The World and Mankind.
In my room I have the following items on my shelf; a small globe of the world (Scale 1: 90 000 000), a pyramid sinker (four-sided pyramid) and a silver coin. When I look at these items, and understand them, I have a better understanding of the world that we live in. This scale represents the world in the period of the Roman Empire.
The globe represents the world with all its many countries and continents. The pyramid-model represents mankind (Genetical Hierarchy). The coin represents fate, and the fact that everything is pre-determined. When you look at all three, you have the complete picture…
For an idea of the scale in the 21st Century, you need a bigger pyramid-model. You need different sizes for different time-periods in human history.
The balance between the globe and the pyramid, has an optimum level. Should you exceed the optimum level, the proverbial 'pressure-gauge' will go into the red.

In other words if you take the earth's surface, and take an amount of square meters thereof towards an individual human being; there would be an optimum ratio between the two.
