Future World

A man in his forties wakes in a park in San Diego with no memory of his name, his past, or how he got there. He finds a cowboy hat, black boots, an e-bike, and a gold medallion that talks. Who is he? Where did he come from? Ride north, the medallion tells him. Visit the old missions one by one. At each, carry out a mysterious ritual. When you reach Sonoma, your memories will be restored, including those of a mysterious past. You will know who took them and why. Refuse, and I will stop your heart.

Everything that we experience remains part of our inner self for the rest of our lives and unconsciously shapes the choices we make and the direction our lives may take in the future. In this chaotic modern world, we are bombarded by a host of superficial external influences. To such an extent that we forget the importance of listening to the internal voice we have, or are even deafened to its words by our external confusion. Dealing with dreams provides crucial support within our lives and the images we receive act as spiritual guides if we understand the messages held within them. In “...

This book shows how trapped we are in a mechanized, consumer-driven society. It describes how the corporation-economy creates a Machine Culture in which all of us are oilers of our spiritual impoverishment. We have been cut off from the sacred. By initiating elder-leaders, establishing epiphanal communities, fasting from the media, and mapping the topography of our inner experience we can reclaim the sacred and reconceive a different future.

After the publication of my book Medjugorje, the Secrets Revealed - Guide to the New Times, I did not expect to write on this topic, but as often happens, so many reasons for further research, deepening and many questions emerged through the readers, including on aspects that determined further research, analysis and new discoveries. The success of my first book on the subject made me realize how much people need spirituality or need for confrontations on these issues, to understand and experience, to experience precisely on their own skin the experience of encountering the Transcendent, if...

Addicted to the Future Your Guide for Transformation: Rewrite Your Presence. Reclaim Your Power. By Elias Rubenstein What if the very thing you’re waiting for—is the very thing holding you back?

They live in a constant state of “someday.” Someday I’ll be free. Someday I’ll feel ready. Someday I’ll finally change. But “someday” is a mirage. And it always stays just out of reach. Addicted to the Future ...

Greider explains the dynamics of the global economy in terms of human struggle. As he makes clear, the actions of multinational corporations and finance capitalists are no longer guided by the national interests of their home countries, but by the imperatives of the free market. As the global economy's contradictions multiply and its instabilities deepen, are we doomed to relive the world depression and the rise of violent fascism experienced in the early 20th century?

Earth is dying, but I hold the key to its survival. The people of Earth thought we wouldn’t survive. Why else would they only send their criminals with a ship full of aliens? We proved them wrong. All we have to do is cross the galaxy and return home before Earth freezes to death in less than three months. Easy, right? The unknowns of the universe, like meteor showers, wormholes, and space pirates, are nothing compared to what we face on our own ship. With our own people. Our salvation has never been so close…yet so far away. Will we make it back to Earth in time to save not only those ...

In the digital age of instant communication, handwriting is less necessary than ever before, and indeed fewer and fewer schoolchildren are being taught how to write in cursive. Signatures - far from John Hancock's elegant model - have become scrawls. In her recent and widely discussed and debated essays, Anne Trubek argues that the decline and even elimination of handwriting from daily life does not signal a decline in civilization, but rather the next stage in the evolution of communication.

How is the global economic order shaping up for the 21st Century? Today we are forced to consider how the average working family might prepare for the next two global conflicts that we see arising. We have relied on government and media to describe global affairs, but now we present a different narrative regarding these World Wars. Using scientific futurism we look over the horizon as we simultaneously examine the history of conflict from the 20th Century forward. What can we do to protect ourselves?

During the first two decades of the twenty-first century, the whole messy truth about the legacy of last century’s big dam building binge has come to light. What started out as an arguably good government project has drifted oceans away from that original virtuous intent. Governments plugged the nation’s rivers in a misguided attempt to turn them into revenue streams. Water control projects’ main legacy will be one of needless ecological destruction, fostering a host of unnecessary injustices.

As the survivors seek answers and help, they stumble onto a secret, long lost, that once nearly destroyed the world. A secret that has the power to save humanity. Or end it.

Philip Bump, a reporter as adept with a graph as with a paragraph, is popular for his ability to distill vast amounts of data into accessible stories. THE AFTERMATH is a sweeping assessment of how the baby boom created modern America, and where power, wealth, and politics will shift as the boom ends. Bump helps us navigate the flood of data in which our sense of the country now drowns. He fits numbers into a narrative about who we are (including what "we" really means), how we vote, where we live, what we buy—and what predictions we can make with any confidence.
