Meditation, serious meditation, not just to calm your mind, but to act as the centerpiece of a life of creative daring—that is what this book is about.
When we think of meditation and the contemplative life we often think of a life in retirement or seclusion from the world. Such a life sometimes seems necessary in the face of the accelerating and often baffling realities of the present day world, the world of the closing of the cycle. But to think of meditation as the core of a life devoted to the exploration of cosmic consciousness, and not just as some kind of ‘escape” from the world, or as the exclusive activity of people who wear robes and take vows, that is something different. Not that there isn’t a place for all of these styles and approaches to life and meditation. They are all necessary, and meditation in this way acts as ventilation for a world mind otherwise ready to totally implode on itself.
Galactic meditation, however, is the creative medium of an exploration of mind and consciousness grounded in the new knowledge of the Law of Time. This knowledge is known as the synchronic order. This knowledge presupposes spiritual intention and a higher meaning to life, perhaps enlightenment itself. Enlightenment is a key part of the spiritual journey, but not all of it. As dynamic beings we are engaged in a process of evolution. We have not stopped on our journey. We are really only getting going. The supermental higher spiritual level of the adventure of the evolution of life and consciousness still awaits us. Galactic meditation addresses our evolving spiritual need as we outgrow the outworn forms of 5000 years of accumulated history.
Meditation and the spiritual practices that we thus far know about were all evolved in a particular historical context. They were necessary in order to offset the deleterious effects of the worldly life of a historical social order that became increasingly imbalanced. But what if the historical context was gone? What if there was no reason to become world weary and need to seek the contemplative life? What if it were completely understood that the core of life was already spiritual, and the point of meditation was to spiral into the higher dimensions? In fact, what if it were understood that meditation or the experience to which meditation opens us, was the very ground of existence, of all of life, of the reality of the cosmos itself?
From such a perspective, galactic meditation is nothing more than the process of refamiliarizing ourselves with the foundations of the divine life, our original home, and source of our final return.
As the Closer of the Cycle my responsibility is to provide comprehensive guidelines for humanity to conclude the cycle of history by its closing December 21, 2012. This text, and its companion, Living through the Closing of the Cycle, fulfill a small part of my obligation to humanity. To accomplish this mission I am obliged to present my teachings which maybe summarized simply in the following way
1. Change the calendar, change the time. 2. Know your mind, free your soul. 3. Don’t pollute, surrender to the Absolute.
Galactic meditation assumes and expands on these three simple points. May this text serve as an inspiration as you come to remember your galactic mind.
