Course VIII - Teaching 5: The Future Man

Man knows himself only by parts. One can state this is a time of specialties. So, we have lost the sight of the whole, of the integral man.
Body and mind of man are not a totality. This totality is body and mind animated by the spirit.
The future man has to be a harmonious type with healthy body, active mind and self-centered spirit.
He shall be a true individuality.
He shall substitute his sportive development of the skeleton and muscles for another effort of mental concentration by releasing bodily energy repressed and enslaved by a thoughtless materialism.
A new moral based on the joie du vivre shall grant to man his right of pleasure, which generates –and does not destroy– energies.
So, selfishness shall be substituted for the sense of egoentia and usually the man shall get used to be the builder of his happiness by learning that the true treasure is to give and not to expect a reward.
If man is an image of God, Who is full happiness and bliss, also his right and duty is to reach this happiness.
So it is necessary for the mind to get used to reflect by itself and not exploit thoughts and sayings of others.
An unexplored part of our cerebral matter expects new radioactive grooves engraved on it granting not only the sense of reason and instinct but also the power of intuition. Dr. Tilney says man uses a mere quarter of his store of 14,000 millions of brain cells.
This shall develop a clearer memory and self-assurance as to his success by granting the bliss of knowledge.
Man should stop being a beggar knocking for bread on every door because he is bound to become both bread of life and owner of the Good Way.
