It's a kind of self fulfilling prophecy. We are contributing to it as we uncover it within ourselves. Something is calling us toward itself and as we approach it we become more like it. Something is sculpting out of the primate body over a couple of million years an entirely different kind of creature and as we go to meet this thing, we are taking on more and more of
it's characteristics. It's god-like power, it's ability to span space and time. And when we finally do reach it I imagine there will be a kind of effortless moment of merging and recognition.
