Chronicles From The Future: The amazing story of Paul Amadeus Dienach

The noble and well-intentioned aspirations of these first great men were limited to this realisation. That’s as far as their ambitions went. They couldn’t see that there are vast realities, separate and unrelated to the human-inspired religions, worldviews, ideologies and discoveries; they had no idea about them. The new era, the Nojere, showed everyone that it wasn’t reasonable to consider man as a “small, earthly God”. True reality would exist regardless of the contribution of our own species.

I asked him if what we thought back in my day, that is, that in accordance to the anthropocentric version, humans, and more specifically their spirit, are the only species that regards both themselves and the entire universe as an object of observation. Everything else that exists in the natural world, whether animate or inanimate, is always the object of observation and never the subject.

“Do you not even acknowledge this?” I asked.

“Yes, we do. But the current philosophy considers this truth applicable only in the context of our planet, which, as you may have realised, is something minimal compared to the inhabited planets of cosmic space.”

So what do the Aidersians argue? They argue that true objective reality exists independently of the sensory capabilities of each species. Its existence became known to the people of Nojere thanks to the Nibelvirch when they felt direct knowledge coming not from the outside anymore, but from within, if we are to believe Jaeger, Stefan and the rest. Therefore, the Samith

proved to have this indescribable greatness described in the Volkic preaching. Thus, the Oversyn, the “new antenna”, was acquired, and everything that seemed transcendental before, had now been proven to be within the grasp of human capabilities. The scope of the cognitive capabilities of humans expanded, something that allowed the Homo Occidentalis Novus to see the Samith

and accept its existence.

As for the element of spirituality, it doesn’t only exist within humans. It is the wonderful fruit of long-term biological evolution, unrelated to natural forces. The acquisition of this element of spiritual entity is what unites millions of intelligent, rational and emotional beings in the universe. It’s what unites the gifted, by destiny, species that are separated by astronomical distances from one another and which, biologically speaking, differ enormously from one another due to the natural environments in which each developed over millions of years.

Thanks to this element of spirituality, these thinking species, including ours, escape the confines of the nature that surround them and, with the passage of time, gradually enter into other, higher stages of development.

They gave me an incredible description of our species in the depths of time; I felt as if the whole history of humankind flashed before my eyes like a film. At first, they said, we were a simple part of the fauna of this planet. Once we eradicated most of our animalistic instincts, inner life and external culture began to develop. This is when the self-consciousness that now separates us from “the rest of the fauna” made its appearance.

After several stages of biological and spiritual development, humankind began to be possessed by an intense feeling of living in a foreign environment, by an inner need to find answers to its origins, a need that proved to be the source of man’s greatest cultural and intellectual achievements. This thirst of the soul manifested itself through worshipping of invisible forces, capturing the secrets and laws of the physical world, depicting ideal beauty, imposing a moral order that regulates social life and through allowing justice, humanity, liberty and equality to prevail. They argue that the concepts of good defeating evil and morality defeating immorality are innate in humans. And the reason why people suffered was exactly because none of these “innate laws” was kept or respected. That’s why people so impulsively pursued the worldly forms of the Samith; in the finite environment people lived, they dreamed of the infinite...

And when the Nibelvirch came, everyone understood why. Everyone understood where all this nostalgia and faith in something much greater and brighter stemmed from. It explained all the struggle and sacrifices of thousands of people for purposes that had no practical usefulness for them whatsoever. In a nutshell, as I understood it, the source of all spiritual cultures in the history of the earth is none other than the metaphysical, human suffering, the deepest bitterness of the human soul caused by the absence of the Samith in our world. That’s how all the human achievements are interpreted nowadays: as efforts to overcome the barriers of physical nature and redeem the “real people” from this suffocating environment. 17-X
