Everybody can see that there is something definitely wrong with us as human, and the world in general. We just accept the "Status Quo" as a given situation. We just know, it's there but nobody knows how these things happened to us. Without knowing the root causes, we are trying to solve the problem just like trying to clean the water from the sinking ship without fixing the hole in the bottom. In doing so, we are just adding more problem to the world. Why? Because, if you really want to solve the problem of the world, the very first thing you need to understand is how these human problems did happen? If you don't know the pathogenesis of this "disease", you cannot prevent it and it's bound to happen again, most likely from your contribution. If you don't learn from history, you are bound to repeat it. If you are not part of the solution, then you must be in the precipitation [ie. The Problem].

You think the world that we currently live in is a hopeless, corrupt, degenerated society created and fueled by mass of stupid, ignorant, consumption minded people. This is not a new phenomenon at all. In the records of most ancient cuneiform clay tablets found in ancient Sumerian and Babylonian sites, one of the first written records in the history, described a corrupt society, degenerated people, tyranny of ruler kings and the general people were frustrated by the dark demonic depravity of the world and they hoped that one day there will be a true divine redeemer who will destroy the evil in the world. In the time of Jesus, people thought they are living in the end time seeing the corrupt and evil society and eagerly awaiting for the promised savior or Messiah for salvation of their souls. Eventually, the Savior revealed himself according to "public demand" but the Pharisees rejected him because he does not have all the [quite unrealistic] criteria to be the real Messiah and they knew inner working of the demand and how and why the criteria for a Savior were selected. On the other hand, the believer of Messiah saw that the Divine Savior did actually appear before them but could not bring the kingdom of heaven, as promised. The work was just too arduous for one man betrayed by even his close associates and people who favored Barabbas instead of Jesus. On the contrary, to their surprise, he just died and failed his mission. So if he were to be a genuine Messiah, he has to come back to finish his job [establishing the kingdom of heaven]. This is how the resurrection of Jesus becomes mandatory, if the myth to be true, he reappeared in person. Subsequently, a "second coming" of the Savior myth is created so that he can try it again to establish the Kingdom of heaven, as promised by the intellectuals at that time. The chosen people [The Jews intellectuals] still are waiting to this day for a Messiah to come, who, because of their "high standard", almost impossible to come for real, and the believer of Savior [The Christians] are still waiting to for the second coming of the Christ to end the evils in the world.

Unless you understand the hidden truths behind this story, why it was there, who proposed those, why the mass believed it, where does it come from, you are not going anywhere. In contrast, if you reject blatantly the story and hence hidden the truth behind these allegorical stories as just a useless figment of imagination induced by Mushroom or Soma juice, as the atheist do, you are not going to find any meaning of life or anything in this world. You have to realize that, this Savior story is the greatest story ever told, and in fact, this the only story ever told, across all ancient cultures. If you assumes that those ancients are bunch of uneducated, stupid people, then you are dead wrong! Do your homework, again and this time harder. Whatever the mass is doing, there is always a profound reason behind it. But what does these story actually trying to tell us? Have you have thought for yourself? Unless you understand how the world works, how the religion were developed, why people developed it, why people are following it even today, how government works, what is the law and how the law came as of today, what is money, who prints it, what is the collateral for money printing and lending, how the science works, how science came to be in the central position, who is financing the science and industries, why and who are financing the politicians, who is behind the religions, who are the owners of the corporations, what are they doing, and finally why there is rampant "evil" everywhere. Unless you have done your in depth homework and found these answers, you are not going to find solution that can satisfy your soul.

As Kant claimed, the thing-in-itself cannot know or solve it itself. Most of the philosophers and intellectuals without their own imaginations and aspirations took Kant's dogma as an unquestionable "truth". This is because of acceptance of the dogma of "if intellectual giant like Kant cannot do it, then nobody can". It is not based on any sound rationality, rather based on mere personal conviction. It's almost like a blackbox that we don't have any access to. On the contrary, you can gain some valuable and indispensable insight by examining what the worlds are doing around you and inside you. In the world, most accessible are the things who are doing something or have some language so that you can communicate with them meaningfully. If you examine the world, the nature, the animals, the plants, and most importantly humans, you can have some rough estimate of what the things are actually doing. Because you came out of this world, hence some form of similar activity has to be happening inside you too. On the other hand, if you go to the microscopic world you can examine what the cells, microorganisms, bacteria and viruses are doing. You can dig deeper to understand what the proteins, DNA molecules, and other elements are doing. You can dig even deeper to see what the elementary particles, photons, electrons are doing and how they are coming into existence. Once you have done sufficient homework you will begin to see some general pattern among the microscopic worlds and then you can understand yourself better because, after all you are made up with all these staff. Little by little, you will discover the gift of "transcendent perspective" and all these levels of understanding will give you an even better edge to understand the thing-in-itself. On top of these "as above and so below" levels of understanding, if you see what the whole human family is doing as a superorganism you can have a better handle on yourself and one by one, the veils which were creating the inaccessibility of thing-in-itself will be lifted and you will discover the light. Those things that were previously inaccessible, will become accessible to your hands for your own examination with the magic of supra and infra levels of transcending knowledge. Now the "new" thing-in-itself can examine it itself, and thus overcoming Kantian barrier of human knowledge. Unless you have done some serious homework to understand how the world and people actually work, you have no hope for salvation. You can believe in Buddha, you can believed in Jesus, you can believe in Muhammad, or you can believe in Science [ie. Atheist] but you will not get any real sense what they all tried to say. Unless you find out what they have found and understood, how can you ever expect to get anything that they have promised? The real salvation, if any, lies in understanding and knowledge, not in mere belief of these Masters.
