Nugget #99 – Physical unity: 70 Nations


We saw with the first two words that the totality of the ego’s desire is expressed.  But at some point, by virtue of the ego, division must take place and thus divisions and subdivisions take place.  Meaning egos become organized differently as it finds some commonality with other egos to serve its needs or common needs (desires).  Meaning it will join with other egos provided it receives its desires for as long as it can.  Remember, the ego wants to be a loner but it can’t.  It needs others to survive.  Now lets look at the next few words.

Nations:  We find in Genesis 10 the listing of the 70 original nations.  In Genesis 11 the 70 nations, which were joined under Nimrod, were divided so the ego would be forced to seek unity at a higher level that would lead to unity with the higher altruistic soul.  The “nations” are simply a level of organization of egos around a leader of a similar acceptable ego.

Cities: Is a further breakdown of egos.  Again the egos are rallying around one central ego and thus raising that ego’s common desire among the people. 

As we look at the TNK and read about places we are to realize that the ego is the central driving force behinds man’s activity.  Thus everything in the TNK is speaking of a war going on between the ego and the altruistic soul.  Or rather the ego is resisting the eventuality of joining with the altruistic soul.
