Chapter 11: Dante's overture for a new renaissance.Dante set out to explore the mentality and the processes that victimize people, in his exploration of Hell. This historic work set the stage for a beginning for humanity, that would in time, to some degree reshape the axioms that had victimized the masses of his period. It is unclear whether the extensive population collapse that occurred in 14th century Europe had already begun when the Commedia was written. The year was 1314, when the Inferno was completed. The great financial crash of 1345 lay still far in the distance by 31 years. Still, the beginning of the end might have been evident, and people may have already started to die under the ravishing yoke of financial looting. In any case, many nations are suffering this fate now. Russia has been loosing a million people per year, in spite of new births, under the economic wrecking parade of I.M.F. austerity demands, privatization, free-trade looting, mafia rule, etc.. Nor is Russia an isolated case in the world, or even in the fore-front of this theatre of social collapse, compared to Africa and other places. A new renaissance is needed in the world in order for mankind to be able to reclaim its humanity, which the present feudalist, U.N., I.M.F., and British policy dominance does not allow. In this quest for a new renaissance Dante's work becomes important once again as it had furnished a foundation for the greatest period of renaissance in human history. The principles that Dante had pursued are evidently valid principles and disserve to be recognized. With this mind, this book series has been structured along the lines of Dante, in his honor, and in recognition of the validity of his work. None-the-less, this book series is not about Dante, but is designed to explore another scientific legacy, a nearly unknown part of the work of Mary Baker Eddy that connects the last epoch of the great Renaissance that Dante had set in motion, with our present time. The work is based on a discovery of a structure of scientific principles which had remained hidden for 100 years. The structure is based on the principle of discovery and covers a large ground. It unfolds primarily in a Christian setting, where it combines the principles of discovery with the historic achievements of Christ Jesus, and the people before him, whose work unfolded at the very end of mankind's first great period of renaissance. Mary Baker Eddy named her work, that unfolded near the end of mankind's second period of renaissance, Christian Science. It is this science that she has been traditionally identified with. However, what is known about her work in public, and by the church, covers but a tiny fragment of what she has accomplished. The unknown element of her work has been discovered in the early 1980s. It comes to light as a scientific structure for learning the principle of discovery. What she created is the very antidote to dogmatic religiosity, which has pervaded not only mankind's belief systems, but also the axioms by which it acts, even its sciences and scientific institutions. She evidently understood that Christian Science was destined to collapse again unless it could reshape the world and maintain the spirit of renaissance on which it was founded. There was no evidence found in her time that this was happening. Thus, most of her advanced work was provided in a hidden form so that it would become useful when a new renaissance would provide a new and stronger foundation for its unfoldment. When she was carried to her grave in 1910, China had been depleted and destroyed as a functioning nation the European world stood at the brink of a war that would unleash the greatest period of brutalization in history. That this is not a suitable platform for the development of the science of Christ healing is self-evident. The unfolding of the Christ in human consciousness requires a platform of peace and the underpinning of a broadly based, strong, mental development. || - page index - || - chapter index - || - Exit - ||
