LINKING MINDS AND AWAKENING INNER POTENTIAL

BARBARA MARX HUBBARD

I think the next stage of evolution, the future, has been intuited by the mystical and religious experience of the whole human race. I think our generation has added to it, the technologies of transcendence, and that we are about to go through the eye of the needle—to link minds and become one, not by human engineering alone, but by the tendency of evolution to form whole systems.

And whoever can’t or is not attracted to being part of that whole will select out, and what will come at the next stage will be totally whole-centered God-centered beings, attuned to coordination and beginning to take our place as a universal species in the universe full of life. And what’s being required of us now is to acknowledge the degree of our creativity within, to identify the spark in us, in particular terms what it wants to do next. What kind of work? What kind of gift do each of us have for the human society? And then take the initiative to take the first step, to act on your own capacity.

In order to do that, you have to link up with somebody else. So start networking, start finding, join the World Future Society. Read The Aquarian Conspiracy. Buy Networking, which will tell you what to do. Call up your local church and find out what kind of activities exist. And then begin your own process of inner listening. Recognize that each of you has an inner voice that is connected to the entire force of the universe and begin a form of inner dialogue with that higher part of your being, and you will find you have a wise self. And that wise self must be cultivated because the external reality no longer tells you what to do.

So if you can’t find the inner God, you get very confused. But the fact is, the good news is everyone has an inner self. But you have to listen, and you have to act. And with that, start developing activities to make something better right where you are. If every one of us did just that, it would all work.
