Topic: The False Unity of the Noosphere
I finally finished a text on the noosphere, which I promised I would post here.
Much more could be said but I hope this sums up the more important points...
THE FALSE UNITY OF THE NOOSPHERE
In many of us, there is this nostalgia of a remote time when there was a much greater unity between beings. This is a fuzzy vision, far away behind us, and few individuals are ready to provide the inner efforts necessary to fuel a return. Thus many satisfy themselves with the false solutions offered by the system which please their lazy egos, moving further away from the object of their desires.
It is often this hope of a return to the Source which entices people to ingest psychedelic drugs, a certain thirst – particularly strong in our western materialist society – to feel that we are intimately part of the universe, that we are all connected, and that our life has meaning. Unfortunately the impatience of our ego ends up making us vulnerable to even bigger illusions.
Ken Kesey, a product of the Tavistock Institute specialized in social control, said that his daily diet of LSD, during his involvement in the 60's psychedelic bus of the Merry Pranksters, made him feel as if his psyche was fusing with those of other members of the group.[1] He evoked the noosphere, «Earth's mental envelope », conceptualized by the jesuit Teilhard de Chardin.
What happens in the case of drugs is that we volontarily put our soul under the grip of the egregore – the astral entity, or group-soul – behind this substance, which shows us its own reality. It is then normal to feel connected with the other souls also under its influence, and whose gestures and words are the expression. However, disconnected from ourselves, it is not our inner being that we share.
Those occult «technologies » – that we could call Luciferian according to the terms of Rudolf Steiner – have inspired another type of technologies, those ones Ahrimanic. When Marshall McLuhan announces in 1968 that «computers are the LSD of the business world »[2], he's not just playing with words but evoking a strange aspect of reality. Many businessmen and engineers of the computer world – from Apple to Microsoft – have admitted taking psychedelic substances in order to find new ideas.[3] It would seem that Internet is another product of such «inspirations ».
Internet itself can give the impression to fill this need for unity and communication, and future technologies – from wireless pocket PCs to virtual reality – should continue in this direction. However we have never been so isolated from each others and it seems we have forgotten how to speak «heart to heart », but only through machines, which turns us into machines as well.
We can talk and inform ourselves for hours on the Web – just as we can indefinitely explore the world of astral illusions – but, in the end, we stay in the comfortable world of our ego, choosing what pleases us to believe, gradually losing our ability to confront the reality of those around us, shifting away from a certain objectivity. The physical distance caused by the «miracles » of telecommunication prevents also this energetic exchange necessary to become receptacles for divine energies. It is then much more difficult to feel the truth and access more subtle layers of reality.
The significance of this illusory search for unity goes much further than the simple individual neurosis. The more those people seek to connect to the Source using means outside of themselves, the more they feed egregores with the energy of their soul, the more powerful these entities become, the more impact they have on reality. The same goes for the Internet which is becoming «alive » thanks to the continuous feeding of millions of souls.
For promoters of the noosphere such as José Arguëlles, founder of a huge spiritual movement around the mayan calendar[4], the «technosphere » is a necessary step to go from the biosphere to the noosphere. This means that it is through infrastructures such as the Internet that humanity will put itself on the same frequency and then, having acquired «supra-psychic » powers, technology will become obsolete. Or, more likely, the development of nanotechnology – combined with biotechnology, information technology, cognitive science and sociotechnology – will render it invisible.
Just as technologies are converging[5], the egregores in the astral world are currently uniting in a single planetary egregore, which could be called «Gaia ». The individuals disconnected from their divine essence are finding themselves gradually absorbed by this planetary ego – the noosphere or the Matrix – moved only by an instinct of conservation and not by spiritual values such as Truth, Love and Freedom, even if those who lock themselves in this collective prison, enticing others to follow them, pretend to do so by «love ».
By opening themselves with drugs or by staying hypnotized in front of screens, those people are emptying their souls until they become channels for superior forces – which is to say the negative hierarchy which has been controlling humanity for millenia. Their thoughts telepathically transmitted from the noosphere, they lose all individuality, even if their ego builds up. Indeed, Teilhard de Chardin wrote of homogenization and depersonalization[6].
Those people believe they are free but, their souls energetically enslaved, their choices are limited to a certain framework, weither it is the binary world of computers or the astral world of drugs. Julian Huxley, founder of the UNESCO, saw the noosphere as «the union of humanity into a simple inter-thinking group based on a single self-developing framework of thought »[2]. His brother Aldous, by the way, is responsible for the spread of the LSD cult in the sixties.[1] Author of «Brave New World », he was well aware of the use of drugs as a mean of social control.
Since there are no coincidence in the world of the elites, we will note also that the grandfather of these two brothers, the freemason Thomas H. Huxley, was a avid defender of the theories of Darwin and dedicated his life to eliminate competing thesis.[7] The belief in a progressive biological evolution is a necessary ground for the seeding of the belief in a progressive mental (some would say «spiritual ») evolution, at the base of the concept of the noosphere. This also justifies the ideology of «conscious evolution » which affirms that humanity must now take its biological evolution in its own hands with the help of eugenism and genetic engineering, rather than allow the «randomness » of nature to control it. Once again, we see how this promised «spiritual evolution » is intimately linked with technological evolution.
To go back to those people who have «sold their soul to the Devil » by integrating the negative hierarchy, we need to realize that, even if their freewill has been reduced to a minimum, they have potentially access to all the informations stored in the noosphere and thus have much power. On the other hand, those of us who seek this information to free ourselves and others will need to provide superhuman efforts to reach it. But we have the power to transcend and to use any situation as a catalyst for liberation.
In the coming years, the prophetized emergence of the noosphere will create such a strong social conditioning that much personal will-power will be needed to avoid being engulfed in these currents. Those who don't follow will feel increasingly alienated, while everyone around them will give the appearance of understanding each others and being «filled with love ». The test of the «Last Judgment » will consist in recognizing that this union is artificial and that true Love has been distorted.
It will then be necessary to have the courage to refuse this culture of death and to detach from the rest of humanity regarding our beliefs. It is only by making this step in the abyss – having Faith that «God doesn't abandon its children » – that we will have the opportunity to meet other dissident souls in order to create, together, a new world in accordance with the divine laws and thus preparing our comeback to true cosmic Unity.
