Every activity is the expression – on one level or another – of the single evolutionary process of trial and error. It is absurd to think we can focus our goals with fully detailed precision – we simply cannot anticipate all the changes that come about within life’s complexity. When evolution is thwarted then revolution occurs – but it is simply a backlog of designated evolutionary change suddenly unjamming. Much as a turbulent river has its certain flow disguised by eddies, whirls and even tidal forces, the perpetual shuffling around is secondary to the forward-moving, uni-directional thrust towards its inevitable destination. Although often hidden, misunderstood and even cynically refuted, the dynamic of life – that which drives the changes towards a particular direction – is evolution. Life is change – of course – yet the change is not random, purposeless and unpredictable. The part of us that was born recently, and will die soon, is quite absorbed in the drama of this particular personality – and yet there is another part of us that knows of the bigger game, the cosmic dimension of our being – and it has its own evolutionary agenda, which differs from, and yet is complimentary to, that of the ego. The journey we are embarked upon has not just begun it is an aspect of the eternal dynamic that links the infinite past to the eternal future.
