February 27, 1940
Coiyoacan[50]
The listeners silenced for some time waiting Paolo to make some commentaries.
There is a small addition written on March 3, 1940, – he continued. – It deals with this phrase: “My faith in the communist future of mankind is not less ardent, indeed it is firmer today, than it was in the days of my youth” and sounds in the following way: “This belief can be given by no religion”.
It’s known that Trotsky died in the Mexico hospital on August 21, 1940, after Mercader has split his skull with an alpenstock (an ice-axe) on August 19. But nearly three months before this murder and three months later his testament writing on May 24, 1940, a murderous assault on Trotsky was committed. It was made by a group of 22 persons lead by that time still unknown artist David Alfonso Siceiros. The operation had the code name – “the Duck”. It is still considered that the murder was organised by Trotsky’s main enemy – Stalin. But the outward attributes let to think that somebody just made Stalin out an organiser of this in many respects ritual action.
And who is its customer by your opinion? – Holmes asked him.
As I’ve said, I think the customer can be determined because of the outward attributes of the crime. Agree that an alpenstock is not the most convenient instrument of murder. It’s hard to hide it and it’s rather impossible to stab accurately without a practise. Even an ordinary hammer is more opportune. By the way, because of such unsuitable instrument Trotsky’s agony lasted for longer time and he died only on the third day. But nonetheless, somebody insisted on using an alpenstock. It should be regarded as the greetings from Swiss Alps. And for the initiates into such doodads, the group of 22 terrorists should associate either with football-players or with Old Egypt hierophants[51].
Paolo, explain please, who are these hierophants? – The host questioned.
Look here, - Paolo opened the first “picnic”. – Do you see on the top picture four rows of Egyptian figures? Each of them consists of five figures. And on above there are two more similar figures that drive a pair of bulls. A bull was a symbol of the Amon-Ra, a divinity of Ancient Egypt. Per se it’s the symbolic representation of the social system of ruling of the Ancient Egyptian civilization. Literally, the hierophants “ploughed” on Amon-Ra posing him as the god for the crowd. If one of you read the novel “Pharaoh” by Boleslav Pruss, he should have noticed how the zhretses used the Sun god cult for their selfish ends. The milestone of the whole novel is the scene of the crowd’s revolt, which was organised by the zhretses themselves a little time before the solar eclipse they had counted to take place. The crowd refused to obey and then the hierophants promised to “darken the Sun”. When the nerve-strain had reached its top-point, the Sun started to “grow dim” and the crowd felt down on the square before the temple in horror. They believed tat the hierophants had power over the Sun and thus over the whole life on the earth. After the crowd had become obedient its energy could be used for anything the zhretses liked.
The word “hierophant” means “one who knows the future, who reads the fate”, i.e. the matrix scenario of possible events development. They entered the two groups of eleven high zhretses with a supreme hierarch on the top of each. One ruled over the northern and another over the southern part of Ancient Egypt[52]. The opinion exists, that they were the first people who got an understanding of the conceptual power, as the highest level of the hierarchy of power in the society. It is the power that Andrew told of – the power of the certain ideas and the people ruling the ideas.
Some ideas live much longer then people do, thus the conceptual power just couldn’t be autocratic at all; in this sense it is out of any democratic electoral procedures, but nevertheless it is on the top of the crowd-“elitist” pyramid indeed. One cannot reach this top using the democratic elections; but one can reach it if he remembers that the scheme of the pyramid’s construction is quite simple. Everybody works for himself in compliance with his measure of understanding; and in compliance with his measure of misunderstanding he work on those, who understand more. The conceptual power just doesn’t exist for modern crowd-“elitist” society, which discerns only three branches of power – legislative, executive and judicial. But if somebody in the crowd doesn’t know and understand something, things unfamiliar to him don’t stop to exist. And to make the crowd not to search for the conceptual power, even unfamiliar to it, the conceptual power itself invented the convenient way to hide itself. They told that the highest power in the society belongs to people. One can hardly imagine more cynical idea, because “people” is a “collective noun”, but not a “proper or common noun”, and any power in the society is somehow personified.
By the way, have you ever though about in whose honour does our Spanish town Al-Hesiras named? “Al” is an Arabic article, a heritage of Arabic dominion over Spain. And “Hesi-Ra” was one of the hierophants name. He was the leader of one of the high zhretses tens in the time of Pharaoh Josser. Thus we pay a tribute of memory to ancient hierophants, whose conceptual power reached even our times. But sorry, I have digressed a little. Let’s return to Trotsky and Trotskyites.
Have you paid attention to one the last testament’s words? “I will die being a revolutionist, Marxist, dialectical materialist and thus atheist”. I think that Trotsky’s materialistic atheism, which he put in the window, caused his death. In the middle of 20th century the fashion on the materialistic atheism become to come to naught, moreover it gave rise to the aversion between the common people. Thus it wasn’t promising for creating a crowd scenes and the conceptual power ruled the crowd during the whole global historical process using swing of peculiar “pendulum” from materialism to idealism and backwards. The crowd couldn’t notice such swings since its memory doesn’t exceed two weeks; and hierophants understanding its nature used this “pendulum” for maintenance of stability of ruling with the crowd-“elitist” conception. The main what they inserted into this process and what allowed them to be on top of the pyramid so long was the keeping of the atheism in society in any form. The deep understanding of objective processes in the Nature and society provided the knowledge monopoly. And they used not to force the society with knowledge and preferred keeping it in ignorance and urging it to this or that choice unnoticeably, each time giving the necessary leaders.
And they managed to save this monopoly while the full oscillation period of the “pendulum” included the live of whole generations, i.e. lasted for thousands or hundreds years. In the 20th century it evidently became being estimated by decades and entered the limits of live of one generation. This event caused the appearance of people, who could not just notice such phenomenon but even investigate and understand it, between those whom hierophants considered to be dunces from the crowd. The conception alternative to the crowd-“elitist” one has appeared as naturally predetermined consequence of this objective process.
And why couldn’t another crowd-“elitist” conception appear? – Pedro Colyado, the host, asked again.
You’re right, my friend, – continued Paolo. – In that period a great amount of crowd-“elitist” conceptions pretending to be new should have appeared. And they really appeared. The mass media became to promote them, since they understand that “…foolish people use to humbly follow the novelty[53]”. But I hope you understand that any kind of crowd-“elitism”, even the most exotic, was instantly adopted by global conceptual power, since it had the widest practical experience of ruling. The two alternative conceptions existence period was rightly called a period of conceptual indeterminacy by Andrew. And it is very dangerous period, because it can entail different catastrophes. By the main goal of the hierophants at the same time remains unchanged: maintain the stability of the crowd-“elitist” pyramid in any way.
