I read with interest Kiara Windrider 's post, "Journey of Enlightenment ". I personally can concur with much he says. What is even more interesting is that Kalki 's "diksha" is not necessary. There is a spontaneous combustive awakening happening now in human consciousness as a whole, and it is sparking all over the world.

Perhaps the "morphogenetic field" is strong enough, perhaps the critical mass of enlightenment is approaching. As Kalki says, enlightenment is a neurobiological process, and this describes it well. Enlightenment may be a function of our evolving DNA.

It is hard to say whether our DNA is programmed to kick-in now, or whether the evolving consciousness is causing the DNA to morph and modify. It is a quantum kind of happening. Futurist Barbara Marx Hubbard believes that our nervous system is still evolving, promising a natural capacity for enlightenment .

My own spontaneous enlightenment is not a result of spiritual practice or meditation. I have watched this "happen" to me, with much surprise, delight, and amusement. If this can happen to me, it can happen to anyone.

Surely such a wondrous thing points to a spontaneous enlightenment coursing as an unstoppable tide through our collective consciousness . Spiritual seeking and striving may be unnecessary and ultimately misleading. A gentle allowing and relaxing may be more appropriate.

Having trust in a deeper wisdom inside is highly recommended. What is coming is truly unimaginable and will not fit neatly into the spiritual and intellectual boxes many have defined for themselves.

The beloved traditions, practices, and teachers are becoming transparent and irrelevant before this new cosmic creation. We are, in our collective enlightenment , that new creation. This is not a passive event, but a self-conscious creative act.

We are doing this! We are becoming something that the world has never seen before! The future is rushing to meet us. The sun pours out its en-light-enment.

Every day is a day of miracles.

Some of my 20-something friends are experiencing this awakening and having no interest or background in the traditions of spiritual seeking so endemic in my older generation, are defining for themselves this enlightenment in terms pretty foreign to me, yet meaningful to them--terms defined more from the immersion in their own culture of hyper-cyber-space, virtual reality gaming, rap music , science-fiction, and movies.

This is their particular enlightenment , with no attachment to the defined forms of Eastern and Indian spirituality, or Western either, and with no defined pattern of behavior or practice. They don't care a bit for the old forms so familiar and revered by my generation. They fly out of the Matrix! They spin out of Control! They are wonderful!

They are very hip to the significance of 2012 . They raise their fists in the air and yell, "Yo! Twenty twelve rocks! Yeah!" Kalki says we can have mass enlightenment by 2012 and I believe it! The human family is beginning to know itself as one. A coat of many colors, a self with many pairs of eyes, a unified field, not of theory, but of experienced reality. A humanity awakening as a single planetary being! An evolving hologram!

We are "sleeper agents" coming into awareness, triggering each other into wakefulness.

Ken Carey in his prophetic book, The Third Millennium, states it simply:

"You cannot know yourself in reality without knowing God." The bridge between Creator and Creation has appeared, and it is us. It is truly a wonderful time to be alive!
