The pattern of activity in Anita's life thus far had shown occasional intrusions and sightings, but in the late 1980s the activity noticeably began to increase. The timing may not be accidental, as many abductees "woke up" to the fact of their encounters in 1986-88.

As he did in Phenomenon, Teilhard affirms that civilization "is ultimately, simply zoological 'specialization' extended to an animal group (man) in which one particular influence (the psychic) suddenly begins to assume a predominant part in the ramification of the phylum. From this point of view the formation of tribes, nations, empires, and finally of the modern state, is simply a prolongation of the mechanism which produced animal species." (1973, p. 87) Noogenesis is truly an evolutionary process.

There we continue Teilhard's treatment of noogenesis: "We are faced with a harmonized collectivity of consciousnesses to a sort of superconciousness. The earth not only becoming covered by myriads of grains of thought, but becoming enclosed in a single thinking envelope, a single unanimous reflection." (1961, pp. 251-2) Yet such a unanimity of consciousness implies a condition that humans generally reject, depersonalization. Indeed, the conclusion seems inevitable: "So that at the world's Omega, as at its Alpha, lies the Impersonal." (p. 258) At this point, "Omega," the last letter in the Greek alphabet, simply refers to the final stage of evolution. At the end the noosphere become an "all" that absorbs all.

Not unrelated, certainly, to this "educational" heredity is an evolutionary phenomenon unique to noogenesis, "the confluence of branches" (p. 89) After an initial phase of ramification, one species alone, homo sapiens, survives. Civilizations now seems to be on the same path. At first, there was ramification giving rise to some twenty-one distinct civilizations, largely isolated from one another. Like animal species most are extinct or vestigial. Still there remained and remains resistance to the homogenization of culture. Indeed, there seems to be a growing effort to preserve a plurality of cultures.

Yet, in Teilhard's view this resistance is yielding to crucial forces. One he speaks of is "ethnic compression the mainspring or initial motive force of the whole phenomena." (p. 97) In brief, "the human population is coming close to saturation point on the closed surface of our planet." Under such pressure, one would expect some sort of rearrangement, some change in structures. These, Teilhard believed, could be seen in the new "economico-technical organization" of the planet, the industrial revolution being an earlier example. Incidentally, since compression is the "motive force" we would expect such transitions to generate a certain amount of violence. "It is not, in itself, surprising that a rise in 'psychic temperature' should automatically accompany a better social arrangement." (p. 98)

He affirms that "the belief that there is an absolute direction of growth , to which both our duty and our happiness demand that we should conform. It is his [the human] function to complete cosmic evolution." (pp. 31-33)

More recently, Arguelles has been advocating a change in the calendar system that is used by mainstream society.  My understanding is that he wants to change to a calendar that is more in tune with natural cycles.  For example, society could switch to a calendar that is aligned with the cycles of the moon.

From what I read briefly on his website, he may be a bit strident in that way that he advocates the calendar change, but I still don't get the sense that he is a tool for NWO proponents.

According to Alice Bailey, the Tibetan Master, Djwhal Khul, said in the years, 1926-2026, there will be a "push" by the Planetary  Hierarchy to assist us in learning the laws of thought to master the mental plane and to bring about a realization of the nature of the  Soul. We are to learn to further develop the ability to concentrate, to be more receptive to intuition and to envision ourselves as Divine  co-creators. He said that we are to release desire, to develop "gentle stillness". Pain and unhappiness come from our rebellion against  what "is" in the present moment. Acceptance of each moment and ourselves frees us to perfect our gifts to humanity, to be the lens  through which the Divine is focused and to experience bliss and contentment.

“Master R. ... is the Lord of Civilization and His is the task of bringing in the new civilization for which all men wait ... He Himself at  this time is occupied with seventh ray energy which is the order producing energy upon this planet.           

“This is the Ray of ceremonial Order, and through the activity of its energy, when correctly directed and used, a right rhythm is being  imposed upon all aspects of human living. All effort is being constantly made to arrest the ugly chaos of the present and to produce the  ordered beauty of the future. The major weapon being used now by the combined Forces of Evil is chaos, disruption, lack of established  security and consequent fear. The potency of these evil forces is exceedingly great because they belong to no one group of people and  to all the ideologies. The chaos ... produced by the warring and conflicting ambitious elements in every nation (without exception) - these  are the factors with which Master R. is attempting to deal; the task is one of supreme difficulty. The entire rhythm of international  thinking has to be altered, and that constitutes a slow and arduous task; the evil personalities .... have eventually to be replaced by  those who can work in cooperation with the rhythm of the seventh ray, and thus produce ordered beauty.”

The point is that it is now necessary to consider this matter, for the “closing of the cycle”  is at hand. The meaning of 2012 is that  the present Earth civilization cycle has run its course, and it is necessary to actively anticipate the “divine descent”  as well as to envision  the nature of the coming Cosmic Civilization. In this way we may be prepared. Any descent implies the action of a hierarchy of greater  intelligence, a planetary logos, and it is on behalf of the fulfillment of the vision of that hierarchy that these reflections are put forth. The  axiom is that at this stage of the current cycle when the aspiration of those of us on this Earth plane is clear and concentrated enough,  the response from hierarchy will fully manifest.

By establishing this world-wide telepathic Earth wave we are creating a matrix of communication which brings the noosphere -  Earth's mental envelope - ever closer into conscious manifestation. This matrix also provides a protective field of genuinely positive  thought vibrations meant to maintain Earth's resonant field in a state of harmony and peace.

This Rainbow Bridge is the bridge of peace long prophesied that will permanently connect the third-dimensional Earth with the fourth and  higher dimensions, assuring a peace and harmony that will not be able to be broken.

2. The "Rainbow Bridge" or the "Spiral Tower"
These individual and group efforts are ultimately intended to collectively build what is called the "antahkarana", defined as a mystical  "planetary rainbow bridge", created by the upward thrust of spiritual/mental energies from humanity at one end and the downward  response of the Hierarchy at the other, which will eventually "unite Humanity and the Hierarchy". This rainbow bridge is built by a  "science of manipulating [incoming] energies and [outgoing] forces." (fully dissected in Bailey's _Education in the New Age_ chap.V) Once  it is completed, the bridge will be "electrified" or "energised", and will serve as the avenue by which the Hierarchy can carry on "full  planetary inter-communication" in order for Sanat Kumara to direct world affairs.  Curiously, "the Masters cannot and do not work [on  building this bridge] without Their chosen physical plane focal points", which Bailey goes on to explain are the human channels: New Age  change agents, working to bring "new and desirable trends in education." (p.109)  Clearly, the focus of the spiritual Hierarchy is on the  children, and these "trends" are exclusively religious in nature: "Education is a deeply spiritual enterprise." (_Problems of Humanity_, p.34)

Bailey cited the "New Group of World Servers" as the best example of Rainbow Bridge builders on a global level. Not all members of the  NGWS are conscious of this process, or even aware of the existence of the Hierarchy. (_Discipleship_ II, 204)  The only requirement is  that they practice the occult traditions of group meditation and seek to "serve". Their main service consists of "constant and  uninterrupted group meditation" on the Plan; specifically the next stage of the Plan to be put into operation. As the beginners practice  this group-think, they are introduced to their "Ashram" or inner group; in time, they will be increasingly aware of their spiritual counterpart,  the "greater Ashram of Sanat Kumara", which is building from the other end of the Rainbow.  In their function as bridge builders, the NGWS  are also conduits to receive "impressions" from the Hierarchy, as well as radars for homing in on unaffiliated individuals who can receive  those "impressions" through meditation.  The resulting "Path of Light" will allow the "Christ" to come. (p.206-207)

Teilhard de Chardin, a NA philosopher who influenced Robert Muller, Barbara Marx Hubbard, Peter Russell and many other NA leaders of  today, expressed the same bridging process in the symbol of a spiral tower: representing human evolution revolving in cycles, with a  periodic "leap" in consciousness continually taking humanity higher. His underlying assumption is a process of "complexifying" which  ultimately will manifest itself as an interrelated whole with the upper realms (of the spirit), which are symbolically but also physically trying  to descend. The goal at the end of this process is to meld minds into an intangible dimension which De Chardin calls the "noosphere", a  mystical planetary consciousness equivalent to Bailey's "Group Mind". (See de Chardin's book, _The Phenomenon of Man_)

2a. What happens once this Rainbow Bridge is established?
As Barbara Marx Hubbard puts it, the completion of the Rainbow Bridge will mean the completion of planetary consciousness, in which  all individuality will be surrendered. The transformation will trigger a kind of "birth".  However, like the physical birth process, it's  "dangerous, and there's nothing guaranteed"; it could lead to "a baby that kills the mother", in other words, "Armageddon".  Or it could  result in a "normal [collective mass consciousness] baby".  But meanwhile, even progress towards it completion is believed to have an  effect on human events. Hubbard implies that the Harmonic Convergence of 1987 made a great contribution toward the Bridge building,  resulting in (among other changes) the collapse of Communism. (see Hubbard's interview with "Thinking Allowed" host Dr. Jeffrey Mishlove,  1998)
