Rastafari Speaks

The Divine Plan
In Response To: truth/speak ()

For Disciple:

I haven't opened this book for at least five years; I found something however that I thought might be of interest to you.

Metu Neter; The Author's Preface

"We live in a world that was created, and is maintained by the unified working of a multiplicity of agencies. We live in a world that is composed of a multiplicity of entities that are unified through a web of interdependence.

In the Infancy of his spiritual evolutionary career, Man is unable to perceive the hidden forces and abstract principles that unify the working of the shaping forces of the world, and the entities that make up the world. He creates, therefore, a way of life-systems of religion, science, economics, government, education, family, philosophy, etc. – that is incapable of establishing, and maintaining unity - law, order, peace, harmony - in the world. Thus the world has been plunged, and is sinking deeper, day by day, into the jaws of death.

It is true that he has amassed a great number of facts concerning the workings of nature, and a great collection of ideas concerning religion, and so on, but the possession of a mass of facts, however reliable the facts are, does not constitute the possession of a science, nor does the possession of a collection of ideas about religion, constitute the possession of a religion, for the knowledge contained in these facts regarding nature, and these ideas concerning religion, does not embody the principles that are necessary to unify the facts, and ideas. It is only when facts concerning nature, or the ideas about religion are linked to each other, and to the whole, that a science, or a religion is formed.

Man’s perception of the world, however, cannot change the reality that the world is shaped, and maintained by a unified multiplicity of agencies, and that the world is made up of infinitude of interdependent entities. This reality has been known to Black and Oriental cultures, and ignored by Westerners as far back as history can take us. The Black nations of antiquity, through the cultivation of the science of inducing the state of waking trance, which enables Man to perceive the working of abstract principles, and the hidden shaping forces of the world, were able to create a way life-systems of religion, philosophy, government, economics, etc. – that was capable of establishing and maintaining unity, and thus led to the creation of civilization.

Unity, harmony, and order in society cannot be achieved through the making of laws by Man, and the policing of people’s behavior. As Man’s life on earth is a product of the Supreme Being’s creative process, every aspect of Man’s life is therefore, controlled by the divine creative agencies. Unity, and thus, prosperity in society can only be achieved by Man’s efforts to intuit the knowledge of how divine agencies are shaping his life, i.e., to intuit the knowledge of the Divine Plan. (Maat) It follows, logically, that the Divine Plan would contain the knowledge of the unifying principles, of the multiplicity of shaping forces of the world, and of the entities making up the world. Through it, all things, and events in the world were unified. Religion, with science, with government, with philosophy, with medicine, and so on. Man with nature, with God, etc. It achieved this monumental accomplishment by assigning to each event, force, entity, and idea a place in space (hierarchy/rank) and time.
