EDITORIAL Sub Specie Aeternitatis: A Moment Out of Time May 12-Our historians are monumentally incompetent. Things do not happen: Rather, they are made to happen. But made how? By tricks? By schemes? By the kind of "knowledge" produced by ambition? By calculation? On May 10, a few of us were privileged beyond all measure to partake in a unique, and indeed an epochal historic encounter with the 93-year-old Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr., on a hilltop in Virginia. The influence, and along with it the memory of his presentation there, will long outlive everyone who was present. And yet, even so, LaRouche stated that it was only the first of a series; where this will go in the immediate future can hardly be imagined. This is a man who has profoundly changed the history of the Twentieth and Twenty-First Centuries, - with completely deliberate intention, but by using nothing but his own highly controversial methods. He has changed the history of these decades using his mind alone, without weapons or budgets. Or whatever weapons or budgets he may have had at any time, he obtained using his unique methods, while he was "understood by very few, and supported by no one," as Einstein said of Johannes Kepler. How is this possible? Common sense and practicality reject it completely, - yet it has happened. Not only that, but it is happening now. And it was visibly happening on May 10, - for those who were able to see it. Neither a transcript nor an audio recording could capture anything of the eye-to-eye communication of May 10. That you can only reproduce for yourself, inside yourself. But we can begin to get at it by stating what it is not. Common-sense thinking separates out goals, methods, ideas, and motivations as four distinct things, - four types. But for LaRouche and for the other heirs of Plato, such as Russia's Vladimir Putin, they are not separate at all: They are all just different views or images of precisely one and the same quality, somewhat as when you view one diamond (and through it the world), through various of its different facets. The true and the only source of the power to change history, - the only source of history, - is the inexhaustible spring of the one single "quality," which was at the center of LaRouche's presentation of May 10. He began it by saying that he was devoting the remainder of his life to rescuing human creativity. He went on to say that he was in process of making improvements in his movement, that it must rise to a higher standard. History hangs in the balance. Some of LaRouche's words on that occasion are reported below, but these words are only the palest shadows of what was being communicated.
