FROM GONDISHAPUR TO SILICON VALLEY VOL 3 - PAUL EMBERSON

Dettagli

BACK COVER

Rudolf Steiner said "But evil will thus engulf the Earth directly from the force of electricity itself" - this is exactly what is about to happen today, with electricity grids and its artificial intelligence: the Internet. Resistance to evil also means resisting this diffusion of electromagnetism. The electric fields we currently live in are a million billion times more powerful than natural electric fields. Every human being is called today to face evil in the technological sector, to recognize it in its true nature and to resist it. In this resistance that rises from the depths of his spiritual being, the forces of good will grow within him. It is the fundamental experience of our era, which every person who wants to follow the path that leads to Christ must have. Confronting Ahriman-Sorat in the sphere of technology is particularly linked to the mission of the Anglo-Saxon people. More than any other, this people is called to fight alongside the Archangel Michael in the spiritual battle that rages today and which will determine the future of humanity.

Three great objectives take shape before humanity today, three intentions that must be achieved so that human beings can complete their evolution on Earth. The first is what we are about to describe: the development of the forces of good to resist evil, and the encounter with Christ. This goal must be achieved during this fifth post-Atlantean era. The second intent is the greater: to create a technique that employs the forces of morality, and to insufflate these same forces into human society. All external life will be ennobled. This technique must be brought to perfection during the fifth, sixth and seventh ages. The third goal is the harmonious fusion of the human being with his own creations, and the transformation of the Earth into a "Cosmos of Love". This very high goal is to be achieved before the end of earthly evolution.
