The New Man is Emerging

B. Code (bcode)

Background
It was 31st December, 2000AD. Our Urdu editor, Ashfaq Hussain, invited his friend to place a Message on the Message Board of one of the web-sites. The Message was duly placed. It read:
Greetings of the New Millennium to you!
Will the New Century be just as barbarian?
Will poverty, hunger and starvation go-on?
Will wretchedness, wars and vanity continue?
Will illiteracy, unemployment and prostitution pervade?
Will racism, regionalism and nationalism dominate?
Will depravity, perversion and insanity thrive?
Will frustrations and tensions snap minds’ strings?
....
Answer! Answer!
Answer, O Human Hearts!
Answer, O Minds’ Potential!
Answer, O Human Calibre!
Answer, O Souls’ Valour!....
Greetings of the New Millennium to You!

In response to the above questions came B. Code (bcode) with the following:

The New Man is Emerging
The image of the new man is not yet clear, but the horizon is becoming red and the sun will soon appear. The morning mist is there and the image of the new man is vague, but still a few things are crystal clear about the new man.

And this is of tremendous importance because ever since the monkey became man, man has remained the same. A great revolution now is on the way. It will be far more deep-going than the revolution that took place when monkeys started walking on the earth and became human beings. That change created mind; that change brought psychology in. Now another, far more significant change is going to occur that will bring the soul in, and man will not only be a psychological being but a spiritual being too.
You are living in one of the most live times ever.

The new man has already arrived in fragments, but only in the fragments. And the new man has been arriving for centuries, but only here and there. That’s how things happen. When the spring comes, it starts with one flower. But when the first flower is there, you can be certain: The Spring is not far away—it has come!
The first flowers have heralded its coming: Moses, Zoroaster, Krishna, Lao Tzu, Confucius, Buddha, Jesus... these were the first flowers. Now the new man is going to be born on a greater scale.

This new consciousness is the most important thing that is happening today. I would like to tell you something about this new consciousness, its orientations, and its characteristics, because you are to help it come out of the womb—because you have to be it. The new man cannot come from nowhere; he has to come through you. The new man can only be born through your womb. You have to become the womb.
It cannot be prevented now, because it is not only the question of the new man’s coming into existence, it is a question of the survival of the whole earth, of consciousness itself, of life itself. It is a question of life and death. The old man has come to utter destructiveness. The old man has reached the end of his tether. Now there is no life possible with the old concept of man. The old man is preparing for a global suicide. The old man is piling up atom bombs, hydrogen bombs, in order to commit a collective suicide. This is a very unconscious desire.
Rather than allowing the new man to be, the old man would like to destroy the whole thing.
You have to understand: You have to protect the new, because the new carries the whole future with it. And man has come to a stage where a great quantum leap is not only possible but necessary too...

The new man will have to find new forms of community, of closeness, of intimacy, of shared purpose, because the old society is not going to disappear immediately. It will linger, it will put up all kinds of resistance to the new society—as it always happens. It has so many vested interests, it cannot go easily. It will go only when it becomes impossible for it to remain in existence.

Before it goes, the new man will have to create new kinds of communes, new kinds of families, new communities of closeness, intimacy, shared purpose...
Now you can understand why the orthodox mind is against me. I am preparing their graveyard, and I am preparing for something new. I am preparing a garden for the new. You are to open your hearts for the new. Uproot all the weeds of the old, drop all the conditionings that the old has given to you, so that you can receive the new!
I teach a new man, a new humanity, a new concept of being in the world. I proclaim Homo-novus. The old man is dying, and there is no need to help it survive any more. The old man is on the deathbed: don’t mourn for it—help it to die. Because only with the death of the old can the new be born. The cessation of the old is the beginning of the new.
My message to humanity is the new man. Less than that won’t do. Not something modified, not something continuous with the past, but utterly discontinuous.

Man has lived up to now not truly, not authentically; man has lived a very pseudo life. Man has lived pathetically; man has lived in a great pathological state. And there is no need to live in this pathological state—we can come out of the prison, because the prison is made by our own hands. We are in the dungeon because we have decided to be in it—because we have believed that the prison is not a prison but our home.

My message to humanity is: Enough is enough. Awake! See what man has done to man himself. In three thousand years, man has fought five thousand wars. You cannot call this humanity healthy. And only once in a while has a flower bloomed. If in the garden only once in a while a plant brings a flower, and otherwise the whole garden remains barren, will you call that a garden? Something very basic has gone wrong.

Each person is born to be enlightened; less than that is not going to fulfill you.
When I say the new man, I mean the conscious man. Humanity cannot be saved if the conscious man does not arrive. In the past, it was not so necessary; but now it is absolutely necessary; it is a must. If the new man does not arrive on the earth, if more and more people are not going to become conscious, alert, awake, then this earth is doomed. Its fate is in the hands of the stupid politicians, and now they have immense power of destruction, such as they never had before. That is something new.

Just a few years ago they had so much power that they could kill every single human being seven times—although you don’t need to kill any human being seven times; once is enough. There was as much atomic energy—atom bombs, hydrogen bombs, etc.—that this earth could be destroyed seven times. And within a few years we have really progressed—now it is seven hundred times! Seven hundred earths like ours can be completely devastated now; and the process of piling up the means of life’s annihilation is ever on... Any moment, any mad politician can trigger the process of self-destruction.

The coming twenty years are going to be the most dangerous in the whole history of humanity; it has never been so dangerous—we are sitting on a volcano.
Only more consciousness, more alertness can save us; there isn’t any other way. We have to deautomatize man. The society automatizes you. It creates efficient machines, not human beings.

My effort here is to deautomatize you. I am doing something absolutely antisocial. The society makes you a machine and my effort is to undo that. I would like this fire to spread and reach all the nooks and corners of the earth, to help as many people as possible to be conscious. If consciousness multiplies on the earth in a great quantity, there is a possibility, a hope, we can save humanity yet. All is not lost; but time is running short. Everything is being controlled by politicians and by computers, and both are dangerous. Politicians are mad. It is impossible to be a politician if you are not mad enough. You have to be absolutely insane, because only insane people are power-obsessed.

A sane person lives life joyously; he is not power-obsessed. He may be interested in music, in singing, in dancing, but he is not interested in dominating anybody. He may be interested in becoming a master of himself, but he is not interested in becoming a master of others.
Politicians are insane people. History is enough proof of this fact....
Now machines and mad people are dominating the whole world. We have to change the very foundation. That’s what I mean by the new man...
