INDIGO
SPIRITS are a far more widespread phenomenon than the world cares to
acknowledge. They have been identified far and wide in communities and in
diverse cultures. Indigos often hide their true natures behind impermeable facades
in order to survive in today’s highly competitive and materialistic world.
While some of them openly spread their joy for life, others are unable to find
ways to cope and languish in prisons of our making. And yet these highly aware
beings are likely to be key players in re-establishing planetary harmony and
contributing to our accelerated evolutionary consciousness.
Indigos are wise and powerful. Fragile
and strong. Loving and compassionate. Curious and changeable.Sincere and
authentic.Tirelessly passionate about nature. Lucid and just in their
observations. Naturally natural.Blatantly honest. Mercilessly frank. Often rebellious.
High-spirited. Conscious of their mission.Small yet immense.In the moment yet
infinite. Riding freedom’s winds. Delighted to be seen and loved for who they
are. Courageous to have come. Evolutionary.
The
more we understandour own indigo spirit, the more we can live conscious
meaningful lives. Indigo is not only a color, but a vibration that has its own
resonance. It corresponds to the throat chakra in the vedic tradition and
heralds the messengers of a new era.
In
the face of climate change where we seem to be moving into a vortex of unknown
parameters and where our very survival may be in question, the presence of a
higher awareness will certainly be welcome. We don’t really have a clue about
how to proceed, but the values of courage and integrity will be essential.
The
human race may be confronted with the necessity for rapid change to face the
new biochemical and meteorological changes that our planet is beginning to
manifest. Let’s face it, our human lungs can breathe oxygen but will not be
able to breathe the sulfuric and nitric oxides that our higher temperatures and
methane gaseswill release into the world. Our lungs will simply burn up.
Survival will require a physical transmutation of the human body, something
like what happened in the Hollywood movie, Avatar for different reasons.
And
as Darwin pointed out long ago, it is not the most numerous or highly intelligent
species that survive a major evolutionary change, but those that have the
highest degree of adaptability.
The
book, Indigo Spirit for a Child-Friendly
Planet,by an author who simply goes by the name of MARTI gives us some
clues about how to prepare for the unknown. It was written for indigos
everywhere, and for whatever trace of “indigo” beats in our blood, touches our
hearts and delineates our own personal song lines and our collective human
experience. It formulates a philosophy of living to respond more creatively to
the indigo spirit in children and adults and to acknowledge all of our
struggles to integrate and accomplish our life missions. The chapters are
short, concise, and full of practical tips and gems of wisdom.
MARTI is a writer, photographer, and
journalist. She has written for the Washington
Post, the Le Monde Guardian Weekly, and
was a staff writer at Science Magazine.
She is a former professor at the Sorbonne in Paris and was the first keynote
speaker at the COP 15 Climate Change conference in 2009. That conference was
life-changing for MARTI.
“I began to see more clearly the relationship between our
indigo spirits and the challenges we face today to protect our delicate and
fragile planet and to safeguard against human and species extinction,” she says.
Indigo
spirit is a slim easy-to-read volumeespecially popular among young people who
are searching for their true mission and raison d’être in life and who often struggle to find
their true place in the world around them. It especially honors children
everywhere who not only have the right to preserve and develop their indigo
spirits for their own personal fulfillment, but will also be key players in
re-establishing planetary harmony and contributing to our accelerated evolutionary
awareness.
“Wings
have birds,” an Indigo child once remarked. This pretty well sums up a new
way of thinking in a world where we have to get out of the box and understand
that even if there is a Planet B and we get into our interstellar space suits, at
this stage in time we will probably not have the technology to reach it. So the
only other alternative is transformation of consciousness and transmutation of
the physical body. A large task and we will need to have the mental, physical
and spiritual mettle to do it. Today is a training ground for an unknown
tomorrow. What a privilege to be alive at this moment in time.
