The World is Changing…Are You on the Transition Team?

By Paul Lenda

Staff Writer for Wake Up World

The only constant in existence is change. When we resist change, we create conflict within ourselves. There is no stopping change from occurring, which is something we should always remember. Otherwise, we are resisting the very dynamics of Reality.

Change can be seen in two ways: as something that happens to us and as something that we initiate. Both are a part of the reality which we experience. We are powerful change agents and catalysts. Massive changes sometimes occur because of millions, or even billions of people making similar small changes within their lives. Regardless of whether macrocosmic forces are at place in those changes, such as cycles of time where there are golden ages and dark ages, a collective consciousness has the power to fundamentally transform its shared reality.

What Is Changing?

The world is changing. We can see it all around us. When I say this, I refer to the thoughts and actions of people today. Consider the follow examples of how the world is changing:

  • People are more conscious of everything they consume (physically and mentally) and making decisions based on that.
  • A decentralization of everything, such as financial systems, news, music, and energy grids.
  • The surge in use and establishment of renewable energy sources, both on the individual and municipal levels.
  • The significant decrease in being a part of dogmatic and authoritarian religious systems.
  • People overall are making decisions for what to support and use in their lives based on how their actions will affect society and the environment.

When you look at all of these consciousness shifts within the collective consciousness, you see that they are all based on an embodied understanding that we are all part of an interconnected web, where  each component is connected, yet sovereign. Everyone and everything affects everyone and everything else. The myth of “rugged individualism” is dying and it is being replaced with an authentic perception of Reality’s dynamics.

Why Are These Changes Occurring?

There are a number of reasons why these changes are occurring. This is by no means a complete list.

  • The Internet has connected people all over the world to one another, for the first time, while also providing unfettered access to practically all of humanity’s knowledge, for the first time.
  • The explosion of the participation in consciousness-expanding practices, such as meditation, yoga, and energy work modalities like Qi Gong.
  • The increase in effective use of “alternative” forms of physical, mental, and emotional healing.
  • The increasing use of ethnobotanical medicines, such as serotonin-activating psychedelics and empathogen-enactogens.
  • People are more aware that we are living in a conscious, creative, and evolving Universe/Multiverse.
  • People are more aware of how their consciousness has a causal influence on their reality.
  • Subtle macrocosmic forces not entirely understood in 3D terms in their entirety.

With the experiential proof that people all over the world are having of new ways of approaching things working for them, people are quickly shifting towards applying those things into their daily lives. Let’s face it, a lot of what the mainstream and dominant culture and society have dictated and reinforced is not working. Plenty of it is even self-destructive and suppressing the human consciousness field. It is a surprise in itself that it hasn’t all collapsed in a more intense way, given how discordant it is. However, I believe that humans are more intuitive and powerful than they believe they are, which may be one reason why we are bypassing a dark and sudden implosion.

There are billions of people who are applying any one of the things I listed above into their lives. Every person that makes a change shifts the energy of the collective noosphere just a little bit. Now imagine hundreds of millions, or even billions, doing so in some way. I have been talking about collective shifts arising from personal shifts for over a decade. Back then, all of the things I mentioned before were only beginning to show signs of emerging. Now, they are essentially part of the mainstream, being applied by an astonishing amount of people.

All of these signs point to there being an incredibly bright future, if we can shine a bit more light on the shadows within the collective experience and create a world where all thoughts and actions are based on how they will affect ourselves and others.
