had learned

20:00.170 --> 20:02.170
concerning the year 2012,

20:02.170 --> 20:04.170
about the other prophecies

20:04.170 --> 20:05.170
that also speak

20:05.170 --> 20:06.170
of the end of this age

20:06.170 --> 20:07.170
and the beginning

20:07.170 --> 20:09.170
of a new world.

20:09.170 --> 20:17.340
So as scholars

20:17.340 --> 20:19.340
had reconstructed

20:19.340 --> 20:22.340
the Mayan long count calendar

20:22.340 --> 20:25.340
and they had been able

20:25.340 --> 20:27.340
to correlate the Maya calendar

20:27.340 --> 20:28.340
with our own

20:28.340 --> 20:30.340
in order to come up

20:30.340 --> 20:32.340
with the correlation

20:32.340 --> 20:33.340
that the end

20:33.340 --> 20:35.340
of this 13 Bak'tun cycle

20:35.340 --> 20:37.340
did indeed fall on the year

20:37.340 --> 20:41.340
that we would call 2012.

20:41.340 --> 20:43.340
But scholars were predisposed

20:43.340 --> 20:45.340
to think that it was

20:45.340 --> 20:47.340
the beginning of this great cycle

20:47.340 --> 20:50.340
that had the most importance.

20:50.340 --> 20:52.340
Well, that's just not the way

20:52.340 --> 20:54.340
that the Mayan understanding

20:54.340 --> 20:56.340
of time works.

20:56.340 --> 20:58.340
The Maya look to the end

20:58.340 --> 21:00.340
of a cycle or process.

21:00.340 --> 21:02.340
For the meaningful event.

21:02.340 --> 21:04.340
I'm convinced that there is

21:04.340 --> 21:06.340
something going on here

21:06.340 --> 21:08.340
and that the Maya

21:08.340 --> 21:10.340
probably through their

21:10.340 --> 21:12.340
visionary capabilities

21:12.340 --> 21:13.340
using sacred plants

21:13.340 --> 21:15.340
and other shamanic techniques

21:15.340 --> 21:16.340
were able to look

21:16.340 --> 21:17.340
into the future

21:17.340 --> 21:19.340
and that's what governed

21:19.340 --> 21:21.340
the timing of their end point

21:21.340 --> 21:22.340
in their calendar.

21:22.340 --> 21:24.340
There is a prophecy

21:24.340 --> 21:25.340
that's involved

21:25.340 --> 21:27.340
in this 2012 end date

21:27.340 --> 21:29.340
but it's actually anchored

21:29.340 --> 21:30.340
to this empirical

21:30.340 --> 21:34.340
physical astronomical process

21:34.340 --> 21:35.340
that's happening

21:35.340 --> 21:37.340
and it is the galactic alignment.

21:37.340 --> 21:38.340
The December solstice sun

21:38.340 --> 21:42.340
is lining up with the Milky Way

21:42.340 --> 21:45.340
and the galactic equator

21:45.340 --> 21:46.340
is really the target

21:46.340 --> 21:48.340
of this galactic alignment.

21:48.340 --> 21:50.340
From the astrological point of view

21:50.340 --> 21:52.340
or the astronomic point of view

21:52.340 --> 21:56.340
it's a very significant date.

21:56.340 --> 21:57.340
There are certainly

21:57.340 --> 21:59.340
all these alignments

21:59.340 --> 22:03.340
and the center of the galaxy

22:03.340 --> 22:06.340
and the conjunction in Sagittarius

22:06.340 --> 22:09.340
and all these different things.

22:09.340 --> 22:12.340
There's no dispute about that.

22:12.340 --> 22:14.340
That's written into the way

22:14.340 --> 22:17.340
the clockwork works.

22:17.340 --> 22:19.340
Does it mean anything?

22:19.340 --> 22:21.340
I don't think we can say.

22:21.340 --> 22:23.340
The galactic equator

22:23.340 --> 22:26.340
is that midline of the Milky Way

22:26.340 --> 22:27.340
in the sky.

22:27.340 --> 22:28.340
It's kind of like the finish line

22:28.340 --> 22:30.340
in this process.

22:30.340 --> 22:34.340
And the analogy that we can make

22:34.340 --> 22:36.340
is to the Earth's equator.

22:36.340 --> 22:38.340
And the Earth's equator

22:38.340 --> 22:39.340
as we know

22:39.340 --> 22:40.340
divides the northern hemisphere

22:40.340 --> 22:42.340
from the southern hemisphere.

22:42.340 --> 22:45.340
And there are distinct field effects

22:45.340 --> 22:47.340
in these two different hemispheres.

22:47.340 --> 22:48.340
We know that hurricanes

22:48.340 --> 22:49.340
and tornadoes

22:49.340 --> 22:50.340
spin counterclockwise

22:50.340 --> 22:52.340
in the northern hemisphere

22:52.340 --> 22:53.340
and they spin clockwise

22:53.340 --> 22:55.340
in the southern hemisphere.

22:55.340 --> 22:57.340
So there is a field effect

22:57.340 --> 22:59.340
involved in these two different

22:59.340 --> 23:01.340
hemispheres of the Earth.

23:01.340 --> 23:03.340
Well, any spinning body

23:03.340 --> 23:05.340
will also exhibit

23:05.340 --> 23:07.340
these kinds of field effects.

23:07.340 --> 23:10.340
And our galaxy is a spinning body.

23:10.340 --> 23:13.340
And the galactic equator,

23:13.340 --> 23:14.340
the Milky Way,

23:14.340 --> 23:16.340
basically is the dividing line

23:16.340 --> 23:18.340
between the northern

23:18.340 --> 23:19.340
galactic hemisphere

23:19.340 --> 23:20.340
and the southern

23:20.340 --> 23:22.340
galactic hemisphere.

23:22.340 --> 23:25.340
Now our Sun has been pointed,

23:25.340 --> 23:26.340
you know, the Earth-Sun

23:26.340 --> 23:28.340
relationship has been pointed

23:28.340 --> 23:29.340
into the southern hemisphere

23:29.340 --> 23:30.340
of the galaxy

23:30.340 --> 23:33.340
for some 13,000 years.

23:33.340 --> 23:34.340
Now this alignment

23:34.340 --> 23:36.340
on the galactic equator

23:36.340 --> 23:38.340
is sort of like the null zone.

23:38.340 --> 23:42.340
It's as if we had a bathtub

23:42.340 --> 23:44.340
on the Earth's equator

23:44.340 --> 23:45.340
and we were trying to look

23:45.340 --> 23:46.340
to see which way the water

23:46.340 --> 23:48.340
was going to spin down.

23:48.340 --> 23:50.340
And we just, you know,

23:50.340 --> 23:51.340
it's the null zone

23:51.340 --> 23:53.340
in the process.

23:53.340 --> 23:55.340
So at some point

23:55.340 --> 23:56.340
we're going to begin

23:56.340 --> 24:00.340
to enter into the effects

24:00.340 --> 24:01.340
and our experience

24:01.340 --> 24:03.340
on this planet

24:03.340 --> 24:04.340
of being oriented

24:04.340 --> 24:05.340
to the northern

24:05.340 --> 24:07.340
galactic hemisphere.

24:07.340 --> 24:08.340
When this happens,

24:08.340 --> 24:09.340
it's hard to say.

24:09.340 --> 24:11.340
I would say there's probably

24:11.340 --> 24:15.340
a 36-year zone of alignment

24:15.340 --> 24:16.340
in which we approach

24:16.340 --> 24:18.340
perfect alignment

24:18.340 --> 24:19.340
and then it begins to wane,

24:19.340 --> 24:21.340
but then we're oriented

24:21.340 --> 24:23.340
towards the opposite side.

24:23.340 --> 24:24.340
There's an argument

24:24.340 --> 24:25.340
some people put forward

24:25.340 --> 24:27.340
that because the central point

24:27.340 --> 24:28.340
of this time window,

24:28.340 --> 24:29.340
this galactic alignment

24:29.340 --> 24:30.340
time window

24:30.340 --> 24:33.340
between 1980 and 2016

24:33.340 --> 24:35.340
is either 1998 or 1999,

24:35.340 --> 24:36.340
depending on which

24:36.340 --> 24:38.340
astronomy you speak to,

24:38.340 --> 24:40.340
but that means that

24:40.340 --> 24:41.340
these people say

24:41.340 --> 24:42.340
that the Maya were out

24:42.340 --> 24:45.340
by 13 or 14 years.

24:45.340 --> 24:47.340
But they do say

24:47.340 --> 24:48.340
that it's still quite

24:48.340 --> 24:49.340
an incredible achievement

24:49.340 --> 24:51.340
to see that far in the future

24:51.340 --> 24:52.340
with that kind of technology

24:52.340 --> 24:53.340
that they had.

24:53.340 --> 24:54.340
But even so,

24:54.340 --> 24:55.340
due to the information

24:55.340 --> 24:57.340
that I've discovered,

24:57.340 --> 24:58.340
that this information

24:58.340 --> 25:00.340
about not just about the process

25:00.340 --> 25:01.340
but about the year 2012

25:01.340 --> 25:02.340
in particular

25:02.340 --> 25:03.340
has been bubbling up

25:03.340 --> 25:04.340
from all kinds

25:04.340 --> 25:06.340
of different sources.

25:06.340 --> 25:08.340
And many of these sources

25:08.340 --> 25:09.340
are people that have had

25:09.340 --> 25:11.340
altered states of consciousness

25:11.340 --> 25:12.340
of various types

25:12.340 --> 25:14.340
like near-death experiences,

25:14.340 --> 25:16.340
out-of-body experiences,

25:16.340 --> 25:18.340
there's remote viewing,

25:18.340 --> 25:20.340
abduction,

25:20.340 --> 25:22.340
that is alien abduction,

25:22.340 --> 25:23.340
people taking sex

25:23.340 --> 25:25.340
with plants.

25:25.340 --> 25:26.340
So I started my 2012 quest

25:26.340 --> 25:28.340
with John Major Jenkins' book

25:28.340 --> 25:30.340
Maya Cosmogenesis 2012.

25:30.340 --> 25:31.340
And of all the things

25:31.340 --> 25:32.340
that John said in that book,

25:32.340 --> 25:33.340
one of the most interesting things

25:33.340 --> 25:35.340
is he describes this,

25:35.340 --> 25:37.340
the Maya conception

25:37.340 --> 25:38.340
that at 2012

25:38.340 --> 25:39.340
you have an opening

25:39.340 --> 25:40.340
of the center

25:40.340 --> 25:41.340
of the Milky Way galaxy.

25:41.340 --> 25:42.340
And a ladder emerges

25:42.340 --> 25:44.340
from the center.

25:44.340 --> 25:45.340
And out of this ladder

25:45.340 --> 25:47.340
emerges a serpent rope.

25:47.340 --> 25:48.340
And riding upon

25:48.340 --> 25:49.340
this serpent rope

25:49.340 --> 25:50.340
like he's surfing

25:50.340 --> 25:51.340
this serpent rope

25:51.340 --> 25:52.340
is an enlightened being

25:52.340 --> 25:53.340
who may possibly

25:53.340 --> 25:55.340
be Quetzalcoatl.

25:55.340 --> 25:56.340
Well, what John said

25:56.340 --> 25:57.340
which I found so interesting

25:57.340 --> 25:59.340
is he said that you can take out,

25:59.340 --> 26:00.340
he thought he could take out

26:00.340 --> 26:01.340
the archaic Maya term

26:01.340 --> 26:02.340
serpent rope

26:02.340 --> 26:04.340
and insert the modern word

26:04.340 --> 26:05.340
wormhole

26:05.340 --> 26:06.340
and you have what

26:06.340 --> 26:07.340
the Mayans are describing

26:07.340 --> 26:09.340
is going to happen in 2012.

26:09.340 --> 26:11.340
A stargate or a wormhole

26:11.340 --> 26:12.340
is going to open

26:12.340 --> 26:13.340
from the galactic center

26:13.340 --> 26:14.340
and out of this

26:14.340 --> 26:15.340
is going to emerge

26:15.340 --> 26:16.340
an enlightened being

26:16.340 --> 26:17.340
or a group

26:17.340 --> 26:19.340
of enlightened beings.

26:19.340 --> 26:20.340
And so if you follow

26:20.340 --> 26:21.340
the serpent rope

26:21.340 --> 26:22.340
stargate connection

26:22.340 --> 26:23.340
and you go back into

26:23.340 --> 26:25.340
various sacred traditions

26:25.340 --> 26:26.340
whether it be Egypt

26:26.340 --> 26:27.340
or Samaria

26:27.340 --> 26:28.340
or elsewhere,

26:28.340 --> 26:29.340
Tibet,

26:29.340 --> 26:31.340
you find enlightened beings

26:31.340 --> 26:32.340
that ride upon

26:32.340 --> 26:33.340
serpent ropes.

26:33.340 --> 26:35.340
And you see these same beings

26:35.340 --> 26:36.340
entering Earth

26:36.340 --> 26:37.340
through gateways.

26:37.340 --> 26:38.340
So I think we've got

26:38.340 --> 26:40.340
a real solid connection here

26:40.340 --> 26:41.340
that this serpent rope

26:41.340 --> 26:42.340
is in fact a stargate

26:42.340 --> 26:44.340
or a wormhole.

26:44.340 --> 26:45.340
And what I marvel at

26:45.340 --> 26:47.340
is the way that

26:47.340 --> 26:48.340
modern science

26:48.340 --> 26:50.340
and the ancient Maya concepts

26:50.340 --> 26:51.340
are starting to match.

26:51.340 --> 26:54.340
Researchers talk about

26:54.340 --> 26:55.340
the stargate or wormhole

26:55.340 --> 26:57.340
as the apex of our science

26:57.340 --> 26:59.340
and that if we can get a hold

26:59.340 --> 27:00.340
of this stargate science

27:00.340 --> 27:01.340
it will literally lead

27:01.340 --> 27:02.340
to our salvation.

27:02.340 --> 27:04.340
They use religious terms

27:04.340 --> 27:05.340
in that sense.

27:05.340 --> 27:06.340
And if we don't get

27:06.340 --> 27:07.340
this stargate connection

27:07.340 --> 27:09.340
then we have to start all over.

27:09.340 --> 27:10.340
And they talk about

27:10.340 --> 27:11.340
this is the most dangerous moment.

27:11.340 --> 27:12.340
This is the moment

27:12.340 --> 27:13.340
where we either get it

27:13.340 --> 27:15.340
or we don't.

27:15.340 --> 27:16.340
And so this is why

27:16.340 --> 27:17.340
this Maya conception

27:17.340 --> 27:19.340
is so important to me.

27:19.340 --> 27:21.340
Alchemists in Asia

27:21.340 --> 27:22.340
and ancient Europe

27:22.340 --> 27:24.340
had a 13 sign zodiac.

27:24.340 --> 27:25.340
This 13 sign zodiac

27:25.340 --> 27:27.340
was based on the lunar cycle

27:27.340 --> 27:31.340
28 day, months, 13 months a year

27:31.340 --> 27:33.340
as opposed to our 12 month

27:33.340 --> 27:35.340
calendar that we have now.

27:35.340 --> 27:37.340
So I guess this begs the question

27:37.340 --> 27:39.340
if we have 12 months

27:39.340 --> 27:40.340
and we have 12 signs

27:40.340 --> 27:42.340
in the zodiac

27:42.340 --> 27:43.340
what was the name

27:43.340 --> 27:44.340
of this 13th month

27:44.340 --> 27:47.340
or this 13th sign?

27:47.340 --> 27:48.340
This is where the answer

27:48.340 --> 27:50.340
gets really fascinating.

27:50.340 --> 27:54.340
Because the 13th sign of the zodiac

27:54.340 --> 27:56.340
was called Ophiuchus.

27:56.340 --> 27:58.340
It's a constellation in the sky.

27:58.340 --> 27:59.340
And it lies between

27:59.340 --> 28:00.340
the constellations

28:00.340 --> 28:02.340
of Sagittarius and Scorpio.

28:02.340 --> 28:04.340
What is really fascinating

28:04.340 --> 28:05.340
about this is that

28:05.340 --> 28:06.340
is exactly where the center

28:06.340 --> 28:08.340
of the galaxy lies.

28:08.340 --> 28:09.340
So Ophiuchus

28:09.340 --> 28:10.340
or the serpent holder

28:10.340 --> 28:13.340
is the center of the galaxy.

28:13.340 --> 28:14.340
It is the secret sign

28:14.340 --> 28:16.340
of the zodiac.

28:16.340 --> 28:17.340
It's the sign that governs

28:17.340 --> 28:19.340
all the other signs.

28:19.340 --> 28:20.340
As Jesus governed

28:20.340 --> 28:22.340
the 12 apostles,

28:22.340 --> 28:23.340
just as King Arthur governed

28:23.340 --> 28:25.340
the 12 knights of the round table,

28:25.340 --> 28:27.340
so too does Ophiuchus

28:27.340 --> 28:28.340
or the serpent holder

28:28.340 --> 28:30.340
govern the other 12 signs

28:30.340 --> 28:31.340
of the zodiac.

28:31.340 --> 28:33.340
The archetype of Quetzalcoatl

28:33.340 --> 28:35.340
is integration.

28:35.340 --> 28:37.340
So it's not about rejecting

28:37.340 --> 28:39.340
science and technology

28:39.340 --> 28:41.340
for intuition and the psychic.

28:41.340 --> 28:44.340
It's about really bringing

28:44.340 --> 28:45.340
those things together.

28:45.340 --> 28:47.340
And so I think to get through

28:47.340 --> 28:48.340
this transition

28:48.340 --> 28:49.340
we're going to have to

28:49.340 --> 28:52.340
take the technical capacities

28:52.340 --> 28:54.340
of the Western mindset

28:54.340 --> 28:55.340
that have been kind of

28:55.340 --> 28:56.340
almost overdeveloped

28:56.340 --> 28:58.340
but reorient them to dealing

28:58.340 --> 29:00.340
with the planetary situation.

29:00.340 --> 29:01.340
So the intelligence that goes

29:01.340 --> 29:02.340
into making an iPod

29:02.340 --> 29:03.340
or a cell phone

29:03.340 --> 29:04.340
or a high-definition

29:04.340 --> 29:06.340
digital video camera,

29:06.340 --> 29:07.340
take that kind of

29:07.340 --> 29:09.340
technical brilliance

29:09.340 --> 29:11.340
but use it to preserve species.

29:11.340 --> 29:12.340
How do you actually create

29:12.340 --> 29:13.340
a wilderness corridor

29:13.340 --> 29:14.340
that's going to protect

29:14.340 --> 29:16.340
the handful of monarch butterflies

29:16.340 --> 29:18.340
that are still fluttering around?

29:18.340 --> 29:21.340
How do you restore wetlands

29:21.340 --> 29:22.340
and coral reefs

29:22.340 --> 29:24.340
and forest areas?

29:24.340 --> 29:25.340
So it's really,

29:25.340 --> 29:26.340
there has to be a,

29:26.340 --> 29:27.340
now that we've created

29:27.340 --> 29:29.340
the knowledge technology

29:29.340 --> 29:31.340
and the information age stuff,

29:31.340 --> 29:33.340
we now need to go to another level

29:33.340 --> 29:35.340
and use a kind of depth perspective

29:35.340 --> 29:37.340
to where do we actually fit

29:37.340 --> 29:38.340
our technical capacities

29:38.340 --> 29:40.340
into the planetary biospheres

29:40.340 --> 29:42.340
that we hopefully

29:42.340 --> 29:44.340
not only just sustain ourselves

29:44.340 --> 29:46.340
but ultimately thrive and flourish

29:46.340 --> 29:47.340
as aspects

29:47.340 --> 29:49.340
of the planetary ecology.

29:49.340 --> 29:51.340
Well I believe that we are

29:51.340 --> 29:53.340
in the most interesting time

29:53.340 --> 29:54.340
in human history.

29:54.340 --> 29:55.340
I mean other times

29:55.340 --> 29:56.340
thought they were it,

29:56.340 --> 29:57.340
they were wrong,

29:57.340 --> 29:58.340
this is it.

29:58.340 --> 29:59.340
You know,

29:59.340 --> 30:00.340
what we do in the next

30:00.340 --> 30:03.340
5, 10, 20, 30, 40 years

30:03.340 --> 30:04.340
will make the difference

30:04.340 --> 30:06.340
between whether we grow

30:06.340 --> 30:08.340
as a planetary civilization

30:08.340 --> 30:09.340
or whether we just

30:09.340 --> 30:11.340
are at the end of it.

30:11.340 --> 30:12.340
I think we're seeing

30:12.340 --> 30:13.340
examples of this

30:13.340 --> 30:15.340
as the systems of nature

30:15.340 --> 30:16.340
break down around us.

30:16.340 --> 30:17.340
I mean,

30:17.340 --> 30:19.340
unprecedented changes

30:19.340 --> 30:20.340
in weather patterns,

30:20.340 --> 30:21.340
hurricanes, earthquakes,

30:21.340 --> 30:23.340
fires,

30:23.340 --> 30:26.340
and entire cities

30:26.340 --> 30:27.340
are decimated

30:27.340 --> 30:28.340
and we have to draw

30:28.340 --> 30:29.340
upon the strengths

30:29.340 --> 30:30.340
of one another.

30:30.340 --> 30:31.340
It's teaching us

30:31.340 --> 30:32.340
about cooperation

30:32.340 --> 30:33.340
and it's about a cooperation

30:33.340 --> 30:34.340
that transcends

30:34.340 --> 30:35.340
heritage and bloodlines

30:35.340 --> 30:37.340
and borders,

30:37.340 --> 30:38.340
income levels,

30:38.340 --> 30:39.340
religion,

30:39.340 --> 30:48.350
the color of our skin.

30:48.350 --> 30:50.350
The despacho ceremony

30:50.350 --> 30:51.350
provides us with the power

30:51.350 --> 30:52.350
to change the future

30:52.350 --> 30:54.350
by releasing the past.

30:54.350 --> 30:56.350
As the objects in the despacho

30:56.350 --> 30:57.350
are gathered together

30:57.350 --> 30:59.350
and placed in the mandala,

30:59.350 --> 31:01.350
they are blessed by Don Umberto.

31:01.350 --> 31:02.350
To the caro,

31:02.350 --> 31:08.260
time seems to stand still.

31:08.260 --> 31:10.260
They have no cars,

31:10.260 --> 31:11.260
no televisions.

31:11.260 --> 31:14.260
Their lives are simple and quiet.

31:14.260 --> 31:15.260
It has been this way

31:15.260 --> 31:17.260
for thousands of years.

31:17.260 --> 31:19.260
They are also comfortable

31:19.260 --> 31:21.260
living within each moment

31:21.260 --> 31:22.260
and this allows them

31:22.260 --> 31:24.260
to be able to see the future

31:24.260 --> 31:26.260
and understand the past.

31:26.260 --> 31:27.260
Once,

31:27.260 --> 31:28.260
all cultures on earth

31:28.260 --> 31:29.260
had this capacity.

31:29.260 --> 31:30.260
Even our own western culture

31:30.260 --> 31:31.260
has its prophets and prophecies.

31:31.260 --> 31:32.260
In the books of Ezekiel

31:32.260 --> 31:33.260
and Revelations,

31:33.260 --> 31:34.260
the prophets speak of an angel

31:34.260 --> 31:35.260
with four faces.

31:35.260 --> 31:36.260
The face of a lion,

31:36.260 --> 31:40.240
an eagle,

31:40.240 --> 31:41.240
a bull

31:41.240 --> 31:42.240
and a man.

31:42.240 --> 31:43.240
These four symbols

31:43.240 --> 31:44.240
correspond

31:44.240 --> 31:45.240
to the four fixed signs

31:45.240 --> 31:46.240
of the zodiac.

31:46.240 --> 31:47.240
Leo,

31:47.240 --> 31:48.240
Scorpio,

31:48.240 --> 31:49.240
Taurus,

31:49.240 --> 31:50.240
Saturn,

31:50.240 --> 31:51.240
Jupiter,

31:51.240 --> 31:52.240
Saturn,

31:52.240 --> 31:53.240
Saturn,

31:53.240 --> 31:54.240
Saturn,

31:54.240 --> 31:55.240
Saturn,

31:55.240 --> 31:56.240
Saturn,

31:56.240 --> 31:57.240
Saturn,

31:57.240 --> 31:58.240
Saturn,

31:58.240 --> 31:59.240
Saturn,

31:59.240 --> 32:01.240
and Aquarius.

32:01.240 --> 32:03.240
On an esoteric level,

32:03.240 --> 32:04.240
it is very possible

32:04.240 --> 32:05.240
that the prophets of the Bible

32:05.240 --> 32:06.240
were telling us

32:06.240 --> 32:07.240
that the great year

32:07.240 --> 32:08.240
of the zodiac,

32:08.240 --> 32:11.240
which is almost 26,000 years long,

32:11.240 --> 32:12.240
could be broken up

32:12.240 --> 32:14.240
into four seasons

32:14.240 --> 32:18.240
of nearly 6,500 years each.

32:18.240 --> 32:20.240
History shows us

32:20.240 --> 32:21.240
that each time we enter

32:21.240 --> 32:23.240
one of these four fixed signs

32:23.240 --> 32:24.240
or seasons,

32:24.240 --> 32:25.240
great changes occur

32:25.240 --> 32:27.240
on our planet.

32:27.240 --> 32:28.240
Astrologers tell us

32:28.240 --> 32:29.240
that we are now entering

32:29.240 --> 32:30.240
the sign of Aquarius.

32:30.240 --> 32:31.240
The Hindu cycle

32:31.240 --> 32:37.870
of the yugas

32:37.870 --> 32:38.870
and Hindu cosmology

32:38.870 --> 32:39.870
is a very,

32:39.870 --> 32:40.870
very important reflection

32:40.870 --> 32:41.870
of the same insights

32:41.870 --> 32:42.870
that the Maya

32:42.870 --> 32:43.870
had tuned into.

32:43.870 --> 32:44.870
The Maya have

32:44.870 --> 32:45.870
an idea

32:45.870 --> 32:46.870
of world ages

32:46.870 --> 32:47.870
and they believe

32:47.870 --> 32:48.870
there was a succession

32:48.870 --> 32:49.870
of five world ages

32:49.870 --> 32:50.870
and each one

32:50.870 --> 32:51.870
of these

32:51.870 --> 32:52.870
was 13 Bhaktuns,

32:52.870 --> 32:53.870
which is a period

32:53.870 --> 32:54.870
of some 30,000 years

32:54.870 --> 32:55.870
ago.

32:55.870 --> 32:56.870
The Maya

32:56.870 --> 32:57.870
believe

32:57.870 --> 32:58.870
there was

32:58.870 --> 32:59.870
a succession

32:59.870 --> 33:00.870
of five world ages

33:00.870 --> 33:01.870
and each one

33:01.870 --> 33:02.870
of these

33:02.870 --> 33:03.870
is a period

33:03.870 --> 33:06.870
of some 5,125 years.

33:06.870 --> 33:07.870
So there's

33:07.870 --> 33:09.870
five world ages

33:09.870 --> 33:11.870
and if you multiply

33:11.870 --> 33:12.870
these together

33:12.870 --> 33:13.870
you get a great cycle

33:13.870 --> 33:14.870
of 26,000 years,

33:14.870 --> 33:16.870
which is procession.

33:16.870 --> 33:18.870
In the Maya concept

33:18.870 --> 33:19.870
of the yugas

33:19.870 --> 33:20.870
they believe

33:20.870 --> 33:21.870
that there was

33:21.870 --> 33:22.870
a golden age

33:22.870 --> 33:23.870
many thousands

33:23.870 --> 33:24.870
of years ago.

33:24.870 --> 33:25.870
That is when

33:25.870 --> 33:26.870
human beings

33:26.870 --> 33:27.870
were experiencing

33:27.870 --> 33:29.870
the greatest connection

33:29.870 --> 33:32.870
with the source.

33:32.870 --> 33:33.870
But then there was

33:33.870 --> 33:34.870
a process

33:34.870 --> 33:37.870
of diminishment

33:37.870 --> 33:39.870
and darkness

33:39.870 --> 33:40.870
entered into

33:40.870 --> 33:42.870
human consciousness.

33:42.870 --> 33:43.870
So we moved

33:43.870 --> 33:44.870
from the golden age

33:44.870 --> 33:45.870
to the silver age

33:45.870 --> 33:46.870
in which there was

33:46.870 --> 33:48.870
greater spiritual darkness

33:48.870 --> 33:49.870
and then into

33:49.870 --> 33:50.870
the bronze age

33:50.870 --> 33:51.870
in which there was

33:51.870 --> 33:53.870
even greater spiritual darkness.

33:53.870 --> 33:54.870
Finally,

33:54.870 --> 33:55.870
to the iron age

33:55.870 --> 33:57.870
in which darkness

33:57.870 --> 33:59.870
had completely occluded

33:59.870 --> 34:01.870
the spiritual light.

34:01.870 --> 34:02.870
And so

34:02.870 --> 34:04.870
in the Hindu

34:04.870 --> 34:06.870
yuga doctrine

34:06.870 --> 34:07.870
that is where

34:07.870 --> 34:08.870
we are right now.

34:08.870 --> 34:09.870
The long count calendar

34:09.870 --> 34:10.870
was lost

34:10.870 --> 34:14.870
before the Spanish arrived.

34:14.870 --> 34:15.870
The long count calendar

34:15.870 --> 34:16.870
was out of use.

34:16.870 --> 34:17.870
So many of the

34:17.870 --> 34:18.870
indigenous people

34:18.870 --> 34:19.870
are sort of

34:19.870 --> 34:20.870
affronted

34:20.870 --> 34:21.870
that western people

34:21.870 --> 34:22.870
are actually

34:22.870 --> 34:23.870
talking about

34:23.870 --> 34:25.870
their knowledge.

34:25.870 --> 34:26.870
But the fact is

34:26.870 --> 34:27.870
that without

34:27.870 --> 34:28.870
those Mayanists

34:28.870 --> 34:29.870
who were

34:29.870 --> 34:31.870
non-indigenous people

34:31.870 --> 34:32.870
that non-indigenous

34:32.870 --> 34:33.870
knowledge

34:33.870 --> 34:34.870
would have remained

34:34.870 --> 34:35.870
buried

34:35.870 --> 34:36.870
and nobody would know

34:36.870 --> 34:37.870
about it.

34:37.870 --> 34:38.870
This is really

34:38.870 --> 34:39.870
just an insight

34:39.870 --> 34:40.870
into the cyclic nature

34:40.870 --> 34:41.870
of all processes

34:41.870 --> 34:42.870
that all cycles

34:42.870 --> 34:43.870
in nature undergo.

34:43.870 --> 34:44.870
We see it

34:44.870 --> 34:45.870
in the moon cycle.

34:45.870 --> 34:46.870
We see it

34:46.870 --> 34:47.870
in the year cycle.

34:47.870 --> 34:48.870
We see it

34:48.870 --> 34:49.870
in the day cycle.

34:49.870 --> 34:50.870
And the thing is

34:50.870 --> 34:51.870
that there is

34:51.870 --> 34:52.870
a point of maximum

34:52.870 --> 34:53.870
darkness

34:53.870 --> 34:54.870
but then we turn

34:54.870 --> 34:55.870
the corner

34:55.870 --> 34:56.870
and we begin

34:56.870 --> 34:57.870
the ascent

34:57.870 --> 34:58.870
in which

34:58.870 --> 34:59.870
we reverse

34:59.870 --> 35:00.870
the process

35:00.870 --> 35:01.870
and there is

35:01.870 --> 35:02.870
a progressive

35:02.870 --> 35:03.870
veiling

35:03.870 --> 35:04.870
of the veils

35:04.870 --> 35:05.870
that have

35:05.870 --> 35:06.870
occluded

35:06.870 --> 35:07.870
human consciousness

35:07.870 --> 35:08.870
from having

35:08.870 --> 35:09.870
a direct connection

35:09.870 --> 35:10.870
with the source,

35:10.870 --> 35:11.870
the infinite light.

35:11.870 --> 35:12.870
When I first began

35:12.870 --> 35:13.870
looking into

35:13.870 --> 35:14.870
the Cross of Hende

35:14.870 --> 35:15.870
many years ago

35:15.870 --> 35:16.870
I realized

35:16.870 --> 35:17.870
that Fulcinelli

35:17.870 --> 35:18.870
was right

35:18.870 --> 35:19.870
when he was telling us

35:19.870 --> 35:20.870
that the Cross of Hende

35:20.870 --> 35:21.870
is describing

35:21.870 --> 35:22.870
the events

35:22.870 --> 35:23.870
that will lead up

35:23.870 --> 35:24.870
to the end of time,

35:24.870 --> 35:25.870
to the end of this age.

35:25.870 --> 35:26.870
Not the end

35:26.870 --> 35:27.870
of the world

35:27.870 --> 35:28.870
but the end

35:28.870 --> 35:29.870
of this age

35:29.870 --> 35:30.870
or the end of time

35:30.870 --> 35:31.870
as we know it.

35:31.870 --> 35:32.870
I realized

35:32.870 --> 35:33.870
from the pedestal

35:33.870 --> 35:34.870
and from the symbols

35:34.870 --> 35:36.870
on the Cross of Hende

35:36.870 --> 35:37.870
pretty much

35:37.870 --> 35:38.870
the exact nature

35:38.870 --> 35:39.870
of what was about

35:39.870 --> 35:40.870
to happen

35:40.870 --> 35:41.870
at the end of time.

35:41.870 --> 35:42.870
But one of the things

35:42.870 --> 35:43.870
that baffled me

35:43.870 --> 35:45.870
throughout this entire thing

35:45.870 --> 35:47.870
was the Latin inscription

35:47.870 --> 35:48.870
on the Cross.

35:48.870 --> 35:49.870
Fulcinelli tells us

35:49.870 --> 35:50.870
in his chapter

35:50.870 --> 35:51.870
on the Cross of Hende

35:51.870 --> 35:52.870
from his book

35:52.870 --> 35:53.870
Mystery of the Cathedrals

35:53.870 --> 35:55.870
that this inscription

35:55.870 --> 35:56.870
is describing

35:56.870 --> 35:57.870
a place

35:57.870 --> 35:58.870
where man

35:58.870 --> 35:59.870
can find refuge

35:59.870 --> 36:00.870
from the catastrophe

36:00.870 --> 36:01.870
that's going to occur

36:01.870 --> 36:02.870
at the end of time.

36:02.870 --> 36:03.870
He says

36:03.870 --> 36:04.870
that a country

36:04.870 --> 36:05.870
is being named.

36:05.870 --> 36:07.870
From my perspective

36:07.870 --> 36:08.870
spending time

36:08.870 --> 36:09.870
in the ancient

36:09.870 --> 36:10.870
indigenous cultures

36:10.870 --> 36:12.870
and from the traditions

36:12.870 --> 36:13.870
that I've studied

36:13.870 --> 36:14.870
in the texts

36:14.870 --> 36:15.870
and on the temple walls,

36:15.870 --> 36:17.870
every day of life

36:17.870 --> 36:19.870
is the opportunity

36:19.870 --> 36:21.870
for us to deal

36:21.870 --> 36:22.870
with whatever it is

36:22.870 --> 36:23.870
that life naturally

36:23.870 --> 36:25.870
brings our way.

36:25.870 --> 36:27.870
The 2012 alignment

36:27.870 --> 36:30.870
is when we have reached

36:30.870 --> 36:31.870
the maximum

36:31.870 --> 36:33.870
point of darkness.

36:33.870 --> 36:35.870
It's like galactic midnight.

36:35.870 --> 36:36.870
And I also think

36:36.870 --> 36:37.870
that this is

36:37.870 --> 36:40.870
the deep insight

36:40.870 --> 36:42.870
encoded into the Yuga doctrine.

36:42.870 --> 36:43.870
Basically when I deciphered

36:43.870 --> 36:44.870
the Latin inscription

36:44.870 --> 36:45.870
on the Cross of Hende

36:45.870 --> 36:47.870
I discovered two messages.

36:47.870 --> 36:48.870
Two messages

36:48.870 --> 36:49.870
that are very similar

36:49.870 --> 36:50.870
to each other.

36:50.870 --> 36:51.870
The first message was

36:51.870 --> 36:54.870
Inca Cave, Cusco, Peru.

36:54.870 --> 36:56.870
The second message was

36:56.870 --> 36:58.870
Hail to the Cross of Urcos.

36:58.870 --> 36:59.870
When I looked up

36:59.870 --> 37:01.870
the word Urcos

37:01.870 --> 37:02.870
in a world atlas

37:02.870 --> 37:03.870
I discovered

37:03.870 --> 37:04.870
that there was a town

37:04.870 --> 37:05.870
called Urcos

37:05.870 --> 37:06.870
20 miles south

37:06.870 --> 37:08.870
of Cusco, Peru.

37:08.870 --> 37:10.870
This seemed beyond coincidence

37:10.870 --> 37:12.870
and so my interest in Peru

37:12.870 --> 37:13.870
greatly increased

37:13.870 --> 37:14.870
and I began reading

37:14.870 --> 37:15.870
everything I could

37:15.870 --> 37:17.870
about the country of Peru.

37:17.870 --> 37:18.870
It's very clear

37:18.870 --> 37:19.870
that the Yugas

37:19.870 --> 37:20.870
are directly related

37:20.870 --> 37:21.870
to procession.

37:21.870 --> 37:23.870
So we can divide procession

37:23.870 --> 37:24.870
into two halves.

37:24.870 --> 37:26.870
The descending half

37:26.870 --> 37:28.870
and the ascending half.

37:28.870 --> 37:30.870
And with this information

37:30.870 --> 37:33.870
and with the Mayan insights

37:33.870 --> 37:36.870
into this world age cycle

37:36.870 --> 37:39.870
it does appear that 2012

37:39.870 --> 37:41.870
would be the end of

37:41.870 --> 37:43.870
the descending Yuga cycle

37:43.870 --> 37:46.870
in the Hindu chronology.

37:46.870 --> 37:48.870
I talked to the Peruvian

37:48.870 --> 37:50.870
anthropologist Juan del Prado

37:50.870 --> 37:52.870
who told me that there was

37:52.870 --> 37:54.870
a mysterious cross

37:54.870 --> 37:56.870
in the town of Urcos.

37:56.870 --> 37:58.870
And so when I visited Urcos

37:58.870 --> 37:59.870
I discovered this cross

37:59.870 --> 38:01.870
on the edge of the lake there,

38:01.870 --> 38:02.870
Lake Urcos.

38:02.870 --> 38:04.870
And unfortunately

38:04.870 --> 38:05.870
I discovered also

38:05.870 --> 38:07.870
that the ancient cross

38:07.870 --> 38:08.870
had been removed

38:08.870 --> 38:09.870
and a new cross

38:09.870 --> 38:10.870
had been fixed

38:10.870 --> 38:12.870
to the old cross's base.

38:12.870 --> 38:14.870
So if there was a message

38:14.870 --> 38:15.870
on the cross of Urcos

38:15.870 --> 38:16.870
it has disappeared

38:16.870 --> 38:17.870
into the well of time.

38:17.870 --> 38:19.870
We can reconcile our fears

38:19.870 --> 38:20.870
and our judgments

38:20.870 --> 38:22.870
and our bias,

38:22.870 --> 38:25.870
our jealousy and our anger

38:25.870 --> 38:27.870
as well as all the love

38:27.870 --> 38:28.870
and accept

38:28.870 --> 38:30.870
the forgiveness

38:30.870 --> 38:31.870
and the tolerance

38:31.870 --> 38:32.870
and the compassion

38:32.870 --> 38:33.870
that comes our way every day.

38:33.870 --> 38:34.870
If we can do that

38:34.870 --> 38:35.870
by virtue of doing that

38:35.870 --> 38:36.870
day in and day out

38:36.870 --> 38:38.870
we have already prepared

38:38.870 --> 38:40.870
for whatever eventuality

38:40.870 --> 38:41.870
can happen on any day

38:41.870 --> 38:42.870
on any calendar

38:42.870 --> 38:43.870
in any year.

38:43.870 --> 38:45.870
Remember this moment in time

38:45.870 --> 38:47.870
was created by a people

38:47.870 --> 38:49.870
millennia ago.

38:49.870 --> 38:51.870
And so it's not about

38:51.870 --> 38:52.870
any one date.

38:52.870 --> 38:54.870
It's about this process

38:54.870 --> 38:56.870
that we find ourselves in

38:56.870 --> 38:57.870
and the foresight

38:57.870 --> 38:59.870
that they had to understand

38:59.870 --> 39:01.870
that we would continue

39:01.870 --> 39:03.870
to disconnect

39:03.870 --> 39:05.870
to detach our beings

39:05.870 --> 39:07.870
from the natural world

39:07.870 --> 39:10.870
until it was too late to recover.

39:10.870 --> 39:12.870
Western science has now shown

39:12.870 --> 39:14.870
without a shadow of a doubt

39:14.870 --> 39:16.870
that for every emotion

39:16.870 --> 39:17.870
that we create in our bodies

39:17.870 --> 39:18.870
and for all the feeling

39:18.870 --> 39:20.870
that we create in our bodies

39:20.870 --> 39:21.870
there's a chemistry

39:21.870 --> 39:23.870
that matches that feeling.

39:23.870 --> 39:24.870
So some of that chemistry

39:24.870 --> 39:25.870
is what we would call

39:25.870 --> 39:26.870
life affirming chemistry

39:26.870 --> 39:27.870
and some of it

39:27.870 --> 39:28.870
is life denying.

39:28.870 --> 39:30.870
Every day of our lives

39:30.870 --> 39:31.870
we have the opportunity

39:31.870 --> 39:34.870
to nurture the life affirming

39:34.870 --> 39:36.870
or the life denying chemistry

39:36.870 --> 39:37.870
in our bodies.

39:37.870 --> 39:39.870
And ultimately

39:39.870 --> 39:40.870
I believe every day

39:40.870 --> 39:42.870
is preparing us

39:42.870 --> 39:43.870
if we really stop

39:43.870 --> 39:44.870
and think about it

39:44.870 --> 39:45.870
for whatever it is

39:45.870 --> 39:46.870
that 2012

39:46.870 --> 39:48.870
or 11-11

39:48.870 --> 39:50.870
or 10-10

39:50.870 --> 39:51.870
or 12-12

39:51.870 --> 39:52.870
or whatever date

39:52.870 --> 39:53.870
might happen

39:53.870 --> 39:54.870
to cross our paths.

39:54.870 --> 39:56.870
Now having said that

39:56.870 --> 39:58.870
what we know is that

39:58.870 --> 39:59.870
cosmologically

39:59.870 --> 40:00.870
there are cycles

40:00.870 --> 40:01.870
within cycles

40:01.870 --> 40:03.870
and cycles of time

40:03.870 --> 40:04.870
where magnetics change

40:04.870 --> 40:06.870
where frequencies change

40:06.870 --> 40:08.870
where planetary alignments

40:08.870 --> 40:10.870
make it easier

40:10.870 --> 40:13.870
to access the changes

40:13.870 --> 40:15.870
that we have the opportunity

40:15.870 --> 40:16.870
to experience.

40:16.870 --> 40:17.870
And 2012

40:17.870 --> 40:18.870
appears to be

40:18.870 --> 40:20.870
a grand alignment

40:20.870 --> 40:21.870
where many cycles

40:21.870 --> 40:22.870
within cycles

40:22.870 --> 40:23.870
converge in the moment

40:23.870 --> 40:24.870
in time

40:24.870 --> 40:25.870
and that's when we wake up

40:25.870 --> 40:26.870
one morning

40:26.870 --> 40:27.870
and imagine

40:27.870 --> 40:28.870
what it feels like Sharon.

40:28.870 --> 40:29.870
Can you imagine

40:29.870 --> 40:30.870
to wake up one morning

40:30.870 --> 40:31.870
in an earth

40:31.870 --> 40:33.870
that has no magnetic field.

40:33.870 --> 40:34.870
We really don't know

40:34.870 --> 40:35.870
what we feel like.

40:35.870 --> 40:41.970
The despacho ceremony continued.

40:41.970 --> 40:42.970
With each object

40:42.970 --> 40:44.970
placed in the mandala

40:44.970 --> 40:45.970
our negative feelings

40:45.970 --> 40:46.970
were released.

40:46.970 --> 40:47.970
With each leaf

40:47.970 --> 40:48.970
our prayers

40:48.970 --> 40:49.970
were being sent out

40:49.970 --> 40:50.970
into the world.

40:50.970 --> 40:54.310
What had first

40:54.310 --> 40:55.310
led me to Peru

40:55.310 --> 40:56.310
where the message

40:56.310 --> 40:57.310
is left on the cross

40:57.310 --> 40:58.310
of Henday.

40:58.310 --> 40:59.310
I wanted to know

40:59.310 --> 41:00.310
what was so special

41:00.310 --> 41:01.310
about the caves

41:01.310 --> 41:02.310
at Cusco

41:02.310 --> 41:03.310
and why was Peru

41:03.310 --> 41:05.310
the place of refuge.

41:05.310 --> 41:06.310
I learned

41:06.310 --> 41:07.310
that there is

41:07.310 --> 41:08.310
an ancient tradition

41:08.310 --> 41:09.310
among the Karo

41:09.310 --> 41:10.310
that teaches

41:10.310 --> 41:11.310
that it is possible

41:11.310 --> 41:12.310
to turn a human being

41:12.310 --> 41:14.310
into a body of light.

41:14.310 --> 41:15.310
The Pakos

41:15.310 --> 41:16.310
or holy shamans

41:16.310 --> 41:17.310
of the Karo

41:17.310 --> 41:19.310
teach that one day

41:19.310 --> 41:20.310
all humans

41:20.310 --> 41:22.310
will have this ability.

41:22.310 --> 41:23.310
They say

41:23.310 --> 41:24.310
that this is the promise

41:24.310 --> 41:25.310
of the prophecy

41:25.310 --> 41:26.310
of Pachacuti.

41:26.310 --> 41:27.310
I wondered

41:27.310 --> 41:28.310
if there was a connection

41:28.310 --> 41:29.310
between the light body

41:29.310 --> 41:30.310
tradition

41:30.310 --> 41:31.310
of the Karo

41:31.310 --> 41:32.310
and alchemy.

41:32.310 --> 41:34.780
Sacsayhuaman

41:34.780 --> 41:35.780
is the main

41:35.780 --> 41:36.780
ancient ritual complex

41:36.780 --> 41:37.780
located in the mountains

41:37.780 --> 41:38.780
above Cusco.

41:38.780 --> 41:39.780
Cusco is shaped

41:39.780 --> 41:40.780
like a gigantic puma

41:40.780 --> 41:41.780
or South American

41:41.780 --> 41:42.780
mountain lion

41:42.780 --> 41:43.780
with its entire body

41:43.780 --> 41:44.780
pointing towards

41:44.780 --> 41:45.780
Sacsayhuaman.

41:45.780 --> 41:46.780
Nearby

41:46.780 --> 41:47.780
is the Temple

41:47.780 --> 41:48.780
of the Moon.

41:48.780 --> 41:49.780
It contains

41:49.780 --> 41:50.780
a series

41:50.780 --> 41:51.780
of ritual caves

41:51.780 --> 41:52.780
some natural

41:52.780 --> 41:53.780
some carved

41:53.780 --> 41:54.780
by humans.

41:54.780 --> 41:55.780
It is said

41:55.780 --> 41:56.780
that the local

41:56.780 --> 41:57.780
Karo

41:57.780 --> 41:58.780
still use

41:58.780 --> 41:59.780
these caves

41:59.780 --> 42:00.780
as a place

42:00.780 --> 42:01.780
of worship.

42:01.780 --> 42:02.780
These caves

42:02.780 --> 42:03.780
were ritual

42:03.780 --> 42:04.780
and ceremony.

42:04.780 --> 42:05.780
Traditional tales

42:05.780 --> 42:06.780
of the ancient Inca

42:06.780 --> 42:07.780
tell us

42:07.780 --> 42:08.780
that the shamans

42:08.780 --> 42:09.780
used the caves

42:09.780 --> 42:10.780
to ignite

42:10.780 --> 42:11.780
their bodies

42:11.780 --> 42:12.780
and luminous

42:12.780 --> 42:13.780
energy fields

42:13.780 --> 42:14.780
essentially

42:14.780 --> 42:15.780
turning them

42:15.780 --> 42:16.780
into beings

42:16.780 --> 42:17.780
of light.

42:17.780 --> 42:18.780
The alchemists

42:18.780 --> 42:19.780
Egyptians

42:19.780 --> 42:20.780
Tibetans

42:20.780 --> 42:21.780
Hindus

42:21.780 --> 42:22.780
Kabbalists

42:22.780 --> 42:23.780
Sufis

42:23.780 --> 42:24.780
and Christians

42:24.780 --> 42:25.780
also speak

42:25.780 --> 42:26.780
of the transmutation

42:26.780 --> 42:27.780
of the human being

42:27.780 --> 42:28.780
into a body

42:28.780 --> 42:29.780
of light

42:29.780 --> 42:30.780
as the ultimate

42:30.780 --> 42:31.780
goal

42:31.780 --> 42:32.780
of life.

42:32.780 --> 42:33.780
Maybe the place

42:33.780 --> 42:34.780
of refuge

42:34.780 --> 42:35.780
is not just

42:35.780 --> 42:36.780
an Inca cave

42:36.780 --> 42:37.780
in Cusco, Peru

42:37.780 --> 42:38.780
or in Tibet

42:38.780 --> 42:39.780
or anywhere else.

42:39.780 --> 42:40.780
Maybe the true

42:40.780 --> 42:41.780
place of refuge

42:41.780 --> 42:45.150
is in our hearts.

42:45.150 --> 42:46.150
My adventure

42:46.150 --> 42:47.150
in Peru

42:47.150 --> 42:48.150
took me

42:48.150 --> 42:49.150
to the small

42:49.150 --> 42:50.150
town of Urcos.

42:50.150 --> 42:51.150
Urcos is most

42:51.150 --> 42:52.150
famous

42:52.150 --> 42:53.150
for being

42:53.150 --> 42:54.150
the last

42:54.150 --> 42:55.150
stronghold

42:55.150 --> 42:56.150
of the Inca

42:56.150 --> 42:57.150
in their struggle

42:57.150 --> 42:58.150
against the Spanish

42:58.150 --> 42:59.150
conquistadors.

42:59.150 --> 43:00.150
There I discovered

43:00.150 --> 43:01.150
the cross

43:01.150 --> 43:02.150
of Urcos

43:02.150 --> 43:03.150
and saw

43:03.150 --> 43:04.150
it replaced

43:04.150 --> 43:05.150
with a new cross.

43:05.150 --> 43:06.150
Its message

43:06.150 --> 43:07.150
if any

43:07.150 --> 43:08.150
forever lost.

43:08.150 --> 43:11.360
But I also

43:11.360 --> 43:12.360
discovered

43:12.360 --> 43:13.360
a second cross

43:13.360 --> 43:14.360
at Urcos.

43:14.360 --> 43:15.360
This strange

43:15.360 --> 43:16.360
medieval looking

43:16.360 --> 43:17.360
cross

43:17.360 --> 43:18.360
heralded the approach

43:18.360 --> 43:19.360
to the town

43:19.360 --> 43:20.360
cathedral.

43:20.360 --> 43:21.360
I learned

43:21.360 --> 43:22.360
of a legend

43:22.360 --> 43:23.360
in which the four

43:23.360 --> 43:24.360
Pacos

43:24.360 --> 43:25.360
or holy shamans

43:25.360 --> 43:26.360
of the ancient

43:26.360 --> 43:27.360
Incan empire

43:27.360 --> 43:28.360
would one day

43:28.360 --> 43:29.360
meet at the cathedral

43:29.360 --> 43:30.360
in Urcos

43:30.360 --> 43:31.360
and then go off

43:31.360 --> 43:32.360
in the four directions

43:32.360 --> 43:33.360
to bring

43:33.360 --> 43:34.360
to the rest

43:34.360 --> 43:35.360
of Pachacuti,

43:35.360 --> 43:36.360
the end of time

43:36.360 --> 43:37.360
and the secret

43:37.360 --> 43:38.360
of the luminous body.

43:38.360 --> 43:40.670
So according

43:40.670 --> 43:41.670
to the prophecy

43:41.670 --> 43:42.670
the end

43:42.670 --> 43:43.670
of this age

43:43.670 --> 43:44.670
and the start

43:44.670 --> 43:45.670
of the next

43:45.670 --> 43:46.670
would begin here

43:46.670 --> 43:47.670
at the cross

43:47.670 --> 43:51.230
of Urcos.

43:51.230 --> 43:52.230
Might this be

43:52.230 --> 43:53.230
what hail

43:53.230 --> 43:54.230
to the cross

43:54.230 --> 43:55.230
of Urcos

43:55.230 --> 43:59.620
means

43:59.620 --> 44:00.620
on the Hende

44:00.620 --> 44:01.620
monument?

44:01.620 --> 44:02.620
Maybe the unknown

44:02.620 --> 44:03.620
builder

44:03.620 --> 44:04.620
of the cross

44:04.620 --> 44:05.620
of Hende

44:05.620 --> 44:06.620
knew

44:06.620 --> 44:07.620
that the ancient

44:07.620 --> 44:08.620
knowledge

44:08.620 --> 44:09.620
of the body

44:09.620 --> 44:10.620
of light

44:10.620 --> 44:11.620
was the earnest

44:11.620 --> 44:23.020
student

44:23.020 --> 44:24.020
to come here.

44:24.020 --> 44:25.020
Every day

44:25.020 --> 44:26.020
in every way

44:26.020 --> 44:27.020
we are making

44:27.020 --> 44:28.020
the future.

44:28.020 --> 44:29.020
As Don Umberto

44:29.020 --> 44:30.020
and Doña Bernardina

44:30.020 --> 44:31.020
continued

44:31.020 --> 44:32.020
to construct

44:32.020 --> 44:33.020
the despacho

44:33.020 --> 44:34.020
I began

44:34.020 --> 44:35.020
to realize

44:35.020 --> 44:36.020
that modern

44:36.020 --> 44:37.020
people

44:37.020 --> 44:38.020
are trapped

44:38.020 --> 44:39.020
by time.

44:39.020 --> 44:44.470
We are prisoners

44:44.470 --> 44:45.470
of time.

44:45.470 --> 44:46.470
Einstein once

44:46.470 --> 44:47.470
said

44:47.470 --> 44:48.470
that the reason

44:48.470 --> 44:49.470
we invented time

44:49.470 --> 44:50.470
was to prevent

44:50.470 --> 44:51.470
everything

44:51.470 --> 44:52.470
from happening

44:52.470 --> 44:53.470
at once.

44:53.470 --> 44:54.470
In our modern

44:54.470 --> 44:55.470
society

44:55.470 --> 44:56.470
we want

44:56.470 --> 44:57.470
instant food

44:57.470 --> 44:58.470
instant love

44:58.470 --> 44:59.470
instant entertainment

44:59.470 --> 45:00.470
instant sex

45:00.470 --> 45:01.470
instant spirituality.

45:01.470 --> 45:02.470
The ancients

45:02.470 --> 45:03.470
believed

45:03.470 --> 45:04.470
that the process

45:04.470 --> 45:05.470
of achieving

45:05.470 --> 45:06.470
one's goals

45:06.470 --> 45:07.470
was more important

45:07.470 --> 45:08.470
than the actual

45:08.470 --> 45:09.470
attainment.

45:09.470 --> 45:10.470
That which is

45:10.470 --> 45:11.470
important

45:11.470 --> 45:12.470
must be worked

45:12.470 --> 45:13.470
towards.

45:13.470 --> 45:14.470
Nothing of significance

45:14.470 --> 45:15.470
comes easy.

45:15.470 --> 45:16.470
It's almost

45:16.470 --> 45:17.470
as if time

45:17.470 --> 45:18.470
itself

45:18.470 --> 45:19.470
has played

45:19.470 --> 45:20.470
a monstrous

45:20.470 --> 45:21.470
trick on us.

45:21.470 --> 45:22.470
We are born

45:22.470 --> 45:23.470
we grow up

45:23.470 --> 45:24.470
we age

45:24.470 --> 45:25.470
and we find

45:25.470 --> 45:29.470
this very

45:29.470 --> 45:30.470
important.

45:30.470 --> 45:31.470
The clock

45:31.470 --> 45:32.470
goes on

45:32.470 --> 45:33.470
ticking

45:33.470 --> 45:34.470
as we go

45:34.470 --> 45:35.470
on wanting

45:35.470 --> 45:36.470
and needing

45:36.470 --> 45:37.470
and taking

45:37.470 --> 45:38.470
always longing

45:38.470 --> 45:39.470
for

45:39.470 --> 45:40.470
but somehow

45:40.470 --> 45:41.470
never accomplishing

45:41.470 --> 45:42.470
our real goal.

45:42.470 --> 45:43.470
How many humans

45:43.470 --> 45:44.470
have drawn

45:44.470 --> 45:45.470
their last breath

45:45.470 --> 45:46.470
never realizing

45:46.470 --> 45:47.470
that it is

45:47.470 --> 45:48.470
the present

45:48.470 --> 45:49.470
moment

45:49.470 --> 45:50.470
that is important

45:50.470 --> 45:51.470
not the projection

45:51.470 --> 45:52.470
of a fantasy

45:52.470 --> 45:53.470
that may

45:53.470 --> 45:57.510
between our perceptions and larger rhythms.

45:57.510 --> 45:59.450
Doesn't matter what the calendar is,

45:59.450 --> 46:03.930
they're all based upon a way of the human mind

46:03.930 --> 46:08.190
trying to understand, trying to integrate,

46:08.190 --> 46:11.770
trying to make sense out of these larger rhythms.

46:11.770 --> 46:14.770
In the West, we know of only one kind of time,

46:14.770 --> 46:19.070
which is linear time, which is time that flies like an arrow

46:19.070 --> 46:21.390
in which the future is always before us

46:21.390 --> 46:23.870
and passes behind us.

46:23.870 --> 46:28.870
This kind of time is founded on the notion of causality,

46:29.070 --> 46:30.310
of cause and effect.

46:31.490 --> 46:34.350
Indigenous societies, shamanic societies,

46:34.350 --> 46:37.150
spiritual traditions know of a different kind of time

46:37.150 --> 46:38.930
that turns like a wheel.

46:38.930 --> 46:40.850
It doesn't fly like an arrow,

46:40.850 --> 46:44.690
in which the main operating principle is not causality,

46:44.690 --> 46:45.890
but synchronicity,

46:46.770 --> 46:50.550
in which you can influence events that occurred in the past

46:50.550 --> 46:51.370
and in which you can

46:51.370 --> 46:55.010
influence and change things and change lives.

46:55.010 --> 46:57.830
So this is the eternal key at the root of a way of life,

46:57.830 --> 46:59.830
is to forge destiny.

46:59.830 --> 47:03.750
We have an actually in effect a population of time and wage slaves

47:03.750 --> 47:08.810
who are creating this and feeding this giant mammon,

47:08.810 --> 47:11.710
which is called the technosphere.

47:11.710 --> 47:15.150
It's to the complete detriment of the living organism

47:15.150 --> 47:16.950
of the earth itself, the biosphere.

47:16.950 --> 47:20.890
So we're at this total climax of this process.

47:20.890 --> 47:28.770
herself, her soul, as well as to the nature of time and reality, and we've created a world

47:28.770 --> 47:35.610
which is basically an artificial goldfish bowl where the water has gotten quite dirty.

47:35.610 --> 47:41.330
The problem with linear time, which is the time that we know, is that it tends to produce

47:41.330 --> 47:47.530
psychologists and psychotherapists, which are wonderful people, but psychology is founded

47:47.530 --> 47:52.850
on the notion that who you are today is the result of what happened to you when you were

47:52.850 --> 47:58.270
six or when you were twelve or when you were in the womb or maybe in a former lifetime.

47:58.270 --> 48:02.530
So we're always the result of an earlier cause.

48:02.530 --> 48:08.290
When we are able to engage in a different kind of time, we're not only the result of

48:08.290 --> 48:14.310
an earlier cause, we can be the result of something that hasn't happened yet.

48:14.310 --> 48:17.530
You're not only the result of your genes and your genetics.

48:17.530 --> 48:22.810
Inheritance that might predispose you to heart conditions and breast conditions.

48:22.810 --> 48:27.870
You're not only the result of your childhood, but you might be the result of something that

48:27.870 --> 48:33.670
happens to you ten years from now, or ten thousand years from now, so that the future

48:33.670 --> 48:40.930
can reach back like a giant hand and bring you forward into who you are becoming.

48:40.930 --> 48:46.450
So we can be informed by who we are becoming, and not only by the genetic baggage and the

48:46.450 --> 48:47.450
karmic baggage.

48:47.450 --> 48:50.690
The psychological baggage that we've inherited.

48:50.690 --> 48:57.130
So this is the time in which we can truly begin to pattern where we are.

48:57.130 --> 48:58.690
Where we're going.

48:58.690 --> 49:00.510
What can be.

49:00.510 --> 49:06.130
Now one of the things that's lacking in the world today is a sense of the vision

49:06.130 --> 49:07.810
of the possible.

49:07.810 --> 49:09.950
The vision of the possible society.

49:09.950 --> 49:11.350
The vision of the possible human.

49:11.350 --> 49:16.270
The vision of a planetary civilization, where I personally think we're moving towards, with

49:16.270 --> 49:17.270
high individualism.

49:17.450 --> 49:19.350
A situation of cultures.

49:19.350 --> 49:22.970
So that the genius of culture can come forward.

49:22.970 --> 49:30.920
No longer can we make the soul of culture as a satellite, to be a satellite of economics.

49:30.920 --> 49:35.280
Rather economics has to be a satellite of the soul of culture.

49:35.280 --> 49:40.840
When that occurs, then we'll realize that we're actually traveling through time and

49:40.840 --> 49:41.840
not through space.

49:41.840 --> 49:47.420
It's no longer spaceship earth, but time ship earth, and time ship earth, 2013 will

49:47.420 --> 49:48.620
be the inauguration.

49:48.620 --> 49:51.620
Or the initiation of that phase.

49:51.620 --> 49:54.720
We will have returned to universal synchronization.

49:54.720 --> 49:59.680
We will be, but we will be stabilized where we are all conscious of the fact that we are

49:59.680 --> 50:00.680
in synchronicity.

50:00.680 --> 50:05.300
At best we know of only one kind of time, which is this linear time.

50:05.300 --> 50:07.460
And we have only one calendar.

50:07.460 --> 50:13.280
But for example, there's societies like the Maya, the Mayans or the Inca, that have many

50:13.280 --> 50:14.280
different calendars.

50:14.280 --> 50:17.620
The Mayans have 24 different calendars.

50:17.620 --> 50:18.620
We have only one.

50:18.620 --> 50:25.540
Now the origin of this is very interesting because our myth of creation, our story of

50:25.540 --> 50:29.780
creation is founded on the division of space.

50:29.780 --> 50:34.820
On the first day God separated the waters above from the waters below.

50:34.820 --> 50:37.940
The dry land from the waters on the second day.

50:37.940 --> 50:41.300
So our mythology is founded on the division of space.

50:41.300 --> 50:46.720
And the first five books of the Bible have to do with the right that you have to own

50:46.720 --> 50:47.720
private property.

50:48.620 --> 50:51.380
To own the land.

50:51.380 --> 50:56.920
Whereas the indigenous mythologies are founded not on the division of space, but on the division

50:56.920 --> 50:59.560
of time.

50:59.560 --> 51:07.120
So that the notion of owning the land is very foreign to the shamanic societies.

51:07.120 --> 51:11.780
But the notion of owning time is a very familiar one.

51:11.780 --> 51:15.760
So indigenous cultures are possessed by the land.

51:15.760 --> 51:16.900
You're born in a village.

51:16.900 --> 51:18.500
You never leave that village.

51:18.500 --> 51:22.500
You're owned by the land, but you have time.

51:22.500 --> 51:26.880
In the West we're possessed by time, but we own the land.

51:26.880 --> 51:28.240
We have no time.

51:28.240 --> 51:30.440
We have time that's not available to us.

51:30.440 --> 51:34.260
So I think people have to, you know, first they have to become firmly grounded in this

51:34.260 --> 51:39.260
alternative paradigm and really get it, you know, that actually there's something here

51:39.260 --> 51:45.500
which is more substantial and even, you know, corresponds better to their lived experience

51:45.500 --> 51:47.320
of reality than the secular materialist paradigm.

51:47.320 --> 51:47.560
Right.

51:47.560 --> 51:47.660
Right.

51:47.660 --> 51:47.900
Right.

51:47.900 --> 51:47.960
Right.

51:47.960 --> 51:48.000
Right.

51:48.000 --> 51:48.060
Right.

51:48.060 --> 51:48.140
Right.

51:48.140 --> 51:48.200
Right.

51:48.200 --> 51:48.260
Right.

51:48.260 --> 51:48.320
Right.

51:48.320 --> 51:48.360
Right.

51:48.360 --> 51:48.380
Right.

51:48.380 --> 51:48.460
Right.

51:48.460 --> 51:48.480
Right.

51:48.500 --> 51:48.660
Right.

51:48.660 --> 51:48.800
Right.

51:48.800 --> 51:48.880
Right.

51:48.880 --> 51:48.960
Right.

51:48.960 --> 51:48.980
Right.

51:48.980 --> 51:49.040
Right.

51:49.040 --> 51:49.060
Right.

51:49.060 --> 51:49.080
Right.

51:49.080 --> 51:49.140
Right.

51:49.140 --> 51:49.240
Right.

51:49.240 --> 51:57.140
And so once they're firmly grounded in this alternative paradigm, then there's this shift

51:57.140 --> 52:01.400
that has to take place as a Burning Man sign said, from ego to wego.

52:01.520 --> 52:08.440
How do you then use your, you know, your intelligence, your strategic capabilities, your skill set,

52:08.860 --> 52:13.580
your resources, your karmic factors to assist the transition?

52:13.720 --> 52:15.020
And for everybody that's going to be different.

52:15.240 --> 52:18.260
For some people it might be gardening or making a sustainable living.

52:18.260 --> 52:23.020
sustainable communities somewhere for other people and might be creating new internet social network

52:23.020 --> 52:28.180
applications for somebody else that might be using their law degree to like work for indigenous

52:28.180 --> 52:34.400
people or something a lot of people will have to be willing to take a hit on their idea of comfort

52:34.400 --> 52:39.460
and affluence in order to like serve a transformational process we've run out of time

52:39.460 --> 52:43.580
we're running out of time and this is exactly what we're talking about the end of time

52:43.580 --> 52:51.360
is that this paradigm of being caught in the grip of time and being possessed by it is devastating

52:51.360 --> 52:57.880
us and it's coming to an end and it's going to come to an end either gracefully by each one of

52:57.880 --> 53:07.900
us individually learning how to step beyond time or it's going to be chaotic and and dramatic and

53:07.900 --> 53:12.620
and devastating what we've been trained to and conditioned to believe

53:12.620 --> 53:13.560
in in the

53:13.560 --> 53:13.580
in the

53:13.580 --> 53:21.280
system of reality that that work we're currently involved in which dominates the world is that third

53:21.280 --> 53:28.220
dimension is reality that what you see is what you get that can't be physically defined or proven

53:28.220 --> 53:35.960
then it doesn't exist this is this is the attitude of modern science for instance the the fact is that

53:35.960 --> 53:42.600
we live in a multi-dimensional reality the third dimensional reality is just what we call the plane

53:42.600 --> 53:43.560
of testing

53:43.560 --> 53:49.640
so our mythology of origin says that we procreate cristianity included the idea that we can venture from back above and we arejet scientists and that can be shown that we are not essense

53:50.680 --> 53:54.640
so our mythology of origin says that we are not essense we can travel across space we can travel from here to uh...lich Permia

53:54.640 --> 53:59.540
africa

53:59.540 --> 54:02.200
i'll go to europe

54:02.200 --> 54:04.040
go to south america

54:04.040 --> 54:09.120
which seems very távlek рыбу

54:09.120 --> 54:11.360
peper

54:11.360 --> 54:12.860
whereas they they are able to travel across time and that seems very foreign to us

54:12.860 --> 54:13.440
they're able to journey along their timeline

54:13.440 --> 54:19.200
or the timeline of their village to visit or influence an event that will occur in the future

54:20.240 --> 54:26.800
that's why seers of long ago were able to foretell the events surrounding 2012.

54:28.720 --> 54:36.720
we need to walk away from the illusion of linear time that has enslaved us if we don't walk away

54:36.720 --> 54:43.280
from this then the whole cycle after this disaster occurs and it's going to take place it's too late

54:43.440 --> 54:50.240
now after this disaster occurs the whole cycle will repeat itself again over the next 10 000 years

54:51.040 --> 54:59.040
we must find a new way to deal with time and that is facing the reality that there is only

54:59.040 --> 55:07.440
one moment of time there has never been anything except now there is an ancient sufi saying don't

55:07.440 --> 55:14.240
mistake the map for the territory sometimes i think we look at time this way we are always

55:14.240 --> 55:14.880
trying to save the world we are always trying to save the world we are always trying to save the world

55:14.880 --> 55:30.700
time instead maybe we should be saving ourselves we were nearing the end of the despacho healing

55:30.700 --> 55:37.660
ceremony as i watched don umberto and dona bernadina work together to place the last objects

55:37.660 --> 55:44.140
into the mandala i could see that the next world the next age would be built around the idea of

55:44.140 --> 55:51.420
partnership and cooperation it would be a revival of the archaic the return to a world of mystery

55:51.420 --> 55:53.180
balance and shamanic intent

55:53.580 --> 55:59.740
once more nature would be restored and men and women would live together in peace

56:07.790 --> 56:15.870
we see really the struggle for our future today and it's not between east and west or north and

56:15.870 --> 56:25.070
south or capitalism and socialism or religious and secular it's between partnership and domination

56:25.070 --> 56:30.750
the anthropologist rianne eisler contends that thousands of years

56:30.750 --> 56:37.950
ago men and women lived in a partnership with each other that humans and nature lived in a

56:37.950 --> 56:43.870
partnership with each other and something happened which separated us from each other and from the

56:43.870 --> 56:51.630
earth this could probably be traced back to the beginning of desertification in the middle east

56:51.630 --> 56:58.110
a sense of desperation among the people that lived there and the solar masculine principle

56:58.750 --> 57:00.590
rising forth probably

57:00.750 --> 57:05.230
with all good intentions of trying to feed their women and their children

57:06.190 --> 57:14.430
but what this created was a new world which she calls the dominator world so the dominator

57:14.430 --> 57:30.030
trans goes way way beyond mass media way way beyond the issue of drugs it goes to a way of relating

57:31.310 --> 57:35.070
starting very early on that continues

57:35.070 --> 57:39.390
worldwide unfortunately in cultures and subcultures all over the world

57:46.510 --> 57:54.590
before in olden days the inca had a lot more power than they do today they could even change

57:54.590 --> 58:00.670
stones they could cut stones only with their wishes they could even call awakened

58:00.750 --> 58:06.510
life of stones and the stones would hurl themselves or move themselves on their own they had much

58:06.510 --> 58:11.310
more power than they do today in the time of my grandmother and my great grandmother

58:12.190 --> 58:17.150
they had great power they had great power to heal they had great power to see the future

58:17.710 --> 58:23.630
they had great power to help the dead and to help the living today that power has diminished

58:24.190 --> 58:30.750
because of the encroachment because of the of the colonizers that came and imposed the new way of

58:30.750 --> 58:36.990
life upon us but during my grandmother's time and my great grandmother's time we had a great power

58:36.990 --> 58:43.230
available to us and this is the power that with our prayers we call back to us we call back to us

58:43.230 --> 58:49.470
because a new story is beginning for us today it's beginning for us during these times of great

58:49.470 --> 58:57.150
change i do believe powerfully in the potential of uh of who we are of humankind of our species

58:58.350 --> 58:59.710
of our truest nature

59:00.750 --> 59:06.350
i believe is a peaceful and benevolent nature and i also believe that when that we are a species

59:06.350 --> 59:15.390
of survivors and when pushed to the limits and the extremes of what we experience in our lives

59:15.390 --> 59:21.550
that we betray our truest nature this is what i see all over the world is this rather

59:21.550 --> 59:29.870
rapid evolution or if you will acceleration of need of yearning of desire to make a difference

59:29.870 --> 59:30.590
and to grow

59:30.750 --> 59:36.350
to become an adequate steward of this incredible singularity this evolutionary process in history

59:36.350 --> 59:41.950
everything tries to prevent us from filling this destiny in the culture that we live in now

59:42.670 --> 59:51.070
the primary superstition is the religious superstition the primary ideology is the ideology

59:51.070 --> 59:58.830
of science which says that there is nothing at all beyond the body i don't know whether or not

59:58.830 --> 01:00:00.750
we live on after we dive no i don't know whether or not we live on after we die no i don't know

01:00:00.750 --> 01:00:15.470
But I do know that there is this extraordinary, extremely sensitive and complex, numinous process that is going on right now for me centered around my body.

01:00:15.470 --> 01:00:30.410
We have to undertake the disciplines of shamanism so that we can travel in these dimensions, or we have to become a yogin, or we have to strive for enlightenment.

01:00:30.410 --> 01:00:41.510
So it's a motivator to undertake these types of disciplines. It's not for everybody, but some are motivated to do that.

01:00:41.510 --> 01:00:44.510
And then they become...

01:00:45.470 --> 01:00:51.470
You know, people that do that tend to become, in the culture, they become the people of knowledge.

01:01:06.470 --> 01:01:14.470
My grandmother was a pampamisa. She was a midwife. She could read the stories in the stones. She could read the coca leaves.

01:01:14.470 --> 01:01:15.470
She could heal.

01:01:15.470 --> 01:01:21.470
She could read the heavens. She could read the cycles of the moon. She knew the ways of the earth.

01:01:21.470 --> 01:01:24.470
The women were very powerful in our day.

01:01:24.470 --> 01:01:31.470
It's like every shadow that ever existed has risen to be faced so that we can make the next step.

01:01:31.470 --> 01:01:40.470
And I look at the end of the cosmos, and I look at our little planet, which is on a medium-sized star at an outer edge of the galaxy.

01:01:40.470 --> 01:01:44.470
We're not in the center, you know, where all the action is. We're on the outer edge.

01:01:44.470 --> 01:01:48.470
Of the spiral arm of the galaxy.

01:01:48.470 --> 01:01:50.470
And I wonder, why are we here?

01:01:50.470 --> 01:01:58.470
And I wonder whether we're not an experimental lab out here, with the sufficiency of talent, of complexity, of crisis, of challenge,

01:01:58.470 --> 01:02:12.470
to grow us into Godseeds, or rather to make the Godseeds that we already are begin to emerge into those profound and potent beings

01:02:12.470 --> 01:02:14.470
who then are sent forth.

01:02:14.470 --> 01:02:17.470
Both into outer as well as to inner space.

01:02:17.470 --> 01:02:26.070
To help orchestrate, evolve processes all over the universe.

01:02:26.070 --> 01:02:30.070
Vicero used the coca leaves for divination and telling the future.

01:02:30.070 --> 01:02:40.300
I asked Don Umberto to once again read the coca leaves and tell us what they say.

01:02:40.300 --> 01:02:42.300
In the United States there will be problems.

01:02:42.300 --> 01:02:48.300
There will be problems in many cities in the United States as they are unable to adapt to this change

01:02:48.300 --> 01:02:50.300
that is coming.

01:02:50.300 --> 01:02:55.300
The United States has a great power, has great brilliance, great resources.

01:02:55.300 --> 01:03:02.300
It is up to the United States to take leadership in the world, to bring peace, to bring balance back to the planet.

01:03:02.300 --> 01:03:06.300
Without the leadership of the United States there is no hope for the world.

01:03:06.300 --> 01:03:13.300
For us who are following the path of the Earth, of the Earth people, we will not have problems.

01:03:13.300 --> 01:03:17.300
But those who do not follow the ways of the Earth people, the path of the Earth people,

01:03:17.300 --> 01:03:19.300
will have many, many difficulties.

01:03:19.300 --> 01:03:25.710
Many will be expelled from the Earth.

01:03:25.710 --> 01:03:31.300
There will be problems in many, many countries.

01:03:31.300 --> 01:03:36.300
In many countries there will be many people that suffer as they do not find their way

01:03:36.300 --> 01:03:41.300
or are unable to find their way back to the Earth, back to the ways of the Earth.

01:03:41.300 --> 01:03:49.940
But for us there will be no problems.

01:03:49.940 --> 01:03:52.940
We must make our prayers to the feminine.

01:03:52.940 --> 01:03:54.940
We must make our prayers to the mother.

01:03:54.940 --> 01:03:56.940
We must come back to the ways of the feminine.

01:03:56.940 --> 01:03:58.940
Of stewardship, of protection.

01:03:58.940 --> 01:04:04.940
Without that, without our making our prayers to the Earth and to the ways of the feminine,

01:04:04.940 --> 01:04:07.940
there is no hope for anyone, for any of us.

01:04:13.950 --> 01:04:16.950
The problem is bigger than we want to acknowledge.

01:04:16.950 --> 01:04:20.950
It is so much bigger than any one of us can perceive.

01:04:20.950 --> 01:04:24.950
The solution that the mother tells us is by coming back to her.

01:04:24.950 --> 01:04:27.950
We are her children and she will look after us.

01:04:27.950 --> 01:04:30.950
But we must come back to her.

01:04:30.950 --> 01:04:32.950
Thank you, Father.

01:04:32.950 --> 01:04:33.950
Thank you.

01:04:33.950 --> 01:04:35.950
Thank you, Father.

01:04:52.950 --> 01:04:54.950
The United States has a great head.

01:04:54.950 --> 01:04:56.950
It has great brilliance, great talent.

01:04:57.950 --> 01:04:59.950
It must come back down to the heart.

01:04:59.950 --> 01:05:01.950
It must come back down to the mother.

01:05:01.950 --> 01:05:02.950
Back to the Earth.

01:05:02.950 --> 01:05:04.950
Without the gifts of the heart,

01:05:04.950 --> 01:05:11.490
we are not going to be able to think our way out of the problems that we have created.

01:05:11.490 --> 01:05:12.490
Thank you, Father.

01:05:12.490 --> 01:05:13.490
Thank you.

01:05:15.180 --> 01:05:19.180
Francis Bacon was a British philosopher and a Freemason

01:05:19.180 --> 01:05:25.180
who lived around the same time as the discovery and colonization of America.

01:05:25.180 --> 01:05:30.180
He believed that the New World was going to be the location of something that he called the New Atlantis.

01:05:31.180 --> 01:05:34.180
When the Founding Fathers created America,

01:05:34.180 --> 01:05:39.180
they built monuments and cities exemplifying this ancient ideal.

01:05:39.180 --> 01:05:42.180
But this was not just a European experiment.

01:05:42.180 --> 01:05:48.180
Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson were extremely interested in the indigenous Americans,

01:05:48.180 --> 01:05:52.180
their politics, and their spirituality.

01:05:52.180 --> 01:05:56.180
It is said that they even designed much of the U.S. Constitution

01:05:56.180 --> 01:06:00.180
on the guidelines that ruled the Iroquois Confederacy.

01:06:01.180 --> 01:06:08.560
There is even a suggestion that Benjamin Franklin knew about the ways of the Mayan people.

01:06:08.560 --> 01:06:14.560
Ben Franklin, following up on the earlier research of Leonard Euler,

01:06:14.560 --> 01:06:18.560
he noticed that you can arrange squares,

01:06:18.560 --> 01:06:21.560
like say an 8x8 square, for example.

01:06:21.560 --> 01:06:24.560
Then you have a grid of 64,

01:06:24.560 --> 01:06:27.560
and you can arrange the numbers from 1 to 64

01:06:27.560 --> 01:06:31.560
in such a way that all the rows and all the columns

01:06:31.560 --> 01:06:33.560
add up to the same number.

01:06:33.560 --> 01:06:38.560
And for the 8x8 magic square, that number is 260.

01:06:38.560 --> 01:06:40.560
That's kind of interesting,

01:06:40.560 --> 01:06:44.560
because it points up this relationship between the number 64,

01:06:44.560 --> 01:06:46.560
8x8, 64,

01:06:46.560 --> 01:06:49.560
the number of blocks in this magic square,

01:06:49.560 --> 01:06:52.560
and how you can arrange the numbers from 1 to 64

01:06:52.560 --> 01:06:56.560
such that 260 is the constant somehow.

01:06:56.560 --> 01:06:59.560
We know that 64 is the magic number of DNA,

01:06:59.560 --> 01:07:02.560
but also it's the number of squares on a chessboard,

01:07:02.560 --> 01:07:05.560
and it's the number of hexagrams in the I Ching.

01:07:05.560 --> 01:07:09.560
So we can see that what Benjamin Franklin is doing here

01:07:09.560 --> 01:07:12.560
is he's laying out a pattern of 64,

01:07:12.560 --> 01:07:14.560
and then he's arranging numbers

01:07:14.560 --> 01:07:17.560
so that no matter how you add up the numbers,

01:07:17.560 --> 01:07:20.560
either way through the magic square of 64,

01:07:20.560 --> 01:07:24.560
every single number comes out to be 260.

01:07:24.560 --> 01:07:27.560
The sacred sciences of ancient Egypt, for example,

01:07:27.560 --> 01:07:28.560
relate to 64,

01:07:28.560 --> 01:07:30.560
because it's the power of 2 thing,

01:07:30.560 --> 01:07:32.560
the square root 2 thing.

01:07:32.560 --> 01:07:36.560
And then 260 refers to the golden proportion,

01:07:36.560 --> 01:07:38.560
which is a square root 5 thing.

01:07:38.560 --> 01:07:42.560
So there's this entire, like, sacred science cosmology

01:07:42.560 --> 01:07:44.560
built into these systems.

01:07:44.560 --> 01:07:47.560
260 I knew was the magic number of the mind,

01:07:47.560 --> 01:07:50.560
and so here was a magic square of 64,

01:07:50.560 --> 01:07:53.560
and what they call a magic square of 8

01:07:53.560 --> 01:07:56.560
with an array of 64.

01:07:56.560 --> 01:07:58.560
Every row adds up to 64.

01:07:58.560 --> 01:08:01.560
That's the magic number of 260 that I saw.

01:08:01.560 --> 01:08:03.560
That was what I was looking for,

01:08:03.560 --> 01:08:05.560
because I also knew that the 64

01:08:05.560 --> 01:08:08.560
was the magic number of the DNA code,

01:08:08.560 --> 01:08:10.560
and so therefore what that showed me

01:08:10.560 --> 01:08:13.560
was that this mathematical magic square,

01:08:13.560 --> 01:08:15.560
as it was called,

01:08:15.560 --> 01:08:17.560
actually showed that the relationship

01:08:17.560 --> 01:08:20.560
between the DNA and the natural timing frequency,

01:08:20.560 --> 01:08:23.560
which is a number which is 260.

01:08:23.560 --> 01:08:26.560
260 is the sacred zone

01:08:26.560 --> 01:08:31.560
in the sacred Zolkin calendar of 260 days.

01:08:31.560 --> 01:08:34.560
The Maya daykeepers, they say that it's based upon

01:08:34.560 --> 01:08:36.560
the human gestation period.

01:08:36.560 --> 01:08:38.560
It's roughly 9 months.

01:08:38.560 --> 01:08:41.560
So that makes sense just on a philosophical level,

01:08:41.560 --> 01:08:43.560
because 64 DNA is like the code

01:08:43.560 --> 01:08:46.560
that unfolds in the 260-day cycle

01:08:46.560 --> 01:08:49.560
to generate one individual human being.

01:08:49.560 --> 01:08:52.560
260 is a harmonic,

01:08:52.560 --> 01:08:55.560
not only of the 26,000-year-long procession,

01:08:55.560 --> 01:08:57.560
of the equinoxes,

01:08:57.560 --> 01:08:59.560
which we know they were mapping with their calendar,

01:08:59.560 --> 01:09:01.560
but also it's a harmonic

01:09:01.560 --> 01:09:04.560
of the number of days that an average human lives.

01:09:04.560 --> 01:09:08.560
If a human being lives around 72 years,

01:09:08.560 --> 01:09:12.560
they live approximately 26,000 days.

01:09:12.560 --> 01:09:14.560
We know that they chose,

01:09:14.560 --> 01:09:16.560
or at least they tell us that they chose,

01:09:16.560 --> 01:09:18.560
this 260 number

01:09:18.560 --> 01:09:20.560
because it's the number of days

01:09:20.560 --> 01:09:22.560
that a human spends in gestation.

01:09:22.560 --> 01:09:24.560
It's the number of days that a baby spends

01:09:24.560 --> 01:09:25.560
in the womb.

01:09:25.560 --> 01:09:26.560
It's the number of days

01:09:26.560 --> 01:09:28.560
that a baby spends in the womb

01:09:28.560 --> 01:09:30.560
of its mother before it's born.

01:09:30.560 --> 01:09:32.560
And I thought about how Ben Franklin

01:09:32.560 --> 01:09:34.560
had been studying the electromagnetism

01:09:34.560 --> 01:09:36.560
of the Earth and the poles and so on.

01:09:36.560 --> 01:09:38.560
So I said, well, I had a kind of aha.

01:09:38.560 --> 01:09:40.560
I said, oh, actually, this is actually a mapping

01:09:40.560 --> 01:09:42.560
of the, what I call the side bank,

01:09:42.560 --> 01:09:44.560
the underlying structure of the noosphere

01:09:44.560 --> 01:09:46.560
around the Earth.

01:09:46.560 --> 01:09:48.560
So we can see that time

01:09:48.560 --> 01:09:52.560
is governed by this 260-day harmonic.

01:09:52.560 --> 01:09:54.560
And we can see that 64

01:09:54.560 --> 01:09:56.560
is the magic number of DNA,

01:09:56.560 --> 01:09:57.560
which is matter,

01:09:57.560 --> 01:09:59.560
which is living matter.

01:09:59.560 --> 01:10:01.560
And so Ben Franklin

01:10:01.560 --> 01:10:03.560
is trying to marry up

01:10:03.560 --> 01:10:07.560
the aspects of living matter

01:10:07.560 --> 01:10:09.560
with the aspects of time.

01:10:09.560 --> 01:10:11.560
He's trying to marry up

01:10:11.560 --> 01:10:13.560
matter with spirit.

01:10:13.560 --> 01:10:16.560
And this is the secret of alchemy.

01:10:16.560 --> 01:10:18.560
All of these ideas start to come together,

01:10:18.560 --> 01:10:20.560
and one of the key pieces of it

01:10:20.560 --> 01:10:22.560
that the ancients discussed

01:10:22.560 --> 01:10:23.560
that we have left out

01:10:23.560 --> 01:10:25.560
in our modern Stargate conceptions

01:10:25.560 --> 01:10:27.560
is they recognize that the serpent rope

01:10:27.560 --> 01:10:29.560
could equate to Kundalini.

01:10:29.560 --> 01:10:31.560
It equates to that spiritual energy

01:10:31.560 --> 01:10:33.560
that we must all lift within ourselves.

01:10:33.560 --> 01:10:36.560
And what we need to begin to plug into this

01:10:36.560 --> 01:10:38.560
is that, yeah, maybe we will be able

01:10:38.560 --> 01:10:40.560
to build a giant particle accelerator,

01:10:40.560 --> 01:10:42.560
a space-based particle accelerator

01:10:42.560 --> 01:10:44.560
that could open these holes in space.

01:10:44.560 --> 01:10:46.560
But more than likely,

01:10:46.560 --> 01:10:48.560
it's going to be the heart-mind connection

01:10:48.560 --> 01:10:50.560
that is going to enable us to do this.

01:10:50.560 --> 01:10:52.560
We're enchanted in the West with DNA.

01:10:52.560 --> 01:10:54.560
It's a brand-new discovery, Watson and Crick.

01:10:54.560 --> 01:10:56.560
It's very sexy today.

01:10:56.560 --> 01:10:59.560
But DNA basically manufactures proteins.

01:10:59.560 --> 01:11:01.560
That's all it does.

01:11:01.560 --> 01:11:03.560
DNA is the hardware

01:11:03.560 --> 01:11:06.560
that is informed by the software,

01:11:06.560 --> 01:11:08.560
which is the luminous energy field

01:11:08.560 --> 01:11:10.560
that informs the hardware.

01:11:10.560 --> 01:11:12.560
So if we can download

01:11:12.560 --> 01:11:15.560
version 7.1 of the software,

01:11:15.560 --> 01:11:18.560
we can instruct our DNA

01:11:18.560 --> 01:11:21.560
to grow new bodies that age differently,

01:11:21.560 --> 01:11:24.560
that heal differently, that die differently.

01:11:24.560 --> 01:11:27.560
And that's one of the key points of our time right now

01:11:27.560 --> 01:11:30.560
is reclaiming or putting together

01:11:30.560 --> 01:11:32.560
those old sacred secrets

01:11:32.560 --> 01:11:35.560
about how we activate our light bodies.

01:11:35.560 --> 01:11:37.560
One of the main secrets of alchemy

01:11:37.560 --> 01:11:41.560
is that there is an invisible luminous energy body

01:11:41.560 --> 01:11:43.560
that exists around every living thing,

01:11:43.560 --> 01:11:46.560
whether it be plant, animal, human.

01:11:46.560 --> 01:11:48.560
And the alchemists even believe

01:11:48.560 --> 01:11:50.560
that stars and planets and minerals

01:11:50.560 --> 01:11:53.560
have this invisible luminous energy field around it.

01:11:53.560 --> 01:11:56.560
This invisible luminous energy field

01:11:56.560 --> 01:11:59.560
is really what we call 4D space.

01:11:59.560 --> 01:12:01.560
One of the things that I see is that

01:12:01.560 --> 01:12:03.560
we seem to be coming up to a moment,

01:12:03.560 --> 01:12:05.560
a moment in time,

01:12:05.560 --> 01:12:07.560
where these secrets are going to be revealed.

01:12:07.560 --> 01:12:09.560
In that time, we don't know how long

01:12:09.560 --> 01:12:11.560
these secrets and this information,

01:12:11.560 --> 01:12:13.560
this consciousness is going to be available.

01:12:13.560 --> 01:12:16.560
My sense is it could be a very short period of time.

01:12:16.560 --> 01:12:18.560
So this is all going to come up,

01:12:18.560 --> 01:12:19.560
people are going to lock onto it,

01:12:19.560 --> 01:12:22.560
and then it's going to fade away.

01:12:22.560 --> 01:12:23.560
Do you know that DNA pulsates

01:12:23.560 --> 01:12:27.560
at the rate of 100 cycles per second, 100 hertz?

01:12:27.560 --> 01:12:30.560
DNA basically functions with light.

01:12:30.560 --> 01:12:32.560
So it emits light

01:12:32.560 --> 01:12:35.560
at the rate of 100 pulses per second.

01:12:35.560 --> 01:12:38.560
Well, what it is, is that it's emitting information,

01:12:38.560 --> 01:12:41.560
because all light contains information.

01:12:41.560 --> 01:12:43.560
So when we bring in the light,

01:12:43.560 --> 01:12:45.560
the light of who we are becoming,

01:12:45.560 --> 01:12:48.560
and that's why all the spiritual traditions speak about

01:12:48.560 --> 01:12:52.560
enlightenment, about awakening to the light.

01:12:52.560 --> 01:12:54.560
They're awakening to the light of

01:12:54.560 --> 01:12:56.560
not only the Christ and the Buddha,

01:12:56.560 --> 01:12:59.560
but who we are becoming as a species.

01:12:59.560 --> 01:13:01.560
We're re-informing our DNA,

01:13:01.560 --> 01:13:04.560
instructing it to express itself

01:13:04.560 --> 01:13:07.560
in ways that have never been explored before.

01:13:07.560 --> 01:13:09.560
And so what people have to become aware of

01:13:09.560 --> 01:13:11.560
is that there are high energy phenomena

01:13:11.560 --> 01:13:14.560
that our light bodies are interacting with,

01:13:14.560 --> 01:13:16.560
and it's awareness of those that will assist us

01:13:16.560 --> 01:13:18.560
in this transformation.

01:13:18.560 --> 01:13:21.560
So this hypersphere exists around the Earth.

01:13:21.560 --> 01:13:25.560
It exists like a doughnut.

01:13:25.560 --> 01:13:27.560
It's called a torus in physics.

01:13:27.560 --> 01:13:30.560
And it has a...

01:13:30.560 --> 01:13:32.560
It comes down through the top,

01:13:32.560 --> 01:13:35.560
swirls down into the north pole of your sphere,

01:13:35.560 --> 01:13:36.560
or your human,

01:13:36.560 --> 01:13:37.560
comes out through the bottom,

01:13:37.560 --> 01:13:39.560
goes around like a doughnut,

01:13:39.560 --> 01:13:42.560
comes around, and comes back down through.

01:13:42.560 --> 01:13:44.560
Once you get a hold of this,

01:13:44.560 --> 01:13:47.560
you're bumped up the evolutionary ladder, so to speak.

01:13:47.560 --> 01:13:49.560
And it opens up...

01:13:49.560 --> 01:13:51.560
This is the basis, then, for the Stargate science,

01:13:51.560 --> 01:13:53.560
for opening wormholes.

01:13:53.560 --> 01:13:54.560
I mean, literally, at CERN,

01:13:54.560 --> 01:13:57.560
they're talking about creating baby black holes.

01:13:57.560 --> 01:13:59.560
And so with this,

01:13:59.560 --> 01:14:01.560
we are literally transforming ourselves

01:14:01.560 --> 01:14:04.560
into God-like beings.

01:14:04.560 --> 01:14:06.560
Do you know that 90% of our DNA

01:14:06.560 --> 01:14:09.560
is considered to be junk DNA?

01:14:09.560 --> 01:14:12.560
Redundant? Only 10%, less than 10%.

01:14:12.560 --> 01:14:16.560
It's actually the cohesive, practical DNA

01:14:16.560 --> 01:14:18.560
that creates our bodies.

01:14:18.560 --> 01:14:23.560
Well, there's nothing redundant or junk in nature.

01:14:23.560 --> 01:14:27.560
This 90% is the pool of possibilities,

01:14:27.560 --> 01:14:30.560
the pool of possibilities that we can draw from

01:14:30.560 --> 01:14:33.560
to express a new human here on Earth.

01:14:33.560 --> 01:14:37.560
But it has to come from the information field

01:14:37.560 --> 01:14:39.560
that surrounds the physical body,

01:14:39.560 --> 01:14:41.560
from the luminous energy field.

01:14:41.560 --> 01:14:44.560
Shamans have known this for millennia.

01:14:44.560 --> 01:14:45.560
And once you inform

01:14:45.560 --> 01:14:47.560
the luminous energy field,

01:14:47.560 --> 01:14:50.560
that informs the body, and we evolve.

01:14:50.560 --> 01:14:53.560
Each human has a hypersphere,

01:14:53.560 --> 01:14:55.560
and it enters through the top of the brain

01:14:55.560 --> 01:14:59.560
and comes down through the bottom of the spine.

01:14:59.560 --> 01:15:02.560
Alchemists know that this is

01:15:02.560 --> 01:15:04.560
what they're trying to achieve

01:15:04.560 --> 01:15:07.560
when they say they're trying to turn lead into gold.

01:15:07.560 --> 01:15:09.560
What they're really saying is

01:15:09.560 --> 01:15:11.560
they're trying to turn the body

01:15:11.560 --> 01:15:13.560
into this luminous energy field

01:15:13.560 --> 01:15:14.560
to unite it

01:15:14.560 --> 01:15:16.560
with the luminous energy field

01:15:16.560 --> 01:15:18.560
in a more cohesive fashion.

01:15:18.560 --> 01:15:21.560
The luminous energy field already comes

01:15:21.560 --> 01:15:24.560
laden with a tremendous amount of information,

01:15:24.560 --> 01:15:27.560
not all of it positive.

01:15:27.560 --> 01:15:29.560
So that the predisposition

01:15:29.560 --> 01:15:31.560
that may run in your family

01:15:31.560 --> 01:15:33.560
towards heart disease

01:15:33.560 --> 01:15:35.560
is encoded not only in your genes,

01:15:35.560 --> 01:15:37.560
but in your luminous energy field,

01:15:37.560 --> 01:15:39.560
which contains information.

01:15:39.560 --> 01:15:41.560
It's an information field.

01:15:41.560 --> 01:15:44.560
The karma from a family

01:15:44.560 --> 01:15:46.560
to a former existence,

01:15:46.560 --> 01:15:48.560
the trauma that occurred to you

01:15:48.560 --> 01:15:50.560
when you were six or you were eight,

01:15:50.560 --> 01:15:53.560
is encoded in the luminous energy field.

01:15:53.560 --> 01:15:56.560
We cannot download new information

01:15:56.560 --> 01:16:00.560
until we clear the luminous energy field.

01:16:00.560 --> 01:16:02.560
The mayas seem to be describing

01:16:02.560 --> 01:16:03.560
this magical moment

01:16:03.560 --> 01:16:06.560
where we have this rare galactic alignment,

01:16:06.560 --> 01:16:08.560
and from out of this alignment

01:16:08.560 --> 01:16:10.560
is where this serpent rope emerges.

01:16:10.560 --> 01:16:12.560
And if we equate the serpent rope

01:16:12.560 --> 01:16:13.560
with the wormhole,

01:16:13.560 --> 01:16:15.560
then it appears we're at this magic moment

01:16:15.560 --> 01:16:17.560
where we're going to create

01:16:17.560 --> 01:16:19.560
this incredible new level of technology

01:16:19.560 --> 01:16:21.560
that's going to align each of us

01:16:21.560 --> 01:16:23.560
with the source of where

01:16:23.560 --> 01:16:26.560
many shamanic traditions tell us we came from.

01:16:26.560 --> 01:16:28.560
Is it that the Freemasons

01:16:28.560 --> 01:16:30.560
had this knowledge passed down

01:16:30.560 --> 01:16:33.560
from some long-ago civilization?

01:16:33.560 --> 01:16:35.560
I think that that's extremely possible

01:16:35.560 --> 01:16:37.560
because the Cross of Hende,

01:16:37.560 --> 01:16:38.560
as Foltinelli tells us,

01:16:38.560 --> 01:16:41.560
was also built by a 33rd-degree mason,

01:16:41.560 --> 01:16:42.560
and the Cross of Hende

01:16:42.560 --> 01:16:45.560
reveals extremely profound information.

01:16:45.560 --> 01:16:49.560
So it's my belief that the Freemasons,

01:16:49.560 --> 01:16:51.560
at least the Freemasons from a long time ago,

01:16:51.560 --> 01:16:55.560
had some kind of incredibly profound knowledge

01:16:55.560 --> 01:16:57.560
that had been passed down to them

01:16:57.560 --> 01:16:59.560
and which they were trying to preserve.

01:16:59.560 --> 01:17:01.560
For the Inca, the new luminous body

01:17:01.560 --> 01:17:04.560
is represented by a figure

01:17:04.560 --> 01:17:07.560
that in geometry is known as a taurus.

01:17:07.560 --> 01:17:09.560
It is a donut-shaped figure

01:17:09.560 --> 01:17:12.560
that represents the human luminous energy.

01:17:12.560 --> 01:17:15.560
The axis of that field is the central hole

01:17:15.560 --> 01:17:18.560
that runs up our spine.

01:17:18.560 --> 01:17:22.560
The sides of the taurus represent

01:17:22.560 --> 01:17:24.560
our luminous energy field

01:17:24.560 --> 01:17:27.560
that flows out the top of our head,

01:17:27.560 --> 01:17:30.560
around us the width of our outstretched arms,

01:17:30.560 --> 01:17:33.560
into the earth for about a foot,

01:17:33.560 --> 01:17:36.560
and then right up the center of our bodies.

01:17:36.560 --> 01:17:40.560
This taurus is not only a representation

01:17:40.560 --> 01:17:41.560
of the luminous energy field,

01:17:41.560 --> 01:17:47.560
but it is also a representation of a gateway,

01:17:47.560 --> 01:17:50.560
of a gateway between the worlds,

01:17:50.560 --> 01:17:52.560
of a gateway to infinity,

01:17:52.560 --> 01:17:54.560
of a gateway back to spirit,

01:17:54.560 --> 01:17:55.560
back to our source,

01:17:55.560 --> 01:17:57.560
back to where we came from

01:17:57.560 --> 01:17:59.560
and back to where we're going.

01:17:59.560 --> 01:18:04.950
Don Umberto and Doña Bernadina

01:18:04.950 --> 01:18:08.950
had already wrapped the objects of the despacho with paper.

01:18:08.950 --> 01:18:11.950
Now they placed the bundle into the flames,

01:18:11.950 --> 01:18:13.950
where they would burn and be purified.

01:18:13.950 --> 01:18:23.180
I could almost see the negative energies

01:18:23.180 --> 01:18:25.180
being dissipated in the fire.

01:18:25.180 --> 01:18:42.320
Near the end of my trip to Peru,

01:18:42.320 --> 01:18:45.320
I met Don Martín, a Quero shaman.

01:18:45.320 --> 01:18:48.320
The condor he wears is his totem animal.

01:18:48.320 --> 01:18:51.320
He told us of the prophecies of Pachacuti

01:18:51.320 --> 01:18:54.320
and what to expect as we approached 2012.

01:18:57.320 --> 01:18:59.320
Pachacuti was the great Inca,

01:18:59.320 --> 01:19:01.320
but he was also a great prophet.

01:19:01.320 --> 01:19:03.320
He left us with a body of prophecy

01:19:03.320 --> 01:19:05.320
that spoke about a time of great change

01:19:05.320 --> 01:19:09.320
right now, of hunger, of famine, of war,

01:19:09.320 --> 01:19:11.320
of conflict between neighbors,

01:19:11.320 --> 01:19:13.320
of conflict between tribes,

01:19:13.320 --> 01:19:15.320
conflicts between nations,

01:19:15.320 --> 01:19:17.320
of scarcity,

01:19:17.320 --> 01:19:19.320
when there was once a time of great abundance,

01:19:19.320 --> 01:19:21.320
of there being hunger now.

01:19:21.320 --> 01:19:23.320
We are in the middle, in the very middle

01:19:23.320 --> 01:19:25.320
of the cycle of the prophecies.

01:19:25.320 --> 01:19:28.320
We're in the very middle of war.

01:19:28.320 --> 01:19:31.320
And there's increasing war in the coming years.

01:19:31.320 --> 01:19:34.320
Countries that are not even involved

01:19:34.320 --> 01:19:37.320
in any conflict today will be drawn into conflict.

01:19:37.320 --> 01:19:40.320
The shamans are coming together with their prayers

01:19:40.320 --> 01:19:42.320
that this does not happen.

01:19:42.320 --> 01:19:44.320
They're bringing their prayers to bear,

01:19:44.320 --> 01:19:47.320
to call forth on the spiritual world,

01:19:47.320 --> 01:19:50.320
which is the world that will come after the Pachacuti.

01:19:50.320 --> 01:19:54.320
Pachacuti said to us before he left,

01:19:54.320 --> 01:19:56.320
he said, they will kill you.

01:19:56.320 --> 01:19:58.320
They will slay your bodies,

01:19:58.320 --> 01:20:00.320
but they can never slay your spirit.

01:20:00.320 --> 01:20:02.320
Your spirit will always live.

01:20:02.320 --> 01:20:04.320
My spirit is your spirit.

01:20:04.320 --> 01:20:06.320
Your spirit will always live,

01:20:06.320 --> 01:20:08.320
will always rule.

01:20:08.320 --> 01:20:11.320
And this is the spirit that we're calling forth today,

01:20:11.320 --> 01:20:13.320
that I call forth in my altar,

01:20:13.320 --> 01:20:16.320
that we can call forth in each one of our altars,

01:20:16.320 --> 01:20:21.320
is that spirit that rules with benevolence

01:20:21.320 --> 01:20:23.320
and with grace,

01:20:23.320 --> 01:20:25.320
and that needs to come down today

01:20:25.320 --> 01:20:27.320
from the Hanak Pacha, from the upper world.

01:20:27.320 --> 01:20:30.320
This is the work that all of us are dedicated to.

01:20:37.170 --> 01:20:40.170
This is how we do our prayers.

01:20:40.170 --> 01:20:42.170
We take kintu, we take three leaves,

01:20:42.170 --> 01:20:44.170
we call on the heavens,

01:20:44.170 --> 01:20:45.170
we call on the mountains,

01:20:45.170 --> 01:20:47.170
we call on the earth,

01:20:47.170 --> 01:20:48.170
and we blow our prayers,

01:20:48.170 --> 01:20:50.170
and we surrender it to the wind.

01:20:50.170 --> 01:20:53.170
Whatever may come is what comes.

01:20:53.170 --> 01:20:56.170
All the prophecies are coming true.

01:20:56.170 --> 01:20:58.170
Bring your prayers to the Apus,

01:20:58.170 --> 01:20:59.170
to the mountains,

01:20:59.170 --> 01:21:00.170
to the Mother Earth,

01:21:00.170 --> 01:21:02.170
to all of nature,

01:21:02.170 --> 01:21:04.170
so that all of nature can come back with her life,

01:21:04.170 --> 01:21:06.170
to bring back life to us,

01:21:06.170 --> 01:21:09.170
so that all of the prophecies can come true.

01:21:09.170 --> 01:21:11.170
Bring your prayers to all.

01:21:22.170 --> 01:21:24.170
There is a simple sense of connection

01:21:24.170 --> 01:21:26.170
that I witness among these people,

01:21:26.170 --> 01:21:29.170
a feeling of warmth, compassion and community

01:21:29.170 --> 01:21:33.170
that is disappearing among the people of my own country.

01:21:33.170 --> 01:21:35.170
We don't seem to care for each other

01:21:35.170 --> 01:21:36.170
in the same way

01:21:36.170 --> 01:21:38.170
that we do in the world.

01:21:38.170 --> 01:21:41.170
We have forgotten how to live together.

01:21:41.170 --> 01:21:44.170
We have forgotten how to love each other.

01:21:58.170 --> 01:22:15.560
The ancients say that the body of light

01:22:15.560 --> 01:22:18.560
can only be achieved through love,

01:22:18.560 --> 01:22:20.560
that compassion and forgiveness

01:22:20.560 --> 01:22:22.560
are the path towards true liberation.

01:22:22.560 --> 01:22:27.480
Maybe 2012 is not only a purging

01:22:27.480 --> 01:22:31.480
but also an embrace of all that is really important to us

01:22:31.480 --> 01:22:34.480
and all that we hold dear to our hearts.

01:22:34.480 --> 01:23:19.340
As I sat among these ancient ruins

01:23:19.340 --> 01:23:22.340
and thought about the millions of people who have lived

01:23:22.340 --> 01:23:24.340
and the billions more who are alive today,

01:23:24.340 --> 01:23:26.340
I wondered,

01:23:26.340 --> 01:23:29.340
what does the future hold in store for us?

01:23:29.340 --> 01:23:32.340
Who are we becoming?

01:23:32.340 --> 01:23:35.340
Will we remember what we've had

01:23:35.340 --> 01:23:43.640
and what we've lost?

01:23:43.640 --> 01:23:47.640
Accelerated time has left the gentle ebb and flow

01:23:47.640 --> 01:23:50.640
of gene transfer and adaptation

01:23:50.640 --> 01:23:53.640
that characterizes biological evolution

01:23:53.640 --> 01:23:58.640
and instead historical time is generated.

01:23:58.640 --> 01:24:02.640
No one of us, I think, can imagine

01:24:02.640 --> 01:24:06.640
that history could go on for another thousand years.

01:24:06.640 --> 01:24:07.640
I mean, what would it look like?

01:24:07.640 --> 01:24:10.640
At the current rate of population growth,

01:24:10.640 --> 01:24:12.640
spread of epidemic disease,

01:24:12.640 --> 01:24:14.640
rate of invention,

01:24:14.640 --> 01:24:17.640
connectivity, depletion of resources,

01:24:17.640 --> 01:24:18.640
the atmosphere,

01:24:18.640 --> 01:24:20.640
is it possible to conceive

01:24:20.640 --> 01:24:23.640
of another thousand years of human history?

01:24:23.640 --> 01:24:26.640
We have burned our bridges.

01:24:26.640 --> 01:24:31.640
We are preparing for a kind of cultural forward escape.

01:24:31.640 --> 01:24:34.640
The simple example of metamorphosis,

01:24:34.640 --> 01:24:36.640
that of caterpillar to the butterfly,

01:24:36.640 --> 01:24:40.640
we all know that there is this intermediate resting stage

01:24:40.640 --> 01:24:44.640
where the caterpillar is, for all practical purposes,

01:24:44.640 --> 01:24:47.640
enzymatically dissolved

01:24:47.640 --> 01:24:50.640
and then reconstituted

01:24:50.640 --> 01:24:53.640
as an entirely different kind of organism

01:24:53.640 --> 01:24:56.640
with different physical structures,

01:24:56.640 --> 01:24:59.640
different eyes, different legs,

01:24:59.640 --> 01:25:00.640
a different way of breathing,

01:25:00.640 --> 01:25:03.640
with wings where no wings were before,

01:25:03.640 --> 01:25:05.640
with a different kind of feeding apparatus,

01:25:05.640 --> 01:25:09.640
this is what's happening to us.

01:25:09.640 --> 01:25:13.640
History is a process of metamorphosis.

01:25:13.640 --> 01:25:17.640
It's like what a butterfly is doing in a cocoon

01:25:17.640 --> 01:25:21.640
or what is happening to a child in the womb.

01:25:21.640 --> 01:25:23.640
It's a gestation process

01:25:23.640 --> 01:25:27.640
where one form of life is being changed into another.

01:25:27.640 --> 01:25:30.640
It begins with naked monkeys

01:25:30.640 --> 01:25:34.640
and it ends with a human machine

01:25:34.640 --> 01:25:37.640
planet girdling interface

01:25:37.640 --> 01:25:41.640
capable of releasing the energies that light the stars.

01:25:41.640 --> 01:25:45.640
And it lasts about 15 or 20 thousand years

01:25:45.640 --> 01:25:47.640
and during that period

01:25:47.640 --> 01:25:50.640
the entire process hangs in the balance.

01:25:50.640 --> 01:25:53.640
This would all happen naturally

01:25:53.640 --> 01:25:56.640
and with a great deal of anxiety, I imagine,

01:25:56.640 --> 01:26:00.640
as history builds to its ever more climactic

01:26:00.640 --> 01:26:02.640
and horrifying crescendo

01:26:02.640 --> 01:26:04.640
and we would all be in the same place.

01:26:04.640 --> 01:26:06.640
We would all be ignorant or very baffled

01:26:06.640 --> 01:26:08.640
about what's going on

01:26:08.640 --> 01:26:13.640
were it not for the institution of shamanism.

01:26:13.640 --> 01:26:18.640
The shaman actually rises into a domain

01:26:18.640 --> 01:26:22.640
where past and future are different areas

01:26:22.640 --> 01:26:25.640
on the same topological manifold.

01:26:25.640 --> 01:26:28.640
It's what's really going on.

01:26:28.640 --> 01:26:30.640
If you think about shamanism,

01:26:30.640 --> 01:26:33.640
it is about predicting weather,

01:26:33.640 --> 01:26:36.640
predicting game movement,

01:26:36.640 --> 01:26:38.640
and curing disease.

01:26:38.640 --> 01:26:41.640
It's as though the members of culture

01:26:41.640 --> 01:26:44.640
are imprisoned in linear time

01:26:44.640 --> 01:26:47.640
and the shaman is not.

01:26:47.640 --> 01:26:49.640
Culture is simply clothing

01:26:49.640 --> 01:26:52.640
upon the human experience.

01:26:52.640 --> 01:26:54.640
But the human organism

01:26:54.640 --> 01:26:56.640
outside the confines of culture

01:26:56.640 --> 01:26:59.640
in a direct relationship to nature

01:26:59.640 --> 01:27:02.640
transcends time and space.

01:27:02.640 --> 01:27:05.640
This was a fact, I believe,

01:27:05.640 --> 01:27:08.640
that was known in prehistory

01:27:08.640 --> 01:27:13.640
and in fact was the source of paleolithic values

01:27:13.640 --> 01:27:15.640
which were not material,

01:27:15.640 --> 01:27:17.640
not linear,

01:27:17.640 --> 01:27:19.640
not surplus-oriented,

01:27:19.640 --> 01:27:21.640
not class-oriented,

01:27:21.640 --> 01:27:24.640
not power-oriented,

01:27:24.640 --> 01:27:26.640
but rather oriented toward

01:27:26.640 --> 01:27:29.640
a kind of egalitarian partnership

01:27:29.640 --> 01:27:31.640
in an environment

01:27:31.640 --> 01:27:34.640
of great material simplicity.

01:27:34.640 --> 01:27:36.640
And human beings lived like that

01:27:36.640 --> 01:27:38.640
for probably a half a million years

01:27:38.640 --> 01:27:41.640
with poetry, with dance,

01:27:41.640 --> 01:27:43.640
with mathematics, with magic,

01:27:43.640 --> 01:27:46.640
with story, with humor,

01:27:46.640 --> 01:27:49.640
but not with the paralyzing

01:27:49.640 --> 01:27:51.640
and toxic artifacts

01:27:51.640 --> 01:27:54.640
of the late-evolving machine-workshipping

01:27:54.640 --> 01:27:56.640
linear fanatic alphabet

01:27:56.640 --> 01:27:58.640
tight-ass straight culture

01:27:58.640 --> 01:28:00.640
that we are a part of.
