There are many people who no doubt question whether humanity has within it the lofty potential described above, and whether utopian society is a real possibility or just a fantastic dream.

We can argue in favor of these by noting that our near universal and perennial desire must inevitably bring them about. We may also say that whatever we can conceive, we can create. The ideals presented on this website, and by others elsewhere, certainly offer a plan for exactly that.

We may even defer to a higher authority and say it is Destiny or Divine Will that it be so, and that the growing awareness of such ideas and their implementation are signs that it is in fact coming about.

However, there is a far simpler, more earthy and compelling proof that utopian life is not only possible, but also is built in to us as human beings. More convincing is that this proof comes from science, not philosophy, religion, or any other so-called 'speculative' field.

The proof is the commonly known scientific fact that mankind uses 5-15% of his mental potential. Einstein is thought to have used 25% of his. Looking throughout history at the enormous innovation and progress of mankind using just a fraction of his inborn capacity, we can only guess what we are capable of through any degree of awakening. Even if we assume a cumulative gain - that the added 85-95% of our brain capacity would improve our quality of life 5-20 times - we would see great strides toward utopia. But more likely, the results would tend more toward exponential gain, with genius feeding off genius, and quantum leap begetting even greater quantum breakthroughs. In that case, quality of life gains of 100-1000 times, or more, are likely.

There is another implication of the 5-15% phenomena though. It suggests not only that we are inherently capable of utopia, but that it is indeed our destiny.

Evolution theory states that anatomy & function evolve to meet current survival needs. Yet our brain capacity has 'evolved' far beyond our survival need. What's more, this evolved capacity isn't even being used. This cannot be explained by current evolutionary theory.

Because our potential far exceeds our current use, humanity must have devolved, not evolved. We have been created with a high potential, one that we have lost and now are evolving back to. (This idea is fully discussed in Journey of the Soul.)

This offers proof that we are created for a higher purpose by a higher mind, and that there is indeed an evolutionary plan that we are following. It also means that the growing awareness and acceptance of utopian ideas are indeed signs that the evolutionary plan is coming to fruition. When in the long history of humankind have utopian ideals been so clearly and completely laid out? To build anything we must first conceive it, and our conceptual detail indicates that higher mind is manifesting on earth.

If we have indeed devolved from some idyllic life that we have lost, we should not be surprised to find some record of that, particularly in our older civilizations. And we do.

The ancient Vedic culture of India records four ages, or 'yugas', that mankind cycles through. The lowest, named 'kali yuga', is a time of great strife, conflict, and suffering. Vedic cosmology indicates it is the age we are in now. It is immediately followed by a Golden Age, 'sat yuga', marked by peace, harmony, and the full flowering of human potential. Also, brief periods of sat yuga-like conditions lasting 1,000 years or so, are part of the longer yuga cycles.

The Orient also records an ancient time of prosperity and well-being on earth. Interestingly, one of the main sources of the lore is the world's oldest known sex manual, which taught sacred sex techniques from the Taoist perspective. The text, called The Sexual Counsel of the Plain Girl, records the advice given by three concubines to the Yellow Emperor, Huang Ti, who is believed to have lived in the 27th century BCE. There are several versions of the text; the following one, from the White Tigress Manual, includes this mention of earlier times:

Lennon brought IMAGINE to the forefront, but like his mortal being it has faded to organic matter. Where has the spirit gone, the desire, the need , the sensation; for individual and collective peace, for comfort, for sensuality, for serenity, for love, for life.

These are strange days indeed....

I forgot about that song -- thanks for the reminder. I think it was so powerful because it inspires that which starts the process of creating a better world: desire. That's what I was aiming to kindle when I wrote my piece.

The 60's certainly had its utopian idealism. Where has it all gone? I think deep down its still there, its just that in its infancy, people thought 'all we have to do is believe in it', etc., etc. When it didn't just magically happen, people stopped trying and the desires went underground. People still want it, they just don't know how to create the reality of it.

That's why its so important to show how these spiritual ideas translate into practical programs that will create ideal government, economy, health, education, etc. That's the purpose of the Sacred Sex Society Forum -- first to explain the sacred sex principles that apply to all areas of life, then to show that application in each area.

I think when people have a practical plan before them and see a way to actually create what they desire deep in their hearts, that they'll truly embrace it and make it happen.
