18. Losing unity

That historical age, when the disintegration of the One and Only's truth and order – the spiritual crisis - began, dates to about the sixth century before our Initiation Master’s time. René Guénon termed it as the beginning of iron age or kali-juga, the final phase of human history. Since then, the world has become a disrupted entity, that is, the age of lying in natural sciences, music, mathematics and thinking. Since then, we face a continuous robbing and erosion of the unity. At the beginning of this age, Lao Tzu in China, Zarathustra in Iran, Pythagoras and Heraclitus in Europe, have tried once more to compile the knowledge based on the authentic existence and tradition, hopping that the deterioration can be stopped, and the crisis avoided. Since then we know that the experiment have failed.

In the analysis of losing the unity we refer to the following five points:

a) we have denied the existence, the importance of hunger for life dominates: the ancestral traditions, as the Egyptian, Iranian, Chinese, and Hindu metaphysics starts from the point whereas only the sole possible base for the idea of unity exists: the dual world, where the motionless and unchanged eternal existence and the changing life coexist. The two are ubiquitous and coherent. For those who love extreme life situations, life means to live more and more years and faster if possible. This was believed by many famous people too, Goethe for example. According to him, the action (motion) was the initial (although in the Scripture the idea, the logos were the first) and only those can be redeemed, who does not give up his activity until the very last moment. Goethe, like the church, emphasised the visible actions. Why do we wonder about the results of such heritage in over activity? The results are violence, hunger, misery, persecutions and prisons. This life-hunger and thirst does not know the action by non -action, when the One and Only is acting in us. 

b) the church has lost its guiding power, secularization: in the Middle Ages the church‘s power was only apparently true, as could not distinguish and separate the spiritual domination from mundane power. Medieval clericalism compromised Christianity until it was left without a spiritual leader. If a society exists without a spiritual leader, the society only vegetates, but not working. As there is no life without a leading head, the soul needs something else to found. Such products were the philosophies, religions, sciences which do not withstand time, but are rather momentary experiments and improvisations, a non - serious adventure. If there is no reliable leader, man is exposed to the more fearful, more intimate, and more vicious adventurers. Since then adventurism become fashionable, especially in politics. From about the fourth century after our Initiation Master’s time, the ruling power of the Catholic Church became obvious, proclaiming itself definitive and everlasting, promising to resolve all the questions of existence, albeit, at the end seriously misleading its own self. 

c) science became a tool of power: the supporters of the Cartesian doctrine omitted the One and Only from science. All things rational and understandable for rational reasons of the mind were being called scientific. Entirely independent of whether the theories are conforming to reality or not, the influence of science depended on what degree it was able to compromise the world image of clergy. The ideas cultivated by Darwin, Freud and others were no other than malicious glee for finally unmasking the Middle Ages. But we can go further, and to state the same concerning anti- Christian socialism, globalist capitalism, and today’s democracy, all as a revenge on medieval spirituality. For example, as socialism wanted to hide and protect itself, and simultaneously provide a perfect defensive position, a new idiom was invented: the scientific socialism. Science became a name, a concept and a common code of a fraud driven system. The whole modern era is determined by the anti-religious and anti- Christian way of thinking, although religion and Christianity is not the same. Today, we see that one member of the global world government, the European Union excluded any reference to Christianity from its constitution. In the Middle Ages, the clergy (theocracy in the old alliance) strived for world power, nowadays the global invisible hand. 

d) the continuous exercise of power via influenced worldviews: those committed to certain ideologies, for example the Jacobin -Bolshevik and other globalist processes, are misleading and mendacious. Unfortunately not only in public life, but in science, philosophy, religion, and the arts as well. The continuous and regular lie became an accepted rule, closing out everything else- Lie is a pseudo existence submerged in a fraud system. Some people are thinking on themselves as saviours. But salvation may be misleading. Self - proclaimed, fake saviours usually want to redeem humanity all at once, firstly by using nice words, then by commanding, and as last possibility by imprisonment, forced labour, and military force. A dictator may also be a saviour, but in the very end of the line of other redeemers. What is intelligence in a true man is an idiocy in a dictator. What knowledge and purity is in a true man, the mania, confusion and power desire is in a dictator. The desire for power can be found not only in the hard line military dictator, but also in the white-collar political dictators in many cases having as pressure tool the marketing and media in their hands. The international financial markets, corporations are examples of such dictatorships. Do not forget, that many governments use both methods. 

e) an increasingly number of people is living below the spiritual minimum: the opposite of the normal, true man is the abnormal, the liar, who isn’t led by the spirit of the One and Only, but by an obsessive material faith or ideology. As they live their lives below the so-called spiritual minimum, i.e. a pseudo-spiritual direction, they are untalented. Should society’s existence depend on the wealth of its talented members, then societies with spiritual minimums will easily be broken down and slowly disappear. We're witnessing this today. Spiritual minimum is rationalism too, having brought technology along, rapidly introduced the mechanization of life. Everything is activated by pressing buttons: the microwave, the TV, the car or the mobile phone. We can say that today's virtual man has reached the level of Captain Nemo, because all devices used in his apartment, for example the heating, window shades are switched on by a button, just as starting the car in the garage or opening the gate.

In a similar way, below the spiritual minimum lives that average man, who is called Homo Faber, meaning the one who produce things, in other words the operational man. The Hebrew tradition says that creation is perfect once the four stages have been passed on. The first is the sphere of potency, as an opportunity and thought. The second one is the virtual world, which is the first step of realisation. This is followed by the moulding of things and finally the physical actual action. The operational man de facto only active in this last fourth round. He/she only deals with what can be made manually. Today, most inventions are such products, of which the intellectual creation and the pursuit of perfection are missing.
