This is the phrase that is used by Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings to denote that the enemy shall not cross over into the new realm.
This is also the phrase that I use to denote the fact that after Covid has left us, the old ways and the old powers shall also not pass.
We are all aware that the powers behind rampant consumerism, greed, power over, will be pulling out the stops to try to lure us back into a way of life that no longer exists. But the longer that Covid remain with us the more that we as a global community, can reflect on the falseness of our former world, and how it rendered us enslaved to the puppet masters of the corporate, governmental, religious, pharmaceutical and (alas) sometimes the non profit world as well.
It would take a blind person not to see how the Earth and nature are thriving at this time. Nature does not need us, and exults in the fact that we have been removed from continuing our debilitating harm to her. As well, we are spending more time with our families and in self-reflection, and we are spending a lot of time reaching out to a global community that is sharing our fate.
We now realize that we are One.
I believe that a lot of us feel that the world we are experiencing now, thanks to the pandemic, is one that we want to bring with us once it is over.
There is no going back to a past that has been orchestrated by the puppet masters, to our demise. Their power came to an end when we self-isolated or were told to do so by our governments. Their power came to an abrupt halt with the pandemic.
And when is over they, indeed, shall not pass.
