Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 In the last chapter of the book, the author suggest that “toward the end of your time in the cocoon, you begin to see ripples in the Universal ocean, movement in the ‘Earth Environment’ template; and sometimes it’s fun to speculate – in a general sort of way – where those ripples might be heading. I’m seeing a couple ripples I want to focus on for a few minutes before I end this book, simply because I find some of this stuff fascinating.” “The first ripple I see is that the drama and conflict and pain and suffering and war and violence and hardship in the 'Earth Environment' template are actually increasing across the world, despite – or perhaps, as explained in Chapter Eighteen, in part as a result of – the resistance of more and more 'peaceworkers.' Some of the 'developed' countries haven’t been so hard hit yet, but they will be as the global economic system becomes more chaotic. It seems like every day the news is full of more deaths from war and violence, and from natural disasters as well. More people are out of work around the world, more barely living from hand to mouth, more losing their homes, more with no idea how they or their families will survive. More economies are failing, more governments are collapsing or being challenged, and more theories of everything are falling by the wayside. For me, however, this is not a 'bad' thing at all.” “Ripple #2, going in the opposite direction, is that there are also signs more and more Players are waking up from their dreamstate, or at least waking up within their dreamstate. Now the interesting question is: What if a large number of Players were to leave the movie theater; make their way through their cocoon; let go of their judgments, beliefs, opinions, and fears; and were able to perceive this new frequency range? What effect would that have on the 'Earth Environment' template in The Field – the one the Infinite I’s use when creating holographic experiences for their Players?”
