For the past 2500 years (since Plato) humanity has worshipped power and reaped its rewards. Freed from the constraints of divine law.
Modern civilization (modernity) is built on power – power over nature and other humans.
Modernity is currently breaching multiple planetary and social boundaries.
Goodness, truth, beauty, justice and equality have all been sacrificed to power.
Resulting in the current meta-crisis.
Collapse of modernity and the natural world is underway and gaining momentum.
In service to power we are trying to prolong modernity and delay collapse – clinging to the past.
Continuing to sacrifice life, love, and creation for power. Grasping at knowledge and technology and eschewing wisdom.
To change this trajectory modernity needs to end ASAP.
But we are addicted to comfort, privilege and lifestyle based on power.
And we are deeply defended regarding them.
Our left brains refusing to implement change until we see a pathway to a ‘better’ future.
We have basked in the light of power for so long we are ill equipped to navigate the darkness that is quickly approaching.
Collapse holds all the cards of this initiation.
The eye of the needle hovers before us.
Choose apparent ‘hardship’ (loss of comfort, privilege and lifestyle) and regain the divine.
Choose life and love.
