Are We still capable of mental evolution

So in this current day and age when we're supposedly at the peak of human evolution and patting ourselves on the back i feel a little stagnant.

The propgress up until about the 60s made sense to most.
We had reached a level of civilisation where as far as anyone is concerned the average individual has ample opportunity to form a comfortable life for themselves.
Since then technology has been running rampant, ruining real social interaction and allowing people to do all the things they used to have to leave their house for in front of the computer.
Then Ginsberg and his posse of beatniks brought creative evolution back to the table and ushered in the hippie era, which was sadly hijacked and manipulated into the dirty stereotype we see today..



But all this progress is an illusion. There is no change. We're living in some sort of weird eschatological hiatus while the people who rig the game try to send out for new batteries or something.
I don't know what's going on.
There's energy for change building.
I think that when it ultimately comes it will be fairly spectacular. It's astonishing actually the way in which change has been halted. Everyone is running around saying "change change change" but on the other hand there is a curious sense in which things have become eerily dreamlike and still, while we just teeter on the edge of the end of history; and the same personalities, the same design elements, everything has looked the same in the galleries for twenty years. There is an eerie suspension.

We go on and on about progress but nothing has changed in the last few decades...people aren't any happier or any closer to working out what the fuck is going on..
The Consumerism bubble provides social insulation so when we hear about the problems in all other area's of the world we can say 'yeah what're you gonna do' and return to watching big brother.



Modern institutions depend on the transmission of a certain world view and then willing acquiescense in the truth of that world view by the populations into which it is being exported.It's like there's a kind of cultural brainwashing is necessary for modern cultures to work at all. The consequences of the acceptance of this situation is further acceleration toward catastrophe.

We live a world where people of privilege defend that privilege with tremendous establishments of armament and propaganda and the rest of the world slips into poverty, starvation, desparation and death.
This is the kind of world that rationalists fear, and it's also the only kind of world they can imagine because they are bankrupt of inspiration and ideas.
So the entire effort of the Establishment has become one of holding down panic, keeping the ball in play, keeping ordinary people and ordinary populations quiescent through drugs which are not psychedelic, through forms of media which are not transcendental and inspiring, but which are narcoleptic and deadening.
And all of it to maintain this farce of human achievement.

Asking any person what the world will be like in 20 years is going to result in a different answer every time..The apocalypse has arrived in major portions of the planet and it's only because we live within a bubble of incredible privilege and social insulation that we still have the luxury of anticipating the apocalypse whilst people in the third world face it every day.


20years...A new spiritual awakening is occurring in human culture, an awakening brought about by a critical mass of individuals who experience their lives as a spiritual unfolding, a journey in which we are led forward by mysterious coincidences

This awakening represents the creation of a new, more complete worldview, which replaces the 500 year old preoccupation with seecular survival and comfort.
While this technological preoccupation was an important step, our awakening to life coincidences is opening us up to the real purpose of human life on this planet and the real nature of our universe.

We now experience that we live not in a material universe but in a universe of dynamic energy. Everything extant is a field of sacred energy that we can sense and intuit. Moreover humans can project our energy by focusing our attention in the desired direction influencing other energy systems and increasing the pace of coincidences.

Too often humans cut themselves off from the greater source of this energy and so feel weak and insecure. Hence the manipulation and intimidation of others begins so we get attention and then energy. This competition (fear) for human energy(love) is the cause of all conflict between people.
