That's why our age is Kali Yuga, a downfall of spirituality and everything connected to it. Some say we're in a transition period to the next Yuga, which is even worse.But if a true esoteric understanding ever got a foothold in the world, I believe something significant would happen. I could hardly guess what that'd be, but I don't think it'd be a continuation of the status quo.
Any transition is chaotic and bloody. People are stark materialists, politicians are immoral, and the degradation of nature continues - the list is endless.
Yet, the masses bury their heads in the sand. It's easier not to think, believing someone else will figure it out.
This makes us easy to manipulate, which is of course done for financial gain. Kali Yuga indeed!
See how archaeology goes against any real research into the prehistoric past, and how it's backed by big money. They want the status quo to remain for easier governing.100%. Though I'm also a believer that our prehistorical past is probably more astonishing than we realize, and there may have even been a time when authentic spiritual transformation was common.
Who wants to admit that we're not the cream, but the low-quality bottom of a cake? For example, some books on Slavic history were banned and erased from the world.
I'd love to read what Europeans were so afraid of. What about the Library of Alexandria?
What's happening today is nothing new. See how the Taliban destroyed Buddhist monuments in Afghanistan. These countries weren't Muslim at all. They were at the heart of the Buddhist world. Some people came and eradicated their culture. Europeans did the same for most of the world (the Americas, Oceania, Africa).
