Before the zenith of human existence

Question from the Internet:

“Has humanity passed its zenith?”

Humanity has not reached its zenith. We haven’t even reached the level where we could call ourselves “human beings.

Until now, the whole of human development — with all of our social, cultural, moral, or technological inventions and breakthroughs — has been a blind and instinctive process. Everything we have ever done was driven and created by our inherently self-serving, self-justifying, subjective, and individualistic egos trying to fulfill and express themselves.

We have all been acting and behaving solely for our own sake while seemingly doing things for others. As a result, we have built the most selfish, narcissistic, hedonistic, and cruel human society which is ready to destroy itself, like addicts who can’t stop consuming even if their lives depended on it.

But this all had to unfold this way. We had to and we have to reach a point of self-recognition, where we all recognize and accept that the root cause of all problems that have ever affected humanity and still threaten us is the human ego that moves and drives all of us. Either as a result of increasing blows and intolerable suffering or as a result of a conscious and purposeful process, we have to come to such hate and rejection against our own egos that we become ready for the next phase of human development.

It is this next, conscious, and purposeful phase of development — above and against the recognized and arrested ego — that will guide us towards becoming “truly Human”, building a finely balanced and mutually integrated “nature-like” Human society.

It will be through this new Human society, through a mutually integrated and mutually complementing collective existence with the resulting collective consciousness that we will understand and fulfill what the “zenith” of being Human” means and how it works.
