Yonke into emva kokufa ikamva. I-Inventors. I-Hellas yakudala. Ukuphinda ubekho kumaqela ezizwe. Amaziko empucuko aphumeleleyo. IGrisi, iJiphutha, iIndiya.

Yonke into emva ukufa kwenzeka njenge isiphelo; umntu akanako ukumisela nantoni na emva ukufa. Zinikezwe izifundo, kodwa azinakho ukuzisebenzisa ade abuyele emhlabeni kwaye ziphila ngomzimba wenyama. I sizathu ukuba ayinakulawula nantoni na emva ukufa Oko kukuthi, ukhetho olunokwenzeka kuphela ngelixa use- mhlaba oqhelekileyo. Emva koko ukufa umntu uphantsi ukukhohlisa, njengoko wayengena ubomi.

In ubomi akaboni kwanto njengoko injalo. Ubona yonke into njengokudityaniswa kunye kwaye akaboni nto ngokwayo. Ke ngoko ubona izinto ezinokwexeshana njengezisisigxina. Ubona kuphela kwangaphandle kwezinto, hayi ezona zinto zidibanisa izinto kunye. Akaboni tshintsho luye lwenza utshintsho lwangaphandle. Akakwazi ukwahlula phakathi kwakhe kunye indalo, kwaye akanakohlulahlula iimvakalelo ezine, eziyinxalenye yazo indalo, evela kuye. Yena ukoyika ukuyeka iimvakalelo ezine kunye nezinto ezinxibelelanisa naye, ngokungathi uya kuphulukana naye ukuba ulahlekile. Uxhomekeke ngokusisigxina kwi indalo, ehlala iguquka. Unempazamo malunga neyakhe yesazisi. Kuphela ngabo boyisileyo ukukhohlisa of ubomi unokubalawula emva ukufa Ke inkosi isiphelo yeyabo.

Njengokuba kunjalo Ubukrelekrele kwaye i-Triune Ikhupha izigameko zomzimba ezi-marshal ukuze umhlaba uqhubeke uqhubeke iingcinga yabo bonke abenzi ingakhutshelwa ngaphandle kwindiza ebonakalayo, ngoko ke i-Triune Selves ngamanye amaxesha iyakhawulezisa okanye ibuyise ukuvumelaniswa kweentlobo zexesha abenzi, ukuze ezi zilungele xa ixesha lomzimba livuma ukuphinda ubekhona. The ukukhanya bobuNgcali ngesenzo sayo ngokungxama okanye ukwandisa ukufezekiswa kweziganeko ezingokupheliswa kwexesha elimele kudluliswa. I Ubukrelekrele bangangabinanto yakwenza nolawulo lwendiza ebonakalayo, kodwa banxibelelana nezinye Ubukrelekrele ngubani umntu omoshayo ngexesha kwaye abeke izinto zomzimba ezizayo. Rhoqo ukwanda okanye ukubuyela umva kwenzeka xa umenzi kufuneka ehlangane nezinye ezininzi abenzi emhlabeni okanye ukuba umenzi wahlukile kwibala eliqhelekileyo le abenzi, okanye ukuba isendleleni.

The abantu ngokwazo zibangela ukukhawuleziswa okanye ukubuyiswa kwe ixesha zazo ukuphinda ubekhona ngento abacinga ngayo ngelixa bekwenziwe kunye nendlela abasebenza ngayo ngokuphathelene kule nto ukucinga. Into emiselweyo kukuba imvakalelo kwaye ukucinga gcina a umenzi kunye nomhlaba wenyama okanye uyisuse kwimeko yomzimba.

Umntu uyakhawuleza ukubuya kwakhe ngokuzama ukubona izibakala njengoko zinjalo, ngokwenza kwakhe imisebenzi ngaphandle ithemba yomvuzo okanye Ukoyika zokungonakali, ngokusebenza ukufezekisa yakhe iinjongo nangokuba iinjongo hayi kude kakhulu ngaphambi kokufunyanwa. I ixesha kuba ukubuya kulibazisekile xa umntu ebona kuphela inxenye ye izibakala kwaye unqwenela ukuba izinto zahluke, xa yena ukoyika ukuza kwemicimbi, xa athe wenza kakuhle ngaphakathi ithemba yomvuzo okanye ukwala Ephosakeleyo ngenxa yokoyika sohlwayo, xa ecinga kakhulu ngayo zulwini kwaye isihogo kwaye linqwenela enye okanye ukoyika enye, okanye xa ecinga engayibeki eyakhe ukucinga kukuziqhelanisa. Ukucwangcisa izinto ezimbi nokuba ungazenzanga kuya kuzisa a umenzi mva nje, ngoba iimvakalelo kwaye iingcinga zikwangoku kunye nomhlaba. Ucinga Ngokufanelekileyo nangona ingengowomhlaba, ukuhlehlisa ukubuyela emhlabeni kuba inxulumene nekamva. Umsebenzi okanye isikhundla kwi ubomi abanazimpembelelo zininzi kubo; kodwa i ukucinga bavumela okanye baqhuba ntoni. Umbhexeshi emsebenzini unokucinga ngorhulumente ofanelekileyo okanye intanda-bulumko; umdibaniso welizwe unokucinga okungaphaya kwendawo yakhe yokusebenza. Injalo ukucinga zingagcina ixesha elide ixesha. Kwelinye icala i-pawnbroker, umngcatshi okanye igqwetha alisoze lifike ngaphaya kobunzima izibakala wakhe ubomi; hayi intanda-bulumko yemfuno, ukufa nembambano, kodwa eyona nto banokuzifumana kubo ngenxa yemikhwa yabo etsala umdla wabo ukucinga. Injalo ukucinga ndizakubabuyisa kwakamsinya. Ngokubanzi okusebenzayo ukucinga kwaye ukugqithiselwa kwizenzo kwangoko kunciphisa ukungabikho komzimba ubomi.

Emva ukufa Imimandla, ubudala kunye nexesha lokubandezeleka kunye nobumnandi bunokufunyanwa ngamagama amafutshane ngokulinganisa ngokwasemzimbeni ixesha. Kwi abenzi ngokwamanqanaba abo okwasemzimbeni ixesha ayikho. Amaxesha amade okanye amafutshane ngokulinganisa ngokwasemzimbeni ixesha nditsho kwanto kubo.

Nokuba kukude okanye kukufutshane ukungabikho ku mhlaba oqhelekileyo iyanceda kwiimeko ezahlukeneyo. Akukho ngxelo iqinisekileyo isebenza kubo bonke abenzi okanye nakweyiphi na into eyenziwa ngumntu, inokwenziwa ukuba igubungele iimeko ezininzi kwi mhlaba oqhelekileyo kunye neemeko ezahlukeneyo ze abenzi ngamaxesha athile.

Ngokubanzi, kungcono abantu onenkoliseko kwaye ngubani umsebenzi ukuze kungenelwe abanye, ukuba ubuye kungekudala. Ukubuya kwabo kubanika ubuncinci ithuba ukucinga kunye umsebenzi ukuze ke kwenzeke okuthile. Kodwa ukubuyela kwangethuba kunokuba kubi xa umntu engena kwixesha angalilunganga, kwaye ke unesimo sokubaleka kulo isiphelo, okanye ukuba uza ngeziphene, njengomzimba obuthathaka. Ukanti, ezo zithintelo zinokuchaswa kwaye zoyiswe kwaye imeko iguqulwe yaba yingenelo. Ngamaxesha athile abantu abo babuye kwakamsinya abanakukwenza umsebenzi, kuba khange babe nexesha elaneleyo lokuphumla okungenaphupha emva kokuphela kwabo zulwini ixesha Ukusilela kokuphumla banokungalingani Mathuba, abalungiselelwe imicimbi okanye ngaphandle kobunzima ukwenza okanye ukuqhuba cwangciso. Kwanamaxesha angafanelekanga awazalwa ngawo umntu nalapho ahlala khona kwaye engaqondi, anokufumana isibonelelo ukuba ujongene nendawo ahlala kuyo ngenkalipho okanye ukuba afunde okuthile kuyo.

Ngokwesiqhelo ithuba elide alifanelekanga kuba igcina a umenzi ukusuka kumhlaba wokusebenza kunye Mathuba. Inokwenzeka ukuba uyithathe kude kakhulu kunamaxesha ebeqhelene nawo ukucinga uyenzile iqhelekile. A umenzi unokucinga kwaye uqikelele phezulu iinjongo kwaye, okoko nje ukuba zibaqhagamshele kunye nezinto zangoku ezibonakalayo, ayicingi ukuba igcinwe kude nomhlaba. Kwahlukile ukucinga enganxibelelani okanye ichasene nezinto zokwenene. Ukuphupha okunjalo kugcina umntu kude nomhlaba kwaye kungathandeki, kuba kuyathintela Mathuba ukwenza nantoni na ngokwakhe. Kwimeko nganye nganye ubude bokungabikho buquka imibuzo yomntu ngamnye isiphelo kwaye ayinakho ukulahlwa yimpendulo ecekethekileyo egubungela onke amatyala.

Ukulahlwa kwesidumbu somntu oswelekileyo kunokuba nefuthe ekubuyeni okanye ekubuyeni kwexesha kamva umenzi. Ukutshiswa okanye ukutshiswa komzimba ziintaka okanye iintlanzi kukhulula umqambi units kwimpembelelo yomzimba wenyama omane. Ke umhlaba wenyama uphulukana nazo zonke izinto ezibambe kwiinzingo ezine naku uhlobo lokuphefumla. Ke apho umenzi ukhululiwe kwimpembelelo yokoqobo lomhlaba okhuphe kwiimvakalelo kunye uhlobo lokuphefumla.

Kwimeko yokungcwatywa umhlaba wenyama unokuqhubeka nempembelelo yawo ngomzimba omane kumqambi units kwaye buyise abo inkululeko de ukubola kusebenze umzimba wenyama. Ukuqhola kunye nokuthambisa kugcina ukubola komzimba kunye nokubamba okwexeshana units emzimbeni. Umqambi units awuchaphazelekanga. Nini ukufa kwenzeka umzimba wexeshana units intsalela; I uhlobo lokuphefumla kunye neemvakalelo kunye nomqambi units shiya umzimba kwangoko; kodwa kusekho unxibelelwano lwemagnethi phakathi komqambi units kunye nomzimba wenyama.

Ukutshisa kutshabalalisa kanye emva koko umzimba wenyama omane, kunye nefuthe lomzimba wenyama on uhlobo lokuphefumla kunye nabacwangcisi. Xa kulawula cinga olandelayo umenzi isahlulo sokuphinda sibekhona koomatshini bokushicilela ukuphinda ubekhona, emva ukufa ziyakhawuleza. Ke ezobe Yenza i uhlobo lokuphefumla, eyenza unxibelelwano nabazali ukuba babekho ngokuphefumla kwabo, ukuze bakhulelwe. Ukuba umzimba wangaphambili awumbolwanga kunokubakho impembelelo ebulalayo yokuwohloka nge-astral kwi nge-astral oko kwakhiwa kumama. I nge-astral Isidumbu sinokuchaphazela umqambi units into emilise umzimba omtsha esibelekweni ukushukumisa kumama kwaye inokudlulisela utyekelo lomtshato kuye isifo okanye ebubini. Ngokwesiqhelo i ixesha ekufuneka ivele phakathi kokuphinda-phindwa komzimba ubuncinci ngu ixesha iyimfuneko kumqambi units ukukhululeka kwimpembelelo yemagnethi yomzimba obolileyo.

Kwimeko yokutshisa izidumbu ziya kukhululwa kule mpembelelo kwangoko; kwimeko yokubola bakhululekile xa amalungu abewalawulayo sele efikelele kwinqanaba elithile lokubola. Oku kunokwenzeka kwisithuba seenyanga ezimbalwa. Amathambo, enziwe njengoko enjalo okwexeshana units Kwimeko eqinile-eyomeleleyo, ngabokugqibela ukwahlukana nokungabalulekanga.

Abenzi isenokungabikho emhlabeni ubomi amawaka eminyaka. Oku kwenzeka apho iimeko eziphawulwe ngokwasemzimbeni ixesha awaneli kulawulo lwayo iingcinga Iindlela zokutyhila, iitalente zabo intsimi yokubonisa, kubo ubuchule indawo efanelekileyo kunye nakwabo iinjongo abantu abaziqondayo nabafana nazo. Uninzi abenzi Okwangokuphakama kwakudala komhlaba, amanzi, umoya kunye nomlilo ayabandakanywa ukuphinda ubekhona.

Umhlaba, ukusukela kwimbali ukutsho oko, mhlaba oqhelekileyo ze abenzi njengoko benze imbali yegazi kunye neyodumo erekhodiweyo. Ngamaxesha eembali abenzi Ngubani owaziyo kwanabekwiiklasi ze abacinga Baninzi kakhulu kwiincinci kwaye bahlala bengaqondi kwaye batshutshiswa. Kodwa kungenxa yokuba ubukhulu becala i-Impucuko yesiBini yenziwe ukuba iqhubeke. Uninzi olunje abenzi babuyile ngexesha labo, kodwa ugqatso abelulo lwalungenakubuya, luphela, kangangamawakawaka eminyaka. Kwiinkulungwane ezininzi ubuyela umva abenzi Ndize emhlabeni. Benze indawo apho ukuya phambili abenzi owakha umhlaba, amanzi, iminyaka kunye nemililo yomlilo kwiindawo zazo eziphakamileyo, awanakho ukuza.

Kodwa ke kule minyaka ilikhulu elinamashumi amahlanu idlulileyo kwenziwe okuninzi, ngokungeniswa okubanzi kolwazi kunye nokufunyanwa kunye nokusetyenziswa kwabo ngokubanzi, ukunika isiseko sokunyuka. Amaqela amatsha abenzi bayeza abo sele bemkile ixesha elide ixesha. Ngethuba leminyaka embalwa ukuphuculwa komgangatho wezinto ezibonakalayo bekukukhulu kwaye kubanzi kakhulu kunanini na ixesha kwimbali.

Phakathi kwabaqambi kunye nokufunyanwa kuye kwakho ezinye ze abenzi owayehlala kwakudala. Emva koko amandla omhlaba, amanzi, umoya kunye nokukhanya kwenkanyezi kwaziwa kwaye kwasetyenziswa, nto leyo eyayingasayi kuze ifikeleleke kwaye ifundwe. Abanye babafunyanwa ngoku abenzi yayikabani loo minyaka qaphela ukusebenza kwaloo mikhosi. I iingcinga ababezenzile ke ngokusebenza kwaloo mikhosi babhala amanqaku kuzo ezo abenzi. Ekubuyeni kwabo iingcinga ihlaziye iisiginitsha kwi uhlobo lokuphefumla kwaye yaqala ingqondo-yomzimba kwizifundo zotyikityo. Iimeko emhlabeni zazingafani, kodwa ezi abenzi ukunxibelelana nabo iingcinga kula maxesha adlulileyo, benziwa ukuba bakwazi ukusebenzisa ulwazi lwabo lwangaphambili kwindawo entsha kwaye ke loo nto bayifumanisileyo isebenzisa ixesha elitsha. Xa ngokubanzi ukucinga of ubuntu ichasene nayo nayiphi na into entsha, kukho inkolelo ngokubanzi yokuba into ebunjiweyo ayinakwenzeka. Iziphumo ezininzi zifunyenwe ngenxa yoku sizathu uphathwe ngokungakhathali okanye ubutshaba. Abasifumanayo bangoko ke bahlala bengaziwa. Kodwa xa uyinqwenela kwaye ukucinga yabantu baqhuba kwimigca ethile, nokuba kufunyenwe izinto ezintsha okanye izinto ebezifunyenwe zaliwe, zamkelwe kwaye zenziwa zathandwa. Abantu abanikwa imbeko yokuba ngoovulindlela kufumaniseko bahlala bengabo basebenzise okwethutyana ukufunyanwa kwezinto ezenziwe ngumntu ongaziwayo okanye olityelweyo owayengakwazi ukohlula ubunzima bomntu ngokubanzi ukucinga. Aba bafumani bentsusa, bayaziwa okanye bengaziwa, bahlala abenzi abakhe bahlala kuloo minyaka yakudala.

Olona hlanga luphambili abenzi ezikhoyo azikho kwakhona xa zizonke. Ngamaxesha athile kubakho ukugqabhuka, neqela le abenzi ukusuka kolu hlanga lwamaxesha e-prehistoric avele kunye. Emva koko baphawula i-epoch ebumnyameni.

Injalo imeko yakudala kwi-Hellas, eyayinkulu kangangokuba yabe nefuthe lomhlaba ngokubonakalayo ngaphezulu kweminyaka engamawaka amabini. Kwakukho umhlaba ngoku osezantsi kwamanzi oMeditera. Yintoni eyayisemva kweAthene, yayiyindawo eyayikade isetyenziswa ngabantu bexesha apho umlilo, umoya, amanzi kunye nobudala bomhlaba banda ndawonye. Izithandi-zobulumko ezikholisayo, izazinzulu, abakhi, amagcisa kunye neembongi zeHellas zakudala zazikho abenzi owayekhe waphila ngexesha lokukhula kweminyaka emine. Babuya kunye eAthene, bayenzela ixesha mkhulu ngakumbi kunento ekukholelwa ukuba yayiyiyo ngoku. Oko kwathethwa yintanda-bulumko malunga ne Izinto kwaye umhlaba uqhekekile wehlile wangoku kwiziqwengana, okanye kwiingxelo ezigqwethiweyo. Izidalwa zobuThixo kunye nohlanga lweentsomi zamaGrike zizithethe ezimeleyo abantu owayephile ngokwenene ekukhanyeni kwenkwenkwezi, umoya, amanzi nomhlaba.

The abenzi ebumba izizwe ngoku ezisemhlabeni zibe zikho kwakhona ngokwamaqela azo ezizwe ixesha elide ixesha. Xa ilizwe liphela, abenzi rhoxa okwethutyana kwaye emva koko wakhele ugqatso elitsha okanye ungene kwimizimba yohlanga oluhlala kwenye indawo yomhlaba. Bahamba ngokwamaqela kwiindlela ezahlukeneyo ngokweendlela zabo ukucinga. Bazenza njengeqela phezu kolo hlanga, okanye bangenwe lulo.

Xa izizwe zizalwa zihlala zijikeleze iindawo ezithile abathi, ngenxa yokwenziwa kweentaba, amathafa, imilambo kunye namazibuko, bathande ukwakhiwa kwezixeko. Ezinye zezi ndawo ngamaziko empucuko ephumelelayo, kuba ziindawo ezikhethekileyo emhlabeni emhlabeni. Ziveliswa amandla ombane kwaye ivumela ezinye izinto ezincinci ezibonakalayo ukuba zibonakalise apho. Kukho iindawo apho ixesha kwaye kwakhona bekungamasimi edabi, amaziko orhulumente, izihlalo ze nokufunda okanye izixeko zorhwebo. Ezinye iindawo zisebenzile kule ndima. INew York, iLondon, iRome, iAthene, iCairo ezinye zazo. Ngaphandle kweenguqu ezininzi kumdibaniso womhlaba kunye nomhlaba wamanzi emhlabeni, izixeko ziphakame zaphinda zabuya kula maziko. Kukho amaziko anje eMantla, embindini naseMazantsi eMelika nasePasifiki, apho izixeko zibalulekileyo ziya kubakho, njengoko bezikhe zenzeka ngaphambili.

Ukuba amazwe ngamaxesha ahlukeneyo ahlukeneyo, kungenxa yokuba iiseti ezahlukeneyo abenzi wabuya emhlabeni. Iiseti ezithile ziza kulutsha lwesizwe, ezinye iiseti ziyakha, ezinye iiseti zizisa Nkcubeko okanye urhwaphilizo nezinye abenzi yizani nincedise ekutshatyalalisweni kwayo. Ngamanye amaxesha isizwe siyanyamalala ngokungabonakaliyo. Uhlobo oluthile lwegazi lusasele ukugcina ukuqhubeka kwemizimba, kodwa i abahlali kuyo loo mizimba ayisiyiyo abenzi eyayikho ngaphambili.

Abakholwayo abenzi YaseGrisi yeklasi ayihlali kwimizimba yamaGrikhi anamhlanje. Ifellahin, nangona ilula abantu, ayizizo abenzi eyenze ukuba iYiputa ibe ntle; I abenzi kuMbindi Merika ayisiyiyo abenzi yeeMayas zakudala; kwaye i abenzi yabantu eIndiya ayisiyiyo eyenziweyo kwaye basebenzisa iSanskrit. Kodwa okoko nje amazwe ahlala ngokufanayo kuwo ukucinga, enjalo abenzi buyela kubo, uthethe ngokubanzi. Kukho okwahlukileyo, kodwa kukho oku kubuya ngokubanzi. Abenzi bahlala badibana kwakhona kwiintsapho zabo ezinye abenzi ababenolwalamano olusondeleyo nabo, mayibe kukuncamathisela okanye ubutshaba. Iintsapho zikwanobudlelwane, zinobuhlanga okanye zinobuhlobo, kunye nezinye iintsapho okanye amaqela abantu. Ezi zihlobo ezingaphezulu okanye ezingasebenzi kakuhle ziya kuzisa zonke abenzi ababotshelelwa kubo luluntu okanye udidi kwisizwe. I Mathuba Ezi zinto zibonakalayo zilinganiselwe ngokomzimba ixesha. Ke ngoko kulungelelanisa ukubuyiswa kokuthile abenzi yenziwa zizidalwa ezirhuqa yonke imicimbi yasemhlabeni ngaphakathi ixesha nendawo, ukuze ezo ziphinde zibekho kunye ekufuneka zenziwe umsebenzi iindawo zabo ezifanayo.
