The Evolution of Science and the Divinization of the Heart – 2

A Planet’s Evolution Is Proportional to the Evolution of Its Humanity

There are various patterns in the process by which a newborn planet evolves and manifests “the great ideal of the consciousness that created the universe” in its phenomenal world.

It is the same as a baby born with its first cry going on to walk a life different from anyone else’s over the following decades.

Yet both each planet and each human being can, when viewed statistically from above, be classified into a few kinds of patterns.

As for human beings, you can see for yourselves, so I will leave that out and look here at the patterns in which planets evolve.

In doing so, what we should first know is that a star’s evolution reflects the growth process of the humanity living on it.

To understand what this means, let us look here at the kind of organization called a “high school.”

There are all sorts of high schools across the country.

They are recognized by people in society with all sorts of labels attached.

“School A is a college-prep school.” “School B is a bunch of delinquents.” “Many students at that school are unpretentious kids.” “That school is third-rate….”

But if you look at each child, there are also many who don’t fit those labels.

Then why are they seen with particular labels?

Because when people look at an organizational unit, they look at the collective average.

The characteristics of a planet are likewise seen by the yardstick of the collective average.

The Harm of Scientific Power Not Based on Divinity

The evolution of planets can be seen as classified into several patterns, as follows.

• A pattern in which the evolution of science and technology goes ahead and the divinization of human consciousness follows behind
• A pattern in which the pursuit of deepening spirituality is so intense that material science and technology lag far behind
• A pattern in which both the scientific side and the spiritual side evolve in good balance
• A pattern in which neither the scientific side nor the spiritual side makes much progress on the path of evolution

Looking at this classification, you can see which pattern Earth is closest to.

Earth is “the pattern in which the evolution of science and technology goes ahead and the divinization of human consciousness lags behind.”

The scientific power of a star walking such an evolutionary path is a power based on self-centeredness, and could be called a double-edged sword.

As a recent example, you can see this from the fact that shortly after the coronavirus spread, a new vaccine was developed and distributed, and all sorts of debates arose over how it was carried out.

You can also see it in the current situation, in which various inventions and discoveries that defile the divine realm have been made, rules for them lag behind, and even when rules are drawn up, they are hard to keep.

We need to look again at the fact that if science alone runs ahead without being based on divinity, it can endanger civilization itself.

For example, China is currently asking Sri Lanka, which is struggling with debt problems, to export as many as one hundred thousand toque macaques, a monkey species native to Sri Lanka, and the Sri Lankan government has been considering responding to the request.

This is for use in experiments.

Amid a worldwide current of “let’s refrain from such things,” in some countries, gaining an advantage for their own nation through scientific progress tends to be given priority like this.

To guide this movement in the right direction, the speed of the evolution of human consciousness needs to surpass the progress of science and technology.

In order to turn around the current situation in which scientific power not based on divinity is bringing reactionary negatives.

An easy-to-understand example of the negatives brought about as a reaction is motive energy.

For example, the power that moves airplanes and ships, cars and motorcycles, electric trains and steam trains all generates heat and friction without exception, and spreads pollution when that energy is produced and used.

When those vehicles move at high speed, they also, without anyone realizing it, kill and injure not only nature but insects, birds, animals, fish, and so on.

To reduce pollution, electric cars are now all the rage, but generating electricity also comes with some kind of harm.

However, the real feelings of leaders in all fields are “we have no choice if we are to stick with economy-first thinking,” and the real feelings of many citizens of Earth are “I don’t have the courage to give up today’s convenient life,” so the reality of the Earth realm is that it is in a situation where it is hard to correct course.
