"Now would I give a thousand furlongs of sea for an acre of barren ground."

The Tempest, 1. 1

Interestingly enough, as many know in the Hindu pantheon this is the age of the 'kali yuga', the dark age of Kali is the ever becoming, ever destroying force of Life. She is both unimaginable horror and abundant bliss.

Kali is the Holy Paradox, like wild fire that destroys and births the forests. Much like, Jared Diamond and René Guénon before him, seasons of time are said to be historically cyclical not linear.



Guénon writes in The Crisis of the Modern World and The Reign of Quantity that the modern world has brought about a crisis, conceived by many in terms of apocalypse and the "end times" (the coming dark age of the Kali Yuga in terms of Hindu cyclical cosmology), which can only be resolved by a return of the West to the traditional outlook.

"So long as western people imagine that there only exists a single type of humanity, that there is only one 'civilization', at different stages of development, no mutual understanding will be possible. The truth is that there are many civilizations, developing along very different lines, and that, among these, that of the modern West is strangely exceptional, as some of its characteristics show. Today not everyone would agree to the concept of the "bankruptcy of this civilization", but the symptoms are there and while trends of this kind go on over a long period, they tend to accelerate towards the end of a cycle. p.10

Interestingly enough, Hurricane katrina her sister 'Rita' may be the 'kali ma' in symbolism, the etymology of the word 'Rita' means "universal order" .
