I do not think that what the world needs is more fear or dread. Because of this, I have seldom told anyone a dream I had over thirty-five years ago. I have figured that unless I have something to offer towards avoiding the possible outcome pictured in the dream, there was no use making things worse and more painful by being a prophet of doom. Besides, how can I be sure it was not just a creation of my own unsettled mind, not a fore-telling of the future?

Not that both might not be the case. Enough unsettled minds have a way of producing events that do fall out in the physical world as well. If knowing the truth will prevent at least some unimaginable pain and anguish by preparing for it as much as possible, and lessoning the intensity of the events, justifiable fear and concern might be turned into purposeful, useful actions.

The message of the man in the dream was this: unless those who understand the possible result of catastrophic events now increasing in frequency and intensity, and DO what they know to do, and can do, to see that as many as possible survive them, there will be no life left on earth.  

As to when, he said only, "In a surprisingly short amount of time." These events will build in frequency and power until they culminate in a three-and-half year period of utter chaos and anarchy, with disruption of everything  we have become accustomed to and dependent upon. The open question is not whether these things I saw occurring as he described them  will occur, but whether or not anyone, even any life, survives what will occur. 

 

 

 the still open question, at least at the time of the dream. We either do, or do not do what we know and can do to see that some survive. If we do not, the outcome is certain.

There .... that's it. It gets no worse, or disturbing than this. But then what could be more so? Now ... how to live with, and what to do, with such information? I have asked this over and over each day all these years. That is, at a minimum, around 12,000 times. The answer has come down to: only what I can do, today. And I assure you, that does not seem like a whole lot, to date.

As the man in my dream described what was going to occur, I experienced the events exactly as if I were there, either reading or hearing about them, or watching them on TV (as I did the leveling of the World Trade Center, the Sumatra Tidal Wave, and Katrina) and also being on location for some of them ... these things were happening world-wide, here in the USA and abroad.  Fortunately, I think for me anyway, most of the specific details were lost within a few minutes of awakening as can happen with most dreams. No one could function well, or would want to, with these immediate feelings and images in mind each moment of every day.

At the end of the dream, this man took me to a small group of persons, and left. When I introduced myself, giving my full name as this man had done when he first walked up to me in the dream, they laughed-out-loud, and someone said, "Oh no you are not, you are ...." giving the name of a man with whom I was playing the student-role to his 'guru'-role, and modeling my life after at the time of the dream. Obviously I had not 'found' myself and my own direction, following someone else's.

I was completely at loss as to what to offer or say about what I had just been shown, and woke up, in a daze. I sometimes still feel much the same way, though I see a few things that have occurred in my life since then ... a few skills gained , some knowledge and developed interests which might be relevant to surviving such a time.  But there are very few 'real' life, 3-d examples or models extant around me, none on such a scale that might make a difference whether life becomes extinct on earth or not! The responsibility I feel would be less had I not had this dream, though I at the time, I had been wondering for what purpose I was here. I hadn't expected this.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I did and still do recall clearly statements that he emphasized strongly about thesedescribed and my envisioned events. I think they are worth sharing.  Listed, they are:

1) These occurances are not to be taken as a matter of punishment from God or supernatural forces.  They are all instead strictly cause-and-effect consequences of our human choices ... choices already made, many consequences already unavoidable now. The important thing is what we DO now to help as many as possible survive them.

2) The still open question is whether or not any life will survive these events, not whether, or how, to prevent or escape them. The answer to this question is again only the direct consequence of human choices and whether or not what we do or do not do ensures survival of both human beings and other creatures.  This is now up to us alone.

There will be a period of increasing frequency and magnitude of 'natural' and social political events culminating in a three-and-one-half year period of utter chaos and anarchy. He actually said, everyone will go insane. Unless measures are taken, there will be no life left surviving at the end of this 3 1/2 year period.

3) The outcome is NOT to be considered as predetermined, predestined or' Fate'. Instead, it will again be the result of human choice ... very simple and straightforward ... if adequate actions are not taken, no life will be left.   If enough is done (true at least at the time of the dream) enough can survive to carry on future developments upon the earth. Otherwise, human incarnation will no longer be an option or opportunity since obviously there will be no bodies left to procreate.

4) And finally, no supernatural intervention can be counted on, or will occur, to change the outcome ~ only consequences of our choices and actions. His message to me and anyone else that cares about the outcome, was to act as if it depends totally upon us, since indeed it does.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I guess anyone hearing this has to decide based on his or her own information and experience whether this is nonsense or that it might just be so. Jeshua is reported in the NT to have predicted such a period "Unlike any that has happened before", telling of the exact type of events I saw unfolding in the dream. The headlines of the day also seem to me to be ever closer in depicting such developments.  

At the time I had this dream, in the middle 70's, little or no mention was being made of global warming, at least I had not heard it, though environmental concerns were certainly on the rise. I wondered what could be the source of such dire natural events, and yet be the result of man's choices alone. Do humans cause tidal waves, earthquakes, meteors, or sunspots on the sun? Well, the latter is indeed suggested by Edgar Cayce, that the consciousness of man does directly effect what occurs on the sun, such as sun spot activity. But as far as direct cause and effect for most 'natural' calamities, we think of untoward effects as being more a matter of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Certainly our choices do have a bearing on when and where we are. We even choose to live n places we know the probability is quite high we will 'suffer' earthquakes, floods and other disasters, based on previous history. No one of course can feel completely safe, anywhere they choose to live.

Now, learning the effects that are coming to light about our choice to burn fossil fuels and spread them on our land and in our water, and the direct results of melting ice caps, changing ocean currents, violent storms, and even causing ice ages in some places and global warming over all ... it is MUCH easier for me to accept that what this man told me in my dream could be so.

Respected scientist such as James Lovelock are saying some of the same things.  Today i read an article where he suggest we might best use our time now focusing on how we are going to survive what is coming upon us, rather than trying to stop the inevitable. This is the exact implication of what the man in this dream told me when he said that the only still open question was whether or not anyone would survive, not whether it was going to happen.

I would think however, as much as it is possible, it would  be useful as well while we can to try to live in ways that do not make things any worse, especially when there are obvious alternatives.

 I think it most likely, that both activities can be accomplished simultaneously. Learning how to most healthfully and efficiently grow ones own food, store it, restoring the soil instead of further poisoning it and the life that lives in it and on it offers a good example. We need not be dependent on the agri-business that survive off of such activities as killing insects, worms, and the tremendous plethora of microorganisms in healthy soils, all which aid plant growth, the greatest sequesters of C back not the soil.  This is how the coal and oil got there in the first place.

In fact, if Allen Yeomans Of Priority One ---We Can Stop Global Warming calculations are correct, if concerted effort is made to just restore and increase soil fertility just 1.6 % world wide, in ten years all the extra CO2 introduced into the atmosphere by man since the beginning of the industrial revolution could be again be absorbed into the soil. Simultaneous to this, all burning of fossil fuels must stop, and never be undertaken again, since this will only work once. Use the valuable oil and coal for other purposes, 'agriculture' NOT being one of them.  He proposes that nuclear energy along with the use of ethanol and biodiesal fuels for autos and power plants must be taken full advantage of, and if they are, most of present day life styles could be maintained and shared all over the world.

But the big IF to this, if it is true, will we do what is required NOW for this to happen. Ten years may be too late, if not already.  With the efforts and mega bucks behind fossil fuel industry doing whatever it can to see that this does not occur, and token measures proposed and passed by industry linked governments (such as only a 20% reduction in emissions the next 20 years .... well, I can see how the prophecy of this man in my dream and what I myself saw occurring is most likely to be the case. It is being widely recognized now that things are progressing much faster than the experts thought possible, not taking into account exponentially increasing self serving cycles such as increases methane emissions from melting permafrost and changing ocean temperatures and salt concentrations.

Lovelock predicts before the end of this century the only childbearing persons will be those living in the Northern Arctic regions, billions having perished in desert-like climates, famines and extreme mass exterminating weather and flooding. In the meantime, there will be many saying this all a hoax, or at best,terribly mistaken. Having had this dream, and now seeing what I consider rational men drawing the same conclusions, I feel more confidant in speaking up and offering my 2 cents about what can be done about it.

I recognize how much I have not done that I probably could have, all these years, seeing these events increase in frequency and intensity. Not so much for myself, since at my age, life obviously grows short regardless of what happens. I do have grandkids, and feel I owe whatever I can do for all kids and what I can repay for what I have gained have gained from this earth experience. Besides, I may want and need to come back again myself. How could I do that if no men or women live here anymore, let alone, no life left on the surface of the earth?

When family members, and few of my acquaintances pay little or no attention to anything I say about it, in fact soon tire of it, let alone take steps to prepare, I have rationalized not doing more. Now my wife listens closer to my deliberations, and does not object when I spend time building an underground storm shelter. She helps me a great deal in learning better how to garden, and as always, to maintain a positive attitude and hopeful outlook towards life. I figure now that I must be able myself to practice what I preach before anyone else is going to listen.

What to do? was/is a good question. This fellow certainly did not tell me anything about this, leaving it to my choice. Of most primary importance is probably ones overall view of the world and life. Most of the formative and surprising dreams I have had (two others here recorded - Everything dream and Spaceship dream) occurred before this one. It is almost as if, now you know enough, here is your task. Do this, then more will be given or Seen. Things are fine in heaven, in 'the higher worlds'.  It's what's occurring here on earth that needs attention.

And I am fortunate. I have the use of four acres of earth, twenty-five chickens, a great dog and help-mate, a shovel and a few other tools, and a very small social security check that is deposited each month in my bank account. I spent yesterday planting seeds in the greenhouse I built last summer from mainly recycled materials. Soon, Spring will be here and I can transplant the plants into the garden instead of having to buy them from the store. We have come to rely a lot on the food we grow ourselves. It's hard to think about all those millions who are solely dependent on the grocery stores, particularly in the cities.

There is now talk of a possible bird flue pandemic, and required registering every animal with the government, even insertions of miniature identification chips. If this should reach here, and there are few reasons to believe it will not, will I have to just exterminate the chickens? Last night I decided no, I think now I will begin digging an earth sheltered chicken coup which might allow these few chickens to survive without threatening our and the neighbor's chances of survival. I think we have great debt to be paid to all the chickens we've slaughtered and rob of their eggs, not all too kindly. I just like chickens period. How powerless am I in determining what happens between me and these chickens? What is my responsibility?

Whether or not things unfold as he said they would and I saw myself, it seems to me that most likely what we can do now is apt to also be the best we can do for circumstances as they are now, regardless of further developments. They will not be wasted time or effort.

Becoming as self -sufficient as possible, learning to work together with neighbors, learning alternative and more sustainable ways to supply food, water, shelter, adequate heat and cooling, now, will not be a lost cause.

Certainly anything we can do to lesson the impact of our past choices, such as decrease global warning will give more time to prepare. My belief that this is indeed possible, and how will be found at http://XXXX. This is of course a large order, and not necessarily a popular occupation in todays civilization. Most persons may think one is nuts, in fact, even for enhancing the fertility in one's own garden by organic methods.

Most of the measures, such as gardening and earth-sheltered structures, are very practical and rewarding ways to ameliorate world-wide pain and suffering even beyond their immediate benefits. 

This morning, I turned on our kerosene Monitor heater to heat our house. It was not some greedy ogre of a mega-oil corporation that did this, but me. I go outside and see and smell the foul fumes of burning fossil fuel I placed there. While out there, I see also the contrails of at least twenty airliners in the sky over-head most any time of the day. For an entire summer I barely have enough hours of cloud free skies to test my home-made solar food dehydrator, yet I even again contemplate taking a trip across country to visit family and friends as I did recently when my mother died. We will drive to town Monday to replenish our small larder, even though we have been using some of the canned and dried food we processed last summer, which by the way, also burned coal for the electricity we used to do this. The one bright spot: the apple butter we cooked under a solar cooker for many hours for practically free. But where would I find the foil or the cast away TV dish for next summer?

I participate in all this, not just as a victim of circumstances or others, but as a member of the human race. I am as culpable as the next person for not having come up with better ways of living as stewards of the earth's bounty. I too have poisoned the air, the water and the land. To expect not to have to suffer the consequences would simply not be realistic. Strong and radical measures are now required to even try to mollify some of these consequences, for example, perhaps even refusing to buy another drop of gasoline or kerosene, to buy anything from a grocery store, or materials from a building supply company ... well, you get the idea. What are we to do? What do you know to do?

It is my humble intent in putting together this web-site, as amateurish as it is, to gather and suggest directions we might now take and purposeful things we can do, preparatory for today and the days ahead.  I am certain there are many other persons out there who have had these kinds of leadings, with knowledge and skills to contribute to the effort that is required if what the man in my dream told me is indeed coming down the turnpike.  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Philosophically, I agree wholeheartedly that what we have projected, and hence perceive in our so-called outer world, is not what it appears at all, on the surface, but is a dream, and whether or not we continue to appear as bodies in the earth is not our primary, deepest concern. In fact, realizing this, is undoubtedly the most important lesson to be learned. It may also be the most important single factor to survival when fear and panic can mean the difference between what we do and not do at critical moments.

Trying to save this life beyond all other considerations, we can lose it. Laying down our life for others is the greatest gift we can make, even for our own overall good ... returning Home.

Since everyone of us apparently will die relatively soon regardless of what falls out in the immediate future, especially we folk up here in years need manifest and give what we do have towards the survival of the younger generations that can still reproduce, raise families and take up life again after the changes have occurred. At least you and I might still have open the opportunity to 'return' again if still helpful for us. Otherwise, perhaps not.  

I really cannot say, nor am I trying to convince anyone else what is true about the future. In my dream,  'Doing' does have importance in the outcome of things in the dream, even to the extent whether or not there is to be continued association of mankind with the earth, and opportunity to make a happier dream, finding our way Home from the world of appearances and change.


It is usually helpful not to be taken completely by surprise if and when such things do occur. And not to be, nor feel, helpless, watching them occur without understanding the cause, or misunderstanding it. To see things as they are, and being able to respond (responsibility) in constructive ways is our goal. Not to be optimistic or pessimistic, but realistic. What more can we ask for?

Anybody remember the episode in "Lawrence of Arabia" when a member of the camel caravan fell off his camel, unnoticed, and left behind, and when this was discovered, the Predestination crowd all said, "What will be, will be, it is God's will" and started to ride on.  Lawrence instead risked his life to go back and find the man still alive, and hauled him back with him.  What did he tell them? "It was God's will I rescue him," or something like that. ???  What was it he said? I wish I could remember. The teaching behind it stuck with me all these years, however.

Though I have had several surprising precognitive experiences myself where I have undoubtedly pre-experienced events that later unfolded exactly the same in every single minute detail, it requires more than an on-the-surface understanding about what seems to be happening than to conclude one can or need do nothing in the earth because it is all a pre-scripted dream. Why then eat, or get out of bed?  The roles we seem to play are not unrelated to what we need to learn to change and get out of the dream we are in, having continued opportunity to forgive it and turn it into a happy dream ... as we learn that even the world we see is our own creation, every element, every event, everything, part of our own 'selves'.
