The Indigo Children-- Who Are They?

"The times they are a changing". Of that, none of us would argue. Indeed, the pace of change is so fast these days that it isn't just the oldies that are being challenged, but even the children. Except something has happened to our younger generations, an acceleration of their minds and souls, as if nature were preparing them for the accelerated world we find ourselves in and the world we are moving in to. Not only are times a changing, but so are we, and this change--dare I say evolution--is naturally most clearly obvious within the younger generations that enter our world. You may have noticed children being vastly different these days, you may be one of these changelings yourself. Coming under the names of "indigo children", "crystal children", and so forth, they are a phenomenon which spans the divides of geography, race, or religion. They are here, and they are everywhere. Welcome to the world of the new kids on the block, the fruits of the evolution revolution in human consciousness.

The indigos, by their very nature, can be hard to define. They resist labels and hate nothing more than limiting perception. However, ...
... we live in a world of labels, and so whilst "indigo" may seem inappropriate in many ways, we realise there are worse labels out there like "Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder", a common psychiatric explanation given for these children. Doreen Virtue turns that label on its head beautifully by re-labelling ADHD "Attention Dialled into A Higher Dimension"! Enough said...

The new kids, indigos, crystals, starkids, are evidence of an "evolution revolution" in human consciousness. We are not static either as individuals or as a planetary consciousness. We are changing all the time. The monkeys might not be jumping out of the trees and we may not be growing two heads, but we are evolving rapidly nevertheless! Most evolution is very powerful and yet often goes unnoticed, because the difference between a chimp and ourselves is what we're doing "upstairs" i.e. our minds. Just like a computer can be upgraded with new programmes, so can the human mind.

An evolution, a new breed of humanity, has been predicted since the so-called dark ages, most notably by the Mayans. We are said to be in the age of the "fifth root race." Many mystics and psychics have alluded to this event and also the date of 2012 when the Mayans calendar is said to "run out. " Some believe this is the dawning of a new era of human consciousness.

I believe it is an "evolution revolution" of human consciousness, which first was noticed in modern times by Nancy Anne Tappe in the late 70s, a parapsychologist who started noticing children with indigo auras. By 1984 it was believed masses of these children were coming in, and today most children are "indigo". They are thus the New Kids on the Block, preparing us for what lies in store 2012.

There's a lot more to it than that of course -- so watch this space... ;o)

Please note that the indigos and star-kids may be different but they are still human. The main point is that physical age has nothing to do with spiritual and psychic wise-ness. The Soul has it's own age. In the words of Swami Prabhupada:
 
"The body is changing--from one form to another--but the spirit soul is existing eternally without changes. ...our body has been changing... This process is generally known as 'growth', but actually it is a change of body.
On this earth we see change of day and night, and change of season. The more primitive mentality attributes this phenomenon to changes occurring in the sun. ...weaker...[or] dead. With more advanced knowledge we see that the sun is not changing at all..."

And with more advanced knowledge we find that physical age does not determine Soul age. We are all "older than our years", including our children!
