| This is the same type of discussion wherein most people on this/other forums believe meditation should be a compulsory subject in schools. Wouldn’t that be the easiest way to publish statistics?
However, the reality is that, it’s not the case today. A long shot (most people won’t agree/believe) which could at-least give ~15% visibility in this context, I believe is : by making Birth Time reporting/recording compulsory along with Birth Date in most personal records. Then, this data is shared with pre-signed NDAs with certified Application Developers for research, development, survey, analytics, etc. Similar to credit score & Credit Karma, maybe we can call it actual karma :-)
The Birth could help in generating a close-to-precise horoscope (generally online/with pre-set programs these days). Some integration and data warehousing there should be a good dreaming spot. Now, it’s is a common belief that personal future in order words the SWOT (Strength, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis of a person's life could be done with the help of sunsign/moonsign based personal horoscope/natal chart. However it’s a less known fact that if correlated/aggregated data available for masses, could be helpful in predicting even major catastrophic mass destruction events like wars, natural calamities, political instability, etc. For example (experts don’t quote me, just an example): 'Everyone born in/after 1984 shows Neptune in 7th house from Natal'. Suggests no world war period?
In other words, the same applies for liberation, I'm told that generally the Natal-Chart especially the 8th and 12th house from Natal shows common characteristics of people who are near liberation. Strong Jupiter, Jupiter in 8th house, etc. are one of some common terminologies used most of the times.(again don’t quote me, just an example)
There are several transcripts (manuscripts) which even talk about the galaxy that we live in, has a solar system of liberated being (Dev Lokas?) which circle closer to the earth's solar system every 25000 years. When it moves closer, the Chemical – ether (not the diethyl or flammable one ofcouse) in the air increases and people are naturally more inclined towards meditation, because it grounds your mind, they say. On the contractrary when it distances itself from us, dark ages, recessions, world wars, etc happen due to increasing greed/craving whatever you may call it. During the stages where the Dev Lokas are closer to us, the depiction of such in horoscopes would be a great gift and enhancement to mankind overall. That is where even the concept of Yugas come into picture most people say. Example: The solar system being far (Kali Yuga), being closest (Satya Yuga) and so on. Proper depiction using a space telescope like Hubble (now retired) would help.
In any case, it is believed that 2025 would be the end of Kali Yuga which would mean progressive thinking and more adaptability towards meditation. This is seen in both the Birth Charts and general observation of the world now & around. TedX, Goenka Institude, Thervada, Internal Insight, etc. none of it existed before, which is now multiplying the reach of insight to people. Whether we believe it or not, sure this would very well be classified as dogma, but this is all conceptual until some billionaire decided to invest. The news that Elon Musk investing in use for Telepathy to interact with computers using brain chips was one such encouraging step to me.
My apologies if this was too much dogma and stories, but when practicing true Metta, this is all what comes to my mind during my quick reflection phases. |
