Absolute Justice, Kindness and Kinship — Page 20
The Three Creative Principles Defined 19 Having been trained and cultivated over billions of years of evolution, the question now arises as to what should be the next destination, if any, for man in this journey of evolution? Has it come to an end? Or is it an ongoing process set in an eternal motion? Common sense requires that if human beings attained such marvellous progress through the blessings of justice over this period, then the converse should also be true, i. e. negation of justice should be instrumental in reversing man’s direction and making him retrace his steps to the earliest rudimentary stages of life. Of course, the physical development of man will not be reversed. But in his intellectual and moral state, and in the perfection of his five faculties, it is possible that he should revert to a subhuman level of attitudes and become so perverted that he reaches a stage of beastlike behaviour. The second scenario deals with options open to man once he is carried to the summit of evolutionary progress. If he displays wisdom enough to draw his lessons from his own evolution and if he realises that in essence he is the fruit of absolute justice in operation through the billions of years of evolution, then he will chart a course for himself which will never disregard the dictates of justice. In this case his evolution would not come to a halt. It would continue to move forward slowly but constantly, raising man from lower human orders to higher human orders. The only difference between this and the previous
