Revealing the unknown man through the known PART 2
By Prof. Protus Nathan Uzorma
No matter the questions raised by science and metaphysical inquiries into the future and even the past, man has continued to nourish his creeds with almost artificiality. This has never made man higher or less in the spectrum of cosmic consciousness. He has continued to struggle for spiritual survival and everything in the universe has continued to ask man thus, “What type of creature are you”? In response, man has continued to answer this question with almost sense of thoughtlessness approach relying on various Messiahs. He has forgotten that in the beginning (that never began) was science and the inner messiahs were responsible for the upbringing of confusion that will continue to hunt and hurt mankind in his voyage of spiritual journey.
Tracing man’s position in the entire spectrum of cosmic life is like knowing that he is not. Nobody, yes, I mean no one has ever known why his past is within the framework of the moment-would ever appreciate the time. Man is missing in the message of forever following his attachment to vanity and error. Rediscovering his space in divine programming is a task that awaits the messiahs. He has destroyed himself with his credo and has praised himself in folly and error. How foolish is man’s material attainment! He needs his God and he seeks him from afar while He is dwelling within him whispering senses to his consciousness but the dream of ego and the praise of illusion are great inhibitions.
Man has continued to praise his noble and ignoble works in the field of science, he has advanced beyond recognition, to the extent that the spiritual language of the Elohim can be re-echoed in science thus, “Come let us make man (robots or Artificial Intelligent-AI ) in our image, after our likeness”. The obedience of other scientist to this all imperative call, consummated in the scientific contribution of making robots without the function of “IT” (Life) in it. Yes, man has advanced.
As a matter of fact, whatever man claims to have attained which is not geared towards spiritualizing his environment is totally based on error and mental illusion. The true advancement therefore is the one made to bring man in union with the ultimate cause- the creator. This may not be taken very seriously because of the artificiality attached in the consciousness of Artificial Intelligent (AI). Man therefore considers himself to be God by vilifying the divine. Yes, he considers himself higher than his creator because he has the ability to create what the creator has created and recreated. This sense of foolishness occasioned by his ignoble attitude in science has made him to betray the divine consciousness in him.
A wise states man, whose name I cannot recall, once said’ “If we but knew what troubles our world we might perhaps, fix it. The quandary is that we do not know” That is true! We do not know”. We are still too near our primitive days to know. We are not sufficiently unfolded as spiritual being to recognize the fact that the cause of our world trouble lies in that one naked fact that we are still too near primacy to know how to build an enduring spiritual foundation.
The true knowledge of spirituality will transform the world in this eleventh hour of its danger, I do hope that the ego in religiosity will consequently allow us to open up our collective consciousness to accept this inter-planetary transformation because our spiritual consciousness have fallen further in fifty years than it had gained in eight centuries.
Man is a great spirit in the universe. The unseen man is perfect, spiritual and infinite. Death, sickness, and sin have no part in him. The real man cannot depart from holiness, nor can God by whom man is evolved, engender the capacity or freedom to sin. A mortal sinner is not God’s man for mortals are the counterfeit of immortals. They are the children of wicked one or the one evil which declares that man begins in dust or as a material embryo. Identity is the reflection of spirit, the reflection in multifarious forms of the living principle love. The inferior rank heroes have taught man otherwise! Therefore learn this, O mortal man, which is opposite of all material selfhood. Remember that the scriptures say of, mortal man, “As for man, his days are as grass, as a flower of the field, so he flourishes. For the wind passes over it, and it grows, and the place therefore shall know it no more”
When speaking of God’s children not the children of men, Jesus said, “The kingdom of God is within you”, that man in God’s image is immutable and eternal. Whatever is material is mortal. It is profoundly imperative for man to arise and take up his image which he has abandoned for years, and live for what he is made and not the other way round.
Plato’s view of man suits my philosophical cum spiritual approach. He is of the view that man is a spiritual being though he played down on his gross element( body), while Aristotle regarded man as the supreme being on earth, primarily spirit and capable of intellectual knowledge. Aristotle however continued his cosmological view of man’s spiritual nature as transcending material conditions. To Diogenes of Appolomia man is a being privileged by the Gods both in bodily equipment and in mental capacity. All these point to the fact that man is a spirit being who can awaken the seven charkas within him to better his world. The seven charkas in human beings are related to the seven physical senses which are in tune with the seven heavens.
If everything is based on science I mean empirical sciences, we will make the worst mistake. In the natural science, man has never beheld any spirit or soul living a body or entering it. Error says you are a man, but truth and ultimate knowledge says you are a spirit. Matter is neither self-existent nor a product of spirit. In the vast forever in the science and truth of being, the only facts are spirit of God is, there is liberty. Like the arch priest of our modern religions, man is free to enter into the holiest, THE REALM OF God. Through spiritual sense only, man comprehends and loves Deity. The various contradictions of the science of spirituality by the material senses do not change the unseen truth, which is intact forever.
Today what is happening to humanity at the present time is that he has chosen to distort his balanced circular orbit around his creator, His free will, supported by his ignorance of his unavoidable close relationship to God, and his awareness of his dependence on God, has influenced him to choose transient body sensations, body comforts and body values instead of eternal spiritual values. The universe is founded upon love as related to human survival. Our present civilization is hurting itself by building its own agonies and ills. It has become physically scientific instead of spiritually scientific. It has no living philosophy to overcome the philosophy of death which is threatening the entire world.
In the midst of all these uncanny development came the claim of a nation as the only chosen people of God. This is not only defaming but a negation of the organizational structure of divinity. No one nation or tribe owns God unless god! Israel is not an exemption, so also is spirituality. We must strive to be spiritual; it is a must to all children of Adam.
