UTOPIAN SOCIETY- Plato, The Republic
Utopia is based mostly on Plato’s Republic. In The Republic, Plato expounds on his idea of an idea society. The society is basically characterized by an abundance of equalism and a general pacifist attitude. The citizens are however ready to wage battle should the need arise. Poverty and misery are non-existent. Laws are reduced to the basics. There are no lawyers. Citizens do not need to go to war. Instead mercenaries from neighboring states are hired in the hope that they would be extinguished in their missions thus reducing the evils in the world.
Plato’s Utopia is a religious one. In The Republic, Plato expounds his belief in the Form of the Good which actually refers to God. He compares the Form of the Good to the sun. He says that just as the sun radiates light, so the form of the good radiates truth. Plato believes that the highest form of knowledge is the form of the good, from which all things that are considered just derives their worth. Humans are bounded by duty to find the good, but no one can hope to achieve this without philosophical reasoning.

Stop, stop, do not speak. The ultimate truth is not even to think.
- BUDDHA
he was a messanger of truth as was jesus- read the following- pass it on- become a messenger of truth for a utopian society!
A human can not operate in a capatilist society the spirit yearns for a utopian society of unity. The ultimate truth is not complex- it is so simple. I know it- I am enlightened to it- yet I have been disabled by Capitalist brainwashing inflicted on all. They have disabled my ability of communication, confidence and they drive you to think yourself inferior and a insane, but thats what they want you to think- and you need to remove yourself from the illusion of capitalist society to see what a mess of ignorence it truely is, those who keep going (who are few like I) without becoming or thinking themselves insane or commiting suicide or having a breakdown (which capitalist society programmes us to do- it is so clear!). Let us change it! let us rise up and awaken all to this simple truth, Awaken the leaders to change it- human power and materialism are meaningless (as the body itself dies- the temple of the spirit). Jesus himself tried to tell us it! He was a messanger of truth! as am I. There have been many throughout the ages upon whom silly complex religions have been formed- but they were trying to convey the ultimate, simple truth! They were messangers of truth! Jesus told us “human wisdom is meaningless” he pushed for a utopia- that was his TRUE message!- Return to EDEN! escape this matrix within which we are blinded to the truth- “they have eyes but do not hear, eyes but do not see” no complex anylisys is needed it is right in front of us- so clear in fact that 99 % of people either don’t see it or ignore it! Remember Eden? God told them not to eat of the tree of knowledge- Knowledge blinds to the ultimate truth! The more human knowledge or wisdom a human possesses the more they complicate things and the blinder thay become to the simple ULTIMATE truth! Bhuddists are perhaps the only people who have realised and acknowledged this ultimate truth- their messanger of truth succeeded! the monks live in a utopian like society where materialism is meaningless!
This is the 21st centuary the time is ripe to acknowledge and finally re-embrace this truth- it has been too long- let us return to Eden, know brotherly love, love one another and live as in unity in happieness joy peace and let us experience a heaven on earth instead of the capitalist hell in which we now live
JOIN THE REVOLUTION FOR HUMANITY, FOR SALVATION, FOR UTOPIA, FOR TRUTH!
words in themselves are so limiting and are designed to limit and disable us to- if only you could hear my soul truely you would understand
That is why buddhist monks practice sounding- words are meaningless in reality also- look again to Jesus who when faced with death would not speak to defend himself- he knew the people were too blind to see the truth and there was nothing he could say- so very saddening- “Forgive them lord they know not what they do!”
Ignorance= the worst condition- but a condition in which we all live under in this capitalist society- it’s an illussion- WAKE UP!
Remember the saying: “God is all around us”? In reality this means TRUTH is all around us! it is right there in front of you- all you have to do is choose to accept it! like a present, it is the most glorious present of all beyond all materialism- something far, far greater
will you choose to accept it and become a messanger of truth? Or choose the path of ignorance, live a pointless material and power hungry life, till your body decays and dies? And your spirit is deeply saddened by the whole poinless experience by which you lived on earth?
make a difference- none are superior all are equal- Jesus stressed this too as have other religious messangers- messangers of truth
Simply think of death in itself! embrace it and that feeling it brings with it- and you come to realise how utterly ridiculous capitalism, human power Wisdom and materialism truely are.
PUSH FOR UTOPIA! SO WE CAN BE TOGETHER AGAIN AS BROTHERS not hating one another and despising, envying others- no negativity only happieness, peace, joy, contentment and much else words can not convey
our time on this earth can be a wonderfull, beautifull glorious thing- all we have to do is accept the TRUTH! and live as it was meant to be; at one with each other and nature! not at each others throats, aggitated, dissatisfied and depressed in our selves and in the world itself. The world is what we make of it! Make the leaders realise that all are equal- that power and materialism are ultimately meaningless and the persuit of such is absurd! Liberate this earth and all people so we can be globally unified the greatest natioin this earth has ever seen! since Eden itself (which is a metaphore for how things used to be and could again be) so reject human wisdom, embrace the Ultimate Truth and push for UTOPIA- people have been brainwashed to think of this as idealism- but it is reality! or how it should be! Let us live in heaven, paradise, no more suffering, humanity has suffered enough, time for change is ripe- over ripe-make a stand NOW! For Truth! For Humanity itself! For Utopia! Rise Up and make them understand! for eveybodies sake- everyone is suffering (be it body or soul)- liberate all humanity!
