Fractal Time


Fractal TimeFractal Time (Audio)

Gregg Braden

CD's AUD34.95

As we fast approach 2012 there is increasing interest in the prophecy of the Mayan. Within the Mayan mythology, and other ancient traditions, it is widely accepted that this date will see us at the end of a world age, the end of a 5,125 cycle. Exactly what that means is the subject to many theories so it is with great curiosity that I start listening to Gregg Braden’s latest audio book - Fractal Time.

Braden starts with an overview of the ancient traditions that all point to the same time/space conjunction - the 21st December 2012. His deep knowledge of the ancient traditions adds much richness to his dialogue and I found myself building a picture in my mind of the cycles he is describing. The vastness of time is a concept I struggled with in the sense of how small a human life span is when compared to 5,125 years.

As he introduces the universal patterns that underpin our world he moves into the mathematical calculations and principals used within the repeating patterns of nature - fractals and the golden ratio. I needed a pen and paper through this section, although you can skip understanding the maths in totality and go to the calculator on his website!

Once the maths are in place he demonstrates how the great cycles have been playing out in our life time and the examples are fascinating - from the September 11 disaster to the melt down of the global financial system… he can demonstrate the pattern. For me a key fact to remember was that although the conditions of a cycle repeat the outcomes can be altered by choice.

So what is the prediction for 2012... Braden expresses his view clearly “ The way we feel about our experiences has a direct effect upon what we actually experience. With those words he then explores the choice points we have ahead of us.


Author Profile -Gregg Braden is a New York Times best-selling author, a former Senior Computer Geologist for Phillips Petroleum, and the first Technical Operations Manager for Cisco. For over 20 years he has searched the remote monasteries of Egypt, Peru and Tibet for the life-giving secrets that were encoded in the language of our most cherished.
