Shifting to a better age
The universe is changing, says a new book
This is a different kind of self-help book. It seeks to help you not only in
current
times, but also in the future. Ritana Books recently came out with "Incredibly
Believable - Everything you wanted to know about The Shift but did not kno w
whom to
ask" by Sunny Satin. The late Sunny Satin, PhD, was a hypnotherapist and past
life
regressionist whose work had a large following in India and abroad. He passed
away
in November 2006, four days after finishing the manuscript of this book.
On opening the book you realise the author is talking about concepts discussed
in
every culture of the world, though shrouded in mysticism. The Apocalyse, the
End of
Time, the change of yugas - all these are phrases we have heard about in
scriptures
or as part of cultural images with which we grew up. What they mean, and
whether we
can do anything to negotiate our lives through them, are not questions that
occupy
most of us in the humdrum of daily life.
Unlike doomsday theorists, this work does not seek to create panic or imply
that the
world will come to an explosive end. It instead speaks of the positive changes
that
will occur, stating that the forces of light will overcome the forces of
darkness
eventually. Given the times we live in, the book paints an almost utopian view
of
the world once the 'New Age' kicks in - which, according to calculations, will
be
approximately in 2029. Even earlier, major changes will begin by 2012. For the
diehard rationalist, the work could as well have been titled "incredibly
unbelievable". But the references to quantifiable or empirical scientific
phenomena
are also plain enough.
Who's happy?
Also, the author was neither a panic monger nor a commercially driven trouble
shooter. He entices one to leaf through by specifically asking one not to read
the
book if the answer to "Are you totally happy with your life the way it is?" and
a
number of related questions, is an unequivocal yes. For the serious reader its
frequent use of italics, exclamation marks and font changes to attract
attention
give it a simplistic veneer, but the aim is apparently to make it readable to
as
large a number of people as possible.
"The Shift" refers to the increase in the Schumann Resonance, or the basic
resonance
frequency of the earth. The author phrases it as "the basic heartbeat of the
Earth"
and explains that since 1983, this value, measured in Hz, has continuously
increased. "That means in the year 2013 the world will be vibrating at least 50
per
cent faster than it was in the year 1983," he writes.
The increased frequency will bring the earth on par with other planets
vibrating at
frequencies much higher than the earth is presently vibrating at. The
concurrent
natural and scientific changes on the planet and on humans will result in
heightened
abilities and a civilisation that operates on a more spiritual and egalitarian
level
than now.
Since hardly anyone can deny that a world of more light and love would be
preferable
to the current one, and across the world individuals and groups are rejecting
the
old order based on hierarchy, fear and force, this book is likely to be widely
read
and discussed.
