Celestials: The Emergent Species - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

It's time for something new. Something else. Five minutes of watching the news will show that a transition is occurring that is far more sweeping even than the last mass extinction event when the dinosaurs were wiped out. At that time, the blackboard got erased so that a new class could begin. This time, the blackboard itself is being removed. We have graduated from this class.

Physical reality was training wheels, for millions, even billions of years. What a school this has been! But contemporary physics is showing us that it never was what we thought it was. What we always thought was rock solid is now known to be energy, psychological. Virtual, even. More like watching a movie, or playing a video game. The world is beginning to resemble a holodeck, custom designed for each individual's educational and entertainment needs. Showing us the contents of our consciousness like a living, moving mirror. Every individual, every mountain, every star is showing us an aspect of ourselves. Even a holocaust, a apocalypse -- even a mass extinction event -- is simply showing us who and what and where we are. We are being told it is time to go. The final exam was, in fact, grasping the fact that THE WORLD IS WHO WE ARE.

From now on, wherever we go, we will know this truth. That our environment is simply an extension of us, like a second body. We will love this second body as we love ourselves. We will carry this world-self with us wherever we go now. Nothing is lost. A new meta-awareness has been bestowed upon us, like a new species. Heavenly, bright, not of this world. An ethereal embodiment of love. The dinosaurs had to be eradicated to make room for us. And we had to be eradicated to make room for: the CELESTIALS.
