Radical Revisioning Of Time: Humanity And Nature
Have you ever stopped to ponder the intricate relationship between time, humanity, and nature? Time, in all its intangible glory, has always fascinated and perplexed us. It dictates our actions, shapes our memories, and drives the very essence of our existence. But what if we were to radically reimagine the way we perceive and interact with time? Brace yourself for a mind-bending journey as we explore the potential for a profound paradigm shift in the understanding of time, and its implications for humanity and nature.
The Illusion of Linearity
We have been conditioned to perceive time as a linear construct, flowing relentlessly from past to present to future. This linear perspective has reigned supreme for centuries, constraining our understanding of the interconnectedness of all things. However, ancient wisdom and quantum physics suggest an alternative view: time as a non-linear, multi-layered fabric, where past, present, and future coexist in a vast cosmic tapestry.
Imagine a reality where events do not occur in a sequence, where the past is not simply erased but lives on alongside the present and future. In this radical revisioning of time, our perception of cause and effect would be radically transformed. We would no longer be held hostage by the mistakes and regrets of the past, but rather view them as valuable experiences that inform and shape our present choices.

The Primacy of the Present Moment
In our fast-paced, modern world, we often find ourselves disconnected from the present moment. Our minds wander incessantly, dwelling on past events or racing toward future possibilities. Yet, countless spiritual traditions and mindfulness practices remind us of the power and importance of being fully present. Could this be the key to embracing a truly holistic understanding of time?
If we were to enter a state of heightened presence, our perception of time would shift dramatically. The present moment would expand, stretching its boundaries to encompass the totality of our being. We would become acutely aware of the intricate interplay between humanity and nature, recognizing our inseparable connection to the natural world and the impact of our actions.
Rewriting History: Reclaiming Lost Wisdom
A radical revisioning of time invites us to reconsider the way we understand history. The conventional narrative often focuses on a linear progression of events, with little regard for the wisdom and knowledge discarded along the way. Imagine if we were to rewrite history, incorporating the richness of forgotten cultures, indigenous wisdom, and ancient teachings.
By honoring and integrating diverse cultural perspectives, we would uncover a tapestry of interconnected stories, revealing humanity's shared roots and our collective responsibilities. We would learn from the wisdom of indigenous cultures, deeply attuned to the rhythms and cycles of nature. This newfound understanding could catalyze a profound transformation in our relationship with the natural world, fostering a deeper sense of reverence and stewardship.
Embracing Deep Time: A Cosmic Perspective
Our understanding of time is often limited to the human scale, but what if we were to expand our vision to embrace deep time? Deep time refers to the vast expanse of cosmic history, stretching billions of years beyond our ephemeral existence. By contemplating deep time, we gain a newfound appreciation for the ebb and flow of the universe, humbling ourselves in the face of its immense grandeur.
This cosmic perspective invites us to recognize the impermanence of our individual lives, encouraging a shift in priorities towards generational welfare and planetary stewardship. Our actions would be guided not by immediate gratification, but by a long-term vision of intergenerational well-being. We would start living in harmony with nature, recognizing ourselves as mere custodians of this wondrous planet.
A Call to Action: Embracing a New Temporal Reality
The radical revisioning of time offers a fresh perspective, free from the shackles of linearity and short-sightedness. It challenges us to rethink our relationship with time, humanity, and nature. It invites us to step into a new temporal reality, one that honors the sacredness of the present moment, draws wisdom from the past, and humbly contemplates the vastness of cosmic time.
The time has come for a paradigm shift. Let us embark on this transformative journey together, for the sake of our future generations, and the wellbeing of our beloved planet.

In Original Thinking, Glenn Aparicio Parry delves into the evolution of Western thought to recover the living roots of wisdom that can correct the imbalances in our modern worldview. Inspired by groundbreaking dialogues that the author organized between Native American elders and leading-edge Western scientists to explore the underlying principles of the cosmos, this book offers a radical revisioning of how we think. Asking questions such as, Is it possible to come up with an original thought?, What does it mean to be human?, and How has our thinking created our world today?, Parry challenges us to consider many of our most basic assumptions. To think originally--as in thinking new thoughts that have never been thought or said before--is according to Parry, largely an illusion. So, too, is the idea of linear human progress. Most of us have traveled far from our ancestral lands, and in so doing, lost connection with place, the origin of our consciousness.
Original Thinking offers a radical revisioning of how we think and what it means to be human. It invites us to reintegrate our hearts with our heads and to expand our self-imposed narrowing of consciousness. In doing so we reconnect with the living, original source--nature and her interconnected elements and cycles--and embrace the communion of old and new, rational and intuitive, and masculine and feminine. Ultimately, Parry shows us how to create the tapestry of truly original thinking and to restore thought as a blessing, as a whole and complete transmission from Spirit.
