The transition 'onwards and upwards' occurs when all nodes on previous levels have been activated via conscious awareness. Progression is collective, synthetic, active, awakened. It acknowledges and includes all other states in a similar way that an air plane must include and 'gather together' all the atoms contained within it in order to take off and fly.
The next stages of evolution will take place as we become increasingly aware of our cells. Subtler levels of reality are to become expressed through our bodies, electro-magnetic wires in our brains and nervous systems, hearts, organs and connective networks internally and externally. We dissolve into the flow of nature, seeing that we are already there.
When we truly see, via experience and experimentation, how our behaviours and actions, words and thoughts, motives and fears, desires and concerns are directed by something as simple as sensation - reality takes on a whole new meaning. It simplifies. It makes sense.
This change is inevitable. But it can be catalysed by any individual with the volition or inclination to do so.
The keys to enabling this process to catalyse as I see it are - observing and feeling fully with equanimity (detachment) moment by moment - the experience of being. To slow down into a culturally rarer temporal dimension. Patience. In these moments answers are revealed. Creativity is realised. Fulfilment is experienced. Pain is seen. Harmony is released. Paths are illuminated. Reactions are understood. Behaviours are discerned. Clarity is discovered.
Taking into consideration the difficulty of attaining these states within the structures which we find ourselves born and shackled to, will human beings realistically follow this path, or will it remain viable for only the relatively few saints and sages who have the courage to de-programme, step foolishly into the darkness, sacrifice their attachments to their bodies and programmes, cultural values, secured by fear, shame, anger and anxiety?
Sources point to the possibility that this path will practically become open to increasing numbers of people. Some major factors in this progression are population size increase, economic and technological progression and information availability. The evolution of human consciousness is the evolution of information. Although all nodes are stimulated en route, including the most destructive and seemingly contradictory, the collective realisation, like the individual, towards optimum survival, can ultimately only go along one path.
What will happen next along this collective path, I believe, is the continuation of a realisation which took off in the 60s of creating life-styles collectively with the goal not simply to provide an alternative, an escape from 'everyday modern living', but to provide a space, a means and a motivating force for the increasing numbers of individuals who want to live their lives more in line with their inner truth. Society has been experimenting with these kinds of communities for several decades now and there is much yet to learn about about how human beings can live and evolve together successfully. The Utopian ideal seems so far away, so unrealistic, so drugged-up-hippy. The words 'Utopian ideal' in themselves almost seem blasphemous to most everyday 'realists', pragmatists, who have read and learned about attempts and failings and the horrors of humanity and imminent wars and corruption and mass homicide by the very people we are supposed to have faith in. But the Bushes and the Blairs and the Hitlers are part of life's beautiful paradox - they are nature's teeth and claws, it's dark crocodile-mouth-ever-present, lurking in the still muddy waters.
There is nothing to fight against, except my own ignorance. And even then I will learn to love it like the piece of skin I peel off my sunburnt shoulder with shameless satisfaction. The obstacles are my own. They are nature's precious sculptures which once commanded meaning in the temples I constructed for them. I used to think they had to be either right or wrong. Now I realise they are neither. They just use up space. And space is quite a precious thing - especially when you want to build something new.
May all beings be liberated from fear, anxiety, confusion and shame to realise the deeper levels of peace residing in the reservoirs of their being.
