The Final Stage of the Civilizational Exam
The book A Message: Time of Unity describes our time as the final stage of a great examination — a period that many religious traditions associate with the time before Judgment Day.
The message that follows is addressed not only to the intellect, but to conscience and inner awareness.
Many people continue to live as if nothing important is happening, distracted by endless streams of entertainment and information. Yet the time has come to awaken responsibility — for ourselves, for our children, for our neighbors, and for humanity as a whole.
This responsibility cannot remain only in words. Each person must determine their own course of action according to their conscience, their social position, and their ability to influence the world around them.
Be proactive. Begin to act.
Encourage those around you to think, reflect, and take responsibility as well. The pressures on humanity are increasing, and many systems are being built that may reduce human freedom and independence if people remain passive observers.
Therefore, every person must do what they can — even in a small place — to resist lawlessness, immorality, and impunity.
Start thinking with your own mind.
Act according to your conscience.
Form your own opinion about what you read, hear, and witness.
Ancient Warnings and Modern Events Converge in Our Time
Over the past few centuries, the population of the Earth has grown to several billions despite wars, epidemics, and mass migrations. Many people wonder how such rapid growth became possible.
In the interpretation presented in A Message: Time of Unity, our world is not the only inhabited world in the universe. Other civilizations also exist that follow similar developmental cycles.
In some of those worlds, the full cycle of civilization has already reached its completion.
At the end of such a cycle, a special book is revealed — a book symbolically described as the Book with Seven Seals or Seven Lampstands, a structure explored in the system of the Seven Sacred Tables.
According to the author, the same book is revealed in each world when the civilization approaches its final examination.
In our world, this revelation occurred in late 2019.
From that moment, the final examination period for both humanity and individual souls began.
Some time later, Judgment Day follows.
What Happens at the End of a Civilizational Cycle?
In those worlds where the cycle has already ended, the souls of people who surpassed the purely animal level of existence moved to a higher stage of life.
In this interpretation, the final civilizational exam reveals three fundamental choices:
- the choice between conscience and indifference
- the choice between truth and deception
- the choice between responsibility and passive conformity
The souls that failed to grow during their human lives dissolved and ceased to exist.
However, those who showed some growth but did not reach the required level were granted additional time. Such souls were allowed to incarnate again in other worlds — including ours — shortly before the final examination.
This, according to the author of A Message: Time of Unity, is one of the reasons why the population of our planet has increased so dramatically in recent centuries.
Many people live mechanically, absorbed in distractions, unable or unwilling to analyze what is happening around them. They remain passive, divided, and indifferent.
Such tendencies have always existed in human history, but never in proportions as visible as today.
The Role of the “Divine Matrix”
In earlier periods of human development — the long era of learning — humanity was guided by a system sometimes described metaphorically as a Divine matrix.
This guiding structure created conditions for people to encounter both darkness and light throughout many lifetimes and circumstances: poverty and wealth, health and illness, loyalty and betrayal etc.
Through these experiences, the soul could grow.
In earlier eras, traditions, social norms, and moral rules maintained a certain level of order within society.
But during the final examination period, many of these restraining structures weaken. This allows the true character of individuals to be revealed.
What Is the Purpose of This Examination?
During this final stage, many limitations that once restrained human behavior have been reduced.
Immorality, cruelty, betrayal, and cultural decline appear increasingly visible in many areas of public life.
Yet you will hardly hear religious leaders, politicians, journalists, or bloggers stand before a public audience or speak on television and say: “Here is a book whose revelation was foretold since ancient times.”
But no authority can make the choice for you. On the Day of Judgment, no one will answer for your soul except yourself.
Therefore, every individual must examine events carefully, think independently, and act according to conscience rather than blindly following the majority.
In A Message: Time of Unity, this book is interpreted as the long-anticipated revelation associated with the Book with Seven Seals or the Book with Seven Lampstands.
Awakening Responsibility
Therefore, now is the time for inner growth.
Each person must form their own understanding of what is happening in the world and determine their own response.
But awakening oneself is not enough.
People must also help awaken those around them — through conversation, reflection, and the sharing of ideas.
Humanity stands at a decisive moment.
Awareness, conscience, and responsible action will determine the direction of our future.
According to the perspective presented in A Message: Time of Unity, the time remaining before the final judgment of civilization may be shorter than many imagine.
