Gregg Braden : Awakening To Zero Point - The Collective Initiation

Gregg Braden's Awakening To Zero Point is all about the process of unprecedented change unfolding within the earth. We are part of the change. Without knowledge of the artificial boundaries of religion, science, or ancient mystic traditions, the change is characterized as dramatic shifts in the physical parameters of Earth accompanied by a rapid transformation in human understanding, perception, and experience. This time is historically referred to as "The Shift of the Ages."

"We are going through a time of tremendous change". With archaeological research and stunning visual evidence, Braden reveals the geophysical shifts predicted centuries ago – how the shift to "zero-point" influences our emotions, immune systems, and even our genetic code – and how each of us can use the Five Essene Tenets of Compassion to help trigger a new era for humankind.

As science witnesses events for which there are no reference points of comparison, ancient traditions say that the timetable is intact; the events of "The Shift" are happening now. Each event carries with it a similar message, and is a by-product of something much more significant than the event itself. During key moments in human history, wisdom has been offered allowing individuals to experience rapid change without fear. This is one of those moments. You are living the completion of a cycle that began nearly 200,000 years ago, and a process of initiation that was demonstrated over 2,000 years ago.

Are these the lost keys to the next phase of human evolution? Gregg Braden invites viewers to watch, listen, and decide for themselves – as he takes them on an unforgettable excursion Beyond Zero Point.

Here is an excerpt ...

Introduction to Awakening To Zero Point....

...My intent in offering this material now is to provide a concise and accurate synthesis of the events unfolding within our solar system, within our world and within each living cell of our bodies, as all are related. It is my goal, and sincere hope, that the information within these pages will provide continuity to our understanding of planetary, human and personal evolution.

Our lives, our day-to-day experiences of pleasure, pain and all that we have ever felt, touched, created or uncreated (nothing is ever destroyed) have occurred as components of an ongoing process. This process is preparing us to accept and gracefully accommodate tremendous change within our world and our bodies. The processes unfolding are about us, of us and for us. Through the offering of the Awakening material, a vocabulary may be remembered and continuity developed within which we may express outwardly that which we are feeling within. In the outward expression, our memory becomes anchored even more firmly into the world, becoming even more accessible to others.

Awakening to Zero Point is intended to offer a context within which to view the phenomenon of our lives and this time in history I believe that we have outgrown the need to compartmentalize our knowing world into artificial boundaries of "religion, "metaphysics or "science. These terms are examples of a language that has attempted to categorize our experience into discrete packages of knowledge. Our journey into the quantum world of the atom, human genetics, the exploration of Earth and space has demonstrated that our imposed boundaries are temporal in nature. In creation there is no geology, physics, biology and chemistry There are simply patterns of energy within patterns of energy, each expressing as observable systems.

Our language and beliefs have divided into many that which is one, contributing to our illusion of separation. There can be no separation in that which is one. Perhaps more accurately, all must be embraced as a portion of the whole in a world of unity Our delineation of these patterns has served us well, bringing us to the point where we see that there are no boundaries in the study of our world. Beyond persuading, convincing or redefining any existing belief system, this text is designed to simply remind you of possibilities.

Though Awakening to Zero Point transcends religion, science and metaphysics you may see how religion, metaphysics and the sciences developed surrounding a core body of information that has been distorted through translations and interpretations. You may ask, if this text is not scientific, metaphysical or religious in its nature, then what is it? I invite you to receive Awakening to Zero Point: The Collective Initiation as information, without category or label, representing all possibilities without the boundaries of what "should be.

We may ask others out of choice, and we no longer need to do so out of necessity All answers relevant to us live within us, as the experiences that we masterfully create as our lives. Our map of truth resides within the living intelligence that breathes as each cell of our bodies, pulsating life force throughout every aspect of our being. We have grown beyond the search that has collectively beckoned to us from our outside world.

Now, in this lifetime of completion, we are reminded that our truth lives within. It has been with us throughout every facet of our journey patiently awaiting the time when we could acknowledge and accept. It is the search that has brought us the lessons, the relationships, the mirror of others so that we could arrive at the point where we are in this moment, back to ourselves.

Almost universally, everyone feels it. Something has changed. Something feels different now, during these days. Everyone feels a shift on some level to some degree. The tension of tumultuous change, poised, positioned, enabled. Some describe it as electric, as a low-level anxiety Others simply state their feeling that something is about to happen, something big! Some individuals feel it rippling throughout every cell in their body perceiving that time, and their lives, are speeding up. Others are experiencing a new kind of confusion, as if nothing in their lives really fits any longer.

Their world is changing so rapidly that they feel out of control, perhaps unable to keep up. To those having difficulty in "letting go and flowing with the change, the feelings may be uncomfortable, even painful. There can be no denying that today in your life, now, is a time of unprecedented change. Regardless of what levels of distinction are used to view world events, the systems that provide the infrastructure to life and society inclusive of personal systems such as health, finance and relationships, are in a state of dynamic flux. Something is happening!

Time Is Speeding Up : Evolution 2012

Some people believe time is speeding up. This idea is based on observation that the difference between subjective and objective assessments of time have increased over the past decade. For instance, time seems to be flying by faster than ever, or what used to take several years to accomplish now seems to be taking place in just a couple. In the 2012 paradigm, this idea serves to correlate the prophesied dissolution of time with immediate personal observations. I believe two simultaneous phenomena are contributing to this perception.

The first is that there has been an ongoing reduction in novelty among trivial trends. This means an increase in routine and repetition in all things mundane, both personal and cultural. Television and internet have also become more deeply embedded in modern life, increasing the amount of time we spend being mentally asleep during the day, decreasing the quality and quantity of memories. Due to distraction, repetition, and routine, the recent past offers less memorable content to reflect upon and thus appears shortened. When consulting the calendar we therefore notice the days flying by.

The second is that there has been a simultaneous increase in novelty among spiritually significant trends. Rate of growth among receptive individuals in terms of awareness and emotional maturity is accelerating. You may have changed more in the past two years than you did in the five years before that. When more personal growth is crammed into a shorter amount of time, it appears that things have picked up pace and more ground is being covered more quickly.

The combination of “days flying by” and “having come so far in so few years” contributes to our perception that time is speeding up. These may both be symptomatic of the shift from 3D to 4D if we recognize that linear time is giving way to nonlinear time, that priorities are shifting from the trivial to the spiritual in accordance with the 2012 and related paradigms. Linear time is measured in increments of trivialities such as astronomical or atomic motions, while nonlinear time is delineated in increments of freewill progressions. With a shift of priorities, trivialities fade into a repeating background pattern while spiritual events (leaps in awareness and maturity) increase in their frequency and novelty, both of which lead to the perception that time is speeding up for different reasons.

We may extrapolate this accelerating trend into the future and conclude that in the end, linear time will mean nothing and nonlinear time will mean everything. Or to put it another way, trivialities and the calendar will cease to exist for us altogether while increments of spiritual progress and freewill choices will be the new standard.

There is another interesting trend worth noting, which is that the more recently a person awakens from programmed sleep and into the pursuit of truth, the more rapid his or her growth from that point onward. I know several people who started their paths in the 1960s and 70s, and it took them about two decades to complete the first pass of their research, to come full circle and finally see the bigger picture. My awakening began in 1993 and I did not reach that point until 2003, so about a decade. Those I know who began in 2001 reached it by 2004, so three years. Now I am coming across people who are doing it in under a year, sometimes just a few months.

Part of that trend is due to the increased availability, quality, diversity, and accessibility of information pertaining to matters of truth. Those of the 60s and 70s had books, newsletters, telephone, personal meetings and mail correspondence. Then came fax machines, personal computers, BBS networks, personal printing and photocopying. Then came easy duplication of storage media, the internet with its websites, forums, and radio shows, and now we have broadband internet, wifi spots, p2p filesharing and free video streaming. For all its downsides, recent technology has served to accelerate the awakening, albeit indirectly and at the risk of de-socialization.

Another factor behind that trend may involve the fact that it doesn’t matter when or how we start, but when and where we end up. In other words, it doesn’t matter that someone started early but took longer while another starts late and through some crash courses has reached similar levels of awareness. What matters is that when the time comes, people are on the same page and capable of carrying out what they came here to do, and so those who start late will indeed have to learn more quickly to be ready in time.

I think both the technological and metaphysical parts are related, the first serving the latter as part of some greater plan. And yes, I am aware that Ahrimanic/NWO forces are behind the flowering of technology, that the internet is the perfect device for profiling dissenters and so on, however the dark side takes a gamble with everything it does and risks having its means unexpectedly judo-flipped into accomplishing unintentionally positive ends.

Now if we project this trend into the future, we can see that there will be an increasing number of people awakening, and they will have to get with the picture quicker than ever, perhaps due to the simple spreading of awareness among those desperate for answers in increasingly desperate times. This suggests that demand will skyrocket along with the availability and quality of information, but supply can only meet demand if there are more sources available to provide it, more people refining and providing it. We cannot expect technology like the internet to stick around forever, and so dissemination of guidance and information may increasingly shift towards personal rather than technological methods.

In a practical sense, for us this means we would do well to initially become better educated on matters of truth and grow more skilled in communicating them. It is a good idea to become more streamlined, discerning, and capable of providing primary sources like books, websites, videos, etc… to the receptive when the occasion arises. Why? Both to increase our capacity to meet the potential future demand, and to presently act as a channel for synchronicity to trigger the awakening and empowerment of others.
