...In the Beginning Chakraburtty “ ... in The Beginning” is a historical ‘story’ spanning through Time and Space before and after the birth of Jesus. It is History of the Piscean Age of Kaliyuga when the Common Mind of Humanity of planet Earth was far away from the Light of the Sun. It was a Time of Moral Blindness when nobody could tell right from wrong. It was a Space that refused to be filled with “the right thing to do”.

Each could not be acknowledged personally. Sources were named throughout the book. To each we offer our deepest gratitude. Tides of History and Civilizations rose and faded through a succession of Light and Darkness. The last 2400 years was about blindness and cosmic delusion in humankind distanced from the Light of Universal Intelligence. The period needed a review, even if some opinions cited seemed wild and unfeasible. The story is not an indictment against humanity. Enduring oligarchy of many centuries has now triggered a Youth Uprising in almost all continents of the planet with a Universal Cry: “Enough is Enough”!

Defining Essentials of Time Cycles 429 Introducing Time Cycles Knowledge is a tree that goes and comes through Time Cycles. A tree took birth from a male and female seed to become one, only to divide into two (science and spirituality) and cause a whole Tree of Life. The Cycle of Creation goes through four cycles or ages or yugas every 24,000 years. The Age of Gemini (6000–4000 BC) or Dwapara Yuga corresponded to the flourishing period of early Hinduism. It was under this sign that Rama, the seventh incarnation of Vishnu manifested with the birth of two pairs of brothers: Rama and Lakshmana on the one hand, and Satrughna and Bharata on the other. Rama had twin sons: Lav and Kush (in harmony with the name of the constellation where the Sun was then.) Lav went to Russia and from him came the name Slav. The other son, Kush went to China and from him comes the name Kushan. These two divine principles reincarnated as Buddha and Mahavira, and again as Adi Shankaracharya and Gnyaneshwara. In other avatars, they were Hassan and Hussein, the sons of Fatima and Hazrat Ali. Rama incarnated during the Dwapara Yuga when the fourth chakra (Adi Anahata) was open in Virata. Anahata was always an important centre of the human being since it was here (on the left side, at the heart level) where the individual Spirit or the Self stays. “For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be” Jesus said (Luke 12:34). The Age of Taurus (4000–2000 BC) corresponded to the age of Krishna, the eighth avatar, and the lord of the cows (Govinda). The age stayed under the sign of the bull (Apis or sacred bull Mnevis of Heliopolis, identified to Ra), of the holy cow (Hathor in Egypt, surahbhi or Kamadhenu in India and perhaps worshipped in many spiritual cultures); or the golden calf in the polytheistic beliefs (Exodus 32:4), preceding the Judaic monotheism. Krishna was said to have lived at the end of Dwapara Yuga considered by some to have ended in the year 3102 BC (Zimmer). According to ‘La Grande Encyclopaedia’, H Lamirault et Co., Paris, vol. 21, p. 647, Krishna lived in the fourth millennium BC. During his time, the fifth chakra (Vishuddha) of the Cosmic Being gave humanity spiritual and intellectual insight. The Age of Aries (2000–1 BC) was characterized by establishing monotheistic Judaism through great spiritual personalities like the biblical Abraham of the 19th century BC and known as the Egyptian Djehuty and Moses of the 13th century BC. This period was dominated by manifestations of a spiritual master with universal belief (Adi Guru Dattatreya). Even before the Christian era, Zarathustra incarnated in the 6th or 7th or even 10th century BC. According to some opinions Confucius and Lao-Tse (6th century BC), Socrates (5th century 1 2 In the Beginning BC), and the great Jewish prophets Moses and Isaiah, Ezekiel and Elijah were also Masters to guide these eras. The symbol of ram (Passover lamb) appeared as an object of sacrifice instead of worship. This was a reaction against the belief of the previous age. That was again illustrated by the cult of Mithra (Sun) who stabbed the mythological bull. The Age of Aquarius translated as “the one about the time when Jupiter aligns with Mars. There was more to it than that, as Jupiter and Mars aligned fairly often. What was found remarkable about this present epoch was the powerful change that would sweep through our world. This shift in mood, action and purpose was already obvious. The estimated start date was thought to be sometime around the start of this millennium, but, though its exact start date was contested even among astrologers, astronomers, theologians and others. The effects of the Age of Aquarius have already been felt. The next 300 years should bring a progressive metamorphosis towards a long awaited Golden Age that blossoms and flourishes. History of Humanity and the Planet in Secret Doctrine The history of humanity, from earliest times to the present, excluded known human and nonhuman actors. Vague historical accounts and geological records of the natural world were assumed to have affected human lives. Written records from ancient times and archaeology from several sites on Earth created an unfinished imagined communication about an envisaged Non-knowledge, of thoughts detached from proven facts. It was assumed the roots of civilization reached to periods before symbols of writing took form in humanity’s prehistory. Could there be any veracity in these assumptions? Human prehistory began in the Palaeolithic Early Stone Age. During the Neolithic New Stone Age, between 8000 and 5000 BC, the Agricultural Revolution in the Fertile Crescent (Mesopotamia) was the period in which history states that humans began farming plants and raising animals. Agriculture then spread to neighbouring regions but eventually developed independently elsewhere, until humanity lived as farmers in permanent settlements of communal living all over the planet. However, was it true that this all began in Mesopotamia? The ‘Secret Doctrine’, by Blavatsky, reviewed old knowledge and her findings were currently supported by many scientific findings. Facts that she channelled into the book predated the Mayan Calendar dating back to at least the 5th century BC. These stated that it took hundreds of thousands of years for Lemurian-Atlanteans (3rd sub race) to be outmoded by the Atlanteans (4th Root Race). Tens of thousands of years were needed to change humanity into Aryans (5th Root Race) from the pure Atlantean physical stock. This 5th Root Race included the ancient Indo-Aryans, old North Africans, ancient Persians, the northern and southern Celts (including the ancient Greeks and later Romans) and included the Euro-Americans. It had been told that present-day humanity Introducing Time Cycles 3 was the final sub race of this 5th Race, but peoples of the Earth, were changing with qualities of a typical 6th Root Race. Blavatsky asserted the physical incarnation of the world as Gaia took place long ago. She promoted an idea of the Earth as an integrated whole, a living being. The mythical Gaia was the primal Greek goddess personifying Earth, the Greek version of “Nature,” or “Earth Mother”. Gaia, the primitive Earth-goddess, claimed all organisms and their inorganic surroundings on Earth were closely integrated to form a single and self-regulating complex, upholding the conditions for life on the planet. She, through a Cosmic Connection, had linked herself with every one of the four stages in each cycle of history or Yuga. Mahayugas, earth and humanity displayed repeatedly after every Mahapralaya. According to the Hindu units of measurement, the cycle of creation- dissolution repeated itself for 1000 cycles of yugas in one day of the Creator. Each cycle was of four yugas and one Mahayuga is 4.32 billion solar years. The first appearance of Lemuria was perhaps about 3 million years ago. That made the notion of Ages insignificant given there had been about 115 circumpolar 26,000-year Ages since then. The origin and development of the cosmos (Cosmogenesis) and the scientific study of the origin and development of humans (Anthropogenesis) were the specific subjects of the Secret Doctrine. It outlined how the Earth and its life forms, as well as human evolution, came into existence. It had been translated from old Journals originating beyond time.
