“The world is now too dangerous for anything less than Utopia.”
~ R Buckminster Fuller
Humanity all wants a better world. Therefore it makes sense for Humanity to consciously choose Utopia as their common destination - especeially when Utopia is simply defined as "the best existence obtainable" and given the freedom of subjective interpretation.
Actually, it not only makes sense for Humanity to consciously make choices on behalf of a better existence for All, but at this key threshold in time our Ascent clearly depends on it! For too long this civilization has willfully ignored the laws of consequence, and now the enduring cycles of Nature bring the circle around. We can move-up the spiral or slide back down – there is no steady-state in the policy of turning a blind eye to cause and effect! (And how can a planetary culture become citizens of the Universe without this basic Knowledge?)
No matter how strong, courageous, and wise the builders of a civilization, their creation will fall if not maintained by the same strong and heroic efforts to keep the structure dynamic and its core of reason intact. The energies of our time tell us that this is now best accomplished through intelligence and peace – actions which unify instead of divide – and that we should devote ourselves to the common cause of discovery while preserving our core of Liberty.
It’s important to remember that ultimately social regeneration is born from – and sustained by – Human transformation. The best existence obtainable isn’t simply going to be handed over to us or manufactured through a magical act of legislation. It will come through movements of intentional, collective effort – not always sweeping or immense – that begin first with the individual’s own efforts to transform their existence from within.
No differently than we can approach our own system of Inner transformation as a mystery to be solved, so to can the mysteries of civilization be “solved”. With a “blueprint” and a plan of action we can achieve the ultimate frontier. All that is required are acts of intentional cooperation in the discovery and implementation of New Solutions.
If the best existence for all is our ultimate goal then, truly, not only are our steps best laid in that course, it can be said that utopia is ultimately our salvation.
