LaRouche: Mankind Must Change the Behavior of the Universe As Such

Taking stock of the significant strategic advances achieved planet-wide in the recent period, and of the crucial conceptual strides that still remain unrealized, Lyndon LaRouche on Sunday told associates that “what’s happening now is, to a large degree, progress, but it’s not conclusive…. We are making progress, but this kind of progress does not satisfy the requirements of Mankind…. The question is, what Mankind can do to change the behavior of the universe as such.”

LaRouche’s in-depth discussion, as laid out below, is critical to meeting the challenges Mankind currently faces.

The week ended with another devastating defeat of Obama, this time of his British free trade policies at the APEC summit in Lima, Peru, as the global center of gravity shifts to the successful initiatives undertaken by China and Russia. Where we now stand, Helga Zepp-LaRouche told associates, is that “I think we are witnessing a continuation of the very rapid dynamic which has been dominant for the last two and a half months, or a little bit more, starting with the Vladivostok meeting; the integration of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) and the One Belt, One Road; the continuation of that in the G20 Hangzhou meeting; then the ASEAN meeting in Laos; followed by the BRICS conference in Goa, India in October; and now the APEC meeting in Lima, Peru.

“What is very clear is that the center of gravity and power has fully shifted to this dynamic, especially the integration of the policies of China and Russia.  And what goes along with that, is a continuous explosion of infrastructure and other development projects which, if you take them as a totality, are really a breathtaking dynamic which unfolded with an increasing speed in the last three years.

“And that is definitely the power center of the world right now, because it is very clear that the trans-Atlantic establishments are completely incapable of understanding that their model of globalization and neo-liberal distribution of wealth from the poor to the rich, has completely failed. And they are neither able to predict developments, nor can they cope with the consequences of such things as the Brexit or the Trump vote.”

But the immediate challenge before us—of using the political tidal wave sweeping the United States, as expressed in the Presidential election, to finally bring the U.S. on board to the World Land-Bridge New Paradigm—requires recognizing and addressing a much more profound question. In his discussion with associates, LaRouche stated in part:

“I know that what we’re doing now, while it looks brilliant, in many cases, is not really that good…. Because if we don’t see these higher considerations which people try to overlook — saying ‘we’ll reach that later, we’ll come to that, don’t push yourself too much’ — that’s what I’m concerned about

“It’s the Einstein principle, which is a good measure, a good standard, to see what this problem is….

“What we’ve come to in this change that’s hitting now, we’re hitting probably a mistaken confidence. That doesn’t mean we’re doing something bad as such, but it means we have not really captured what the principle is, on which the future of mankind depends….

“The question is the intrinsic nature of mankind, which Einstein did grasp in certain of his scientific operations.  He did!  And that is what we’ve lost.  We turned away from that kind of conception and decided to come up with a more economical approach, a more practical approach and economical approach….

“We’ve done some good things.  We’ve improved the class for Mankind in general, the classes for Mankind in general, on the basis of certain projects, on certain things.  But we have lost the question of what is the meaning of the existence of the human individual. That is, what is the nature of the actual existence, of the possibility of the human individual?…

“What we’re doing is good, in large part; in certain parts of the world and in certain parts of aspects of life.  But it’s not what mankind actually needs.  Mankind needs to know what the reason is, for human beings, human individuals, something which is never understandable by merely mortal people, who look at themselves in some category like that….

“What is the meaning, what is the intrinsic meaning, of a human being? Of the existence of any human being?  Or all human beings?

“And what’s happening now is, to a large degree, progress, but it’s not conclusive….

“What you’re looking at is, what is the nature of creation. The question is, what is the fundamental purpose of the human being? What is the nature of Mankind as a universal thing? The universe is organized and therefore you have to think about a universe which is intrinsically organized. Not practically organized, but intrinsically organized….

“People don’t know what makes the universe work. What is the characteristic of humanity, that makes it superior to every thing we know about all kinds of animals….

“We are making progress, but this kind of progress does not satisfy the requirements of Mankind. There is something in the universe that is controlling and defining what the universe means as a mission.

“What makes the universe do what it does for the function of Mankind as such? The question is, what mankind can do to change the behavior of the universe as such.”
