Gnostic Anthropology, a book by Samael Aun Weor

Chapter 2

Written by Samael Aun Weor

The theme of the origin of the human being is indeed very debatable and very thorny.

Charles Robert Darwin left certain principles in his work which must be remembered by the materialistic anthropologists. Darwin states that a species that evolves positively cannot in any way descend from another that evolves negatively. Darwin also affirms that two similar species (even though different) can refer to a common ancestor, but one can never come from the other.

Thus, as we advance through these disquisitions of scientific anthropology, we obviously find certain contradictions within materialism. How is it possible that Darwin's former principles are ignored? How is it possible that people who think that the human being comes from the ape still exist in this day and age? Unquestionably, the facts are speaking for themselves and until now the famous missing link has not been found. Where is it?

Much has been stated against the existence of the father of Manu, the "Dhyan Chohan," yet indeed there are millions of people in the eastern and western world who accept it. Moreover, such a belief is more logical than Haeckel's monkey-man, who indeed is nothing more than one of his fantasies.

Time is passing by and the famous Simian-Man has not yet been discovered in any place on Earth. Where (in the world) is the ape that is capable of reasoning, thinking, and that has a language? Where is it? Hence, in depth these types of materialistic bookish fantasies are absolutely good for nothing.

Observe for instance the size of the brains: The cephalic mass of a gorilla does not even reach the third part of the brain of any savage person from our terrestrial globe. A link that would connect the most evolved gorilla with the most uncivilized savage person from Australia is missing. Where is that link, what happened with it? Does it exist?

Undoubtedly, the first simians appeared in the Lemurian continent during the Mesozoic Epoch, but where was their origin? Gnostic anthropology emphatically affirms that certain degenerated groups of humans in Lemuria sexually mixed themselves with beasts in order to originate the simian species.

Haeckel never, in any way, opposed himself to the concept that the apes had their birth in Australia, in Lemuria. He always accepted the reality of the Lemurian continent.

Yet, let us reflect a little. Where was Lemuria located? In the Pacific Ocean, this is obvious. It covered an extensive zone of that sea. Lemuria submerged itself little by little, during ten thousand years of earthquakes within the boisterous waves of that ocean. Yet, remnants of Lemuria were left, namely Oceania, Australia, Easter Island, etc.

Lemuria was real; it had its place in a very ancient time. This assertion can upset the materialistic anthropologist partisans of Pangaea. These gentlemen have their minds bottled up within that dogma related to Pangaea; they do not even remotely accept the possibility of Lemuria.

There is absolutely nothing strange about the fact that the simians were born during the Mesozoic Era and evolved to the Miocene Epoch, yet others from the Eocene Epoch, during the Tertiary Period.

However, our assertions do not end here. Other species of apes had their origin in the Atlantis of Plato, a continent that is nothing more than a myth to the materialistic fanatic partisans of Pangaea. Nonetheless, even if they deny it, Atlantis existed. Even if they are opposed to it, Atlantis has already been discovered. Anyone who has studied the marine floor knows very well that between America and Europe a great marine platform exists.

It was precisely a few years ago when several scientists (those who had discovered Atlantis) proposed to explore the remains of Atlantis from the coasts of Spain. Nonetheless, Spain was ruled by Franco's regimen; therefore, they were not allowed to perform their investigations.

Therefore, Atlantis is not what it is believed to be, that is to say, it is not a fantastic legend, but rather a tremendous reality. In other times, the map of the world was completely different.

Everything is changing; even the supporters of Alfred Wegener's Pangaea have suffered great changes. We know very well that the floating continents have to experience some displacements; Mario Roso de Luna had already clearly explained this and therefore it should not surprise anybody. The materialistic fanatics of Pangaea do not deny this, at least they do agree with this. However, they lack a lot of necessary information in order to know the causes of the displacements of these continental flotations. I think that if they would study Mario Roso de Luna, they would better complete their information.

If we compare our earth to that of a cracked-open egg, then the yoke would be the continents floating over the egg-white. Many substances, liquids and elements might exist between the continent-like yoke and the egg-white, yet in this day and age materialistic science does not know about them at all.

There are some who believe that certain types of superior apes come from Lemuria, for example:

The gorilla, a genre of anthropomorphic ape that comes from Equatorial Africa, and has a stature of about two meters and a maximum weight of 250 Kg.

The orangutan which comes from the Malayan language and means, "a man from the trees," is also known as the great anthropomorphic ape from Sumatra and Borneo; it measures about 1.20 to 1.50 meters in stature; they are arboreal and easy to domesticate.

The chimpanzee is an anthropomorphic ape from Africa.

There are others who clearly affirm that the inferior types of apes, like the Catarrhine or Platyrrhine, etc., properly came from Atlantis. We cannot make objections about this, but indeed we must profoundly reflect upon it.

Materialistic science is making certain very silly statements in this day and age; everyday they invent new hypotheses. So, a chain has been established that is very curious and ludicrous in content, a chain that is related with our possible ancestors. The shark appears to be the king of that chain from which (according to those anthropologists) the alligators descended.

Such a theory is ludicrous in itself; indeed it is only conceivable by alligator-like minds. They continue stating that the famous opossum comes after the alligator; they state that the opossum is a creature similar to a crocodile but a little more evolved (this is what they emphasize). Afterwards, a certain little animal follows the course of that great chain of marvels. In this day and age they have given a lot of importance to that little animal; I am emphatically referring to the lemur. They grant onto the lemur a discoid placenta, a matter that is rejected by zoologists.

We find gigantic contradictions within these gorges of false science. They proceed by stating that from the Lemur (which could have existed some 150 millions of years ago) descends the monkey and finally the gorilla appears at the end of this chain. In this fantastic chain the gorilla is our immediate ancestor, the forefather of the human being.

Some anthropologists (as I have already stated in the first chapter) do not set aside the wretched mouse while talking about these themes; they even wanted to include it inside their fancy chain. In which link of this ludicrous chain do they place the mouse? Between which animals should this "Mr. Mouse" be? Who knows; let them suffer with their theories.

Based on the fact that the mouse is small, they affirm with a tone of extraordinary sapience that the human being was also so minute, so microscopic, that is to say, so tiny that in this day and age we would be overwhelmed if we were to see such a human being. On what do they base their theories in order to asseverate such nonsense?

So, should we accept that human beings (according to them) are children of the mouse? I do not know in which link of that chain they include the mouse, perhaps before or after the Lemur.

They sustain that we grew until we reached the present human height of this great civilization and until we reached the extraordinary perfection that this civilization possesses now.

So in this day and age, the mouse is the priority in public anthropological conferences of this great civilization. Thus, if things continue in this way, then within a short time the governments should prohibit the killing of mice, since according to the materialistic anthropologists the mice are our forefathers.

Where are all the links of such a chain? How is it possible that a shark turns into an alligator, from one night to the next, or throughout many centuries, just like that? Many millions of years have passed and the sharks continue to be sharks. Never has it been seen that from one species of sharks (whether from the Atlantic or Pacific Oceans) new alligators were born. To begin with, the crocodiles, alligators or caimans (at least the ones we know) are not found in the seas, but rather in rivers and lakes (except the crocodile-like anthropologists who are very civilized and who are going around the world inventing silly theories).

Do you know of a species of alligators that has emerged from within the boisterous waves of the ocean? The world knows very well that the habitat for all types of alligators is the sweet waters.

We have seen alligators in great rivers and this is easily proven. We have visited the oceans and we have never seen or heard of any fisherman that has caught an alligator within his net in the middle of the ocean. They might catch sharks, but alligators? When?

We are asserting things based on clear, concrete and definitive facts.

Where might the links be which bond the alligator to the opossum? Where might the links be which bond the opossum to that small animal the lemur, an animal which is deprived of a placenta and because of this Haeckel labeled it a creature with a discoid placenta?

Continuing, where are the links which bond the lemur with the monkey? Where are the links which would bond the monkey with the gorilla? And where are the links of the gorilla to the human being? Where are they? We have seen precise elements and we observe that the points of connection are missing.

To state things just like that is abundantly absurd. Much has been said about the Monera, an atom of the aqueous abyss, the first drop of salt within a silurian ocean (which was filled with mud at its bottom and where the first bed of rocks was not yet deposited). However, what is the origin of the Monera? Could we perhaps conceive that something so extraordinary as the first atomic point of protoplasm which is so properly organized and with such a complex construction can be the outcome of fortuity, the outcome of chance?

We understand that when we deny the Intelligent Principles of Nature, then the whole organization of protoplasm doesn't make any sense.

Time is passing by and materialistic anthropology is going to be destroyed little by little. The materialistic anthropologists still cannot say when and how the first human being appeared. They state nothing more than ludicrous hypotheses, conjectures that lack serious foundations.

Materialistic anthropology pinpoints Australia a lot. The position of conventional anthropology is highly supported when they state that the descendant tribes that live in Australia descended from apes. Scientifically, the former statement falls to the floor when we measure the size of the brains and confront the facts. We see that the size of the brain of a highly developed gorilla does not even reach half of the mass of the brain of an uncivilized native of Australia. Therefore, a point of union between the two is missing.

So, where is that link? Let them show it to us, for we are all here to see it. In my first lecture (the first chapter) I said that the gentlemen of materialistic anthropology affirm (in an extremely grandiloquent way) that they only believe in what they can see, yet the facts are showing us their falsity. They firmly believe in absurd hypothesis which they never have witnessed. The fact of attributing, or stating that human beings come from sharks, to establish a whimsical chain just based on morphologic resemblance, shows us in the depth a superficiality taken to extremes. If what they write about is nonsense, they are indeed abusing the readers' intelligence a lot. If what they talk and teach about is nonsense, then they are indeed terribly comic and even ludicrous.

Human beings were sexually mixed with beasts in Lemuria and this is something that we have no doubt about at all. Apes were not the only outcome of this mixture, so were various monstrous forms that even in this day and age have documentation in the Eastern part of the world as well as in the Western part.

We will cite as an example certain estranged Lemurian simians that could serve as a mockery for the superficial materialists of this epoch. Yet, one has to affirm the truth with valor. These Lemurian simians were a certain species that existed; they were soon walking using their hands and feet as any simian would; before long they were standing on their two feet. They had blue and also red faces. These simians were the outcome of certain human beings who crossed themselves with subhuman beasts of the Miocene Epoch, specifically in the Mesozoic Epoch. We find everything that we formerly stated within reference materials such as on papyrus, on codex, on bricks, on ancient monuments and in archaic manuscripts. Thus, the simian forms which emerged in the ancient continent of Mu were multiple.

Nevertheless, how did the human being first appear? In which way did it occur? Until now, all of these interrogatives have been a puzzle, a true enigma for the materialistic partisans of Darwin, Haeckel and even for modern anthropologists.

Where can we find the origin of the human being? Unquestionably, we can find it within the human being himself; where else could it be?

Let us now focus our attention on Australia. What do materialistic anthropologists asseverate? They affirm that the Australian Aboriginal tribes have the anthropoids as their ascendants. Of course, they cannot prove this; yet, they affirm it, they believe in this. See for yourselves how paradoxical these gentlemen truly are.

The Australian clans are the most primitive that presently exist in the world. What could the origin of such families be? We must first begin with the origin of Australia. Australia is a fragment of Lemuria (which was located in the Pacific Ocean); it is an old land.

Where are the ancestors of those tribes? Let us talk about their physical bodies. We will obviously find such osseous remnants at the very bottom of the Pacific Ocean. There we can find skeletons of beasts, since the Australian clans that presently exist are a mixture of certain animal humanoids that passed through many transformations. Such families should be observed, thus we can understand that they are the outcome of the sexual crossing of the inhabitants of ancient Lemuria with the beasts of Nature.

The bodies of some of the native people from many parts of Australia are so abundantly hairy that it seems that they have the skin of beasts. The former statement is the apparent foundation for those materialistic gentlemen to asseverate: "Lo and Behold...these are children of anthropoids... our theory is proven!" Those materialistic anthropologists are extremely superficial; they do not have any maturity in their understanding. Regrettably, their minds are degenerated, in a state of decrepitude.

If we want to search for the origin of the human being we must know Ontogeny in depth. It is not possible to known phylogeny if we exclude Ontogeny.

Observe the recapitulative processes of the human being inside the maternal womb.

Nature always makes recapitulations. Observe a seed, the germ of a tree - inside it exists a potential tree, all it needs is to be developed. So, in order for it to develop, it needs soil, water, air and sunlight. All of the processes passed on by the tree which served as a father are recapitulated by Nature within that seed that must be developed. Using other terms we will state that all the processes through which the whole family of that tree endured through time is recapitulated by Nature within that seed that must be developed. The whole species of that tree developed slowly and grew at the same pace that the other trees did; likewise, so did the tree from which such a seed was detached. In itself that seed makes that process of recapitulation, leaf by leaf, until the tree finally bears its fruits and seeds so that the other trees that will eventually be born from them will make the same recapitulations.

Let us observe how Nature recapitulates all of her marvels within the cosmos. Each year spring, summer, fall and winter return; these are perfect recapitulations.

Thus, a correct recapitulation of the whole human species exists within the maternal womb. All the steps through which the human being passed since his more remote origins are repeated inside the maternal womb.

Stages of development of a fetus

First of all, nobody can deny that inside the maternal womb the fetus passes through the four kingdoms of Nature: First it is a stone, second a plant, third an animal and fourth a human being.

As a human embryo or corpuscle it is inorganic; it is the ovum that detaches itself from the ovary and goes to join the organic matter. Thus circulation carries the ovum to the very bottom of the matter for its own development.

In its second aspect we see how the human embryo assumes the vegetal state. The human fetus looks like a carrot, rounded at its base and pointed in its superior part. When this is clinically studied, it seems much more like an onion with distinct layers; between the layers a marvelous liquid exists. The possibility of the fetus depends upon the umbilical cord of this apparent onion (just like the fruit of any plant). Behold here the vegetal state.

Later on the animal form appears, then the fetus takes the form of a tadpole, and this is already completely proven.

Finally, it will assume the human form. So, the four faces: one mineral, one vegetal, one animal and the last one human get their recapitulation.

After knowing and analyzing all of the former faces, we conclude by stating the following: No physician has ever witnessed the form of the anthropoid in any of the four faces of the fetus. During the process of fetal recapitulation, which scientist has ever observed the fetus taking the form of a Catarrhine or Platyrrhine monkey or the shape of an orangutan or a gorilla? Therefore, what materialistic science affirms is absurd.

Therefore, the origin of the human being has to be found within the woman's very womb. The origin of the human being is hidden within the processes of recapitulation; these are the stages though which human beings have passed through.

So within a human mother's womb, in which process of recapitulation can we see that the shape of a shark appears, or that of a lemur? Where does all that Haeckel mentioned so passionately appear? At which stage of the pregnancy does it appear? Why do these materialistic gentlemen want to stray from what is correct? Why don't they search for the origin of the human being within the same human being? Why are they searching for the human being's origin outside of him? All the laws of Nature exist inside ourselves and if we do not find them within our interior we will never find them outside.

We have then arrived to a very delicate and extremely difficult point. To state that we were a stone, a plant, an animal and finally a human has all been very well settled. But when and how did it happen? Which primary or secondary causes are governed by all of those processes? These are enigmas. If the gentlemen of materialistic anthropology were not so mesmerized by the dogma of Euclid's three-dimensional geometry, then these processes could be easily clarified and everything would be different. Unfortunately, by their own whim, they want all of us to accept what they state as a dogma of faith. They want to have all of us bottled up within such a foundation. This is absurd, as absurd as to want to bottle up universal life or as absurd as to want to pour an ocean into a crystal cup.

dimensions on the Tree of Life (Kabbalah)The Fourth Coordinate, the Fourth Vertical, exists, this is undeniable; yet this statement upsets the materialists. Nonetheless, Einstein, who cooperated with the manufacturing of the atomic bomb, accepted the Fourth Dimension. Nobody can deny the Fourth Dimension in mathematics. Yet, the materialistic people of this day and age cannot accept the Fourth Dimension, not even when it has been mathematically proven that other superior dimensions exist within Nature. They want to be forcefully enclosed within Euclid's tridimensional world. This is why physics is totally stagnant in its advancement due to their absurd disposition. This is the hour in which cosmic ships capable of traveling throughout the infinite should exist; yet, such longing is not possible while physics continues to be bottled up within Euclid's tridimensional dogma.

These gentlemen have not been capable of answering the question of how and when (on which date) the origin of the human being occurred; so, if they would accept the possibility of the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Dimensions, then everything would be different. Yet, we are sure that they will never accept this. Why? It is because their minds are in the process of complete degeneration due to sexual abuse. Therefore, under these conditions, it is not possible for them to comprehend the thesis that we are stating here. If they want to understand it, they need to begin to regenerate their brain; thus, this will be the way for them to accept our Gnostic postulations.

Stone, plant, animal and human being: behold here the foundation for serious anthropology. Now, let us think about the former state of the human, about our legitimate ancestors. Unquestionably, we will find them in animal life in Nature but located in the Fourth Dimension. This statement is distressing for the materialists. Nonetheless, they are the same materialists who were laughing at Louis Pasteur and his theories, who mocked him when he was disinfecting surgical utensils. They never believed in microorganisms because they were not able to see them, yet now they accept them.

Can animal life exist within the Fourth Coordinate? Yes, of course it exists. Could a system of corroboration exist? Obviously yes, yet the methods are very different to those of false science (which is found in a retarded state). Who has those processes and systems? We have them and will we gladly teach them to everyone who truly wants to investigate the field of pure science.

Did animal life exist within the Fourth Coordinate? Yes, it logically did. Did vegetal life exist in the Fifth Coordinate? Yes, naturally it did. Did mineral life exist in the Sixth Coordinate? Yes it did. Yet, I clarify that the mineral life of the Sixth Coordinate, the vegetal life of the Fifth and the animal life of the Fourth were not in any way similar to the animal, vegetal and mineral life of this merely physical world. The animal, vegetal and mineral life of the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth coordinates came to condense itself here in this tridimensional terrestrial globe, we do not deny it; yet this happened throughout the course of millions of years.

How can we in any way define the evolving processes if we eliminate from Nature that subject-matter stated by Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz? We are referring to the Monads or Jivas, Intelligent Principles of Nature. Certainly, a whole abyss interposes between the atomic Monera of Haeckel and the Zaristripa of Manu, the Jiva of the Hindustani or the Monad of Leibniz. This is because the atomic Monera of Haeckel is very far from the true Monad or Principle of life.

It is true, no lie, for certain, that the virginal sparks or, simply put, Leibniz's Monads, evolved within the mineral kingdom during the epoch of great activity of the Sixth Dimension. These Monads evolved likewise within the vegetal kingdom in the Fifth Dimension and finally they advanced to the animal state in the Fourth Dimension. This is unquestionable.

These dimensions from Nature will be seen in the future through the use of some devices of high optical pressure. Yet, until that day arrives, we can be sure that we, the Gnostic anthropologists, must tolerate the same mockery which Pasteur endured when he was talking about microbes. However, the moment will arrive in which those dimensions will be perceptible by means of television sets; then the satires will end.

Meanwhile, (as we speak) experiments are being performed in order to try and transform sound waves into images. When this occurs, all of the evolving and devolving processes of Nature will be seen. Then the Antichrist of false science will remain naked in front of the solemn verdict of public Consciousness.

In regards to the human organism, we see that in the beginning it is invisible; that is, the ovum and sperm cannot be seen with a simple glance (when the process of gestation begins, when the primeval cell begins to germinate). Who would suppose that a creature could emerge from one spermatozoon and one fertilized cell? Can this be seen by a simple glance? Thanks to the microscope we know that it exists; this is obvious.

Thus, by establishing facts we can state that the Monads who passed through the mineral kingdom in the Sixth Dimension are the same ones who passed through the vegetal kingdom in the Fifth Dimension and through the animal kingdom in the Fourth Dimension. It was precisely at the end of the Fourth Dimension when a certain creature similar to an anthropoid (from the Greek anthropoeides: "with a human shape") appeared. Nonetheless, this creature was not a gorilla, a chimpanzee or anything of the sort.

It was when the epoch of activity for this tridimensional world started that such a creature (as well as the planet Earth) suffered some changes and various metamorphoses. Finally, the human figure crystallized.

We have to take into account that the morphology of all human creatures (as well as of Nature) are changing with the passing of the centuries. Unquestionably, human morphology emerged in accordance with the Protoplasmic Age of our Earth in order to really come into existence. Then, afterwards it passed through the Hyperborean, Lemurian and Atlantean periods, alternating itself a little until reaching our present day.

The creatures, the human beings, the ancient human races which preceded us, were giants who slowly over time lessened in stature until becoming what we presently are (this is all stated by traditions of ancient Mexico and by other countries on Earth).

We will continue by explaining about the four steps: mineral, vegetal, animal and human (exclusively within the tridimensional zone of Euclid, on this physical planet Earth).

So, materialistic anthropology failed to give us the how, when and why the first human being appeared. I know for sure, I am absolutely positive (after having delved very deeply into these matters) that for them (the materialistic anthropologists) all of these statements will become new enigmas without any solution.

Therefore, at the present time, the scientists have no other choice but to accept the crude reality of the Superior Dimensions of Nature and the Cosmos. They may deny them, since they have the right to deny them. They might laugh, however we have already stated many times, "The one who laughs at what he does not know is an ignoramus who walks on the path of idiocy."

So, while time elapses, materialistic science will become naked in front of the new discoveries and each day it will sink more and more within the well of its own ignorance.

Indeed, the theory of Pithecus-Noah with his three bastard sons, namely the Cyanocephalus with tail, the monkey without a tail and the arboreal man, are very good material for Moliére and his caricatures. Indeed, we do not have within our blood anything of pithecoids. For us, facts speak for themselves.

Quote of the Moment

"In the public circle there are thousands of schools, books, sects, contradictions, theories, etc., a labyrinth which only the strongest leave. Really, all of those schools are useful. We find grains of truth in all of them. All religions are holy and divine, all of them are necessary. Nevertheless, the secret path is only found by the strongest. Infrasexual people mortally hate this path. They feel more perfect than the Third Logos. These people will never be able to find the secret path, the path of the razor's edge. The secret path is sex. Through this straight, narrow, and difficult path we reach the esoteric circle, the sanctum regnum Dei, magis regnum."
