The dawn of time

Looking back toward the dawn of civilization: we could not survive alone. So we were obliged to come together. We lived in a symbolic world in the classic (holistic) sense. Not because it was politically correct or because it was imposed by society or because it was good for our health – rather, it was because we had no wall separating the magic from what we call ‘reality’.

So in the very beginning, when you heard thunder – it was God speaking. You looked to the mountain – it was God who lived there. You looked to the fire – a God was also there.
So compared to the beginning, we were what we still are now – but which we no longer recognize — we were ONE. Full of imagination and creativity.
Human beings were like cells from the same body, and these cells interacted with one another, for better or for worse.
But then we lost this “oneness” as society became more schizophrenic.

We were individuals, but at the same time we were the tribe – society. There are some studies showing that at the very beginning we were monotheists as we could not put god everywhere.
But then polytheism gradually emerged. We started naming places and giving gods and goddesses specific tasks.

Embedded in our genes is this sense of oneness which does not imply sacrificing our individuality. We had this connection with nature because we could not remain in the same place for long. We had to stretch and go beyond our limits because the basics – food, water, shelter – were elsewhere, so we had to move. This meant that we did not get attached to any one place, which also affected our values because we were constantly going beyond our comfort zone – we were forced to go to the second, third, fourth, etc. mountain – but then eventually, everything changed.
Moving from hunters to dwellers – we settled down, we stopped moving.

Time to be ready to new adventures!

    The movie/documentary “Life In A Day” gave me this same feeling of oneness with all people in the world.

  2. Well it is what we call at- one- ment…

    It’s like the old Filipino Adage : ang lahat ng bagay ay magkaugnay!

    Everything on earth are interrelated.

    1. Everything on earth is interrelated. My apology…

    It’s amazing to hear what you are thinking. Sometimes I feel like I am all alone. But everything is actually connected in one eventhough we forget our oneness.

    The dawn has come and gone, the dusk has come and gone, it’s night and a new dawn awaits. Everything is light and truth, nothing is darknes and lies. Nothing to understand everything. Light and truth rests in all.

    Empezaré diciendo que siempre lo he admirado por ser capaz de plasmar sentimientos en sus libros con esa sencillez y autenticidad.. y además algo curioso que me pasa, es que cuando dudo en la vida de algo, de pasos a dar, o simplemente necesito una inyección de autoestima, sólo tengo que coger un libro suyo, abrirlo por cualquier página y ahí encuentro mi respuesta o simplemente el pequeño empujón para seguir luchar ese día.
    Creo que éste encuentro o simplemente ésta unión que usted va intentar hacer, ya simplemente con el hecho de que cientos de personas y Más, nos pongamos a pensar en un pequeño episodio de uno de sus libros, sólo ese instante ya nos hará que dejemos de pensar en los problemas cotidianos o simplemente en los problemas que no son tan problemas, y por supuesto que tengamos un encuentro en cualquier dimensión todos lo que tenemos unos pensamientos similares y que vemos más allá, que otras mentes.
    Lo que si tengo claro, es que en ésta vida nos vamos encontrando con señales continuamente, sólo tenemos que estar atentos y creer en ellas..y sólo unos cuántos evolucionarán y pasarán a otros niveles u otras dimensiones..
    La vida es una sucesión de etapas, no debemos quedarnos estancados en ellas.
    Todas éstas personas a lo largo del camino nos iremos encontrando y con sólo un instante nos daremos cuenta que estamos con las personas que nos llenarán y llenaremos de energía y nos necesitaremos para darnos la mano en éste camino que nos queda (igual que el hombre que cayó en el agujero como cuenta en el episodio del bambú chino).
    La vida es corta, rompamos las reglas, perdonemos rápido, besemos lentamente , amemos de verdad, riamos sin control y nunca dejemos de sonreír por mas extraño que sea el motivo.
    Puede que la vida no sea la fiesta que esperábamos , pero mientras estemos aquí, VIVAMOSLA.
    Gracias por existir y espero encontrarme con usted, en ésta vida o dimensión o en otra, pero seguro que nos cruzaremos en algún momento.
    Un saludo con mucho afecto.

  6. Achieving Happiness.
    Self healing is possible with self realization. Realizing ones own purpose of life. Every one has a certain constructive purpose, to be achieved, by utilizing the talents embedded within. Giving constructive contribution to ones own life, to provide happiness to oneself. Happiness is possible with satisfaction. Satisfaction is possible with justice. Justice is possible with freedom. Freedom is possible with constructive optimism, thus freedom is lost when miss utilized destructively.

    Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in getting up after every fall. – Confucius.

    Every thing is inter connected by intelligence.
    Intelligence is nature’s creation. Every thing in nature communicates using vibrations. Intelligence can either be constructive or destructive. Thus to protect nature, god is a concept of constructive optimism, which is binding the nature. Thus the concept of god has been related to constructive concepts, such as love, compassion, brotherhood, etc to enhance peace and prosperity. To generate the positive vibrations in human mind, thus to influence any other living or non-living natures creation.
    Any kind of destructive concept, such as anger, hatred, frustrations, etc can eventually propagate negative vibrations.

    Religion is just the outer skin, where as spiritual peace is the inner core of every religion. The ultimate aim and purpose of every religion is to achieve this inner peace. Killing animals leads to destructive vibrations of fear and misery. The animal while being killed, experience great amount of pain, thus the entire body of killed animal contains cells with negative vibrations of pain and misery. The body cells of killed animals contain these destructive vibrations, which in turn enter the body of others when consumed.
    Thus vegetarianism helps achieve peace and harmony.

    Darwin’s Theory: Every living-thing has intelligence to evolve up-to next level of generation.
    Here are a few examples to prove the immense power of intelligence. according to Darwin’s theory of evolution. Even an small living thing has the required intelligence to protect itself, to create the necessary features of protection, just by intelligence (desire or prayer). For example let us consider an plant or tree having thorns on its stems or branches, these were created by this tree itself when it realized the danger of its extinction. There is this intelligence in this living-thing which creates these features. Similarly consider any insect, like the glow fly which generates florescent light sparks, or any plant producing certain colored flower to attract insects. Different types of snakes with levels of poisons, while some are completely non poisonous. As little bit of poison is recognized as medicine. According to Darwin’s theory all the living-things have certain degree of intelligence to create or manifest the necessary features of survival. This is not only limited to good or bad in natures dictionary. As nature just understands the creation using intelligence. Human-being (man) is one of the animals with higher intelligence to understand what is constructive or destructive to himself and to his surroundings. For example if we look at the previous old photographs of our ancestors we can certainly confirm saying that it was a snap of older times. Thus it certainly means that even humans are reforming and changing themselves compared to few years previous data. Thus the concept of god was created by humans to create constructive features using intelligence. But this concept of god is sometimes wrongly used by destructive people to create their own security, in order to survive. survival of the fittest. This theory also proves the concept of “Theory of attraction” that is, if anyone who strongly desires for security for a prolonged time period will also be able to accomplish those skills and features to create them in real life. That is, transforming intelligence into physical reality.

    Guardando indietro verso l’alba della civiltà: non siamo stati capace di sopravvivere da soli. Così siamo stati costretti a venire insieme. Abbiamo vissuto in un mondo simbolico nel classico (e olistico) senso della parola. Non perché era politicamente corretto, o perché era stato imposto dalla società o perché era un bene per la nostra salute – piuttosto perché non vi era un muro che separava la magia di ciò che chiamiamo ‘realtà’.

    Quindi, in fin dall’inizio, quando sentivamo il tuono – era Dio che parlava. Guardavamo la montagna – ed era Dio che viveva lì. Guardavamo il fuoco – e Dio era anche lì. Quindi, rispetto all’inizio, siamo stati quello che siamo ancora oggi -, ma che non riconosciamo più – eravamo UNO. Pieni di fantasia e creatività. Gli esseri umani erano come le cellule di uno stesso corpo, e queste cellule interagivano tra loro, nel bene e nel male. Ma poi abbiamo perso questa “unicità”, e la società divenne più schizofrenica.

    Eravamo individui, ma allo stesso tempo eravamo tutti della stessa tribù – società. Ci sono alcuni studi che dimostrano che all’inizio eravamo monoteisti perché non eravamo capace di mettere un Dio ovunque. Ma poi a poco a poco emerse politeismo. Abbiamo iniziato a dare nome a luoghi e a degli dei e dee che avevano dei compiti specifici.

    Nei nostri geni vi è scritto questo senso di unità che non implica sacrificare la nostra individualità. Abbiamo avuto questa connessione con la natura, perché non siamo riusciti a rimanere nello stesso posto per molto tempo. Abbiamo dovuto allungare e andare oltre i nostri limiti perché le nozioni di base – cibo, acqua, riparo- erano altrove, così ci siamo dovuti spostare. Questo significa che non eravamo attaccati a nessun luogo, e questo colpiva anche i nostri valori perché stavamo andando costantemente oltre la nostra zona di comfort – siamo stati costretti ad andare verso la seconda, terza, quarta, montagna, ecc – ma poi alla fine, tutto cambio. Passando da essere cacciatori ad essere abitanti – ci siamo seduti e abbiamo smesso di muoverci.

    È tempo di essere pronti a nuove avventure!

    Life is about change. Here’s to the “next mountain”.

  14. sami says:

    I think that moving around or abroad has a meening. It has to do with the need to undertand ourself comparing with others. We never ask ”what we should do for them” but we do ask ”how did they do it”. It means that we try to find out unexplained and the solutions which are benefiting us.

    Thanks a lot for posting this blog, it remembers me that we must leave our comfort zone and go out from time to time and talk to other people. That`s one way we can change ourselves for better.
