From- In Search of the Miraculous chapter fifteen.
The organic life transmits planetary influence of various kinds to the earth and that it serves to feed the moon and to enable it to grow and strength them.
But the earth also is growing; not in sense of size but sense of greater consciousness, greater receptivity. The planetary influence which were sufficient for her at one period of her existence become insufficient, she needs to receive finer influence, a finer more sensitive receptive apparatus is necessary.
Therefore, organic life has to evolve, to adapt it self to the needs of the planets and the earth. This means that in order to answer its purpose, organic life must evolve and stand on the level of the needs of the planets, the earth and the moon.
The Ray of Creation, from the Absolute to the moon, is like a branch of a tree-a growing branch.
The growing of the moon depends on organic life on earth. If this organic life disappears or dies, or humanity does not evolve, it means that the evolution of organic life will stop and this will cause the growth of the Ray of Creation to stop.
At same time, if humanity ceases to evolve, it becomes useless from the point of view for which it was created and as such, it may be destroyed; may mean the destruction of humanity.
But, the process of evolution is possible.
And it begins with, a certain group of cells gradually becomes conscious; then it attracts to itself other cells, and gradually makes the whole organism serve its aims.
This is evolution and there can be no other kind of evolution.
In humanity as a individual man, everything begins with the formation of this conscious nucleus in humanity.
The evolution of humanity can proceed only through the evolution of a certain group, which, in its turn, will influence and lead the rest of humanity.
How many people could there be in this Conscious Group? someone asked to Gurdjieff.
Only they themselves know this. said G.
Does it mean that they all know each other? asked same person again.
How could it be otherwise? asked G.
Imagine that there are two or three people who are awake in the midst of a multitude of sleeping people. They will certainly know each other. But those who are sleep cannot know them.
How many are they?
We do not know and we cannot know until we become like them.
If they existed and if they found it necessary and legitimate, could change the whole of life on the earth.
Note; Gurdjieff didn't said that, enlightened group, nor conscious individual will change the world.
He's prediction was lawfully legitimated 'Conscious Group' that will do the work.
This group is definitely exist nowadays.
And I am glad that I'm belong to this conscious group.
