Over the next couple of years, two things will happen: first, the planetary environment is going to tank; second, a few of us are going to find our way toward the future by using an ancient tool in a very new way.

This tool is meditation, and the new use of it involves simultaneous meditation in groups. These groups do not need to be in the same room. Participants can be physically anywhere. At first, it is most useful for them to meditate together at the same time. Later, this will not matter, as we learn how to engage in meditation outside of time.

A few weeks ago, I published a journal entry called ‘Change of Being.’ I would like to return to this subject and describe what has become an ongoing process of inner change. I was on Coast to Coast week before last with George Knapp when I had the first experience of just how much I have changed. He announced that Tony Scott had committed suicide by jumping off a bridge. He was the director of my second movie, ‘the Hunger,’ and I have followed his career with great pleasure ever since. While I did not know him personally, I did know that he had tried to get Warner Brothers to do a remake of the Hunger, wanting to bring the skills he had learned over the years to a re-visioning of the film.

There are now a number of plausible end-of-the-world scenarios, enough to justify thinking seriously, and in a new way, what such an event might mean to us. It’s easy to say, oh, well, that’s it, then, we’ll just be gone.

That might not be the whole story.

Before I discuss why I think that, I’d like to run through a few of these scenarios. I’ll begin by saying that December 21, 2012 isn’t one of them. Whether or not this date has any large significance is not presently clear. There is a lot of change taking place and it might, but if there was a world-ending mechanism involved, we would almost certainly see some indications of it by now.

I have been doing the ‘Compassion Walk’ meditation that is in our subscriber section, and am finding that it offers a profound change of energy. For those of you who are not subscribers, it’s quite simple. You do it by directing your attention to your physical sensations and away from your mind while walking among other people, say in a mall or along a sidewalk. (Don’t run into anybody or fall over anything, and certainly don’t do it while driving.) It causes you to turn off, however briefly, the ‘judge’ that is in us all and dominates our functioning when we are among others.
