dreaming our world into being

Traditionally a shaman is tasked with keeping the tribe healthy by predicting the future accurately. To do so the shaman steps into alternate dimensions usually in dream time. It is the shaman's role role then to dream a world into being. 

The Maya believed in cyclical and not linear time, where all is suspended in nothing and everything happens all at once. They call it Time of No Time, where we can go in any direction we want by dreaming it. Our dreams can shift the course of the world, in a moment and for all eternity. 

These are Kenny Ausubel’s opening remarks at the National Bioneers Conference:

[W]e stand at the end of prehistory. Nature is deregulating human affairs faster than a lobbyist can buy a politician. Global weirding is upon us.

We’re in the endgame of the Dim Ages: the collision between the state of nature and the nature of the state. Our civilization is a failed state.

The big wheels are turning. We face a reckoning: transform or perish. It’s emergence in an emergency.

There’s as much cause for hope as for horror.
