Accepting Our Ignorance
Living in the digital society with such profound scientific discoveries on top of an already hyper-industrial society, it is easy to see how humanity could come to the conclusion that we’re the cats meow. We ain’t! Let me use a tricial example. Until October 15, 1971 we thought the the Nile was the longest river in the world. Then Loren McIntyre and a local Indian guide discovered the Choquecorao ridge at 18,200 ft. which revealed that it was where the Amazon river actually started thus causing National Geographic to proclaim the Amazon as the longest river on planet earth.
What else do we believe that isn’t so?
How many theories from ancient societies do wew throw our because our linear Western mind just can’t get it. How easily we discard evidence about Lumeria and Atlantis because it doesn’t fit in with our mental BOX that we’ve built. It doesn’t jive with what our history books say, etc. Did Jesus really walk through walls? How did the Mayans know that there were black holes and a galactic center two thousand years before we did?
Speaking of the remote Amazon region, can we just automatically write off the little-known Mayoruna’s because they have this weird paraadigm that they believe they are actually jaguars living in human bodies? Mel Gibson brought some of their customs to the silver screen not too long ago showing them wearing cat tattooes- and whiskers.
And because we’d not yet discovered Atlantis, Arkansas until 1951, which is now thought to be the oldest city in America, does that mean that Atlanteans did not exist? Because we can’t find the exact location of Lemuria, does that mean that such folklore and legends are without factual basis?
Because we’ve never experienced the crossing of the galactic plane, the entering into the interstelalr plasmic field that many scientists lie ahead, or that a Planet X (Nibiru?) has not been physically spotted (yet) means they don’t exist? If there is anything that we should embrace going foreard it is that we don’t know it all and in fact we don’t know what we don’t know. Now that’s very hard in the egoic society within which we live today. But, by so embracing this paradigm we just might be surprised what we have yet to learn.
It could be that we have little time to learn as well.
Can you say 2012?
As a spiritual-futurist, I have a BA degree majoring in history. One cannot know the future without knowing the past which holds clues to what is on the horizon. The world is in such a rapid expansion of knowledge that we are close to entering a tipping point that will forever change earth as we know it.
