Government on a Neighboring Planet

Paper 72
Government on a Neighboring Planet

(808.1) 72:0.1 BY PERMISSION of Lanaforge and with the approval of the Most Highs of Edentia, I am authorized to narrate something of the social, moral, and political life of the most advanced human race living on a not far-distant planet belonging to the Satania system.

(808.2) 72:0.2 Of all the Satania worlds which became isolated because of participation in the Lucifer rebellion, this planet has experienced a history most like that of Urantia. The similarity of the two spheres undoubtedly explains why permission to make this extraordinary presentation was granted, for it is most unusual for the system rulers to consent to the narration on one planet of the affairs of another.

(808.3) 72:0.3 This planet, like Urantia, was led astray by the disloyalty of its Planetary Prince in connection with the Lucifer rebellion. It received a Material Son shortly after Adam came to Urantia, and this Son also defaulted, leaving the sphere isolated, since a Magisterial Son has never been bestowed upon its mortal races.


1. The Continental Nation

(808.4) 72:1.1 Notwithstanding all these planetary handicaps a very superior civilization is evolving on an isolated continent about the size of Australia. This nation numbers about 140 million. Its people are a mixed race, predominantly blue and yellow, having a slightly greater proportion of violet than the so-called white race of Urantia. These different races are not yet fully blended, but they fraternize and socialize very acceptably. The average length of life on this continent is now ninety years, fifteen per cent higher than that of any other people on the planet.

(808.5) 72:1.2 The industrial mechanism of this nation enjoys a certain great advantage derived from the unique topography of the continent. The high mountains, on which heavy rains fall eight months in the year, are situated at the very center of the country. This natural arrangement favors the utilization of water power and greatly facilitates the irrigation of the more arid western quarter of the continent.

(808.6) 72:1.3 These people are self-sustaining, that is, they can live indefinitely without importing anything from the surrounding nations. Their natural resources are replete, and by scientific techniques they have learned how to compensate for their deficiencies in the essentials of life. They enjoy a brisk domestic commerce but have little foreign trade owing to the universal hostility of their less progressive neighbors.

(808.7) 72:1.4 This continental nation, in general, followed the evolutionary trend of the planet: The development from the tribal stage to the appearance of strong rulers and kings occupied thousands of years. The unconditional monarchs were succeeded by many different orders of government — abortive republics, communal states, and dictators came and went in endless profusion. This growth continued until about five hundred years ago when, during a politically fermenting period, one of the nation’s powerful dictator-triumvirs had a change of heart. He volunteered to abdicate upon condition that one of the other rulers, the baser of the remaining two, also vacate his dictatorship. Thus was the sovereignty of the continent placed in the hands of one ruler. The unified state progressed under strong monarchial rule for over one hundred years, during which there evolved a masterful charter of liberty.

(809.1) 72:1.5 The subsequent transition from monarchy to a representative form of government was gradual, the kings remaining as mere social or sentimental figureheads, finally disappearing when the male line of descent ran out. The present republic has now been in existence just two hundred years, during which time there has been a continuous progression toward the governmental techniques about to be narrated, the last developments in industrial and political realms having been made within the past decade.

When Jesus began his work, he organized his work with the twelve apostles, now you understand a little about why;

The Urantia Book

Paper 38

6. Seraphic Organization

(421.4) 38:6.1 After the second millennium of sojourn at seraphic headquarters the seraphim are organized under chiefs into groups of twelve (12 pairs, 24 seraphim), and twelve such groups constitute a company (144 pairs, 288 seraphim), which is commanded by a leader. Twelve companies under a commander constitute a battalion (1,728 pairs or 3,456 seraphim), and twelve battalions under a director equal a seraphic unit (20,736 pairs or 41,472 individuals), while twelve units, subject to the command of a supervisor, constitute a legion numbering 248,832 pairs or 497,664 individuals. Jesus alluded to such a group of angels that night in the garden of Gethsemane when he said: “I can even now ask my Father, and he will presently give me more than twelve legions of angels.”

(421.5) 38:6.2 Twelve legions of angels comprise a host numbering 2,985,984 pairs or 5,971,968 individuals, and twelve such hosts (35,831,808 pairs or 71,663,616 individuals) make up the largest operating organization of seraphim, an angelic army. A seraphic host is commanded by an archangel or by some other personality of co-ordinate status, while the angelic armies are directed by the Brilliant Evening Stars or by other immediate lieutenants of Gabriel. And Gabriel is the “supreme commander of the armies of heaven,” the chief executive of the Sovereign of Nebadon, “the Lord God of hosts.”

(421.6) 38:6.3 Though serving under the direct supervision of the Infinite Spirit as personalized on Salvington, since the bestowal of Michael on Urantia, seraphim and all other local universe orders have become subject to the sovereignty of the Master Son. Even when Michael was born of the flesh on Urantia, there issued the superuniverse broadcast to all Nebadon which proclaimed, “And let all the angels worship him.” All ranks of angels are subject to his sovereignty; they are a part of that group which has been denominated “his mighty angels.”

Porque não há religiões em Arda?

Por que não há religiões em Arda ?

 Escrito por Ivan Martins

26 Outubro 2009

Os fãs de Tolkien, com a característica curiosidade extensiva a todos os cantos da obra, não deixam de reparar, após apenas alguma diminuição na paixão que a obra desperta de imediato, a (aparentemente) estranha ausência de religiões nos seus livros.

Ou, pelo menos, assim ocorre com os que não chegaram às obras atrás de, somente, sons e luzes. A estranheza somente aumenta quanto mais se lê, e não falo somente de quantos mais textos ou livros são lidos, mas especialmente de quanto melhor se lê. Pois é evidente, após pouca atenção dispensada, a presença profunda, essencial e generalizada de mística e religiosidade por toda a obra. Seja no mundo criado, em suas causas profundas, sentidos básicos e história, quanto no texto, nos motivos fundamentais que se seguem. Por isso a pergunta se torna de maior importância. Por que foi tão importante, para Tolkien, excluir de sua obra religiões organizadas?

Ou melhor, por que excluir formalmente, diretamente, a religião (e não se enganem, esta é a católica) que pode ser tão claramente sentida? Há uma resposta simples, eficiente e correta para isto, e não há motivos para duvidar dela. Tolkien criticava, na fantasia medieval, a presença aberta do cristianismo. Para ele parecia um erro mortal. As razões para tal não são difíceis de imaginar. Possivelmente, ele acreditava que a presença de Verdades Reveladas amarrava a subcriação dos autores, cuja percepção intuitiva, adivinhada e complementada da Verdade era (e é) a essência básica da fantasia. Uma história verdadeira limitaria a criação de uma história alternativa. E é fácil entender que Tolkien não tivesse nenhuma intenção de, ao excluir a religião Verdadeira (de acordo com sua fé) incluir ou criar qualquer outra.

Entretanto, a religião Verdadeira está realmente fora do mundo secundário de Tolkien? A leitura de alguns dos mais famosos e melhores textos de Tolkien não permite essa conclusão. Se o cristianismo não está incluso nos escritos de Tolkien, ele está inscrito em seu mundo. Não no período que Tolkien descreve, mas no seguinte. Tolkien descreve sua obra como período histórico imaginário, como passado criado deste mesmo mundo, e deste mesmo presente. Presente esse que inclui necessariamente a vinda, há dois mil anos, de Cristo. Escrevendo sobre um período passado há mais ou menos, em suas próprias palavras, seis ou oito mil anos antes de agora, ele pôde incluir Cristo sem ter que escrever sobre ele. Liberando sua criação de amarras, mas a mantendo no mesmo sistema de suas crenças sinceras: a própria formalização de sua tese sobre a sub-criação mitológica. Qualquer dúvida quanto à presença futura de Cristo no mundo secundário de Tolkien não resiste à leitura do Athrabeth Finrod ah Andreth, presente no History of Middle-earth X, Morgoth’s Ring.


Mas tais explicações não são o objetivo deste texto. Estas conclusões são bastante claras e eu não as formulei, somente extraí de alguns dos mais conhecidos textos de Tolkien, mais em sentido de introdução que de revelação. Tampouco pretendo a partir de agora elaborar uma tese inovadora. Minha intenção é, a partir de uma frase, contida em uma das cartas direcionadas aos fãs, demonstrar como, interna e externamente ao mundo sub-criado, a religião organizada não é fundamental, mas sim produto histórico (embora não social), e está ligada aos mais profundos motivos do Legendário. Como pôde, portanto, o mundo secundário funcionar como sistema, auto-sustentado, e progressão de acontecimentos, e mais, como sistema em movimento, embora este seja melhor considerado do ponto de vista artístico que, digamos, sociológico.

Tolkien afirma que os hobbits tem algo como uma religião natural. Uma certa percepção intuitiva, não revelada ou deduzida pela razão, do que é certo, ou de como o mundo é de fato. Não é segredo pra ninguém que Tolkien tinha um grande conhecimento de escolástica (medieval, pelo menos, talvez moderna também). O tomismo (nota #1) divide a Verdade universal em Divina, Eterna e Natural, sendo estas duas últimas mundanas, e, portanto poderiam ser percebidas ou deduzidas sem o conhecimento da Palavra. E de certa forma mesmo o Divino poderia ser algo sentido, embora não descoberto. Dessa forma, há um relato de um missionário espanhol entre os índios no século XVI que afirma que os índios eram tão inocentes e sinceros em suas práticas idólatras que deveria ser visto ali uma genuína fé mal direcionada. Acredito que Tolkien segue esta forma de pensamento. Os hobbits percebiam de forma fraturada Eru, mas na essência era puro. Pelo Mythopoeia (nota #2) se depreende que essa era a concepção de Tolkien a respeito da religião humana também, adaptada e decorada com a ação criativa humana.

Creio que isso explica como a religião é em geral tratada por toda a obra. Sendo o Divino e o Natural perceptível, era possível para os povos de Arda viverem de forma correta por sua intuição, não precisando de Revelações. Aliás, isso é corroborado pelo Conto de Adanel, onde o Divino é diretamente alcançado no interior do ser enquanto os homens eram impolutos, mas esse Divino não instrui amplamente os humanos, sendo mais uma supraconsciência que uma fonte de conhecimento. Esse se cala à medida que os homens se afastam da vida correta. Não acredito que os elfos tenham tido algo tão direto, acreditando que a tal Voz não seja uma metáfora, mas talvez nunca tenha precisado. Além de mais fortemente conscientes da própria espiritualidade, os elfos estiveram durante a maior parte do tempo sob a tutela direta ou indireta dos Valar. Considerando as coincidências entre os Ainur e os elfos (mesmo ritmo temporal, maior afinidade dos Valar com os elfos, etc.) eu imagino que Eru tenha criado os elfos com isso em mente. A regência dos Valar era tanto espiritual quanto natural, e eles serviram como instrutores dos elfos em questões divinas. Talvez os humanos, com sua vida natural rápida, não precisassem de certeza sobre estas questões, antes do seu destino final. Talvez pudessem somente se valer da sua intuição e da Voz.


Imagino que seja por isso que não exista religião ordenada, que apresente uma cosmogonia e sistema universal ou código de conduta definido, ou culto no qual se demonstrasse um respeito ou temor ritualizado. Se os fundamentos da universo fossem perceptíveis por si e a conduta ideal alcançada sem direcionamento, ou seja, se a Existência fosse respeitada e seguida na essência, não havia a necessidade de uma instrução Revelada. Essa só se configura para os humanos, e através da Queda. A partir daí a Cura dos homens só pode se dar pela redenção dele mesmo, ao mesmo tempo em que pela intervenção de Deus. Além da questão puramente mística da Dupla Natureza de Cristo, também a Palavra é revelada algumas vezes, compondo o que seriam os Evangelhos, e criado um culto baseado na verdade, subvertendo e reparando os danos do culto primordial a Morgoth. Uma Igreja nas mesmas bases formais da morgothiana, mas inversa no sentido, santificada, libertando os homens do peso da mácula original. Eu imagino que esta seja a razão da existência de uma Igreja hoje (o hoje mítico, óbvio). A pergunta inicial estaria invertida, se for assim. Por que existem religiões? Acredito que o Fim do Drama seria a resposta. Imagino mesmo que a Cura completa só se daria pela inversão total da Queda no Fim, a conversão de todos os homens (ou então só haveria Cura e vida eterna para os santos).

Dessa forma Tolkien funde, de forma bela e auto-explicativa, teologia, com suas bases estáticas, com história a nível humano, pequenas vidas vividas dentro de um mundo dado, e mitologia, com a progressão de um Drama que se compõe estágio a estágio, em direção ao fim que unifica e justifica o todo. Argumento, principalmente, dentro da Obra escrita por duas razões básicas. Por considerar que descobrir a razão em Tolkien externo é procurar agulha em palheiro. Segundo, porque acho que Tolkien não só refletiu suas preocupações e exerceu uma subcriação em sentido estrito, mas também porque nela estas se apresentam de forma fechada e coerente, com um sentido. Não necessariamente na criação em si é desta forma.

Notas Explicativas

1.O tomismo é a doutrina ou filosofia escolástica de São Tomás de Aquino (1225-1274), adotada oficialmente pela Igreja Católica, e que se caracteriza, sobretudo pela tentativa de conciliar o aristotelismo com o cristianismo. Procurando assim integrar o pensamento aristotélico e neoplatônico, aos textos das Sagradas Escrituras, gerando uma filosofia do Ser, inspirada na fé, com a teologia científica.


2.Mythopoeia é um poema que, apesar de pouco conhecido entre os fãs de Tolkien, é um dos mais importantes para entender o que ele pensava ser a função e o propósito de seu próprio trabalho. Esse é o texto no qual Tolkien deixa claro o seu projeto de uma nova literatura fantástica e, mais que isso, sua visão mística da criação literária como sub-criação, ou seja, como a contribuição humana à Criação divina.

The Story of One Hundred Extraterrestrials

The Urantia Book

Paper 66

4. Early Days of the One Hundred


(743.10) 66:4.1 The arrival of the Prince’s staff created a profound impression. While it required almost a thousand years for the news to spread abroad, those tribes near the Mesopotamian headquarters were tremendously influenced by the teachings and conduct of the one hundred new sojourners on Urantia. And much of your subsequent mythology grew out of the garbled legends of these early days when these members of the Prince’s staff were repersonalized on Urantia as supermen.


(744.1) 66:4.2 The serious obstacle to the good influence of such extraplanetary teachers is the tendency of mortals to regard them as gods, but aside from the technique of their appearance on earth the Caligastia one hundred — fifty men and fifty women — did not resort to supernatural methods nor superhuman manipulations.


(744.2) 66:4.3 But the corporeal staff were nonetheless superhuman. They began their mission on Urantia as extraordinary threefold beings:


(744.3) 66:4.4 1. They were corporeal and relatively human, for they embodied the actual life plasm of one of the human races, the Andonic life plasm of Urantia.


(744.4) 66:4.5 These one hundred members of the Prince’s staff were divided equally as to sex and in accordance with their previous mortal status. Each person of this group was capable of becoming coparental to some new order of physical being, but they had been carefully instructed to resort to parenthood only under certain conditions. It is customary for the corporeal staff of a Planetary Prince to procreate their successors sometime prior to retiring from special planetary service. Usually this is at, or shortly after, the time of the arrival of the Planetary Adam and Eve.


(744.5) 66:4.6 These special beings therefore had little or no idea as to what type of material creature would be produced by their sexual union. And they never did know; before the time for such a step in the prosecution of their world work the entire regime was upset by rebellion, and those who later functioned in the parental role had been isolated from the life currents of the system.


(744.6) 66:4.7 In skin color and language these materialized members of Caligastia’s staff followed the Andonic race. They partook of food as did the mortals of the realm with this difference: The re-created bodies of this group were fully satisfied by a nonflesh diet. This was one of the considerations which determined their residence in a warm region abounding in fruits and nuts. The practice of subsisting on a nonflesh diet dates from the times of the Caligastia one hundred, for this custom spread near and far to affect the eating habits of many surrounding tribes, groups of origin in the once exclusively meat-eating evolutionary races.


(744.7) 66:4.8 2. The one hundred were material but superhuman beings, having been reconstituted on Urantia as unique men and women of a high and special order.


(744.8) 66:4.9 This group, while enjoying provisional citizenship on Jerusem, were as yet unfused with their Thought Adjusters; and when they volunteered and were accepted for planetary service in liaison with the descending orders of sonship, their Adjusters were detached. But these Jerusemites were superhuman beings — they possessed souls of ascendant growth. During the mortal life in the flesh the soul is of embryonic estate; it is born (resurrected) in the morontia life and experiences growth through the successive morontia worlds. And the souls of the Caligastia one hundred had thus expanded through the progressive experiences of the seven mansion worlds to citizenship status on Jerusem.


(744.9) 66:4.10 In conformity to their instructions the staff did not engage in sexual reproduction, but they did painstakingly study their personal constitutions, and they carefully explored every imaginable phase of intellectual (mind) and morontia (soul) liaison. And it was during the thirty-third year of their sojourn in Dalamatia, long before the wall was completed, that number two and number seven of the Danite group accidentally discovered a phenomenon attendant upon the liaison of their morontia selves (supposedly nonsexual and nonmaterial); and the result of this adventure proved to be the first of the primary midway creatures. This new being was wholly visible to the planetary staff and to their celestial associates but was not visible to the men and women of the various human tribes. Upon authority of the Planetary Prince the entire corporeal staff undertook the production of similar beings, and all were successful, following the instructions of the pioneer Danite pair. Thus did the Prince’s staff eventually bring into being the original corps of 50,000 primary midwayers.


(745.1) 66:4.11 These mid-type creatures were of great service in carrying on the affairs of the world’s headquarters. They were invisible to human beings, but the primitive sojourners at Dalamatia were taught about these unseen semispirits, and for ages they constituted the sum total of the spirit world to these evolving mortals.


(745.2) 66:4.12 3. The Caligastia one hundred were personally immortal, or undying. There circulated through their material forms the antidotal complements of the life currents of the system; and had they not lost contact with the life circuits through rebellion, they would have lived on indefinitely until the arrival of a subsequent Son of God, or until their sometime later release to resume the interrupted journey to Havona and Paradise.


(745.3) 66:4.13 These antidotal complements of the Satania life currents were derived from the fruit of the tree of life, a shrub of Edentia which was sent to Urantia by the Most Highs of Norlatiadek at the time of Caligastia’s arrival. In the days of Dalamatia this tree grew in the central courtyard of the temple of the unseen Father, and it was the fruit of the tree of life that enabled the material and otherwise mortal beings of the Prince’s staff to live on indefinitely as long as they had access to it.


(745.4) 66:4.14 While of no value to the evolutionary races, this supersustenance was quite sufficient to confer continuous life upon the Caligastia one hundred and also upon the one hundred modified Andonites who were associated with them.


(745.5) 66:4.15 It should be explained in this connection that, at the time the one hundred Andonites contributed their human germ plasm to the members of the Prince’s staff, the Life Carriers introduced into their mortal bodies the complement of the system circuits; and thus were they enabled to live on concurrently with the staff, century after century, in defiance of physical death.


(745.6) 66:4.16 Eventually the one hundred Andonites were made aware of their contribution to the new forms of their superiors, and these same one hundred children of the Andon tribes were kept at headquarters as the personal attendants of the Prince’s corporeal staff.

5. Organization of the One Hundred


(745.7) 66:5.1 The one hundred were organized for service in ten autonomous councils of ten members each. When two or more of these ten councils met in joint session, such liaison gatherings were presided over by Daligastia. These ten groups were constituted as follows:


(745.8) 66:5.2 1. The council on food and material welfare. This group was presided over by Ang. Food, water, clothes, and the material advancement of the human species were fostered by this able corps. They taught well digging, spring control, and irrigation. They taught those from the higher altitudes and from the north improved methods of treating skins for use as clothing, and weaving was later introduced by the teachers of art and science.


(746.1) 66:5.3 Great advances were made in methods of food storage. Food was preserved by cooking, drying, and smoking; it thus became the earliest property. Man was taught to provide for the hazards of famine, which periodically decimated the world.


(746.2) 66:5.4 2. The board of animal domestication and utilization. This council was dedicated to the task of selecting and breeding those animals best adapted to help human beings in bearing burdens and transporting themselves, to supply food, and later on to be of service in the cultivation of the soil. This able corps was directed by Bon.


(746.3) 66:5.5 Several types of useful animals, now extinct, were tamed, together with some that have continued as domesticated animals to the present day. Man had long lived with the dog, and the blue man had already been successful in taming the elephant. The cow was so improved by careful breeding as to become a valuable source of food; butter and cheese became common articles of human diet. Men were taught to use oxen for burden bearing, but the horse was not domesticated until a later date. The members of this corps first taught men to use the wheel for the facilitation of traction.


(746.4) 66:5.6 It was in these days that carrier pigeons were first used, being taken on long journeys for the purpose of sending messages or calls for help. Bon’s group were successful in training the great fandors as passenger birds, but they became extinct more than thirty thousand years ago.


(746.5) 66:5.7 3. The advisers regarding the conquest of predatory animals. It was not enough that early man should try to domesticate certain animals, but he must also learn how to protect himself from destruction by the remainder of the hostile animal world. This group was captained by Dan.


(746.6) 66:5.8 The purpose of an ancient city wall was to protect against ferocious beasts as well as to prevent surprise attacks by hostile humans. Those living without the walls and in the forest were dependent on tree dwellings, stone huts, and the maintenance of night fires. It was therefore very natural that these teachers should devote much time to instructing their pupils in the improvement of human dwellings. By employing improved techniques and by the use of traps, great progress was made in animal subjugation.


(746.7) 66:5.9 4. The faculty on dissemination and conservation of knowledge. This group organized and directed the purely educational endeavors of those early ages. It was presided over by Fad. The educational methods of Fad consisted in supervision of employment accompanied by instruction in improved methods of labor. Fad formulated the first alphabet and introduced a writing system. This alphabet contained twenty-five characters. For writing material these early peoples utilized tree barks, clay tablets, stone slabs, a form of parchment made of hammered hides, and a crude form of paperlike material made from wasps’ nests. The Dalamatia library, destroyed soon after the Caligastia disaffection, comprised more than two million separate records and was known as the “house of Fad.”


(746.8) 66:5.10 The blue man was partial to alphabet writing and made the greatest progress along such lines. The red man preferred pictorial writing, while the yellow races drifted into the use of symbols for words and ideas, much like those they now employ. But the alphabet and much more was subsequently lost to the world during the confusion attendant upon rebellion. The Caligastia defection destroyed the hope of the world for a universal language, at least for untold ages.


(747.1) 66:5.11 5. The commission on industry and trade. This council was employed in fostering industry within the tribes and in promoting trade between the various peace groups. Its leader was Nod. Every form of primitive manufacture was encouraged by this corps. They contributed directly to the elevation of standards of living by providing many new commodities to attract the fancy of primitive men. They greatly expanded the trade in the improved salt produced by the council on science and art.


(747.2) 66:5.12 It was among these enlightened groups educated in the Dalamatia schools that the first commercial credit was practiced. From a central exchange of credits they secured tokens which were accepted in lieu of the actual objects of barter. The world did not improve upon these business methods for hundreds of thousands of years.


(747.3) 66:5.13 6. The college of revealed religion. This body was slow in functioning. Urantia civilization was literally forged out between the anvil of necessity and the hammers of fear. But this group had made considerable progress in their attempt to substitute Creator fear for creature fear (ghost worship) before their labors were interrupted by the later confusion attendant upon the secession upheaval. The head of this council was Hap.


(747.4) 66:5.14 None of the Prince’s staff would present revelation to complicate evolution; they presented revelation only as the climax of their exhaustion of the forces of evolution. But Hap did yield to the desire of the inhabitants of the city for the establishment of a form of religious service. His group provided the Dalamatians with the seven chants of worship and also gave them the daily praise-phrase and eventually taught them “the Father’s prayer,” which was:


(747.5) 66:5.15 “Father of all, whose Son we honor, look down upon us with favor. Deliver us from the fear of all save you. Make us a pleasure to our divine teachers and forever put truth on our lips. Deliver us from violence and anger; give us respect for our elders and that which belongs to our neighbors. Give us this season green pastures and fruitful flocks to gladden our hearts. We pray for the hastening of the coming of the promised uplifter, and we would do your will on this world as others do on worlds beyond.”


(747.6) 66:5.16 Although the Prince’s staff were limited to natural means and ordinary methods of race improvement, they held out the promise of the Adamic gift of a new race as the goal of subsequent evolutionary growth upon the attainment of the height of biologic development.


(747.7) 66:5.17 7. The guardians of health and life. This council was concerned with the introduction of sanitation and the promotion of primitive hygiene and was led by Lut.


(747.8) 66:5.18 Its members taught much that was lost during the confusion of subsequent ages, never to be rediscovered until the twentieth century. They taught mankind that cooking, boiling and roasting, was a means of avoiding sickness; also that such cooking greatly reduced infant mortality and facilitated early weaning.


(747.9) 66:5.19 Many of the early teachings of Lut’s guardians of health persisted among the tribes of earth on down to the days of Moses, even though they became much garbled and were greatly changed.


(748.1) 66:5.20 The great obstacle in the way of promoting hygiene among these ignorant peoples consisted in the fact that the real causes of many diseases were too small to be seen by the naked eye, and also because they all held fire in superstitious regard. It required thousands of years to persuade them to burn refuse. In the meantime they were urged to bury their decaying rubbish. The great sanitary advance of this epoch came from the dissemination of knowledge regarding the health-giving and disease-destroying properties of sunlight.


(748.2) 66:5.21 Before the Prince’s arrival, bathing had been an exclusively religious ceremonial. It was indeed difficult to persuade primitive men to wash their bodies as a health practice. Lut finally induced the religious teachers to include cleansing with water as a part of the purification ceremonies to be practiced in connection with the noontime devotions, once a week, in the worship of the Father of all.


(748.3) 66:5.22 These guardians of health also sought to introduce handshaking in substitution for saliva exchange or blood drinking as a seal of personal friendship and as a token of group loyalty. But when out from under the compelling pressure of the teachings of their superior leaders, these primitive peoples were not slow in reverting to their former health-destroying and disease-breeding practices of ignorance and superstition.


(748.4) 66:5.23 8. The planetary council on art and science. This corps did much to improve the industrial technique of early man and to elevate his concepts of beauty. Their leader was Mek.


(748.5) 66:5.24 Art and science were at a low ebb throughout the world, but the rudiments of physics and chemistry were taught the Dalamatians. Pottery was advanced, decorative arts were all improved, and the ideals of human beauty were greatly enhanced. But music made little progress until after the arrival of the violet race.


(748.6) 66:5.25 These primitive men would not consent to experiment with steam power, notwithstanding the repeated urgings of their teachers; never could they overcome their great fear of the explosive power of confined steam. They were, however, finally persuaded to work with metals and fire, although a piece of red-hot metal was a terrorizing object to early man.


(748.7) 66:5.26 Mek did a great deal to advance the culture of the Andonites and to improve the art of the blue man. A blend of the blue man with the Andon stock produced an artistically gifted type, and many of them became master sculptors. They did not work in stone or marble, but their works of clay, hardened by baking, adorned the gardens of Dalamatia.


(748.8) 66:5.27 Great progress was made in the home arts, most of which were lost in the long and dark ages of rebellion, never to be rediscovered until modern times.


(748.9) 66:5.28 9. The governors of advanced tribal relations. This was the group intrusted with the work of bringing human society up to the level of statehood. Their chief was Tut.


(748.10) 66:5.29 These leaders contributed much to bringing about intertribal marriages. They fostered courtship and marriage after due deliberation and full opportunity to become acquainted. The purely military war dances were refined and made to serve valuable social ends. Many competitive games were introduced, but these ancient folk were a serious people; little humor graced these early tribes. Few of these practices survived the subsequent disintegration of planetary insurrection.


(749.1) 66:5.30 Tut and his associates labored to promote group associations of a peaceful nature, to regulate and humanize warfare, to co-ordinate intertribal relations, and to improve tribal governments. In the vicinity of Dalamatia there developed a more advanced culture, and these improved social relations were very helpful in influencing more remote tribes. But the pattern of civilization prevailing at the Prince’s headquarters was quite different from the barbaric society evolving elsewhere, just as the twentieth-century society of Capetown, South Africa, is totally unlike the crude culture of the diminutive Bushmen to the north.


(749.2) 66:5.31 10. The supreme court of tribal co-ordination and racial co-operation. This supreme council was directed by Van and was the court of appeals for all of the other nine special commissions charged with the supervision of human affairs. This council was one of wide function, being intrusted with all matters of earthly concern which were not specifically assigned to the other groups. This selected corps had been approved by the Constellation Fathers of Edentia before they were authorized to assume the functions of the supreme court of Urantia.

Polônia: concluída construção de maior estátua de Cristo do mundo

A estátua que mede um total de 36 metros, frente os 33 metros do Cristo carioca, e foi instalada sobre uma colina com 16 metros



SWIEBODZIN, Polónia, 6 Nov 2010 (AFP) -A construção da mais alta estátua de Cristo do mundo, maior inclusive que a do Cristo Redentor, no Rio de Janeiro, terminou este sábado à tarde em Swiebodzin (oeste da Polônia), comprovou um jornalista da AFP no local.

A estátua mede um total de 36 metros, contra 33 do Cristo carioca, e foi instalada sobre uma colina com 16 metros de altura.

Tal como o Cristo Redentor, a estátua de Swiebodzin, cidade de 40.000 habitantes, é completamente branca, tendo como única diferença uma coroa dourada de três metros de altura.

Os últimos elementos da estátua - a cabeça e os braços - foram instalados com a ajuda de um enorme guindaste enviado especialmente ao local, já que a primeira tentativa, na semana passada, fracassou porque o guindaste levado não tinha a força necessária para a tarefa. Calcula-se o peso total da construção em 440 toneladas.

"É a obra da minha vida (...) Será o maior catequista. A Europa precisa de catequistas como Cristo", disse à AFP Sylwester Zawadzki, padre da paróquia da Misericórdia Divina de Swiebodzin, que lançou este projeto há cinco anos.

A estátua foi construída com donativos particulares arrecadados na Polônia e no exterior, disse o sacerdote.

Memorias

Existe a memoria genetica ou se preferir memoria dos ancestrais, de origem evolucionaria animal.

E existe a memoria da eternidade, estudar a vida de Jesus Cristo pode ajudar a lembra-la, pois Quem Viu o Filho, Viu o Pai (no caso O Filho Eterno)
