Introduction

The last time I wrote, I was about to say my good-byes to Lanai, Hawaii. Within view of spinner dolphins frolicking in the morning sun, I jotted down the conclusion to my book Isis Code and, reluctantly, prepared to leave the island.

My aim with Isis Code was to bring attention to a holistic model that, although used across the world since antiquity, had gone underground, so to speak, following the rise of modern science. The knowledge associated with it, however, survived through many traditional religious texts, medical practices, and legends. Some recently popularized notions such as yin and yang, Mars and Venus, or the Jungian terms animus and anima point directly to it. To revive this model, an acceptable tool to measure or truly understand its frame was needed. As I demonstrated in Isis Code, brain-research data now clearly show that this model is expressed through the structures and functions of the human brain. Its universality comes from the fact that it represents the basic language Nature used to model this human brain through evolution. I therefore named this model the LIFE biosystem, (LIFE is an acronym for law inherent to the five elements, and bio means life) and subsequently shortened the term to LIFE.

Humanity has evolved thanks to the use of different models and standardization. These brought the ability to evaluate, to compare, and therefore to exchange. Models allow people to talk about elements within space and time using common reference points; they allow standardization. Models for measures, model for time; they allowed better communication and the industrial revolution. But is there an overarching model not only associated to time and space but to information in general? Yes. It is the LIFE model.

We are at the threshold of a new type of revolution—or revelation—brought by this revisited antique model. It allows us to understand how information, whether carried by ideas, emotions, or actions, not only influences but models our brains. This global model shows that Nature, which was thought of only in terms of a physical construct, is in fact multileveled in the same way we, the humans she generated, are. She has physical, emotional, mental, and symbolic levels in the same way humans do. She expresses these through the appropriate realms, including humanity. This master model on which Nature was founded and evolved can therefore help us understand all that is human and more. Einstein’s protégé, the quantum physicist David Bohm, described the universe as an expression of this implicate order. This model is as user-friendly as those that now allow everyone to conveniently measure space and time. Different cultures through the ages took this frame, this model, and dressed it up differently, in harmony with where they stood at the time. Because it is the basic language of Nature, of life, it is the only one that is truly universal and can encompass everything and everyone. It comprises all the possible levels of human expression and therefore can allow every human to find harmony, coherence, meaning, and happiness.

At this time, as our communities are more and more multicultural, we need to create unity through this diversity so that peace can be maintained and humanity can keep evolving. Only a common, holistic model can achieve this. This is what Nature has done for millennia as she generated unique creatures from a unique model. She created humans that all have a similar brain, expression of this model. This LIFE, which subtends Nature, is therefore the only model that can allow unity and peace for humanity as well as its integration in the natural world.

Now, I feel a simpler and shorter version of Isis Code is possible and necessary, as the book received positive reviews.¹ Love Them Back to Life has the potential to change perceptions and thus indirectly help at all levels of personal lives, from health to relationships. For those who question the science behind this antique model, a few millennia of observation and application of two medical systems—traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Indian Ayurveda—should suffice to reassure them. Indeed, recently the body’s energy meridians were finally proven to exist,² and the effectiveness of these medical systems is now acknowledged across the globe. The common model used in these systems is based on five phases or elements. To me, these correspond to the maturation of precise bodily attributes, to structures of the brain, as well as to different worlds expressed by these brain structures, which are interwoven into a whole and expressed through our physical bodies (diagram 1). These worlds are the physical, emotional, mental (symbolic plus analytic), and social-universal. Spirituality is allowed through the sum of their interactions. When I speak of a brain, I refer not only to the physical aspect of this brain but also of the world it refers to and expresses. For example, the reptilian brain concerns certain physiological brain structures and their point of expression and interest (movement, genitality, territory, and space) but also concerns the physical world. In TCM and MBC (medical biocybernetics), these are given the names of organs, as described in Isis Code. You will find some of these briefly stated at the beginning of each chapter. These five main phases, or stages, use two polarities for their expression, similar to the two ends of a magnet. They are the feminine, which is attractive, receptive, and the masculine, which is expressive. Men and women use both but on different levels. As two people enter a relationship, all their levels exchange information through a sense I named the sense of synergy. I will also discuss these.

Having researched and worked with this model for the last twenty-five years, I find that its application continually brings more sense, peace, coherence, health, and resilience into my life. The alternative, which is to accept as is, the present general point of view is similar, figuratively, to trying to drive a cart being pulled in four different directions by four horses. It simply doesn’t work. The generally held and incomplete point of view most children are educated with has created a dissociative mind frame and has generated the present world. It transformed us into a multitude of dead Osirises, a god of ancient Egypt. That is, cut up into pieces that don’t communicate. As a result, our physical, emotional, mental, and social selves lay disconnected and Nature is in dire state. We are not whole, we are not complete; therefore, we are not truly alive. On top of this, we are now enslaved to an economic system generated by this dissociative mind frame. The legend of this god says that only Isis, the part in us that strives for wholeness, can put those pieces together and free us. This is the story of her quest, as well as mine and yours, as we try to reach happiness, to regain health at all levels, to change the world for the better, or to simply allow a happy life for our children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

Walking in Isis’s steps reveals to us the journey humans unconsciously embark upon at birth and through evolution. I invite you to undertake this voyage with me and discover how to love those you cherish, including yourself, back to LIFE, back to life.

Chapter 1

A Same Canvas and Inner Compass for Every Living Structure

When I was eleven years old, as I sat one day on the steps leading to our garden, I anxiously asked myself, Why am I here?

In this I was echoing countless humans before me. This constant quest is a uniquely human trait. During each formative period of a human life, as well as of humanity, some fundamental questions are favored over all others. These are what, where/when, why/which, how, and who. As I will show, some of these are associated with the feminine polarity while others are attached to the masculine one. They are all essential for the spiral of human life to unwind.

Thanks to analytical sciences, humans gathered many answers to the questions what, where/when, and, most precisely, how. These brought amazing technological advances. Aspects that control our present civilization remain in the phase of this last question. Attached to economic pursuits and analytical views, it walks hand in hand with the what question. Both belong to the masculine polarity. Everything, including us, has become a what, an object of analytic ventures. Because humans are more than things, this has ushered in an identity crisis, and for many, as a result, life appears absurd and tasteless. They cannot find a raison de vivre. Other symptoms are expressed through the types of mental and physical illnesses and social upheavals plaguing these times. The only remedy to this situation is through answering the two remaining questions: why and who. These are attached to the feminine polarity.

Humans have a profound need to hold mentally all there is in a comprehensive mental form. The quest for a general theory of everything, for an equation that can explain all, has therefore existed as long as humans have. This global perception imparts the coherence, harmony, and control over our lives required for proper development, health, and well-being. Although science agrees that our universe has coherence and harmony,³ our general approach to life does not allow for such coherence and harmony to be psychologically maintained in our personal lives. This originated with a phase in which the need to analyze, measure, and quantify matter in order to gain control over it was paramount. This phase was dominated by the masculine polarity. What was not measurable or quantifiable—such as this antique model—was ignored and is now absent from the generally accepted point of view. As a result—or is it a cause?—modern society now suffers from a profoundly deficient feminine polarity. The positive side to this is that because of this natural suffering and the inherent motion toward evolution present in all living organisms, we might be forced to ask the right type of question and, by the same token, get the right answers.

In their quest for models and measure, scientists came to theorize that, at the beginning, the whole universe was not even the size of an atom before its energy expanded instantaneously, in a bang, to the size of a grapefruit. Interestingly, about 3,500 years ago, ancient Hindu Rig Veda had already called this atom a Bindu. What if our ancestors intuitively found something similar to this elusive general theory of everything that would explain it all? What if they found it in an invisible structure comparable to a DNA of Nature? What if this knowledge, added to the one garnered by modern sciences, allowed a more complete understanding of ourselves and of Nature? What if this, finally, could bring coherence and harmony into our lives?

The scientists of ancient traditions did not express openly their theories regarding this model. They thought, with reason, that those who were blind to sacredness might empty these of their multileveled truth and therefore of their life essence. Masters transmitted these sacred notions orally, in complete secrecy, to a few disciples. Later, echoes of these theories were put in written form as sacred texts and legends. I propose here to reveal the structure, the frame, the model behind these teachings and to compare it to the frame the data from brain research allows us to see. Those two frames match perfectly.

A long time before science grasped that we are mainly organized energy, the intuitive notion that a microcosm must somehow correspond in its structures and functions to a macrocosm was accepted by all the greatest civilizations. This led to discoveries and creations that still bewilder us. One of these, the Great Pyramid of Giza, was built more than 4,600 years ago. Humanity as it is now is a product of these first intuitive religions and sciences. As humans went through another phase of their evolution, the religions and sciences opened doors to vertical hierarchical religions and horizontal, linear sciences. These represent a mental cross we all bear.

Some four thousand years ago, Babylonians had already discovered how to solve a quadratic equation. Even something like Euclid’s fifth postulate, also known as the parallel postulate, dating to about 300 BC and considered controversial for so long, was finally proven to be right in the nineteenth century. It took all that time to make sense of it.⁴

This is because evolution in science, as in Nature, doesn’t follow a strict linear progress, but a spiral, an oscillation, a wave pattern made of phases and cycles. Likewise, societies and physical structures, such as brains, evolve through phases and cycles to better apprehend and control a multileveled reality.

This evolution through different phases naturally drove humanity away from its intuitive feel of Nature. This happened because in order for the newer analytical mind and its frontal lobes to work, develop, and eventually access a more subtle level of reality, it had to pretend it was outside of Nature. In doing so, we nailed ourselves—so to speak—to time and space. Connection with the dynamic aspect of reality diminished as awareness of its condensed aspect increased. Thus crucified and disengaged from Nature, people became disconnected from the parts of themselves that lived in symbiosis with Nature. Illnesses and social problems are often symptoms of this divorce. In the course of human evolution, however, awareness of the material world will be part of a conscious coherence. But first, as a group, we must consciously reintegrate the whole. Of course, this implies we understand how this whole works.

Physically, the whole universe is a gigantic collection of organized photons acting in a wave-particle dual fashion. It is now possible to say that bodies, in essence, are made of condensed, or slowed-down, organized light or photons. But what organizes these photons? A multileveled Master Model. In fact, humans through their personal LIFE are a fractal expression of Nature, which is a fractal expression of this Master Model in the manner of Russian dolls. Thanks to this unseen matrix, as organisms become more complex, they can process larger amounts of information/energy. The human brain is the most complex, with emerging information-processing abilities never before seen in life realms on earth. After studying the brain, the Master Model, and what is understood of the evolution of the universe⁵—which shows more energy and less matter—I surmise that the goal of human evolution is a type of general consciousness, unfolding in a dimension of time and space.

As it is universal and generates Nature, this Master Model is an inner compass interacting with the individual LIFE everyone possesses. This LIFE is not a dogma or belief. Brain research reveals that each human has a center, an anchor of their psyche around which all revolves, even their biology. The physical brain structures in charge of this are not the frontal lobes in their entirety, but the medial prefrontal lobes and parietal cortex. These are part of the feminine polarity. This center is the true executive aspect to which the logical and conscious self unconsciously answers. It holds a thorough or deformed image of the Master Model. The personal LIFE can be compared to an invisible matrix, a Mini Me. For example, if the central image I carry and express is crooked compared to the Master Model, I will develop in harmony with this deficient model, and my personal LIFE will express this. This is what the commonly labeled personal identity does. This is why the quest for love, for completion, and for perfection is in fact an innate desire to attune ourselves to the Master Model. It is impossible to have no center or to be objective. Humans are not objects. What is chosen or imposed as identity, as center, subconsciously directs our lives. If it is not in harmony with the Master Model, which supports Nature, there is little progression, no thriving, and suffering becomes the only way to achieve balance and regain harmony with this Master Model. In a nutshell, this is what religions intuitively tried, or should have tried, to achieve: put us and keep us in harmony with this global model.

On this subject, Carl G. Jung, the Swiss psychiatrist and founder of analytical psychology, had this thought:

If we speak of belief, it is that we have lost knowledge. Belief and nonbelief in God are only substitutes. In his naivety, the primitive does not believe, he knows [my italics], because he gives, with reason, as much value to inner experience as to outer experience. He does not have theology and did not let his spirit be obscured by stupidly astute concepts. He orients his life—through necessity—following exterior facts as well as interior ones, which, contrary to us, he does not feel and live as separated. He lives in a whole world, and we live, us, in half a world and only believe, or not, in the other half. By what we named intellectual evolution, we have masked it [this other half]. In other words, we live at the light of electricity, which we have fabricated ourselves and—summit of irony—we either believe or not in the sun.⁶

One of my goals through these pages is to unmask this other half, which is none other than the feminine polarity.

Science uses the analytical dissection of the outer world, the external, to draw conclusions regarding the internal. Religions do the opposite. They should be in fact the two sides of the same coin. Where one is powerless, the other is almighty. They must be used conjointly in order to understand the whole of human reality and for each of them to express a wider and more profound truth. As long as they are unchanged, divided people will be in the dark. We will suffer individually from a dissociative mind, and this will model the human brain. This is why they urgently need to be reintegrated into the Master Model that gave them birth.

Diagram 1

Einstein’s protégé, the American physicist David Bohm, called this invisible Master Model the implicate order, and he named the manifested world—its fractal mirror—the explicate order.⁷ Medical biocybernetics (MBC),⁸ Chinese philosophy, and Ayurveda, as well as many others, refer directly or indirectly to this Master Model. In these cases, science and religion work hand in hand holistically, as they should in a coherent world. Bohm stipulated that it is necessary to take into account the presence of an invisible matrix or field, because the state of a quantum is not random. It is channeled by an underlying system, which emerges from an unobservable domain, guiding the observed behavior of particles. He baptized this Master Model Q. To him, as to most ancient mythologists, this is an undivided holistic realm, beyond the notions of space, time, matter, or even energy. For many ancient traditions, it existed before time. Like a seed, it holds the folded potentialities of the universe.

Diagram 2

The most condensed image of this model, and thus the most receptive to subtle levels of energy or information, is the medium expressed in this world. For humans, it is their physical body. This body is not my origin but a consequence. It is mandated to serve as a grail and to express, hopefully, all my potential, whether of a physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual nature.

Many ancient traditions developed their medicine around this intuitive concept. My own experience is with the theory of the law of the five elements as it pertains to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The system I describe here is the LIFE biosystem (LIFE is an acronym for law inherent to the five elements, and bio means life). It echoes TCM and other traditions (Sumerian, Judaic, Egyptian, Hindu, and medieval, both Christian and Muslim), with added findings from my continuing work in medical biocybernetics and results from the most recent brain research. It is a holistic take on the Master Model, linking it to all the levels of human expression.

This model, beneath ancient ways of life, postulated that the world is made of universal elements. On earth these will be known as earth, fire, sky, water, and air. What is made clearer with LIFE is that these elements are also physical expressions of different levels or dimensions: physical, emotional, mental, and social. If one of these building blocks is missing, the manifested world ceases to exist. Also, if they do not work in harmony, catastrophes happen. Man is made of these five elements and levels, not something besides them. The physical world only serves as a substrate to the subtle worlds and is manifestation, so to speak, of these. All the symbolic notions of traditions across the globe are based on this knowledge.

This understanding of the five elements and phases seems to have been with humanity since its beginning. Even if only through the Western branch, the pre-Socratic Greek elements, I can follow its traces throughout the Middles Ages and the Renaissance, as they deeply influenced and persisted in European thought and culture.

This is, in fact, a holistic knowledge by which to live and—since it is in harmony with Nature—thrive. It is a perception of life similar to that of our ancestors, when science and religion were still integrated, but with added knowledge of the physical world, awareness, and consciousness. Back then, it led to the birth of the greatest civilizations. Here, I have stripped it of cultural, political, and dogmatic bias to reveal the skeleton, the frame and structure on which to build or reconstruct ourselves; and on which all of Nature, including our brains, is built and evolves from. The research and reflection pertaining to it will provide a better understanding of our personal (personality) and individual (individuality) natures on different levels.

This Master Model and its reflection through individual LIFE is the sieve through which energy is organized. It projects in Nature. Of course, it does not belong to a country, a race, an association, a school, or a person. It simply is, in the same way the elements in Nature are, in the same way physical laws exist. It is universal. It can be expanded to the infinite, which is what many cultures and their religions did, but the essential aspects remain the same. In this work, I only express the code of this reference model, as applied to humans and as confirmed by data from brain research.⁹

Humans with all their levels of expression are a fractal image of this model.¹⁰ Through this point of view, the brain is then considered a type of decoder through a multitude of structures, a system of systems, allowing us to live simultaneously in different worlds—physical, emotional, mental (symbolic-analytic), social-universal, and spiritual—and to express these in a global and hopefully coherent manner here on earth.

To be allowed to see and understand this, however, requires us to adopt a global point of view, in the same manner that I would step a few paces back to appreciate the depth of a work of art. Holistic, to me, is not an addition of disparate features on the physical level. Holism in humans cannot exist outside of a multileveled model, which comprises all the many levels of possible human experience: physical, emotional, social, and mental (both symbolic and analytical). It teaches us that spiritual appears in life only when the individual is attuned to the harmony of the universal primordial Master Model. Spiritual is an emergent property in humanity. It is the only difference between humans and other animals.

To exemplify this, I could say that the oak tree is in the acorn. Looking at this small rounded object, no one can guess it could one day reveal a majestic oak tree, but Nature knows. Of course, by itself, with just its genetic code, it would not develop. It needs the right conditions allowed by the natural system, of which oak trees are an intrinsic part. This particular acorn has or does not have its place in the small ecosystem of my garden, or in the evolutionary scheme of oak trees toward the optimal oak tree. With my care and Nature’s help, it will grow. The quality of its exchanges, its resilience and connectedness with my little ecosystem, will define what it can become. In the same way, humans are marked to become what our ancestors would have called gods: optimal humans. But to develop all our potentialities, to evolve fully, some conditions are needed. These must be consciously enhanced in communities in the same way I surround the seed with nutrients, water, earth, and light, allowing it to be part of a living whole. This living whole for humans comprises Nature and society. Both are equally important, and both must be in harmony with the Master Model to allow health at all levels.

Also, in order to build and strengthen the social fabric, which is no more than a tattered rag, it becomes necessary for individuals to look toward a common model. This is the zeroth law of thermodynamics¹¹ applied to psychology. If two people are in affinity with the same model, they are also in affinity with each other. Everyone carries this model, as everyone is an expression of it. Therefore, humans are subconsciously in affinity with each other. This is the only common model which all humanity could agree on, as it can be deciphered through a measurable object—the brain.

What model do humans carry at this time? In industrialized nations, it is the engineering of consent, a creation of Edward Bernays,¹² Freud’s nephew. In the 1920s, Bernays pushed forward a model in which the desire to consume must never be fulfilled. This was perfect for the industrial revolution, but it modified the economic system in a way that enslaved humans to it. As well, it locked the march of human evolution into the phase of a seven-to-fourteen-year-old child. It also rendered democracy impossible.

Conversely, the common model of the Master Model is what religions and monarchies were originally mandated to express, as it deals with identity. Because of the immaturity of the human species, however, this was impossible to achieve. Common unifying models were not universal and were approached through economy, race, culture, geography, religion, and patriotic feelings, pitting groups against one another, with wars as the disastrous result. In our modern world, in which frontiers, cultures, and religions have been leveled, a common attractive anchor on which to connect, feed, and build our humanity is urgently needed. In other words, we need a universal identity, allowing unity through diversity in the same way Nature does.

As they stand, religions addressed problems of the past, not the present. As an example, they did not promote the need to protect Nature. This was done, however, as the histories of native tribes show, when religion and science walked hand in hand. They abandoned each other as they evolved in different directions, with the rise of a symbolic Tower of Babel of our minds. This in turn echoed the phase of evolution humans were traveling through. Maybe it was thought that if humans were seeking God, they would naturally care for his creation. Now, it has become urgent for religions to emphasize this essentiality. Why not revert to religion then? We could, but religion and science first need to be purged of economic and political agendas and to recover the universal model that rests at their origins.

As for all present forms of government, they were shaped during previous phases of human evolution. They are incomplete and cannot, in their present form, address the needs and profound concerns of an evolving humanity. On the contrary, since they are not the expression of a holistic model at this point, they hinder humanity’s progression on the path of its whole potential.

Although valuable in their own way, consumer goods, sex, money, or sports cannot gather people around a common, universal model that would allow the furthering of this human evolution. In fact, it is quite the contrary. Unlike the present divisive consumerist society, a universal model could be expressed differently through all the cultures of the world, and could keep intact the richness of human diversity as well as allow its unity.

We’ve tried everything else with no success. This Master Model is the inner compass already in all of us, although unconsciously, in our cells. My goal here is to shine a light on it. It has always existed and has been recognized and interpreted through different civilizations and their religions ever since humans existed. Depending on the developmental phase the human brain was sailing through, it was either understood or not.

Chinese thinkers argue that they haven’t found elements in Western scientific dogma that would include or even take into consideration their findings and knowledge. Some Hindu sages have the same frustration. They are right. Both of their traditions rose when humans were passing through a period influenced by the global feminine polarity. Dismissing the whole, as Western science now tends to do, because of fear of letting go of the part is not only backward but very limiting. Keeping an erroneous vision of the whole, despite what the parts tells us, would be limiting as well. Expressed through different mythologies, sacred texts, dogmas, and ancient medical systems, the Master Model remains the same; and the human brain, whatever the race and epoch, is similarly built on it.

It is easy to recognize this model between the pages of the Pentateuch (the first five books of Jewish and Christian Scriptures and similar to the Tawrat of the Muslim faith) and witness it in Egyptian mythology through the legend of Isis and Osiris, as discussed in Isis Code. All around the world, great religions have tried to express its tenets, but it was mainly an intuitive venture, except for some individuals who solidified it through a usable medical system and some sacred writings.

The problem, until now, was in its interpretation, which was limited in the same way our brain and its science were. Also, in modern times, the bulk of humanity has lost the ability of a global approach because the phase we have embarked upon requires an ultrafocused point of view in a punctual manner. We could say that our nose is now stuck on the painting; we have no concept of the whole picture. I suggest we step back a few feet in order to stop seeing older traditions and some of their attached institutions as anachronistic and relics of an obsolete era. I suggest we stop fearing manipulation as the worst has already happened: humanity is now totally enslaved to a self-created, incomplete economic system and has become its object. In all, I simply suggest we recuperate the baby we threw away with the bathwater, when science became focused solely on the visible side of reality.

Before, this possible paradigm shift was put aside, since that period of time was still one of childhood for humanity. That is not the case anymore. It is up to each of us to seize this opportunity now. This new approach will allow us not only to predict the future, in a sense, but also to fill in the gap between science and spirituality. By doing so, we will acquire a truly holistic perception of life, of love, of Nature, and, therefore, of ourselves. This is necessary to our individual health and happiness, and necessary to humanity’s survival and evolution.

Within that view, Nature suddenly appears as a great being that lives, breathes, and suffers not only with but through humanity. In fact, when the system that unfolds through this being is in a state of imbalance—in other words, when Nature is ill—no amount of potent pharmaceutical drugs or technological advances can save us. We are Nature. This also says that some sensitive individuals, more attuned to it, feel the urgent need to care about and protect her. Instead of mocking them, we should praise them as humanitarians.

Ignoring her has led to widespread emotional hurdles being added to the physical ones. Here are a few facts, as per the US National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH).¹³

Major depressive disorder is now the leading cause of disability in the United States and in established market economies. India leads with its rate of depression at 36 percent.¹⁴ This is truly catastrophic. In the United States alone, in any given year, approximately 18.8 million American adults aged eighteen and older suffer from a depressive disorder. These figures translate to 12.4 million women and 6.4 million men. Try to imagine 18.8 million people gathered around you. Try to imagine and feel their collective distress, as well as the pain of their children, friends, and families. Of this number, half can be considered as suffering from a major depressive disorder. This is a cruel war. It is as if nobody cares about stopping the monster that generates this situation: a fragmented and thus erroneous mind.

These disorders are now appearing earlier in life. Fifty years ago, the average age of onset for depression was twenty-eight years old, which marks the beginning of the social-universal phase (see chapter 7). Recent statistics indicate it is now age fourteen, which marks the beginning of the idealistic phase of teenagers (see chapter 5). Widespread depression is a symptom of a society harboring a profoundly deficient feminine polarity. It is not solely a personal and familial problem, but a societal one, collectively and individually paid for with the high price of the pain it inflicts at every level of human life.

To the physical distress of the poor, now emotional distress is added. Although silent, the pain of depression is quite real and profound. And to this war that we are losing—since we are not fighting back appropriately—we are now sending our kids. This spells disaster for the future and underlines the need for immediate action to rectify the situation. The status quo isn’t an option anymore. Humankind needs to act to save itself.

But you may ask: What can I do about it as I stand anonymous and isolated?

The first step is to alter the generally held incomplete point of view in life. This can be done through the acquisition of a new kind of knowledge. Psychologically, the present perception of the world, held by most of us, allows us to express and acknowledge only half of reality. It is as if individuals are born with a patch over their right eye. Sure the other one functions, but because of the blind eye, there is no depth to what they see. Everything is cartoonish. Two eyes are needed to see depth in anything. Most of us, unknowingly, live psychologically in a world that is two dimensional, senseless, meaningless and absurd. True knowledge requires depth: the external and the internal. But how would we know? The answer to this is through paying attention to the echoes of ancient cultures and traditions, for some important elements that the modern world dismisses are found in the roots of humanity.

More and more people feel that something is not right. They feel they are not as happy as they should be, despite physical comforts. Their inner compass speaks. How do we fix this? Reintegration of the missing point of view, of the feminine polarity, in our lives is the answer.

After studying for a few years in two universities and a naturopathic school, I realized the knowledge I was seeking was not taught there. I do not define myself as a scientist, a psychologist, a priest, or a doctor. I have, however, a profound love for beauty, Nature, life, knowledge, and humanity. I believe that this love is a prerequisite to becoming a scientist, a psychologist, a priest, or a doctor. I have researched what no school can explain, no drug can give, and no money can buy: life and love. When I started with Radio-Canada television as a young woman, my boss made this pronouncement: In life, remember this, there are only three things: sex, money and power. I was shocked. True, you can live your life with only sex, money, and power. It usually does not end well. Through the years, I was showed that in fact only one element is worth being here for: love. Without love and its expression—life—there is nothing. It is quite possible that I researched these both because I felt, with or without reason, deprived in both. This led me to the source, to the Master Model of old.

Humans have to be more than blobs of cells evolving because of wants, needs, genes, and confrontations with a rapidly changing environment. Is there a direction to human evolution? One clue to this resides in the fact that only the mutations that are best adapted have remained. The question is, best adapted for what? The Master Model points to the answer.

The Darwinist evolutionary concept is only partly accurate because
