- Edward Matchett, from Creative Action: The Making of Meaning in a Complex World

We stand at the dawn of a new Age...anyone who is sensitive and perceptive knows this. The Age we are entering is not one that will be just marginally different from all that has gone before - the difference is one of kind, not degree. It is a time in which man will become what he has long been destined to be...this may well be the chief characteristic of the New Millenium.

What is it that is now occuring? Man, at last, is ready to become conscious of his own 'being' and the vast potential that is locked within him. The prison gates are opening, and all that has held him prisoner is coming into the light of the most glorious day. Man is also becoming aware of his true destiny...he has long since suspected that his home encompasses all the earth, and all other earths, moons and distant stars. But even this is not all. In the process of his 'becoming', man is now discovering that he is not, and cannot be, on his own. Whether he is to be on earth, or any other planet, the most awakened of men now know that a vast power will always be immediately available to enable them to tackle any necessary task. This power, that we labeled 'Creative Energy' (of the Creative Action of the eternal) is always available, everywhere, and for everyone.

This is man's most important and crucial discovery as we now look at the wonderful future that is being born. Man has always had some inkling that this vast power was available, if he only knew how to do the tapping and the harnessing. Yet only rarely, down the ages, has he found the answer to the riddles of the Sphinx and of the Grail.

It is the immediacy and the certainty of the power that has always thrown us. If we believed in its existence, it has been our error to assume that the power comes only as and when it chooses, perhaps in answer to some kind of prayer. That the power is available in its fullness in any and every moment is a discovery that only few have recognised in former times. It has been the nature of emerging man to want to struggle alone and to suffer, but that phase of our development is now almost over.

The truth about man's deepest nature that is now becoming manifest cannot be grasped without some conflict initially. It requires a Copernican adjustment of almost all of our learned behaviour and of many of our most strongly held beliefs. The truth is that all men shall walk like Gods, and none shall be deprived of anything that he truly needs. The deserts shall once again be made to blossom, and that which was lost in tears will soon be rebuild with great delight and happiness.

It is toward the fullness of his triune being that man is now fast approaching; a wholeness and oneness of body, mind and soul. Essentially the entire movement is holistic in its nature, for as individual man emerges, he now begins to discover his right relationships with every other man and with all created and unmanifest beings. The journey of being into Being has begun. Already there are many mighty rivers rushing gladly toward one vast and joyful sea.

As this movement gains strength, and enters into its Omega, creative expression is increasing on every side. All thought, all action, all moods and modes and leanings are turning more and more into expression of the best and the noblest kind. Little by little all is becoming truly appropriate. Little by little heaven is being made manifest on our earth and will be made so across our galaxy.

As being unfolds its own mysteries and wonders, meaning expands at an ever increasing rate. It is what man is in his deepest being that is the meaning of meaning - and what he is laughs and sings as it now rushes forth in creative activity. As being unfolds we hear the sound of music; far more beautiful than any music that our world, in any former age has known. We begin to find that music and meaning are almost synonymous, that the logos within each person is really like some vast celestial symphony. As man emerges, his music comes forth with him. All listen enraptured and join in the music and the dance. Every person discovers himself to be most accomplished, and is pleasantly surprised.

As Being is made manifest so too is its total joy and total love Being is joy and love supreme, more so than all its wisdom, and might and power. Joy and love become important to each creative act, and soon nothing will be made except in intense ecstasy. Without joy and love throughout all work and play the entire edifice that being builds would soon fall down. That has been the lesson of the ages, but now at last the lesson is being learned.

The music that is now playing through man's unfolding being, across all creation, is superbly beautiful. It is being discovered that Creative Action becomes both the composer and the player and that finally this music is the only praise and the only prayer.

Creation must be from moment to moment to moment. Otherwise there is so little music, so little joy and so little to be loved and to love. Such music is ours to make if we are willing, provided only that the process is valued and understood. How do we unleash it? The story has now been told. Put simply we recognise that the music is ours for the making, we play our little part, and take huge delight in every moment as the dance of life unfolds.
