Taking the Off-ramp from Armageddon: Choosing reverence, connection, and a path to Shambhala

At this time of inversion, when biblical and Hopi prophecies suggest Armageddon is near, might there be another path?

 

Gregg Braden recently shared a video, Are We Following an Ancient Script?  examining biblical prophecies from Psalm 83.  Careful scrutiny, and study of this biblical scripture suggests that some of the specific indicators predicted are starting to come to pass.  There do appear to be affiliations between countries in the Middle East focused on war.  Braden asks whether it might be possible for humanity to choose not to show up for what seems to be a series of scripted battles, and wars.  Braden asks:

 

“Do we, as conscious beings, as spiritual beings, have the right to self determination of our future?  Can we awaken into the point where we can have the thousand years of peace, without the Gog/Magog, without the tribulation, without the Armageddon war?”

 

I love these questions that Greg Braden asks, because they invite us to imagine how good it can get even when we may be observing sequences of events that suggest we may be entering end times.  

 

 

The Inversion

 

Many people have recently noted that we are living in a time of Inversion.  Signs of this inversion include people noticing such things as medical systems harming instead of healing, and national military organizations contributing to overturning instead of defending their own populace.  Some of our most trusted institutions can seem to be doing the exact opposite of their original stated mission, goals, and objectives, and it can seem like the world is experiencing a slow-motion train wreck in real time. 

 

In his book, The Inversion, author Kingsley Dennis invites us to question why an industrial-technology-media complex has become the dominant political and economic force of governance, and how our way of life seems to be moving toward becoming increasingly more morally corrupt and upside-down. 

 

 

From Inversion to Reversion

 

I was talking with a friend this past month who pointed out that the process of giving birth is something akin to an inversion, and after a child is born, a period of reversion back to a prior (less stressful) state of being begins.  Another dear friend of mine is the mother of many children, and I’ve often marveled at how much she savors the sweet time after each child is born, with golden moments of appreciating the mother-child bond, and feeling a magical kind of sweetness in the air.  This mother-of-many appreciates the calm that can come after the storm of birth, and the feeling of fresh new beginnings, divine connection, and loving mother-child connection.

 

Something wonderful can happen when we put these ideas together–starting with the idea where Barbara Marx Hubbard pointed out, Our Crisis is a Birth, and this great Inversion we are sensing can be envisioned as delivering a whole new world for us to savor and treasure and enjoy, like a mother with newborn baby. 

 

 

Rapture, reverence, and Revhumanism

 

Gregg Braden mentions the idea of the Rapture in biblical prophecy, as:

 

“Another reason that so many are examining what’s happening in the Middle East in Israel right now with a magnifying glass is because there is a prophesized event called the Rapture.  The Rapture is being linked with what many now are calling Ascension.  And there’s a whole series of conversations about Ascension that means different things to different people.” 

 

I’ve also talked about the topic of Ascension, linking it to a number of energetic experiences (including such things as experiencing increased synchronicity, repeating patterns of numbers, and ringing in the ears) that is typically accompanied by a powerful expansion of consciousness.  In this process of expansion and spiritual growth people can more clearly see the value in choosing to rise above a pattern of emotional/energetic reactions, such as can be found in the so-called “Victim triangle” or “drama triangle.”  

 

We can witness this for ourselves when we observe the difference between how our day unfolds from a starting point of emotions of fearfulness versus gratitude–we can collect our own personal observational data to illustrate the importance of these foundational states of being.  Numerous studies clearly indicate the value of adopting a regular practice of gratitude, noting that developing heartfelt appreciation and some form of gratitude practice can reshape our brains, uplift our moods, and improve our overall sense of well-being and quality of life.

 

The idea of Revhumanism involves relating with reverence, humility, and empathy with others, with the Earth, and with the Cosmos, inviting us to actuate high-level sovereign agency.  We can observe our thoughts and feelings at higher levels of self, without “having buttons pushed.”  We can rise above “fight or flight” (or freeze) reactive responses, and view events free from anger or anguish about the past or fearful anxiety about the future, feeling connection with our best possible future selves who are loving, joyful, fearless, compassionate, and reverent.   Revhumanism acknowledges that humanity is part of a living, growing Cosmos, with everyone intrinsically having a transcendent divine nature. 

 

 

Taking the Off-ramp

 

Revhumanism invites us to live true to our highest potential of embodying more wisdom than cleverness; more hope than cynicism; more humility than hubris; more empathy than apathy; and more reverence than insolence.  Revhumanism represents a radical invitation for each of us to be the highest level embodiment of consciousness we wish to see in the world.  When we see everyone and everything from the perspective of reverence, doors to adjacent possible realities open where there were no doors before.
