The need for a higher approach begun to elevate humanity when the first stone aged people shaped tools that enabled them to raise the physical platform by technological means, no matter how primitive they were. From this time to ours, nothing has fundamentally changed, except the level of technology and the input of energy into the technological system. We will never be limited by this system, because of its mental base, which has an infinite potential. Thus, we find that today's physical platform is already so greatly enhanced by mankind's mental means, through advanced discoveries and scientifically based creativity, that five thousand times as many people are now able support themselves on the same planet that once supported but a few.
This ascending development has been pursued throughout all ages. The philosopher Dante Alighieri has formalized the process of mental development in the 13th century, in his three part exploration of progression, through "Hell", "Purgatory", and "Paradise", which he called the "Commedia." The basis for this work was political and economic. It wasn't religious, but may have been designed to elevate religion out of its backwardness at the time. It was scientifically founded on a platform of Christianity that very few people understood in a non-dogmatic and scientific fashion.
Dante had explored both the social pains of his time, and the social failures, as well as the structures that are necessary for achieving progress. It is said that Dante's work in this direction, was one of the foundations upon which the Golden Renaissance unfolded a century after his death. Today, the principle that he had discovered and scientifically formalized, needs to be re-wrapped and given a new face, a new metaphor of a type that has had already a powerful effect on the development of civilization.
It is a sad thing in this context, to recognize the regressive drive that makes it desirable in this modern age to let the poor of society die for no other reason than to maintain a financial-ideological system that is rotten to the core, that is pitting men against their brother, by which both shall fall. It doesn't really matter in the end, on this demeaning platform, whether the design of the ideology is sinister by purpose or is just stupidly defective. The effect is the same. Mankind and its civilization are both doomed by it.
In order for mankind to be able to deal with what is unfolding against its very life, a certain amount of scientific self-perception is needed. When facing the exalting ordeal at Peniel, the biblical Jacob of ancient times was left alone. He wrestled with "a man," we are told. In a humanist sense, he wrestled with a dark shadow of his own mistaken identity, and found in the fight within himself a gateway to his spiritual being that had remained hidden throughout all his earlier years, which had been years filled with struggles for riches in which he had sought to find life's blessings.
In the now advanced search for redemption, Jacob's entire life may have come into focus, by which the unfolding logic of its emptiness may have caused the needed upward phase-shift to a new point of reference that he suddenly understood as a facet of a higher Truth that he had not noticed before. Such a momentous development process had become possible, because he knew what he had gone through, throughout his life, and how much of it had been in vain.
Mankind, in contrast, is mostly disconnected from its universal history. This has been caused by disinformation campaigns that blacken and degrade man's image. Mankind has suffered immensely, especially in the last century, during the ideological setup and execution of two world wars and an ugly cold war that followed right in the wake of a six year rampage of unspeakable atrocities. This entire last century has become a century of wars and murder on a historically unprecedented scale, driven by an empire that has become near global in its influence and domination, and by this empire's insatiable demand for human sacrifices on a truly incomprehensible scale. This is what this volume is designed to explore. It is designed to explore the defective systems that drive the current inhumanity, mankind's operational insanity. The exploration in this book is set against the background of Mary Baker Eddy's pioneering structure for scientific development.
