What Will Happen in 2012?

<h1>What Will Happen in 2012?</h1>Author: <a title="Shen Gerald" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/shen-gerald/5232.htm">Shen Gerald</a> Many believe that the Year 2012 will be the year that our current era ends. There is much speculations and myths about the year 2012. Many believe that the planet may ascend to another dimension during that time. Also, some others believe that something magical will happen that bring certain people to a better place. 
 
In my opinion, all these scenarios may be too far fetched to be true. People have been taking symbolic interpretations too literally. 
 
However, there is no denying that the planet is indeed undergoing much changes now. Have a look around and you will sense that things are happening at a much more shocking pace. In addition to that, I also strongly believe that human consciousness is about to enter a more enlightened period. This more enlightened condition is perhaps what the new era is really all about. 
 
This transition, which on an individual level, is most probably brought about by a gradual process of realisations and clearing of old habit patterns, resulting in transformation. This should lead to a progressively expanded state that is much less fear-based. My sense is that it will take at least several hundred years for our civilisation to transform itself into a more awakened state. 
 
Below is an elaborations of what I believe entails the transformation process: 
 
1. A series of realisations, occurring at personal and group levels. These realisations bring us closer to understanding the dynamics of consciousness as well as how consciousness is related to our environment. 
 
2. Habit patterns that bind us to certain activities and relationship are being discovered. And additional steps are taken to clear these patterns. In the process, the old activities will become incompatible with the newer state of being. One either gets ejected from the prior situations or move out on his or her own accord. 
 
For example, your job requires you to perform certain things and the driving factor of you performing these thing at this speed is fear. But in the newer state of being, your performances will suffer because you are less fear driven. So... in the end you leave the job or gets fired. In either situation, you get ejected out of the old situation. 
 
The above descriptions are not conclusive and are purely my guesses. In any case, the dynamic probably will be complex and may be inclusive of many other mechanisms as well. 
 
My opinion is that, nothing mystical or magical will happen on 2012. The betterment of civilisation and global conditions will be a gradual process, that is driven by realisations, discoveries and transformation of old ways and habits. 
 
For your necessary discernment.

Are we our own prisoners?

By: Les | 29/11/2009
Sometimes, we are also prisoners of our thoughts and our past deeds. We also have nothing else to look forward to. We only have regrets. At least, we can do something about the conditions, but the prisoners can do nothing. Life can be depressing at times. How to inspire ourselves in such conditions?

By All Means... Keep Moving!

By: nyangu simpungwe | 29/11/2009
Problems and hardships are there for a reason, it is how a human being progresses and develops. They are what we call challenges, so we need to rise against them and not with them; as for kites rise highest against the wind, not with it. Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow as you’d continue flying “with” the challenges. The only chance of soaring is to rise against the challenges, the “wind”. We can only soar by using the tools we already hav

Why I’m Not in the NBA – And What You Can Learn From It

By: Matthew Toone | 28/11/2009
Do you believe that within you can be found every talent and ability necessary to be great in anything? Whether it is playing in the NBA, becoming a millionaire, graduating from an Ivy League school, achieving success as a performer, or being an incredible parent – do you actually believe it is possible? If you don’t, chances are extremely high that you will fail in pursuit of your goal or dream. I failed in my boyhood dream of playing in the NBA – not because I wasn’t born with an innate ...

You Can Become and Accomplish Anything

By: Matthew Toone | 28/11/2009
I have personally found that the vast majority of people are far more scared of accomplishing their dreams than actually failing to achieve them. Being mediocre is certainly easier and less-risky than the work necessary for success in anything. Despite our potential, ideas, and dreams – we allow our fears and doubts to become traitors and the result is always inaction and regret!

Dream Big: Our Dreams Are Useless Until We Do This

By: Matthew Toone | 28/11/2009
What are your dreams? We each have them, and they literally shape our thoughts and hopes. But, do you actually believe your dreams are possible? The unfortunate reality for most of us is that our dreams remain only as thoughts and wishes and never convert into actions. Ask yourself this important question – are you planning on making your dreams a reality someday … or are you actually doing something now to accomplish them?

Motivational & Inspiring Quotes – 20 Thoughts to Inspire Success in Anything

By: Matthew Toone | 28/11/2009
“If we did all the things we are capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves.” ~ Thomas A. Edison “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be … your playing small does not serve the world.” ~ Marianne Williamson

This article is my opinion on why dreams are beneficial.

Symbolism and Presence

By: Shen Gerald | 16/09/2006 | Religion
Our reality seems 'real' and solid, when we 'externalise' experiences. That is, we will feel in a certain way, when we have yet to realise/recognise the root/cause/source of the feeling and experience. They will continue to do so, as long as the experience is viewed 'externally'.

We Live In A System Of Beliefs

By: Shen Gerald | 23/07/2006 | Meditation
In my opinion, we live our life on the basis of beliefs. We, literally live in a huge belief system. So seamlessly integrated (into our world) are some beliefs that most people assume that they are natural and accepted them without questioning.
