First Human to Attain Liberation

February 1996  

Q:  Could you say something about the first human to have attained liberation? It would seem that this person is important to the historical legacy of the whole of humanity and that something should be known about her or him.      

     This is a very good question. Though human species had, from the beginning, full capacity, the way to utilize that capacity was not known. Early humans practiced rituals and religious rites which were more formal and did not lead to liberation. It was not until perhaps the middle of the matriarchal age when a great woman came, highly evolved and lived among the human beings, teaching them the true path of mysticism. It was at this time that liberation was attained by this lady and a path for mystical realization set down for the first time in the history of humanity. She was then given the status of a goddess and worshiped in ancient cultures, long forgotten. It was upon a small island in the Mediterranean sea that she had her temple and initiated her followers into the path of self realization. They were mostly women; it was the age of the goddess. And after her, there were other women who took the teachings and spread them out and the height of the religious and spiritual development was reached. Many initiates experienced awakening of consciousness and there were those who attained. At the same time, other cults developed in other parts of the world but she was the first upon this planet to gain spiritual wisdom and realization.  From that time forward, human evolution was greatly enhanced and the rituals which the human beings performed began to have more meaning and substance than to simply ward off ill will and evil. They began to express adoration for the divine in the form of the mother.

Q: When was the matriarchal period?  

    She was 35000 years ago.  

Nirmegha commented on how long it took from one million years ago to 35000 years ago for this to happen.      

     Such is the way of evolution, that is why this human birth at this time is so precious. It cannot often be gotten, such potential. It is rare among the evolving species. So no one should waste this opportunity they are being given.
