Confraternity of Economies (first outline)
Happiness
is thought to be inattainable like the sun.
The sun is inattainable, because all that comes up to it
would be burnt out.
Everything except Good, which is no
matter but quality Good cannot be burnt.
Through Good man can start a new world
made of small confraternal units, so he can achieve
happiness.
What does economy mean in Confraternity
of Economies? It is neither economists' economy, nor that
of savers, nor the use or administration of material
resources, their market values and trade. It is
economy in the primordial sense, i.e. the art of
managing or administering a society.
And what Confraternity mean? A brotherly confederation
of economies in indeterminate numbers, of which each has
the full possession of its sovereignty, its choices of
collective life, its way of administering itself.
The fragmentation of the big politicized national masses
into small depoliticized economies, which would go merely
self-administered, will not take place soon,. but the
sooner the better, because human beings cannot live in
fraternity, love each other, forgive
each other, make their peaces with all, think intelligently
(Rev of Arès 32/5), set themselves free
(10/10) from all sorts of prejudices, in short, be
penitent, as long as they cannot be
acquainted with each other very well, that is, as
long as they cannot live in small numbers.
I am old, so I will die before I cease to elect a Member
of Parliament or Congressman someone whom I do not know
and who does not give a damn about me, but I firmly expect
that my descendants will live in a different way and
mention politicians as leaders of old, just as
we nowadays talk about satraps of old (Daniel
6/1, Rev of AArès 22/8).
Let's prepare the breakup of the big
nations into small units or economies living in
confraternity(-ies). I think it advisable that a movement
be created to free man from the distorting lens of justice
based on the arbitrary of powers and law, that
express but the unending revenge (Rev of Arès 27/9)
of a part of society on another part, a thousand and one
different feelings of happiness acting against each other,
and all that also keeps man from solving the problems of
conscience, which are tremendously deep, through the justice
of love, notably forgiveness, peace,
freedom, which are drawn on the Sermon on the
Mount by Jesus of Nazareth, a prophet of
spirituality and humanism, but not one of religion and
politics. As man is One (xxiv/1), but in vast
number of natures, the inevitable variations in achieved
love require that the big masses should be broken
up into small self-managed sovereign groups. The efforts
to renew man's freedom (10/10) and dignity
(xxxiv/13, 18/3, 28/15) are to be made in every
circumstance by setting the great flexibility of love
against the increasing rigid formality of the
dominant ideology or doctrinaire approach, which is said
to be democratic, and which is threatening mankind with
paralysis and slavery. We have to shake off dominant
ideologies, which are new religions, and set a liking for
critical research by love, but not by decree.
With time we will keep widening vast efforts to restore
spiritual life.
Every economy will have things in
common with the other economies of its confraternity,
notably
la fraternité qui ne sera pas qu'une fraternité gravée
dans le marbre, mais une réelle fraternité dans l'amour,
the absence of citizenship and the free movement of people
between economies,
the absence of system, whatever, whether political or
religious and its careers and ambitions, which is to be
replaced by managers or coordinators dismissible if
unsatisfactory.
the important choices made by referendum or vote held in
each economy,
union with each other against the common adversay: Evil,
notably lies, prejudices, breaches of love of the
neighbour, forgiveness, peace, freedom.
Prophets with awakened intelligences(Rev
of Arès 32/5), who have been poorly read and
finally misunderstood, Jesus among them, have clearly
talked about the relationship between collective life and
the ideal shared—the Sermon on the Mount (Matthiew
ch. 5 to 7) is the best Design of it
(Rev of Arès 28/7, 36/8)—. All of the prophets
from Noah to Muhammad (2/7-11)
have brought their own societies into question, have gone
beyond seemingly irreducible well structured concepts,
hoarded away in laws and dogmata by the political or
religious jam makers and their "administrations with lead
caps" (Rimbaud).
So far the big problem of evolution, Salvation
therefore, is the huge difference in weight between
on the one side, the masses as if they were made ill with
diabetes and saturnism by the dominant ideology or
doctrinaire approach always much sweetened and leaded, the
mass mankind who are shortsighted even when they think
they see far ahead, and whom power people and the
ambitious exploit,
and on the other side few thoughful skinny humans, real
loving poeple with piercing eyes, who draw on all the
resources of awakened intelligence, and who ride
the nimble colts (10/10) of freedom just as a
few Mongolian riders utterly unexpected did in the 12th
century to conquer the world, that outnumbered them
a-hundred-thousandfold. But this time we as a wretched
host of prophets will peacefully do what looks
unfeasible: a world of souls and love.
For something new has turned up. It might be because He
foresaw it that the Father gave The Revelation of
Arès. Religion a while ago and politics lately have
started stripping off, so they disclose their significant
weakness. Taking refuge behind the known will soon be
no-use to them. Their subjects will have to leave those
mystago-political systems or even hasten the decline of
them, go beyond them and they should think of that beyond
right now, even though it is not likely to happen soon. The Revelation of Arès says that Good, which
has vanished from time immemorial, can revive. Good
is not just a fortunate solution, it is the only solution,
the mainspring of which is penitence, in other words the
observance of love,forgiveness,peace,intelligence spiritual and free from
prejudices. The supporters of the known, the still
numberless supporters of the system, are going to laugh or
be indignant about the Arès pilgrim (Rev of Arès
12/9), who they think is following utopian views,
but they will have more and more difficulties in defending
what is becoming indefensible.
While thinking of the Confraternity of Economies I go
beyond the scope of my prophetic mission, I think of
nothing else but the human fact top-level and the most
noble, because even those who do not believe in me are my
brothers and I do not think that I will succeed in my
prophetic mission, if I fail to aim at getting whole
mankind out of Evil. Religion and politics do not think of
the human fact; they just think of some human beings :
their citizens, their faithful, etc.
It doesn't matter whether that human fact is or is not
very close to religion (Rev of Arès 28/12) or
materialism. Man's most important abiding features are not
those seen beneath the smiling exteriors of material
well-being and/or charitable sanctimoniousness. We have
"to listen to the voice of the wise men in rags" (Jean
Servier), because they alone show us a world, which may
still be utopian, but may well enable man to survive the sin
of sins (Rev of Arès 32/8), with which he is
threatened.
