My Blog

this is a repost of some posts that were made over on the derrickjensen forum.

Probably the most frequent question I get is "how much time is left?" My reply for the past four plus years has always been "I don't know, a few days, a few months, a few years, maybe longer, maybe not. I wish I knew."

Among the Tibetans I had been hearing references to this ancient prophecy, and conjectures
that, after twelve centuries, it was coming true in our time. "Can you please
tell me in your own words?" I asked. And slowly, with pauses to reflect, he
