Humanity’s evolutionary purpose

Question from the Internet:

“You write a lot about a predetermined, evolutionary purpose for human beings. In simple terms, what is this that nature’s system and its evolution expects us to aspire for and achieve?”

In a single sentence, nature’s system and evolution expects us to become the natural system’s only fully conscious and partnering element. We could say, that we are expected to become the fully conscious mind and consciousness of the otherwise “blind and instinctive system”.

In order to become this fully conscious and partnering element, we have to go through a very special, “truly Human” development we haven’t started yet. Until now, human history and evolution has been a similarly blind and instinctive affair. We simply lived automatically driven by our “unnatural”, inherently egotistic, subjective and individualistic original software that evoltion installed in us.

As long as we follow our inherent software, we remain incompatible with nature’s finely balanced, mutually integrated and interdependent system. We excessively accumulate and overconsume everything and we ruthlessly compete and succeed and each other’s and nature’s expense like cancer.

But evolution also gave us a unique human mind, that is capable of critical self-assessment and initiating a conscious and purposeful self-development. We haven’t used this unique Human mind yet, but in our generation, for many different reasons, more and more people awaken with the question about our Human purpose in life, questioning why we exist and why we are called Human beings above other animals.

This conscious awakening, guided by the necessary, purposeful and practical method can help us start the ablove mentioned conscious development, through which we will achieve similarity an seamless integration with nature’s system.

And since we will achieve this above and against our inherent nature, this duality and contrast will enable us to achieve that unique, evolutionary Human role in the system I mentioned above. There are already many thousands of people who are kin this conscious process of self-recognition and self-development.
