Quote:let's take a wide-eyed look at how the Ra Material became twisted -yet again- into a false prophecy about 2012.
I am not sure there is a 'false prophecy' here except by those who blatantly claimed we'd "ascend" on December 21st, 2012. At the time that David was saying such things, many of us were saying such things (independent of his influence). As we came closer and closer to the window, everyone started adjusting their viewpoints toward a gradual shift (just like David did). The reality is that until we find ourselves in these spaces, we can only work with our understandings and distortions.
I think the 'prophecy' aspect really got played on because the world is not working as intended and it's getting worse in certain ways that we can see very clearly. It is also getting better in many ways that we cannot easily see happen. I think the reasons the prophecy aspect as so played up was because we are hitting a social and cultural wall in many respects. People expected a 'shift' because we need one; the way we are living on this planet is not resonating with the mass consciousness. Therefore, there is a calling for a 'shift' of sorts to make things right. This is not new in history; there are both tipping points and breaking points that have been played out many times before. As much as many would like to be diminuitive towards these things, labeling them as conspiracy or what-have-you, the reality is that our economic and social systems are not perfect. We should not shoo away those who are trying to bring that to light. Instead, we should empower them to make real changes with real consequences that can be enjoyed.
This whole 12/21/2012 may end up being a major 'wake up' point in humanities story. Just like the revolutions found in our history didn't happen on a single day or moment to occur, we may look back 25 years from now and say 'that's where we turned the corner and started to do things that make sense." And if that is the case, it will have been amazing to watch. That is the point of harvest, for myself - the turning of a chapter... and in my experience the start of most chapters are not always that exciting. Sometimes you gotta wait for things to heat up.
