"Transcendence refers to the very highest and most inclusive holistic levels of human consciousness, behaving, and relating, as ends rather than means, to one-self, to significant others, to human beings in general, to other species, to nature, and to the cosmos." (Maslow) Transcendence is "knowing" by "unknowing"... knowing by non-possession... we can never "know" the Original Consciousness because that would imply possession... however, we can become aware of our ontological immersion in the One Love that actualizes our "return" to Original, or Transcendental, Consciousness... The Holy One is the Only One -- the single Real within which all things exist (or not)... Everything and everyone is a revelation of the One -- every turn to love and to blessing uplifts the entire cosmos into the possibility of Remembrance -- this is the mystic key to unlocking the treasures of 2012 and beyond... this mystic key offers the perfection of relationships between persons, groups, nations, and universe... When the essential divinity of every "other" is remembered, the then obvious beauty in creating policies that enhance equality, justice, reverence for the Earth, and peace will become the steady practice of legislators and governments... this remembrance will inaugurate the "holy competition" of creating health care for all, take-it-to-your-limit education for all, a willing disarmament of people and nations, an absolute equality between women and men, the re-creation of institutions to justly serve and liberate every person, and a radical-to-the-roots commitment to equality, dignity, opportunity, and justice for all... The incredibly small-minded politics of the Right Wing, of predatory corportations, and of dominator paradigm religious institutions, will be overcome through the sacred activism of Transcendence... and 2012 will be remembered as the turning of a very important page in human history and evolution...
