"Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippen' into the future" Fly Like an /Eagle, Steve Miller Band
The future, moving into the present, takes us on a journey of ups and downs like a fish tossed on a sea of emotion. Often surprised by what comes into our lives from the future, we find our wisdom tested against what passes to us through the narrow aperture of our life. The changes we face today, though predictable in hindsight, are proof of the surprises that can slip in from the future. Dramatic change is upon us! New truths of the future are turning Old Truths of the past into New Lies. To understand this statement is to understand yoga as mysticism, and what it means to tread the Wisdom Path of yoga with a qualified master. To venture upon this undertaking is to render oneself FutureProof. FUTURE PROOF is a computer programming term. Here the programmer seeks to assure customers access to their data history in the face of future software technology advancements. By the same token, the FutureProof technology of yoga helps serious aspirants sustain their insights in the face of change. As a sustainable learning model, yoga as FutureProof is a demonstrated wisdom that both integrates and survives the future, while reaching beyond it. That wisdom is Direct Experience and is what has made valid mystic paths FutureProof. The skill to experience a continuity of thought rather than the roller coaster ride of arousal to the erratic manipulations of modernity is what gives yogis and other mystics the insight and power of Direct Experience. Evidenced by its survival of 10,000 years of social change, direct experience with truth on the journey toward enlightenment has made yoga immune against the vagaries of the future.
