CONTENTS
FOREWORD
F rom the ideological halls of academia, the frontiers of scientific research, and the hallowed walls of houses of worship echo the theories of philosophers, scientists, spiritual teachers, agnostics, atheists, pundits, and pathfinders. On a global level you may also add to that list everyday people who are just as passionate about exploring the dynamics of human transformation, about diving into the depths of the evolutionary process and birthing their ultimate potential. Collectively, we ask the big questions about that which evolves the potentiality within galaxies and in you and me.
The theory of Emergence has a venerable history and has been debated at least since the time of Aristotle. In our twenty-first century, what is now called the Law of Emergence describes the architecture of the evolutionary process. Operative within the human being, it is the emergence of the ultimate state of consciousness that is our inborn birthright, which some call enlightenment, satori , moksha , or illumination. Imagine the planetary smile that would illuminate the spheres if the global family collectively came into harmony with the Law of Emergence. In truth, this is what has been happening since the big bang, which evolved from stardust to us, for as Carl Sagan wrote, We are all made of star stuff.
So how does Emergence emerge? As organically as the oak tree emerges from the acorn seed when the conditions are right. While we do not cause the Law of Emergence to emerge in our lives, we do create the conditions by which it can. When consciousness is sufficiently fertile, the lotus flower of enlightened awareness blooms within us. This fertilization process is the spiritual technology Derek Rydall teaches in his seven stages for creating the right conditions for our emergability to be activated.
