Dearly beloved readers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On this occasion, I am sending you an engraving that appears in the second volume of the book THESAURUS PHILO-POLITICUS<\/em>, written by the German poet Daniel Meisner and printed for the first time in 1623. It is entitled\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2026HUIUS SECULI STATUS<\/em><\/strong> \u2500\u2018The state of this age\u2019\u2500<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The Latin text tells us:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Qualis ab his stultis vectoribus ordo tenetur Cum curru, vulgo talis in orbe viget.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Translation<\/strong>: \u2018Just as the system maintained by these foolish drivers with the cart, so it happens normally in the world.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ZAHARA IN HISPAN<\/em><\/strong> refers to the village of Zahara, located in the province of Cadiz, Spain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is this telling us, dear friends?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This engraving refers us to what our Patriarch tells us about THE INTERMEDIATE MIND. When we are prisoners of the intermediate mind we only act in the form of contradictions, like the characters pulling the cart in opposite directions. For example, in our days, international organizations that supposedly speak of peace and apparently want peace, when it is time to do it they only act based on their own contradictions. In this way, the rational humanoid of our days supposedly seeks PEACE but sends armies precisely where wars exist, and they call them UN PEACEKEEPING FORCES<\/em> or other organizations apparently created to end wars. So we ask ourselves: How on earth are we going to end a war by sending more mercenaries or soldiers armed to the teeth there? That is a huge contradiction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We could observe the same thing in all parts of our world when the famous PANDEMIC was unleashed that killed hundreds of millions of people. On the one hand, they told us that it was necessary to GET VACCINATED urgently, and on the other hand, many other scientists knew that, precisely, what caused the PANDEMIC were the vaccines themselves; therein lies an enormous contradiction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have been told for decades about traveling to outer space to supposedly make contact with other humanities. But what are we going to offer these other humanities? Will we offer them our wars, our weapons, our false values, our political trickery, etc., etc., etc.? Wouldn\u2019t we want to impose our dreadful social order on them by force?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is impossible, patient reader, to achieve a common good when it is egotism that holds the reins; impossible! In the same way that the characters who pull the cart of our engraving each pull the cart for their own interests, it is never possible to create the common good as long as we carry the PSYCHOLOGICAL \u201cI\u201d WITHIN, determining our actions, our feelings and our thoughts. A true civilization is one that has its mind balanced, its feelings elevated and its actions channeled by good will; otherwise, it is impossible to create A NEW ORDER OF THINGS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why has it never been possible to eradicate HUNGER, MISERY, DISEASES from continents like AFRICA? It has been shown that the so-called \u201ccivilized\u201d countries have more than enough food and healthcare resources to help all those souls in need of permanent help, and yet we are always talking about ERADICATING POVERTY, DISEASE, WARS in those parts of our world… Why is this happening, dear readers? Answer: Because we are full of EGOTISMS…!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this way we come to the conclusion that THE COMMON GOOD cannot be achieved until we have eliminated the psychological factors that incite us to wars, to cruelty, to egotism, to the pure and hard-hearted evil that has accompanied us for centuries……<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I now add a few quotations for your reflection:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSocial egotism is a beginning of the grave.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> Victor Hugo<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEgotism has its heart in its head.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> Ovid<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThere is no man who does not put self-satisfaction before his obligations.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> Quevedo<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTo be good only for oneself is not to be good for anything.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> Voltaire<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe egoist loves himself without rivals.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> Cicero<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ESSE QUAM VIDERI.<\/em><\/strong> \u2500\u2018To be rather than seeming to be\u2019\u2500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
