12 THE DIFFERENT HUMAN VERSIONS
At present, it is difficult to find the fossil remains of the first men or rather of the different stages that primates went through to form modern man, this is because evolution usually works through sudden jumps in the same way as evolution. Earth's crust moves suddenly with earthquakes, it could be said then that the jump from monkey to man was also a biological earthquake and those human versions between man and monkey were just a kind of bridge that once crossed disappeared, that is to say that these intermediate human versions could not be maintained as they were only unstable and transitional models that only served as a means to reach the human form. This is what happened to the Neanderthal or Cro-Magnon man. In other words, nature slowly prepares the changes without being noticed over hundreds of thousands of years by making small changes in the genes that are not visible to the naked eye, therefore, a sudden evolutionary leap is only possible as a consequence of many small changes above. When nature completes a cycle of small changes produced slowly over a long time, then it is only possible to continue progress by going up to another evolutionary level, but this is only possible through a sudden and rapid change to go to a higher level. The biological change that is necessary to pass from ape to man, although in general it is considered sudden, however it could have taken thousands of years to complete, this amount of time may seem long compared to a human life, but it is short when compared with the previous time cycle. As this process of biological change was something exceptional and unstable, the animal versions between man and ape disappeared because they were not intended to remain continuously but only to cover the distance that separates both species. This could be compared to the evolution of the solar system, because currently there are only a small part of the worlds that existed at the beginning, because the planets clean their orbits from other smaller planets by absorbing them. Similarly, nature only conserves those species that are continuously stable and not those like those between the ape and man that were only useful as a transitional medium until they reached human form.
This also happens with the great nations, because there are numerous examples of empires that, having existed for many centuries, however disappeared suddenly, this does not happen because something has changed suddenly, but because nature tends to follow its inertia which causes small symptoms of subsidence are not clearly visible until complete collapse occurs. Other examples of leaps in history are, the initial explosion that generated the cosmos, the appearance of the first stars and planets, the appearance of the first unicellular beings, the appearance of plants, the appearance of animals, the appearance of man, the discovery of fire, agriculture, writing, the industrial revolution. This process progresses on shorter and shorter scales of time because biological or technological development makes subsequent stages easier because more and more information is available. This means that the world has little left to finish its process of technological and moral development.
Due to the ignorance that the ancient philosophers had of the real process of evolution that led to the human form, it became popular to believe that man had been made through spontaneous creation, they believed that spirits or superior beings had created man directly without passing by the most primitive animal forms. Unfortunately, when scientific discoveries proved otherwise, these philosophers or religious refused to accept the evidence, because at that time their religious structure was too complex and rigid to accept the evidence provided by those who were not part of their congregation. From that moment on, they acted arrogantly by hiding their most important beliefs from the initiates, this they did for two main reasons, firstly because in this way they created a false expectation in their followers by telling them that those secret knowledge was only available to them they could offer if they remained many years in service to the congregation and, in many cases, working for it at no charge. By the time these adherents rose through the ranks of the congregation and discovered that those beliefs were only beliefs and not evidence, then they generally decided to maintain the system with the new adherents, because then they were the beneficiaries if they kept the secret. It was a kind of pyramid hoax. How can you believe that the claims of these religious are true, when many of these ideas had occurred to them while taking drugs in the moonlight with their hallucinogenic drink (Soma)? They thought they were very intelligent, but they were not able to understand that drugs are the opposite of reason.
Secondly, the religious and occultists chose to hide those beliefs or rather the supposed proofs of those beliefs due to a mixture of shame and arrogance, because they did not want to admit to their followers that in reality what they called "hidden knowledge" was based partly in their own opinions and not in contrasted evidence, that is to say that they called evidence a sum of mythological tales and legends albeit mixed with some great philosophical ideas. They claimed to have all the wisdom, but they considered that this knowledge was summarized to the beliefs that the sect had, which is not the same as the whole truth. It is true that the ancient philosophers or priests managed to discover some secrets of the universe, especially in metaphysics and astronomy, but the more science advanced the more the error was demonstrated in their opinions on many aspects of nature, but as they were not willing to recognize it they preferred to create a smokescreen and say that the most definitive evidence could not be delivered to citizens on the grounds that they would not be able to understand it.
With that attitude, they demonstrated the same materialistic behavior as the western scientists they criticized, because progress is only possible when you are flexible in ideas, but when there are many vested interests around a lie, it is common that even knowing the truth continue with the lie. It is surprising that these religious or their occult followers are unable to understand that many of those tales, fables and superstitions in which they believe are only based on half truths. How is progress going to be possible if there is no self-criticism? Even so, I consider myself closer to occultists than to materialistic scientists, because when it comes to pure philosophy I think they are very right in some things, but it is necessary for them to realize that the fables and tales of the past only They are that, and the fact that they have a part of truth does not give them the right to affirm that all their ideas are absolute truths.
It is possible that much of these "hidden knowledge" that the priests of ancient religions did not want to divulge, are actually the methods they used to invoke the spirits they considered gods, and that perhaps they kept secret to avoid that someone could accuse them of witchcraft and unleash a persecution against them. It is also possible that they were concealed to prevent an inexperienced apprentice from harming himself or using them to harm others if these techniques were taught too early. In any case, the ancient philosophers or priests belonged to backward societies, so it was impossible that they could possess all the knowledge, only the citizens of the future will be able to one day approach the true truth.
Similarly, materialistic scientists have to abandon their dry attitude and recognize that matter cannot function without a soul with a life of its own to encourage it. It could be said that occultists and theosophists are characterized by recognizing only the spiritual or blue part of nature, while materialistic scientists only recognize the material or red part of it, therefore, a science that adequately combines the two values is necessary to result in the truth and life represented by the green color that arises when red and blue are united. Unfortunately, many occultists could have gone down in history as excellent historians of mythology if the legends they studied had not been literally believed, but they were not able to understand, that although these stories generally have a part of truth, it is necessary to study them with skepticism to find out which part is correct and which is not. I do not mean to say that they believed everything they read, but they lacked the scientific mindset to be able to achieve a totally unbiased analysis, although it is fair to say that materialistic scientists are just as stubborn when it comes to recognizing the spiritual side of life. Unfortunately, current scientists tend to hide their prejudices behind science, to make us believe that they are very scientific, and all because they are not capable of separating one thing from the other.
It is also surprising that occultists claim to have texts written in prehistoric times, considering that writing has only existed for a few thousand years in the world. To today's citizens, ancient texts may seem very distant, but complex languages and writing made up of many words capable of correctly expressing an idea has only existed for a few thousand years, which is why those who claim to have texts Writings from tens of thousands of years ago show great imagination but little scientific study. They claim that these civilizations were destroyed by cataclysms, but if that were true, why are there no archaeological remains to prove it? Because it is evident that if in the past there had been a civilization with a similar technological level to the one that exists today, then there would be thousands of tests that could prove it and not just hypotheses.
Another myth of the occultists is to believe that the continents remain one time emerged and another time submerged, in this way they try to justify the disappearance of the mythical continent of Atlantis, but science has shown that this is a mistake, because since the Earth was formed there have always been the same emerged continents, what has existed is the drift of the continents that causes them to move away from each other several centimeters every year. In the past there were also lakes where now there are deserts and changes in the coastlines due to the deposit of soil on the beaches from the erosion of the mountains, but the continents have always been the same.
The truth is that the beliefs of the ancient philosophers and occultists were close to the truth, but they were lost in darkness and error by refusing to coordinate the discoveries of science with their own ideas, because when they said that the first men had been semi-transparent and boneless were wrong, because in reality it was the first animals and unicellular beings that had these characteristics. Then from them, through biological evolution, men were derived. When they said that man had existed before the animals were wrong again, because first the animals came before man, if we refer to him as a physical being, however, it is true, that the spirit existed before the animals, and he was also responsible for its existence.
The mistake, therefore, was to call the spirit man, and to believe that the spirit always had the human form. In reality, the spirit in its pure and original form is only a sphere of energy that is housed in the brain, what we call a phantom, it is only an artificial body that imitates the human form and that developed after the appearance of the man to make the passage from one reincarnation to another easier for the spirit. They believed that man had appeared on Earth by spontaneous creation or by increasing the spirit's density by adding matter from the earth around it, but they thought this way because they did not understand that to make a human being the most logical thing is to follow a process of evolution from zero starting with the simplest organic beings to the most complex. The creationist theory does not make sense, because in those initial moments the spirits could not even know what was the most advanced physical form, which is the human form, and this was only known after the end of the biological evolution process. In other words, they would be right in that it was the spirits who, acting on matter, would have built the physical forms, but they would be wrong in not being able to understand that the most adequate way to do this is through the natural evolution of the species. The process of evolution from scratch going from less to more is useful to spirits, because in this way it is possible to build a civilization totally independent of the spiritual world, in this way human life would be more intense by temporarily forgetting their experiences prior to reincarnation, they would be thus two different dimensions but just as necessary.
Occultists claim that the fact that many cultures of the world share the same generic ideas shows that they are true, but they do not take into account that in the past humanity was reduced to a few thousand individuals, and of those thousands only a few were those responsible for civilization. This process began in Mesopotamia around 6000 BC. C, at that time the world was undergoing climatic changes due to the end of the glaciation, it is probable that this change caused drought in some areas, which forced the population to look for an alternative remedy, the solution was to develop an organized system of crops which made it possible for nomadism to be abandoned. As a consequence the population increased rapidly in numbers and in scientific discoveries. This sudden change supposed an evolutionary advantage over the rest of humanity and when all these discoveries were exported to Egypt and other places, myths and religious beliefs were also exported, which explains the homogeneity in some of their beliefs. In time, this process of sudden change and development would make such an impression on neighboring peoples that the first kings of that civilization would be regarded as gods on Earth. The ancient kings also promoted this belief, especially the Egyptians, because they thought that the more distance there was between them and the people, the more difficult it would be for revolts against them to rise up for that, in addition to being political leaders they also tried to be religious leaders.
When the first civilization spread across the Earth, it merged with the primitive populations of those territories, giving rise to the biblical legend in which it was said that the sons of God were united with the daughters of men. In other words, "the sons of God" would actually be the descendants of that first civilization, and the "daughters of men" would be the peoples who conquered and from whom they took women to marry. It is also said that as a result of that union between gods and men the giants arose, but they would not be giant men, but giant civilizations, which as a result of their expansion throughout the world built the pyramids and all the great monuments of the stone age or made of bronze. With these great constructions they tried to symbolize their awakening as a civilization and also the difference between man and animals. The use of these constructions was varied, they could be from simple statues of their kings or gods to others such as Stonehenge or Göbekli Tepe that served as solar clocks to organize the crops.
Another belief that also existed in the past was that the evolution of spirits required leaving some worlds and moving on to others in a staggered way according to their level of evolution as if they were the classrooms of a school, but in my opinion this is a wrong belief, Because the fact that some beings are ahead of the majority is not enough reason for them to have to move to other planets, they will always be more useful for the progress of humanity if they stay to help other citizens, especially if we have in account that this evolutionary level was reached here. How is the world going to evolve if its best individuals leave it? This belief arises when one has an overly pessimistic opinion about the world, and also when it is not understood that the problems of humanity will not last forever and one day the technological and moral maturity necessary for there to be peace will be reached.
That moment of technological and social plenitude is what is defined in all cultures as "getting to heaven." Those who think that way think that it is only possible to reach that perfect world after death, but they believe that it is necessary to change the planet or dimension to achieve it, they think this way, because they do not understand that the key is in reincarnation, because connects that dark past that we want to get away from with that ideal future we want to reach. It is a journey that we make passing from one life to the other until we reach the destination. Someday, spirits will be able to travel to other worlds, but only when human civilization finishes its evolutionary process, then the spirits that now wait in the form of plants or animals will be able to reincarnate as men to colonize the rest of the uninhabited planets in our environment.
Probably, one of the reasons for the materialistic attitude of today's society is due to the fact that the universe, and consequently civilization, come from a world predominantly influenced by chaos and the color red that symbolizes matter. At first, the excess energy that was common in the universe caused confusion and disorder that made it difficult for humanity to see the higher aspects of the cosmos, represented by the color blue. This favored that at the beginning, the material and immediate aspects of life were taken into account too much and the spiritual ones were forgotten. The destiny of the universe and of humanity is to move towards a colder and blue world and consequently more spiritual, but also provided with much more order, which will favor it being more evolved. In the coming centuries, humanity will live a great awakening of spiritualism in the world, this is necessary, because man can only become a superior being when he properly balances these two universal values, therefore, it is necessary that he give it the same value to matter than to spirit. Humanity will only achieve perfection when it understands that to be happy it is necessary to take into account the present reality, but it must also be recognized that there is the cyclical nature of the universe, which is just as important and connects us with the future.
Many old and current writers try to make a living from their literary work, but when they realize that the earnings do not give them to live because their evidence is scarce, they choose to mislead people by creating expectations by using false evidence to attract buyers and they do not hesitate to live off the lie as long as their readers do not realize it. It is also common for them to copy themselves incessantly, so all their flashy lies serve to create a fictional universe shared by all of them. An example of this is (The Urantia Book), this book, in my opinion, was largely inspired by the book (The Secret Doctrine) by Elena Blabatski, but made some modifications so as not to clash with Christian orthodoxy. The author, with this book, tried to give a spiritual version of the story that would serve to counteract the popularity of Darwin's doctrines.
As for Elena Blabatsky, I think she represents all the best and worst at the same time, the best because as a specialist in ancient philosophy and mythology she was excellent, and the worst because she had such a devotion to the ancient that she lost perspective scientific It cannot be denied that he was right when he accused the Catholic Church of having copied many customs and rituals of the pagan religions which he was trying to destroy, but his attitude against the Bible seems unfair, considering that it is one of the books neater and with a more refined spirituality that exist. In my opinion, she was dominated by envy, because she could not bear the importance that Christianity or Judaism had in the West and therefore, she dedicated herself to criticizing these religions incessantly in order to replace them with Hinduism, Buddhism or polytheism.
This attitude, which is common in Theosophists, makes this movement stale and backward, because it is one thing to recognize the knowledge that the ancient religions had, and another thing to believe that they possessed the whole truth, because although it is true that they had extensive knowledge of philosophy and spirituality, it is also true that they made big mistakes, especially when it comes to the geological or biological past of the world. It is a mistake to try to summarize it all by saying that they were absolutely right and others were wrong in general, because this world still has a long way to go to reach the truth, and therefore it is logical that the human beliefs of both spiritualists as of the materialists they are plagued with successes and errors. The truth is that the spirit exists and the matter also, for that reason, it is necessary that these two ideological movements come to understand each other to reach the truth.
It is not possible to understand the essence of matter without accepting that life exists within it, because matter is ultimately an expression of life, spiritualism tries to demonstrate this principle, therefore, materialistic science will not be complete until it recognizes this truth. It is also surprising that many of the theosophists and occultists emphasize the existence of spirits or superior entities, but they never speak of the existence on Earth of extraterrestrial beings of flesh and blood, they summarize everything to the world of spirits, they do not have in account, that many of the events associated with the gods in the past, were not caused only by superior spirits, but also by beings from other planets.
At present, there are many writers who deal with these issues with an obvious profit motive, they exaggerate and distort the facts to make their books more interesting and thus earn money, this happens especially with those who try to live only from the writing. In my case it is different, because I make my books out of vocation and motivated by the illusion of finding the scientific and philosophical truth of things, but I am not financially dependent on these books unlike so many imposters who fill the bookstores with their false works. With their lies they sow the society of mistrust, but many spiritual or UFO-type events are real despite their deceptions and exaggerations.
In my opinion, many of the beliefs of ancient philosophers or occultists are real, but they have the necessary ignorance or stubbornness not to recognize those in which they are not right, as for example regarding the proofs that show that man descended from the monkey or how was the evolution of the continents. These tests are clear and evident today and yet many refuse to accept them just because they follow religious orthodoxy derived from a time when only the spontaneous creation of man or animals was believed. When a philosopher is unbiased, he has to be willing to give up his beliefs when the evidence is strong enough.
The ancient religious believed that living beings had been created suddenly because they were unaware of the natural evolutionary process of the species, which consists in the fact that a lower animal can become a superior animal through genetic mutations over millions of years, then If Darwin's theory of the evolution of species was discovered, it would be logical that all those interested in the progress of science would have accepted it, but both religious and occultists showed great resistance to accepting it, because once the Prejudices become dogma The entire religious apparatus is in danger when someone wants to question the dogma, because those who live by dogma fear that the changes will question their privileges for that reason, they prefer to maintain a lie than to recognize that they are not infallible.
The ancient priests of the polytheistic religions and later the Catholic Church also acquired prejudices when it comes to sexuality or reproduction, possibly the cause was that by living in monasteries isolated from the rest of the people where only members of a single They chose to imagine a spiritual world in which their gods were divided between those who accepted sexuality and those who did not, and apparently this second group had them in better consideration. When they imagined higher beings in this way, they were suggesting that they were just like themselves, which in my opinion was clearly arrogant behavior. It is also possible that these prejudices were the consequence of having a distorted vision of the concept of virginity, because it is morally correct to become a virgin at marriage, especially when contraceptive methods are not available, but it is completely absurd to demand virginity as something essential to be in accordance with the religious rule. It is true that those who form a family have more difficulties to dedicate themselves to meditation than a priest, but it is also true that sex is a fundamental element in the universe, and if there were not those who have children there would not be priests or any other person because the human species would not exist. Philosophy is one of the functions necessary for civilization to prosper but not the only one, therefore, those who promote prejudice towards sex have only succeeded in turning monasteries into homosexual nests instead of meditation sites dedicated to extol nature.
Those who think that philosophy alone is enough to fill our lives make a big mistake, because philosophy can help us to be happy, but a person who lives locked up in a monastery can end up feeling a great emptiness in the end, because when At first, when they discover the excitement of the spiritual ideas taught there, they may feel excited, but that alone may be insufficient, because they cannot even know if those supposed teachings are true. The bottom line is that only when we form a family do we really feel accompanied, because only one family entertains and fills us indefinitely. It is true that having a child involves a great job for parents, but it is also true that whoever has a child does not know what boredom is again because each day of their life is a new discovery. Philosophy could be defined as the science that studies life in its theoretical aspect, therefore, to be completely happy it may be necessary to combine it with the practical part of life that represents having a family or a job.
Philosophy, until it is put into practice, is only theory, because philosophy is equivalent to energy and belongs to the vertical dimension, and practice is equivalent to matter and belongs to the horizontal dimension, that means, only when the two are united, the balance is achieved. Energy without matter is incapable of producing force, and matter without energy produces the same result. In the same way, the philosophy that is not put into practice is just a simple project without demonstrating, and practical life without a philosophy that organizes it and makes it progress is also nothing, therefore, for life to be perfect, it is It is necessary to combine both aspects equally except in exceptional situations. It is true that to achieve a deep philosophical analysis it is necessary to achieve a certain distance from society, but that can only be applicable to a minority of people and in exceptional circumstances, because for the majority of the population the ideal is the harmonic relationship between the meditation and physical life.
Philosophy is spirit and family or work are part of life in matter, but only when spirit and body, or matter and energy come together, is the balance of the two dimensions reached. Because matter is nothing without spirit and spirit is nothing without matter. There may be situations that justify a life dedicated only to spiritual endeavor, but that can only make sense on very rare occasions.
