“Do you think it is possible for everyone to get enlightened in this life?..”
In a word, no. However, it is possible for everyone to experience life “as-if” enlightened, potentially in this life. To explain…
Some people’s lives are built for enlightenment. It’s their destiny and can be seen in a jyotish chart. They’ve done the preparation and awakening will naturally flower in life when the time (grace) comes. Some of those will also move quickly into higher stages.
Others come in with greater or lesser potential. Because of the nature of the times, more people with strong potential were born in the baby boom after the Second WW. They’ve helped raise group consciousness in the process of their own unfolding. Some have spent long periods in deep meditation, clearing group sludge. More recent births have sometimes been even more ready.
Don’t try to determine where you are in this spectrum. When you’re on the winding road of life, it’s hard to see past the next corner. The grace that is moving this process forward is arising beyond consciousness, beyond knowing by mind.
As consciousness rises, those with potential increase their opportunity to awaken. Effective understanding and techniques become more available. Some will run with that and some will walk away from it or face karmic hurdles that discourage them. There has to be that willingness to let go and face what is arising and resolve it. You can’t build a road over molten lava.
In the sense that major karma can bring a shadow, karma is at play in that willingness. But also human free will.
Gradually, we’re seeing both increasing numbers awakening and increasing numbers embodying surprisingly high stages that were rarely spoken of not so long ago. Both support still more shifts by still more people.
At a certain point, and I’m not sure how long this will take, group consciousness will rise high enough we’ll reach a tipping point and everyone will experience life as-if awake, even if they didn’t shift. Even if they had very little potential to shift. Group consciousness will pull everyone up.
To get there, a lot of things will need to become conscious so they can be resolved. We’re currently seeing a lot things that had been suppressed or ignored now coming to light. The news is full of revelations of abuse of all sorts. The key is recognizing this for what it is and not investing in it or amplifying it. Of course, egos will make it into a big story and drama.
With enough of this detritus cleared, it will allow the descent of the divine into the world.
I’m looking forward to seeing how this unfolds…

Yes, there is quite a flood arising to the lite to the point of being absurd.
Without thinking, the response here has been hours upon days upon weeks of deep meditations similar to renunciation.
Interesting. . .
🙂
Group consciousness and Grace. Nice!
If someone feels they are waiting for Grace then they’ve found it! This blog is The Grace! I mean the blog is about awakening and there’s a ton of info here…it’s not a blog on fly fishing or cars….this is The Grace!
…so I think “allowing” is a part of it and so is determination and perseverance in ones practice…but ironically to have those one needs to be touched by Grace also (?)
Idk. It nevers seems to think through!
Hi Baz
Well – grace brings the right practice or information we need, even if we don’t recognize it. Consistency with the practice is valuable but you have to be a little careful you’re not forcing it. That’s not allowing. 🙂
Nice. Yeah, The Grace really happens after we put down the books and scriptures. The “effortless meditation” you describe elsewhere. — just sit and let it in baby! lol —
Yes. Later, grace can come through books or relationships or whatever arises in life. We can come to see everything as grace.
That’s not quite what I mean by “effortless meditation” but whatever works for you. 🙂
Crystal clear, and eye-opening, thanks David. And now we are 8 years later, seems to be going in the right direction. Very interesting to see what 2026 brings for the rising of the tide.
Hi Kjetil
Yes, the shifts have been interesting. More sludge in the collective than I knew before, but also more people having advanced shifts than before. More crazy acting out than I anticipated, but more profound insights too. We live in interesting times…. Have seen a couple of things suggesting the acceleration will continue…
When the floodlight comes on lots of things come into sight? I think that shock-absorber will take care of the hits and bumps in the collective, hopefully. I have great hope for 2026. Can you share some of what you have seen? Seems to me the acceleration went on in 2025, and will increase in 2026.
Any approximate date for your new book?
Hi Kjetil
Well, yes, but there are still sometimes corners where there are shadows. But those shadows become more defined and easier to see and thus resolve.
Individual experiences will vary, according to their own karma and trauma/ shadows. The more prep-work we’ve done and the better we’ve taken care of ourselves, the more of a “shock-absorber” there will be for us.
Yes, they are suggesting the acceleration continues to increase through 2026, reaching something of a climax in Feb. 2027, when theres a powerful planetary yoga. Evidently, this will upgrade spiritual experiences, but increase difficulties for those who have not been doing the work.
We’ll see. I’m sure there will be lots of individual variations, also depending on karma, etc. For example, it’s becoming more common now for people to wake up with little spiritual preparation (typically they have prior life histories).
Timelines are hard to predict. But sometime this year is my hope.
I’ve actually got two other books moving now too. 🙂
Hi David.
What type of a climax do they expect in February 2027 and what is a powerful planetary yoga in this context?
Thanks.
Hi Bojan
I’ve seen several emails from different jyotishis talking about it. Even Human Design mentions it. A planetary yoga is a combination of aspects. Some yogas are wonderful blessings. Some are more troublesome – these are called doshas.
This one is called a “SATTVA VRIKRITTI DOSHA.” So, messed up sattva.
Found a version of an email that seems to be public:

Note: The point here is not to predict disaster but to “avert the danger that has not yet come” (from the Yoga Sutra).
