In the name of so-called progress




In the name of so-called progress we are killing our part

a time not so far away, say less two generations ago,
people's lives was still full of small, large signs that
developed the best part: imagination, sensitivity,
the astonishment before the world, the pietas towards others and towards
dead.
the approaching anniversary of Saint Lucia and Christmas, the children wrote a letter
where
taken stock of their own moral behavior, and aims to improve
asked, anxiously, the toy so long dreamed not
claimed, the requests, while fully aware of not having
deserved.
was a lesson in humility to themselves and to start a clarification
interior. It was also an exercise in good writing. Finally
was a stimulus to creativity and development of
aesthetic sense, because that letter, that was a real
event in the life of the child, was decorated with drawings and decorations
that made it a small masterpiece of inventive and artistic skills
.
Then came the Christmas letters already good and ready: it
in stationery and had already bought all the designs and decorations
, simply type the text.
Finally, the letter has also disappeared, as have disappeared
Saint Lucia and baby Jesus. Toys
parents took them directly, without the child had done nothing to deserve it:
so, in homage to the rampant consumerism.
Another example.
time that we were talking about, at Many families had spread
a pious and sweet tradition to leave a glass of water on the kitchen table
the evening, the eve of the November 2, the day of the feast of the dead
. That water was to quench the
souls in Purgatory, the night would come to drink.
A remnant of superstition and a waste of time that the magic has dissipated
modern science? Sure, maybe. But even if he was?
was not a good tradition, as well as poetry, since it helped to keep
attended
spiritual path that connects the living to the dead, but now that path is inexorably
covering of weeds, since no more through it?
We could go on and on with examples like that, but we believe we have made the
idea of \u200b\u200bwhat we mean.
Typically, in the account for the disappearance of such gestures, as
to give thanks for food when you sit down to table, or
bless a person who leaves home to take a trip, you
answers - even if you plan to give an explanation - which is
just get rid of the remnants of the past, since we live in a world where
science, technology and economy march faster and faster.
goes round and round, then, is still the same, eternal
ideology of unlimited progress, which should explain everything, justify all
to account for everything. What do you want us to, is progress, and not
you can not go against progress, that's for sure ...
Yet, just a thought even enough to make hasty
realize that things are otherwise, that this is only an explanation
which is given a posteriori for the illusion that he still has control of the situation
, while the opposite is true: that this so-called
progress is more like a locomotive launched in all
speed without driver and no brakes, along a siding.
the same way they are missing the kind gestures, words
good, symbols of our relationship with the supernatural reality, so are disappearing
peoples, languages, cultures, so are
disappearing species of plants and animals, in an ever more dizzying
, so we are entering, in full sail (so to say),
in the paradise of modernity.
We would like to convince us that this is the result of a preordained plan
and, yes, perhaps there are no side effects
expected, but still, overall, the positives outweigh
immensely, without the possibility of comparison.
Is it not true that many diseases have been tamed (but other
it appeared) that human life has lengthened (But only the duration
average), that the comfort and well-being have been widely used (but
only a part of humanity and at the cost of tensions and neuroses
every day growing)? So, how can we doubt the goodness of progress?
And then, progress can not be judged: it is an obvious value in itself;
anyone should question must be suffering from some mental disorder
. Luckily there is a brand new science, psychiatry,
to treat these individuals always discontented, inexplicably ungrateful
and potentially dangerous to society as a whole. In
Soviet Union resorted to psychiatry to "cure" those
did not appreciate the wonders of socialism, and Marxism, on closer look
, was merely one of many forms of worship
Progress, one of the many ideologies that left the noble and altruistic
Enlightenment belief (and positivist) that the reason serve
to bring happiness to everyone, whether they like it, whether you do not want to ...

The peasants of the Vendée, for example, did not want that kind of happiness
: they wanted to keep their priests, their superstitions and
"horrible dictu," their lords, in short they wanted tradition and
the ancien regime: which is why the French republican armies, in the name of the Goddess Reason
and happiness, they murdered about one
million.
But what is that one million peasants in the Vendée, in front of
"magnificent and progressive" of modernity? What is never
eight million Russian peasants, against the creation of a
heavy industry in a few years and the same, the total destruction of private property
rural
ever outbreak of reaction and superstition?
The fact is that, in the name of so-called progress, then that is just brutal
material development, we are killing the best part of us
themselves: what dreams, and amazed, that praises and thanks, what is
feels connected to everything that exists, everything that
lives, everything that breathes beginning with the Earth, "
our Sister Mother Earth," as St. Francis called the sublime "Canticle of the Creatures
'sister and mother at the same time.
We are not surprised about anything, we know that science has an answer for everything
, nor more to appreciate all that life offers us
: this is not a gift, but a prey, and conquering, not
that we exercise our right.
a time not too far away, the mandarins were on the table, for
children, a welcome gift of Christmas, the apples were a gift, also
hot freshly baked bread was a gift. Those kids knew how much work had cost
bread and they knew that without the sun, without
the rain, without wind, there would be no
mandarins on the table, or apples, or bread ...
Today's children complain if the table there are the fruits out of season
, if there are cakes made

It is certainly not "blame" them.

Come on, tell someone, do not overdo it: after all, it was simply
symbols.
True, true; but the symbols are not a plus, not a frill or an embellishment
; symbols reveal the very soul of life,
both individually and collectively, form a network where harmonious and coherent

In recent decades many people have seen the
Tibet as one of the last areas of the planet where they are retained
ancient traditions of the so-called "Indo-Europeans".
fact does not exclude the possibility that the waves of immigration from Europe,
occurred between the third and first millennium before the year zero,
have also affected these highlands, bringing people and
European traditions. Until yesterday, we could observe that at an altitude of 4000 meters
media has developed a culture that has remained largely independent
over the centuries:
it would have much to teach (or remind) us Europeans remained
is in our land, but most of our private
cultural backgrounds. Studies of prehistoric Tibetan
are almost totally missing, even though you are engaged at the sites recognized
Upper Palaeolithic to the Neolithic.
The megalithic culture is common, with isolated menhirs and alignments, for example
: "a Do-ring, there are 18 rows of standing stones" .1
The Tibetan language has many dialects and is included, according to some,
-up in the family Tibetan. But it deserves more attention and a more detailed comparative study
especially the so-called dialects.
about their origins Tibetans recall the various myths and one of the most ancient
speaks of the existence of an egg, the matrix of all creation:
"primordial Quest'uovo concentrated in itself all the elements-air,
earth, fire, water and space and gave birth to eighteen other eggs from one of these
sprang a being without form, but capable of thinking, that
felt the need to see, touch, hear, feel, taste and
move and then in turn created the human body ".2
The order is made by Tsen-Nyatri po, a warrior king of the sky
wearing a metal helmet, which are symbols of power armor that slips
alone and magical objects that act as
only: the spear, sword and the shield. This sort of demigod
is still deadly: "At the moment of earthly death
his body turned into a rainbow and let him back in his first home

Macedonian Empire, Mauryan Empire in India, and the late Empire
Chou in China. In his first eight centuries, Tibet was ruled by
a military dynasty. He had a religious system
animist, governed by a priesthood of shamans in divination experts,
the magical arts and sacrifices, while its system of government
focuses on a royal family considered of divine descent. The
first seven kings descended to earth to rule from a rope ladder
suspended in the sky, on which would then be recovered as soon as he arrived
their time. The eighth king, after a short conflict,
cut the rope that bound him to the sky and, from then on, the rulers
like the Egyptian pharaohs were buried in large burial mounds

Recalling the proselytizing of missionaries Catholics, who in India go by

in view of the latter: "The severe
organization of monasteries, the ' dialectical skill of teachers, the theological niceties
discussed with witty force in logic
gatherings of monks and the austerity of many rites well-arranged their souls to Tibetan Buddhism
".5
Speaking of Buddhism can not be forgotten that the Fourteenth
Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso, Tibet's spiritual and political guide,
and Nobel Peace Prize in 1989, lives in exile in India since 1959. Dalai Lama
is the title given to the head of the Buddhist religion-Lamaist
living in Lhasa (Tibet) in the Potala Palace. In 1950 the troops of the Chinese Communist government
Maoist attack Tibet and the treaty of May 23, 1951

that involve the Tibetan territory
about two thousand years, just to remind you that in 1720 China
intervenes militarily imposing its two commissioners to the next Dalai Lama
period. So says Thubten Norbu Dschigme, brother of the Dalai Lama more
and abbot of the Buddhist monastery of Kumbum
located near Sining in China: "Once again I had to go to
Sining by the Committee for Tibet. I declared that I had to carry with them
couple and a Chinese wireless operator;
it was to remain always in communication with Sining,
to keep themselves informed of what was happening to our caravan.
I agreed reluctantly. In their speech the deposed Communist

of proposals that terrifies me and irritated me. What I had heard
was so monstrous, that only I could hardly control myself.
If I were able to convince the government of Lhasa to welcome the troops of the People's Republic
Liberation Army of China and
recognize Communist China, I was appointed Governor General of
Tibet. As such I
guided and supported the great work of reconstruction, in which our religion was
replaced communist ideology. If the Dalai Lama had
opposite, I would find ways and means to remove it in half.
made me understand that fratricide is justified when it comes to achieving
communist ideas. They took samples, which showed that
similar acts had been rewarded with the highest levels ".6
since 1950 more than a million Tibetans have died as a result of the Chinese

monasteries were destroyed and tens of thousands of displaced people, including many monks.
The territory is the subject of a precise program and deculturation

European states are watching, dazzled by the myth that Chinese

Europe in not taking account of
Chinese slave labor, much less demanding of today's unemployed workers-

The importance of myth, Eliade.





The myth, Eliade, gives value and meaning to the world and life
Francesco Lamendola - 16/11/2010

Man can not live without myths, rather, can not live without a system
mythical thinking, which integrates in itself the whole
phenomenon of existence.
Because it is mythical universe of archaic cultures and those
traditional pre-modern world, however, there is an attitude
sufficiency and indifference to it, almost as if you were

contended in a "primitive", but utterly incongruous in
rational society. This
crude scientistic prejudice means that the modern Western culture
hard to find the tools and operating
same conceptual categories capable of understanding the phenomenon of
from mythology, that is capturing the vital joints
with the spiritual horizon of the people who have worked to give
basis for their existence and to establish a relationship of
correspondence between themselves and the surrounding reality.
The myth is not only a tool to rationalize natural phenomena
ancestral fears and to reassure the man, as the Vulgate would
scientist, but something much more complex and
much higher: it is a window on the transcendent dimension
gaping immanent, sull'atemporale in time, in its
on the absolute.
Thanks to the myth, reality takes on a meaning and to the human
under the category of values, starting with its very existence
, connected to the past (ancestors) and future (descendants),
and all other living things, plants and animals, the sky, the
earth, the seasons, daily and at night, and pervaded by powerful currents
superhuman presence, now benign malignant hours, that man
same may, under certain conditions, understand, and sometimes
master.

, signed by their ancestors and continually renewed by the
requirements totemic and shamanistic rites, through which the Earth offers
man what he needs, as long as it uses with
wisdom and moderation, provided that you acknowledge all that
debtor receives.
The myth is the structure of thought that gives an account of all of this and
thus offering the prospect of a man

embryo of philosophical thought, or, rather, a form of
parallel to philosophical thought. In fact, the
mythology is not a philosophy girl, but a form of
thought that, like philosophy, seeks to explain the origin of things
and life, not limiting - however - the size of
logical thinking, nor a kind of knowledge is objective and external to things, but
descending, so to speak, in the things themselves, in order to reveal the hidden face
and deep meanings that speak to man

This does not in any way mean that the myth is a form of knowledge

this, see also our previous article: "The thought mythical
is different, not less than scientific," especially dedicated to the discussion of epistemology
German Kurt Hübner,
appeared on the site in Arianna Editrice date 15/01/2008).
The great historian of religions Mircea Eliade
has devoted much of his studies and his own reflections
to illuminate the meaning of myth in the context of ancient cultures, with special emphasis on the
shamanism; and, on this topic,
has written some of the most significant that the entire
European culture has produced.
Observe, therefore, in Eliade, "Myth and Reality" (original title: "Myth and Reality
; transduction of Italian Giovanni Cantoni, Rome, Borla
Editore, 1974, pp. 144-46)

" In a world similar [to that of myth], the man does not feel
locked in his mode of existence, he is also "open"
communicates with the world, because it uses the same language: the symbol. If the world's
speaks through its stars, its plants and its
animals, its rivers and its mountains, its seasons and its nights,
the man responds with his dreams and his imaginative life, with
his ancestors, or with his "totem" - at a time nature, and humans
sovranatura - with its ability to die and rise again
ritually in its initiation ceremonies (neither more nor less
the moon and vegetation), with its power to embody a spirit
putting on a mask, etc.. If the world is transparent
for archaic man, this feeling "watched" and understood by
world. The game looks at him and understands him (often without capturing the animal
because he knows that man hungry), as well as rock, or
the tree, or river. Each has its own story to tell, a
advice from him.
While knowing how to be human and accepted as such, the man of archaic societies
also known to be something more. For example,
knows that his ancestor was an animal, or can die and come back to life
(initiation, shamanic trance), which can influence the
collected by its orgies (which can act with his wife as
heaven and earth, or who may be a part of the cutter and his wife
the groove). In the more complex cultures, the man knows
that his breath is wind, that his bones are like mountains,
a fire burning in his stomach, her navel
can become "the center of the world", etc..
must not imagine that this "openness" to the world is translated into a conception
bucolic existence myths of "primitive" rituals and
dependent not reveal ancient Arcadia.
As we have seen, the paleocoltivatori take responsibility to prosper
the plant world, have also accepted
torture victims the benefit of crops, sexual orgy, the
cannibalism, head-hunting.
This is a tragic conception of life,
result of religious exploitation of torture and violent death.
a myth as that of Hainuwele [passed in the Moluccas, in the easternmost part of today's
Indonesia], and the whole socio-religious
that it articulates and justifies
force man to accept his condition of being mortal and sexual,
kill and sentenced to work in order to feed. The world's plant and animal
"speaks" of his source, that is, ultimately, to
Hainuwele, the paleo farmer discovers
includes this language and meaning to everything around him and everything he does.
But this requires him to accept
cruelty and murder as part and parcel of its way of being. Certainly, cruelty, torture, killing
, specific behaviors are not exclusive of
"primitive." You encounter them throughout history, sometimes with a paroxysm
unknown in archaic societies.
The difference is mainly in the fact that, for the "primitive", this violent conduct
has a religious value and is modeled on models superhuman. This concept
lasted a long time in history. The mass extermination of a
Genghis Khan, for example, are still a religious justification
.
The myth is not, if itself, a guarantee of "goodness" and morality. The
Its function is to reveal patterns and thus provide a
meaning to the world and human al'esistenza. Even his role in
constitution of man is immense. By virtue of the myth, we said,
ideas of reality, value, transcendence, are slowly
to light. By virtue of the myth, the world is left to grasp the universe as
perfectly articulated, intelligible and meaningful.
telling how things were done, the myth reveals for whom and for what
were made and in what circumstances. All these "revelations" directly engage
man because they are a "sacred history
."

As you can see, the vision of Eliade is very far from any sweetened
in key roussoiana of archaic societies, no
myth of the noble savage, no "goodness" inherent in the mythical world: and ,
the rest, just a basic knowledge of history and ancient literature
for immediate account.
Is it not to perform a rite of nature and propitiatory atonement
Achilles kills the twelve Trojan youths on the pyre of Patroclus;
fine episode that even Virgil, a member of a culture
much more "modern" and resumed his "Aeneid "? Well, this is
an action that is meaningful in the light of belief in a link between
aldiqua el'Aldilà, originally
light and meaning to the myth: specifically, the belief that the blood of some
innocent victims to appease the Hands of a torn
prematurely deceased to life.
And are not filled with Etruscan tombs, starting with the famous
Tomb of François Vulci of such representations, even
impressive in his office of the tragic and bloody
realism, with the demon hell Charun (Charon latrines) from
'frightening aspect that accompanies the souls on their journey to the Kingdom of the
dead?
Eliade reminds us that the practice of human sacrifice is inextricably tied to the cultures of
paleocotivatori;
and archeology gives us confirmation, from one end of the world, from Europe to the Americas
: for example, with the ceremonies Maya
to avoid drought by sacrificing a virgin maiden
, which was plunged into a well, or that of Skidi
dedicated to the Pawnee Morning Star, in which, again
propitiate the magical forces of nature, they
killing a virgin, at dawn, pierce with small flaming arrows.
are wrong, then, both those who flaunt contempt
the mythical conception of the world, both those who idealize the
in a naively uncritical, projecting on it
their yearning for a perfect and unspoiled Eden that is born of frustration
to be members of an individualistic and materialistic society maddeningly
.
The function of myth was and is essentially
reveal the hidden dimension, original things, showing the close interconnection
that all joins and combining them also
man.
At the same time, the myth handed down the memory of a time when a happy
order reigned in the world and man himself enjoyed a privileged status
; both things that are lost due to a
disorder, a disturbance, a fall that cracked
the original layout, but note that the myth is able to recover, at least partially
, enabling human beings to reconnect to that
successful original condition.
In this sense, it is fair to say that myth seeks to reintegrate
man in his ontological fullness and that reintegration takes
forms and the prospect of an elevation, ie a
overcome its present condition, limited and precarious to develop and strengthen
him in the higher faculties, including that of
talk to property, plants, animals and, therefore, to have closer ties
magic that keep in balance the cosmic forces.
The myth is also linked from this side to shamanism and
man opens the possibility to enter no more helpless as a bystander or victim
resigned, but as a true protagonist in the game
of these cosmic forces, from which it can draw power It is possible that
in the ordinary state of existence, are unimaginable for him. Finally, the myth
outlines a sacral conception of reality, a
conception, namely, that, clothed in mystery and power
elements of the cosmos, there is the polar opposite of our secular culture and
its claim to understand everything, to explain everything, to measure and quantify everything
, in the light of the Logos instrumental and calculative.
The myth, in fact, is not simply knowledge of reality, but
revelation and, as such, requires a corpus of doctrines
esoteric that only the time and manner established
can be transmitted from generation to generation, he was of the human upper
; what is proper under the name of tradition. Recognizing a Tradition
superhuman, from which they derive much
the cosmic order, when the doctrines that allow initiation
man to see it, to respect and to stand in line with it, the myth
there is, indeed, as a form of approach to the real
radically different, and antagonist, compared to that which we moderns
we become so accustomed to consider the only true and
effective.
One thing is certain: until they drop from the pedestal of our
scientistic presumption, we can not understand anything about the myth and continue
or denigrate, or idealize,
never penetrate the inner essence.
that can not be captured in such schemes only logical and scientific
, such as those which we have lived four centuries of rationalism
materialistic and mechanistic, but that requires a leap, a discontinuity in our
attitude toward reality, which
involving not only the Logos, but all of our faculty, beginning
the internal senses and the potential slumbering soul.
