Primitive Human Society and the Modern Society: Should We Seek and Stick to Our Past?

Some time ago I wrote the adapted history of the first humans who got in to existence on earth in BC 991474. 

That was a piece of history hitherto unknown to modern humans. Fortunately, it got revealed to us by the efforts of some of our celestial supervisors (difficult to believe, is n't it?)  and is now in the public domain in the form of my favorite book of life guidance, the Urantia Book.

In today's blog, I would like to tell you about some of the early factors that paved the way for development of civilization in the primitive society. It is not my invention. It is the facts and conclusions deduced by our unseen divine supervisors.

The descendants of the first pair of humans-Andon and Fonta-soon multiplied on earth to form the first human race whom we now should call as the Andonites. 

The primitive Andonite human society developed in to four major divisions of primitive organizations essentially dealing with livelihood (industry), law and order (regulative governance), worship (primitive religions) and power (military). These divisions developed as a result of the primitive human learning in the use of fire, animals, slaves and property. 

The first invention or discovery ever made by human beings was fire. 

In fact, fire was the first human discovery ever made and it was by none other than the first man on earth whom we call now as Andon. Andon and his twin sister turned wife, got curious with the sparkling that got produced when flint stones were struck together and later got an inflammable bird's nest to kindle fire from their spark producing flint stones. They learnt how to preserve their fire by keen and curious experimentation.

The discovery and the art of producing and preserving fire forever separated man from their animal cousins. Fire helped humans to stay on ground rather than living on trees, because fire scared the wild animals and humans soon realized it.

Andon, the discoverer of fire, did not treat it as an object for worship. But his later generations began to treat the flame as ghosts and gods. Early myths of fire as originating from the gods developed as humans observed the natural phenomena of lightning and caused the early humans to resort to fire worship. Fire worship later led to the custom of walking through fire.

Fire myth continued as a great bonding force among humans and remnants of that persist even in the modern society of humans.

Fire caused ancient humans to taste cooked food and later develop the culture of cooking. Cooked food caused humans to save internal energy needed for digestion and provided the early man the strength for social culture.

Learning the art of domestication of animals reduced the efforts required for securing food by the early humans. This also helped them to have time for social activities.

Dog was the first animal to be domesticated by humans and it happened accidentally when a wild dog following a primitive hunter followed him and became a member of his household.

When the primitive humans were hunters, they were relatively kind and considerate to their women. But after the domestication of animals, many primitive human tribes began to treat their women shamefully bad. 

Earthly man's brutal treatment of women was perhaps one of the darkest events of history in human progress. Women became the first objects of slavery adopted by primitive humans. Later it progressed to the practice of enslavement of other tribes who lost in the primitive tribal warfare.

Primitive hunters never enslaved other humans. They either adopted or killed their captives. But when the primitive man learnt the techniques of animal domestication and the art of farming, slavery progressed.

Slavery became an indispensable link in the human history of civilization and progress.

Slavery compelled the backward type of humans to work and provide the necessities and leisure for those of their fellows who were superior in mind and body.

Slavery also caused humans to invent systems of government.

Slavery was oppressive, but this oppression forced man to learn more on production and industry.

In the modern world, social slavery has almost declined. But over ambition and other factors are enslaving more and more modern people to industrial servitude of their own choice.

Slavery and domestication of animals have declined in the modern era. But modern humans are going back to seek wealth and power from the elemental store house of earth through fire!

Primitive society was essentially communal. But modern man is seeking the development of private property and wealth. 

But it is important to remember this. None of the social orders of progress as happening within the human society are sacred or divine. They are the outcome of the thoughts and acts of humans beings. The social orders that humans have developed so far through experimentation and by their own thoughts may not be right always. 

But it would definitely be better when people change and seek better solutions when they find better alternatives to some of their older cultures and systems.

It is not a recommended thing to experiment and revert back to the discarded practices and cultures of the ancestors under the false impression that old is gold. 

Divine mandate for humans is to go forward and not backward.

It is not a wise thing to stop human progress and the dynamism of human thoughts.

Human beings would do a much better thing by adopting better and better progressive ideas!

Origin and Development of Human Beings on Earth-Have You Ever Heard This ?

Many people now-a-days use search engines like google to find the answer to questions like " who was the first human being on earth ?" , " when did humans originate on earth ?", " Were Adam and Eve the first human beings on earth ?" , " Did man evolve from apes ?" , etc., etc.

This curiosity is quite understandable. But when you check up with the answers they get, it often would be a great disappointment.

But let me tell you a secret. There is a super authentic information now available to us in the form of a huge english language book. A book of revelatory knowledge given to human kind from superior sources !

Let me first tell you in brief what this book reveals about the first human beings of earth. This is some thing like this :

The first human beings ever to be born on Earth were a pair of Twins, one a boy and the other a girl, born to a pre-human ape family. That means their parents were not humans, but a lemur type tree living animals, now extinct.

The twins were different from their parents, in the sense that there was a modification done in their genes while their embryos were developing. And this modification was carried out by an invisible but intelligent agency of God, the Prime Source of all Powers and Intelligences in the Universe, with due approvals from the latter.

This modification caused them to be different from their parents. The boy and the girl both possessed 'certain' superior biological qualities that enabled their brains to receive certain special inputs and mind capacities from the agencies of God. This brain capacity allowed them to receive certain invisible spirit powers to make contact with their minds, though feebly. Most importantly, they inherently got the capacity to feebly sense the invisible presence of God and a feeble compulsion to 'worship' their invisible Creator.

Though they never knew their names, they were registered in the records of the Universe Creators by some name which had some meaning.

It has been now revealed for the first time that we can refer their names as Andon and Fonta. 

Andon and Fonta called each other in their own primitive language as 'Sonta-an' and 'Sonta-en' which for them meant ' One loved by mother' and 'One loved by father'.

This pair was the actual parents of all human beings.

They were indeed a remarkable and wonderful pair with many qualities that never existed in their parents nor in many of their desendants in the later years.

In fact, Andon and Fonta were eleven years of age, when they got the special gift from God, a power that was able to be induced in their brains, which made them human like. This power actually gave them the inherent capacity to judge right and wrong and a desire for perfection.

So this first pair of human beings got into existence on earth in B C 991474. A few thousand years less than a million years from now !

The first human race came into existence through biologic evolution, not automatic evolution, but controlled evolution. Control exercised by the agencies of God.

The first human couple were born in a place on the north western high lands of the Indian peninsula.

As young ones these twins lived with their ape parents on their shelter made on a tree top, as their ape parents were tree dwellers.

But soon they got the human qualities, they began to realize that they were different from others in their group. They had less hair on their bodies than the others and they walked upright on their hind legs unlike their parents who did like that only occassionally. They were about five feet tall and had bigger heads than others.

More importantly they had much superior and intelligent minds ! They possessed human certain human personality traits !

So one day this twins fled from their parents' group- this particular group of ancient tree dwelling Indian apes. When they separated from their group they were about fourteen years of age.

This happened after 21000 years after the dawn mammals appeared on earth created from other animal species by the process of 'controlled evolution'.

The twins moved northward and soon learned to make caves as their homes than tree tops.

Their intelligent and curious minds soon learnt to make fire from flint stones, though with a few months observation and consistent efforts. They also made use of the flint stones to make their crude weapons.

Two years after fleeing from their primate family, a child was born to the twins.

It was a boy. They called him 'Sontad'.

Sontad was the first human child ever born on earth to be to be covered with protective coverings at the time of birth. Fonta developed the instinct of caring for her helpless infant child till he is grown up.

Andon and Fonta had nineteen children in all.

Sontad took his younger sister as his mate. So also the others. In all the first human family grew in to a clan with fifty odd grandchildren and half a dozen great grandchildrenby the time Andon and Fonta became forty two years of age.

Andon and Fonta and a few of their family died when a rock fell on them during an earth quake.

Sontad, though injured, survived and took the leadership of this first human family.

Primitive man of earth grew and developed from them.

Since they originated from Andon, let us call this primitive men, Andonites.

Andonites had an swarthy complexion, more or less similar to the Eskimos. They had dark eyes. They had more hair on their bodies than modern human beings.

The early Andonites were a wonderful tribe. Their females affectionately protected their children. Their males valiantly protected others in their group from the attacks of wild animals.

They were flesh eaters. But occassionally ate fruits, nuts and tubers.

Until their twenty-seventh generation they had a common leadership.

Afterwards fights broke out in them for supremacy of leadership.

Soon the Adonites began to migrate to other areas on earth in groups. How the Andonites spread on earth in the next thousands of years is another story.

How they got other characteristics and biological features is yet another story.
