The deplorable state of peace in which both parties participate right after the majority of wars, could be due to the fact that, contrary to strategy, the air of high strategy mostly remains in an “unknown land“ that hopes to be explored and comprehended. In the second and third part, I have explored that “unknown land” with the mathematical-historical principles and with the human means as a strategic synthesis of the mathematics of history, thus opening a new field without prospection and leaving the mathematics of history as an basic element of future studies, in its application for war and for peace.
It should be remembered that this is a High Strategy or National Strategy work, which is formed by four particular strategies: Political, economical, psycho-social and armed force. Wherefore, it is a work of general interest. And to end, I quote from the Mathematical-Historical Principles deduced in my strategic synthesis:
“There should not be friction between these and classical principles. They give the result of war or, in other cases, govern the global strategy or high strategy, since they are a military synthesis of the law of history, that is, eternal laws of the art of war that dominated the whole set. Accordingly, it is necessary to keep them in mind in times of peace and in times of war in this planet”.
[THE CYCLICAL CONCEPT OF HISTORY]
The principal currents in the conceptions regarding the course of history can be reduced to two. One of them seen in history as a cycle or series of cycles that follow each other and, the other, sees an infinite straight line, without a beginning nor a foreseen end.
The concept of cycle is something very ancient and permanent in the human spirit. In the Brahmanian theory, cycles form the calendar of the gods. In ancient India the human year is made up of 360 days, without including the interpolated ones; the divine year is made up of 360 human years. One Haha Yuga is formed by 120,000 divine years and is divided into four eras of unequal duration and similar rhythm. An era is preceded by an ascending period and is followed by a phase of expiration; each one of them lasts one tenth of the principal era. The Krita Yuga is composed of 400 divine ascending years, 4,000 divine years of a principal year and 400 divine years of expiration.
The periods of the Near East are nearer to the current concepts of time. They are based on the direct observation of the stars, their interpretation of sacred books, cabalistic multiplications of the magic number, seven.
One Jewish historian in Rome during the I century, Josephus Flavius, says that the most ancient times were divided into eras of 600 years.
Sirius’ traslation movement of 1,461 years, that was the great astronomical discovery of the Egyptians, gave way to the appearance of mythological-historical conceptions on the sky. Within this period of 1,461 years, not only the processes are repeated but also the lands, in the same order of succession.
Another Egyptian cycle has a structure similar to the Indian divine year. It is made up of 36,525 years and it is said that once this cycle ends, the Golden Age will begin again on earth.
