Do you guys think we'll make it off the planet?

Leary really seems to think the whole function of the DNA process is to get off the planet and 'go home' and that acid is a great aid to all this.

He also postulates that 1946 was the middle point of this process.

I can't help but wonder if perhaps the middle point also marks the hinge point for the 'external' pursuit of this 'home'. And perhaps getting off the planet is only going to be a mental thing. Because it seems like our bodies are highly imbued with the earth and there not really meant to function off the earth.

But mentally, as time progresses, we will click on more and more circuits collectively making it seem like we aren't on earth anymore. Just like aliens walking around here and it will be paradise here.

I also wonder if, in combination with that whole 'time is speeding up' thing. If even though 1946 was the hinge point, the end point will be 2012 because time has been going faster and faster since 1946.

Of course though, we could get off the planet in a few hundred years and the whole 'mentally getting off the planet' was, just as Leary postulated, a preparation for mentally being able to deal with space travel. But still I have to wonder, what are we even gonna do once we get off, it seems pointless. Wouldn't it kind of suck floating around in space in an artificial enviroment.
Which makes me think 'getting off the planet' is nothing but a metaphor to cause psychological change. Getting our minds off the planet.

I think of this because, so many things out there right now seem to be going with that whole flow of 'we are getting off the planet'. We are space travel, we are super important. And I can't help but wonder if that whole ordeal is nothing but a really fancy art piece to say "start thinking in space people"

 

sounds a lot like the theory in the celestine prophesy by james redfield--i think you'd really dig this book. it talks all about enlightenment spreading through the masses and everyone's vibration rising together to a point where we have control of the weather and manifesting everything through thoughts therefore changing existance on earth as we know it.

 

thats interesting you mention that
cause I was thinking just the other day that it seems plausible in that lunatic sort of way that we could control absolutely everything by our will

but to change things as large as the weather or whatnot it would have to be one massive concious effort

but then I was thinking, it's not that we ever gain the ability to do these things. It's just that we become so aware of all the underlying forces of energy and chaos that all are actions become perfectly attuned and harminous that it seems like we do these things, control the weather or whatnot.

It was Sami Vivekanada that said 'the purpose of the yogi is to control the movement of the planets, control the rotation of the sun'. That you should have the energy of 'I will make mountains crumble by my very intention and will'. Which that whole thing accompanied with the entire concept of 'letting go of ego' in the same book. It seems to me that its a process of like, forcing your brain to become aware of the most powerful energies, by conciously trying to control them. But as you get there, you have to let ego go. So then you just become harminous with the energy. In essence, you are moving the sun, but thats because your harmonized with the energy that did it, even before you were aware of it.

I think a mass enlightenment isn't so much that we'll "do" some thing. Just, we'll notice what it is we always have been doing.

 

GREAT line! the whole post was great...but THAT line was just...AWESOME! i read it like 3-4 times in a row.

3xi & i had a discussion about ego today--he was saying that without our ego we wouldn't exist--there would be no "i" or "you"--if we totally let go of our ego we wouldn't still be here.

i guess that's when we all get the the whole "we are one" deal...we all go back to being "one" as opposed to this girl, that guy, this saint, that killer etc. in essence though we are all those things because we are all one big collective anyway right? one of those acid mind loops i love.

question is: do we continue this on earth just from a different resonance/perspective or do we transcend to another realm completely? celestine prophesies kind of made it sound like we did it here on earth but in a magical way. those that were super high resonating would be invisible to those that are of lower vibration. trippy concept--kind of like different dimentions in the same space? the book doesn't get into specifics and i haven't read the subsequent books in that series--hmm...maybe a trip to the library is in order for me!

 

the way that we are constantly destroying our planet suggests that we must plan to get off of it at some point in the future.

 

or those that destroy the planet may just destroy themselves in the process

Mara-aum, on acid I had this distinct feeling that I would be cast into a new dimension and be there forever, in a non-physical dimension. Never able to come back. Which I did obviously come back, but that sensation and thought of the experience has stayed with me for a long long time. It always made me worry. Which makes me think it is completely plausible there could be an ascension into a completely new astral dimension. This is essentially what heaven is though.
But I do think alot like Leary in that, the physical manifestation, the play of earth does seem to be a pinnacle manifestation thats gonna become more and more glorious. Which makes me think that if existence in purely transcendental realms is possible, it will be temporary, based on cycles so that the visitors of these realms bring it back here. Essentially making that whole heaven on earth thing. You know visit heaven, bring pieces back here.

Cause theres another whole aspect to our human form. The human form seems to me to be intristically tied with mother earth. I think if your consciousness still resides in the energy formation of 'human' then you are still intertwined with Gaian consciousness and aiding it, your still earthly bound even if you don't reside on earth so much.

 

leary doesnt think anything at all. he has no ideas or opinions. hes dead. a bunch of ashes in a space craft floating into oblivian for eternity. sorry, dont know if you thought he was alive or just had grammatical errors. thought i would point that out

 

The way were going now mankind will be gone before we get the technology to leave our solar system, and live. kna'm sayn

 

I think Leary was just a blooming idiot. He has no concept of the impossibilites of space travel, or the purpose of even leaving. Let's just clean up the planet we have.

Now if it was a metaphor, it's genius. Hahaha...

 

i use to think that there was no reason to go into outer space in this physical form. i agree with the post above that we should take care of our own planet and stop destroying it but i also believe that the world will eventually go back into another ice age at some point on its own anyways. every once and a while the earth does a world wide cleansing and if we want to evolve as far as we imagine is possible then we better figure out how we are going to survive what’s coming. thankfully we don't need to save the entire human race to survive extinction.

oh, and timothy leary was a great man, a genius and a key person ensuring the widespread availability of LSD.

 

yup--makes sense to me! kind of like some spirits of those that have passed on linger, or ET's visit...why not those that cross the veil and come back? i remember after the first time i ever did lsd i descibed my old self-the "me" that existed before. it was like i could never be the same woman i was the day before lsd. i came back different-and therefore my footprint i leave is now different.

 

I do the same shit. I made a complete 180 turn in my life. I went from only caring about myself and being a greedy person into changing into something that just exists to love.

 

if the soviets exited id have to say possibly they were the first people in space and had good space program but....Reagan fucked it up
