When the Women's Mysteries were banned and the natural dualism of the Yin and Yang was replaced by patriarchal dualism, the world chose to believe in male-dominated Religions and to reject the ages-old veneration of the Great Mother.

The Goddess, Women, Animals and Nature were now to function as a means to an end towards mankind's competitive quest for greater wealth, more resources and power over the lives of others.

All of the sacred animals, the trees and the waters were now to be seen as dangerous and hostile towards the new order. After all, all of Nature was now to live in fear and dread of the new patriarchal man and his subservient women's desires, according to the Bible. 

Man was to be fruitful and multiply, and contraceptive measures and all of the ancient teachings of the Priestesses relating to women's health, gestation, menstrual and fertility were reclassified as 'evil witchery'. 

The Church wanted to dominate the world by numbers, and so Catholics and patriarchs in general were taught that the more children they had, the better. There were more soldiers to fight wars over resources with for one thing.

A resurgence of the ancestral Nature cults had to be suppressed within society at all costs. The Church took control of the schools, the governments and media, and had the law on their side when they forcibly destroyed indigenous Pagan spirituality.

 All of the schools were now to indoctrinate generations of children with patriarchal, fear-based values cloaked in love, and all over the world, people soon became to believe in all of the lies.

As the opposition to the enemies of Mother Nature was wiped out or went underground to avoid further persecution, so the new values of the Church took hold on the psyches of men. Warfare became ever more commonplace, and by the 1800's the stage was set for an industrial revolution, with rapid industrial development powered by non-renewable natural resources and employing polluting, harmful technology. 

The population of the world soared and as a result, even more demand was placed on Nature to supply the increasing needs and wants of man and competition between men increased proportionately with conflict over the ever-dwindling resources of the planet. 

As woman, the goddess on Earth was diminished in value and the Goddess was rejected, a severe imbalance became to grow apparent in the world within and without. This imbalance, caused by parochial teachings, is the reason why the planet is now facing disaster. 

The Masters told them so, but they just wouldn't listen.

"Those who try to control,

who use force to protect their power,

go against the direction of the Tao.(Great Mother)

They take from those

who don't have enough

and give to those

who have far too much.

In harmony with the Tao,

the sky is clear and spacious,

the Earth is solid and full,

all creatures flourish together,

content with the way they are,

endlessly repeating themselves,

endlessly renewed.

When man interferes with the Tao,

the sky becomes filthy,

the equilibrium crumbles,

creatures become extinct."

~ Laozi

They Tell The Same Story

There are just three things to teach today.

One, it never pays to scorn a woman nor her Goddess

Two, that patriarchal dualism leads to imbalance and disaster within and without

Three, that everything sent out to others always rebounds back on the sender. You know, he who restricts ends up being restricted himself, he who burns ends up in a frying pan of his own making and that kind o' thing.
