Shouldn’t We Be More Advanced Than We Were in Lemuria? Q: I think well, maybe where the conflict of understanding this about being advanced lies on that a great many of the people in Lemuria became Masters. In other words we’re not all way up high and then we all went down. Most of them went up. A: Yes, sort of a continual evolution. All of us started out blank, knowing nothing. And that’s our job, through opportunities to continue to work out our karma—the things we need to balance ourselves incarnation after incarnation. Those are the things that keep moving us forward. But all of us started out zero and some of us has made it to Mastership, and we’re following their clues, and it’s hard for you to know exactly how far you may have evolved. You may have in another lifetime, in another culture which was designed to more readily move persons from, let’s say, childhood through adulthood in a smooth way, without going through all kinds of neurotic responses and diminishing ways of doing things, have been able to get to several of advancement over, you know, however many hundreds upon hundreds of incarnations you’ve gone through, and maybe you’re one of those people who had their arm twisted on the astral plane to come down and help get things moving again to reestablish a civilization where people could more readily move towards the advancement that all of us need to have and want to have. Many of us here, of course, will not be able to enjoy, let’s say, the beginnings of The Nation of God ‘cause we’re going to be too old, but our children and our grandchildren will be the ones who will be able to stand on our shoulders from what we’ve produced and develop that Nation to a much better stage using the Philosophy, since it is in accordance with Natural Law to really get there. But then, you will have someplace really worthwhile to incarnate into later, so, what you’re working on now you can benefit from later. If nobody works on that, nobody bends their efforts to creating that Nation, then there’ll be almost nothing into which we can incarnate for a long period of time. But the Brotherhoods do see that it will become a success culminating in the Golden Age.
