Fractal Time: The Secret of 2012 and a New World Age

In this optimistic book, author Greg Braden utilizes his technological background and spiritual outlook to create a book that gives us important insights into the years ahead, with special focus on 2012. Based on his research, the author has pinpointed "opportunity windows" for positive change in past, present and future transitional cycles and he shows us how these windows can be activated. This well-written book is a metaphysical approach to futurism/ forecasting and quantum physics. For Greg Braden fans, this book will delight. For the rest, this book will surprise you. I believe this is his best book in terms of research and presentation. All the dots seem to connect as the author lays out his conclusions based on extensive research. If you, like many of us, have concerns about 2012, read this book. I think you'll enjoy it !

This is the best of the 9 books on 2012 I have read. It draws from a number of sources, and leaves you in absolute awe, realizing there can be no doubt that the world as we know it will soon be very different. Gregg cites from a wide variety of countries and cultures that have pinpointed this time: India, China, Tibet, as well as the Aztecs, Mayans, Hopis, and even the Bible Code. Gregg takes on the conventional idea of global warming being a function of air pollution, showing that the warming and melting of the ice caps is simply a part of the cycle. He discusses the Hindu tradition of "the day of Brahman" and the "night of Brahman" and shows how these cycles are actually backed by science. I had heard before different ideas about time being "the fourth dimension" and "motion in space" but Gregg's layman explanation bumped up my understanding of the time/space continuum considerably. I now feel I have a deeper understanding of time and how it moves in spiral cycles which create a tendency or energy potential for certain events. As an amateur astrologer who has been able to predict critical events for friends, I always warned them that the energy is coming their way and what they do with it is up to them. Gregg shares that view in this book, showing us that the cycles are not destiny--but rather opportunities. The best part of the book is chapter 5 in which the code is given to predict your own future and understand your past, based on cycles. I was in such a hurry to learn this that I tried to do it before finishing the chapter and got confused about the process. I was wondering, why isn't this working? I could not see any significant patterns at all. Then after reading the chapter and getting more clear on the instructions, I did it again. I was amazed to find that it worked with near 100% accuracy in various issues of my life, such as an eating disorder with its various stages of healing, my spiritual life, and my parents' divorce followed by loss and betrayal in relationships. But there is also a code for deciphering world events, and Gregg gives several examples as well as the method for calculation. (By the way he has calculators on his web site if you don't care to learn the process of these cycles.) If you really want to prepare for 2012, this is a must-read. Unlike many of the books out there, this is a book of hope with a vision of possibilities. According to Gregg, this is a once-in-26,000 year opportunity! We have the power within our hearts to make it heaven on earth. He cites science for all this; it is not merely some new age theory!

This book is destined to become Gregg Braden's classic work. In this time of such obvious global change, Gregg gives us the tools to grasp the cycles that are playing out and the wisdom to understand the vital role each one of us plays. The time code calculator I found fascinating, the observations from a scientist enlightening and the uplifting view of 2012 a true gift from a great teacher.

FRACTAL TIME is Braden's most brilliant work to date. Gregg helps us in understanding our current time in history,the great cycles of the universe and the rich possibilities that are encoded in the returning patterns of our lives-Fractals.He presents to us a beautiful map pointing to perhaps the greatest choice point, personally and collectively, for world peace and healing.This is a masterful contribution filled with wisdom,science,hope-a grounded, powerful message for our time that is much needed and appreciated in a world of seeming uncertainty.A must to navigate the mysteries and facts of 2012 and beyond.

I really enjoy this author's works. In this case, he takes a subject around which there is so much trepidation and not a little 'fear' and he invites you to explore, sharing his knowledge, experiences and research with the reader, alternate possibilities that makes one want to stick around to see how the future will unfold. As an added benefit, he empowers one to take control of one's own life, by offering the idea that s/he can actually change the outcomes of 'repeating uncomfortable situations' in one's life, into more fulfilling and positive ones. Expand that thought process, apply globally and just imagine! the possibilities! I highly recommend this work.
