A look at the current direction of human evolution on the planet By Jose Silva with Ed Bernd Jr.
Jose Silva was the world's leader in mind research, and conducted research in this field from 1944 until his death in 1999. He is founder of the world's most famous mind training system. Ed Bernd Jr. came to work for Jose Silva as a staff lecturer and editor in 1981. He co-authored several books with Silva, including Sales Power: The Silva Mind Method for Sales Professionals; Think and Grow Fit; and Jose Silva's UltraMind ESP System. This article was written in 1996.
Even as you read these words, humanity is already beginning to take the first steps into the second phase of human evolution on our planet. The first phase was physical development. The second phase is spiritual development.
The signs of this new phase of our growth as human beings are unmistakable to observers and practitioners in the field of brain/mind research. Only a relative handful of the more than 5 billion people on the planet have joined the movement so far, but they are already having a major impact. And not a moment too soon. We have reached the point where our physical skills and our mighty brains are no longer up to the tasks that face humanity.
We need something more. Where Are We Headed?
When you contemplate and meditate on where humanity stands today on this planet, you will readily see that the human race is going in a demoralizing, degenerative, destructive direction. If not corrected, this can only end in disaster. Indicators indicate that:
· Crime is getting worse all the time, everywhere. · Drug trafficking is causing great human suffering, and increased violence and killing. · Water and air pollution are ruining our planet, our home. · Many individuals are discouraged and no longer even try to lead productive, creative lives. · Teenage pregnancies, especially to those who are not ready to be parents, is creating a whole underclass that is not functioning creatively and productively. · Global unrest continues to increase. · Many nations are going bankrupt. · Wars are being fought over who gets a piece of land, how a person should worship, and for selfish economic reasons.
This stressful situation is bound to shorten the life span of the human race, as well as individual humans. Well, that's the "problem" image. Now that we've identified the problem, the next question is: "Why do we have all of these problems?"
