The Zul Enigma (6 page)

‘Okay. Call me when you
know more.’ Carlos grimaced and clutched his stomach. ‘Cramps,’ he said to
Drew, ‘I’ve got to go.’ He stumbled off his chair and headed for the bathroom.

After some time he
limped back, his face sallow.

‘That must be a weight
off your mind,’ Drew laughed.

‘Oh please.’ Carlos sat
back down to find that his terminal session had timed out while he was in the
toilet. He logged back in again.

‘Will you get me another
drink? I feel like I’m going to throw up.’ As Drew rummaged in the bottom of
the fridge for another can of isotonic he heard Carlos gasp, ‘Jesus Christ! Not
another one.’

Drew walked round to the
other side of the counter and stared at the screen. ‘What in hell is the
Galactic Federation?’

Once again the body of
the e-mail was empty and a video file was attached.

Carlos banged his hands
on the work surface. ‘I don’t understand. Why’s this person keep sending me
messages? What does he want?’

‘Go on – play the
video,’ Drew said, and for the second time the elderly man’s face filled the
screen and he began to speak.

‘Carlos, now you have
had time to assimilate our warning, we have more information to give you. The
Galactic Federation is, to use an expression with which you are familiar, a
consortium. A consortium of consciousness scattered throughout our universe, representing
many civilisations that comprise many entities. Our understanding is deep and
broad.

‘Because you humans’
knowledge of the universe is fragmentary, we will give you a more complete
understanding by explaining the full meaning of the concept that you name
“evolution”.

‘We know the majority of
educated humans on your planet believe human life originated from your marine
organisms, from which evolved reptiles, birds, mammals, apes, and eventually
mankind, and that natural selection has a commanding role in this process. All
this is correct. However, it is only a partial understanding of the
all-embracing concept of evolution.

‘You must understand,
Carlos, it is not just the many species on your Earth that are evolving. Your
entire planet is evolving, as is your solar system, as is your galaxy, as is
our entire universe. It is all interconnected. Our consciousness
is
the
universe and the consciousness of the universe
is
us. This connectivity
can be expressed by the word “unity”. Our universe is evolving in unity.’

They watched the entire video and when it finished Drew exhaled. ‘What a load
of shit! But credit where it’s due. Someone’s invested a hell of a lot of time
putting all that together.’

‘I have to make another
Incident Report,’ Carlos muttered, stabbing at the virtual keys on the counter
top. ‘We have to find out where these e-mails are coming from.’

‘Don’t worry, you will.
There’ll be an explanation. Has to be. By the time you get in, Hans will have
sussed it out. Mark my words.’

Carlos carried on
typing. ‘Drew, I need your details. I have to put you on this report. Security
requirements. You know what it’s like.’

Carlos hit the send
button and walked round the counter. His body was now ready for coffee –
in fact, it was craving coffee – he didn’t care how dehydrated he was. He
poured fresh mugs for himself and Drew.

‘I tell you something,’
Drew said, ‘some of what that bloke just said was pretty incredible.’

‘
Sí lo sé
. He
described a completely new model of the expanding universe. Claiming it started
as a conscious being called the One, a pure point without time and space with
the perfect symmetry of a sphere, then separated its energy into two parts with
different rates of vibration swirling in opposite directions and saying that’s
what we call dark energy…’

‘
We
reckon dark
energy makes up about seventy per cent of the universe and that it’s
responsible for pushing space to expand, and there
he
is,’ Drew gestured
to the screen, ‘saying the two components of the differently vibrating dark
energies collided and blended and were compressed to form a miniature replica
sphere inside the original and that it’s the process of this being repeated and
repeated until billions of spheres are nested within the original that causes
the physical size of the sphere to expand. I mean, he’s saying the same thing.
Just in a different way.’

‘
Sí
. And because
the interior pressure is constantly pulsing inside the sphere as it expands but
the exterior surface of the original sphere is under constant pressure from outside
limiting the size to which it can grow, when it can’t get any bigger and all
the available energy from the dark energy is used up, the force of the outside
pressure collapses the sphere back into a point of singularity, what he calls
the shift into Oneness, with no consciousness of separation… only a
consciousness of unity… and that’s the completion of the One’s full cycle of
evolution…’

‘… and the beginning of
a new cycle,’ Drew shook his head. ‘He’s describing cyclic cosmology. And what
about linking the evolutionary process to vibration? That when the frequency of
vibration increases, the geometry of matter becomes more complex? Come on,’
Drew said, ‘let’s watch it again.’

So Carlos replayed the
video.

‘Up to this bit he
almost has me hooked,’ Drew said.

‘The structure of our
universe,’ the old man continued, ‘is determined by vibration that forms many
different stages of density partitioned into eight progressive and discrete
levels. Each level of density incorporates a journey through higher and higher
sub-densities of vibration, culminating in a quantum shift to the next level.

‘The number eight is
significant. It relates to the Platonic solid shapes comprising our universe,
the notes in your octave of the diatonic scale and when the seven colours of
your spectrum combine and merge to create the all-encompassing white light, it
also totals eight.

‘The process of
evolution is not the smooth flow of development you previously understood it to
be. Think of ice, Carlos. Ice is the state of water when frozen. When ice is
heated, its rate of vibration and therefore its temperature increases. At a
specific vibration and temperature level, ice experiences a quantum shift. It
changes its state from a solid to that of a liquid. Similarly, when water is
heated, its rate of vibration and therefore its temperature increases until it
experiences another quantum shift and changes from a liquid to a vapour. You
humans use the term “phase transition” to describe this phenomenon, which can
equally be used to describe the process of evolution and the analogy will help
you more easily understand its quantum nature.

‘It is important you
know that although every particle in our universe has a degree of existence in
each density, it is the consciousness of an entity, for you Carlos the
consciousness of your planet Earth together with your human consciousness, that
focuses matter in the prevailing density.

‘You humans, your planet
Earth and indeed your whole galaxy is focused in the third density. This is
represented by the Platonic solid shape of an octahedron, the vibration you
humans perceive as your colour yellow, and the note “mi” on the scale of the
octave.

‘The
Galactic Federation is from the sixth density.’ The image smiled a radiant
smile and with outstretched arms drew attention to its lustrous robe. ‘You
humans perceive the vibration of our density as the colour indigo. Our Platonic
solid shape is the dodecahedron and our note on the scale of the octave is
“la”.

‘As you now understand,
Carlos, evolution is not as you traditionally believed it to be. It involves
much more than genetic evolution. It is far more complex than the majority of
you humans realise.’

‘For Christ’s sake,’
Carlos said, ‘why’s he telling me all this?’

The man’s rich voice
continued. ‘Let us now explain how this relates to you humans on the planet
Earth.

‘In the beginning your
planet existed in the first density, represented by what you humans name the
elements – earth, air, fire and water – where there is empty
awareness and no central focus of space or time. Your Earth existed in this way
for millions of your human years. Gradually awareness became more localised,
causing the geometric patterns of the matter on your planet to become more
complex and intelligent until they were able to form amino acids and eventually
DNA molecules. This is what marked your planet’s quantum evolution from the
first to second density.

‘During the second
density and after the appearance of DNA, single-celled organisms developed into
plants, fish, birds and animals. At the same time, the consciousness of the One
evolved into collective consciousness typical of the second density. It was the
appearance of human beings,
Homo sapiens
, that marked the second quantum
shift, the evolution from second to third density, where you and your planet
are now.

‘This occurred because
the human animal progressed towards building societies in which, unlike other
animals, it was not simply concerned with the pursuit of survival. This allowed
the simultaneous development of the neo-mammalian part of its brain, the area
devoted to reason and language, thus facilitating a layering of increasingly
sophisticated abilities and emotions, such as creativity and compassion. Other
animals may have developed communication systems, but mankind has the creative
ability to invent spoken and written languages that he can teach to other
humans fluent only in their own language.

‘Third
density is a critical stage of evolution. Resulting from the range of
expression available through language, something else developed in you humans,
something that had never before on Earth been consciously employed. As third
density entities broke free of collective consciousness, each developed its own
individual consciousness, its own free will. To a greater or lesser degree, all
animals on your planet use free will. The significant difference for you humans
is the sophisticated ability you possess to consciously project the effects of
your free will choices. The essence of third density experience, Carlos, is
learning how to predict and manage the use of free will for the greater good of
all.

‘You see the
consciousness of the One develops into collective consciousness typical of the
second density, breaks up into individual consciousness typical of the third
density and evolves through the remaining densities back full circle to reunify
as the united consciousness of the One. The goal of the Creator is to have each
separate conscious entity develop its own free will to its full potential and
use it to follow the path leading back to Oneness.’

Drew shifted on the
stool and crossed his arms, ‘It’s all this New Age bullshit I can’t hack.’

‘Our universe is at
different stages within the evolutionary process. Right now your galaxy is
preparing to shift, with your Earth and all those humans that are ready, to the
fourth density, which is represented by the Platonic solid shape of a star
tetrahedron, the vibration you humans perceive as the colour green and the note
“fah” on the scale of the octave…’

‘Fucking “Sound of
Music”…’

‘… you humans will
experience a change in the basic characteristics of matter, energy and
consciousness. Mankind will evolve from physical beings to spiritual ones.

‘Many humans on your
planet already know the date this event is due to take place. As we are sure you
are aware, your ancient Mayan calendar predicts that on the 21st of December
2012…’

‘And this is where I bow
out completely,’ Drew said pushing back his chair.

‘… your sun will rise
and conjunct the intersection of your Milky Way with the plane of the ecliptic.
That date is the culmination of the latest cycle you name “precession”, when
your Earth’s axis will be perfectly aligned with the centre of your galaxy. The
cosmic cross thus formed is the embodiment of the Tree of Life and manifests
the shift in energy that will occur on that auspicious date.

‘On
the 21st of December 2012, all individuals reaching the required level of
vibration will lose their physical bodies and evolve to fourth density.’

‘I mean that right
there? That’s a load of crap.’

‘The sub-density shifts
within the eight densities of evolution occur when we pass through a new
revolution of the auric cycle. For your planet Earth, one cycle lasts just over
25,000 of your years. This roughly equates to one cycle of axial precession. At
the end of your planet’s two last cycles, it sought to make an evolutionary
shift but on both occasions was unsuccessful. Although at those times the
vibration of your planet itself was barely at the fourth density level, had the
aggregate level of fourth density vibration of the existing humans been
sufficient, it would have “lifted” the overall vibration, enabling your planet
to evolve.

‘It is because your
planet is about to reach another evolutionary opportunity that we are
contacting you. The Galactic Federation is concerned about the difference in
the level of vibration generated by you humans and that generated by your Earth
and your whole galaxy and which, unless lifted, will prohibit a successful
evolution from third to fourth density. We are concerned that if the
evolutionary leap is again unsuccessful, unlike previously, the consequences
this time will be very grave.
