Recovering Memory
|
The most important aspect of the legend of Akhnaton (Trismegistus, Hermetica, Asclepius, Esculape) is Medicine. For many centuries Medicine has been considering individuals and only in a very minor extent collective hygiene. But when human knowledge precipitates as today, suddenly the barreer between individual health and environmental interference is broken down. In this new situation, with supor, we realize that we have no medicine for human groups. It may be a desastrous lack.
Fortunately,
a better understanding of the past corrects this apprehension: Archeology
and History reveal that until 1600AD, Hermetism supported
the three levels of health: physical, psychological and sociological. Is
it a practical resource after four centuries of oblivium? Perhaps is it
unsufficient for overcoming the terrible confusion that politics has caused
in place of medicine. On the other hand, when the healing forces of realism
and science combine with recovered memory, it draws a powerful drive. As
a matter of fact, Atonism (the motive of Akhnaton) is such opportunity for
a unified consciouness on Earth.
An excellent book from Savitri Devy - a Western writer who was living in
India - helps in showing that Eastern and Asiatic culture are to welcome
Atonism, and since the Western world is now rediscovering it as its Primal
Scene, there is a dramatic possibility for a commun ground.
This opportunity is the base for a medicine of human groups & individuals. Atonism was a genuine scientific ecological project based on the union of plurality (Atonism culminated at the peak of the egyptian extension over the Ancient World). Akhnaton's project was already superseding politics, though in its time it has been defeated by politics. Today's situation is different with new technologies, but the union opportunity is the same. It took the entire 20th century for understanding and disclosing the role of Akhnaton and his city Amarna - at long last the mystery unfolds. This is what the reader may enjoy from this site, which is one of the first academic work to be published without intermediary, directly on the web, as a symbol of this new occasion of world gathering.
