The next 50 years will represent a descent into increasing chaos: we are in clusterfuck terror-tory. Apart from political outcomes- which don’t look at all good, the problem of fossil fuel induced climate change, a burning planet, environmental degradation from a myriad sources, overpopulation, the sickness of factory farming, pandemics, a decreasing potable water supply, the ubiquity of guns and ammo- especially here in the US, the complete inability of cogent leadership to rise above prevailing obfuscation, the shocking failure of Big Media to properly inform the public, the utter indifference to real support for public education and perhaps above all the fascist exaltation of violence embodied in US foreign policy- all this is resolving into sharp simultaneous focus.
What is happening is the collective inability to account for the complete failure of industrialism, corporatism and militarism to provide a sustainable future- when this tragic failure is staring us in the face. We are all trapped on a Princess cruise ship with a flotilla of lethal icebergs before us and don’t have a clue what to do.
sadly I think your right, Baba said in the final declaration that it would take 700 years for the earth to enter the time of universal oneness peace etc and that things would get worse before they get better. Also, in Sheela Kalchuri’ book she reports Baba saying that huge numbers will die mostly of starvation but that he will give half a bakri (type of bread) a day to all who are holding on to his damaan.
