Mystical Conversation, Odilon Redon, 1896

The Mayan people call this the “Time of No Time.” From here on, we’re on Earth time. Mother Earth is shaking to her core. It’s a time of madness, disconnection, and hyper-individualism… The Mayan vision says that we in the West will find safe harbor only if we can journey past a wall of mirrors.

The mirrors will surely drive us mad — unless we have a strong heart. Some mirrors delude us with an infinity of reflections of our vanity and shadows. Others paralyze us with our terror and rage, feeding an empire that manufactures our fear into resignation. But the empire has no roots and it’s toppling all around us. In this time everyone is called to take a stand. Everyone is called to be a leader.

— Robin Youngblood

Ma frequently gave the advice to inquire into the nature of the “I”:
“‘Who am I’…

She also took the objective approach of telling people to pose the question to all of life’s appearances:
“Who has come in this form?”
In this way She recommended to see all as expressions of the Divine.
When someone approached Ma with sorrow, She would say,
“God has come to you in this form”.
