New Science Offers Help for Humanity

genius n. A person who has extraordinary intelligence surpassing that of most intellectually superior individuals.

Contemplate and meditate on where humanity stands today on this planet. You will readily see that the human race is going in a demoralizing, degenerative, destructive direction. If not corrected, this can only end in disaster. Indicators indicate that:

·          Crime is getting worse all the time, everywhere.

·          Drug trafficking is causing great human suffering, and increased violence and killing.

·          Water and air pollution are ruining our planet, our home.

·          Many individuals are discouraged and no longer even try to lead productive, creative lives.

·          Teenage pregnancy, especially to those who are not ready to be parents, is creating a whole underclass that is not functioning creatively and productively.

·          Global unrest continues to increase.

·          Many nations are going bankrupt.

·          Wars are being fought over who gets a piece of land, how a person should worship, and for selfish economic reasons.

 

This stressful situation is bound to shorten the life span of the human race. Well, that’s the “blue framed” (negative) image. Now that we’ve identified the problem, the next question is:

“Why do we have all of these problems?”

 

Who’s in charge here?

 

Studying and contemplating this situation at a deep meditative level, we are led back to one answer: Human intelligence. Human beings are the caretakers of the planet. This is our assignment. If we fail to do our job, we will destroy ourselves. It appears that we have reached a saturation point in our intellectual growth. Even the “intellectually superior individuals” seem to be unable to find solutions and to correct the problems that plague us today. If our intellectual capabilities are saturated, then what are we to do?

 

Is there any solution?

 

Is there some way that we can surpass the intellectual saturation of the intellectually superior individuals so that we can come up with creative new ways to deal with our problems? To do this, we cannot depend on just a few individuals. Everybody would have to develop additional mental faculties. How can people acquire additional mental faculties? The answer to that lies in the way the human brain and mind function.

 

Unused potential discovered

As you know, we have spent the last 50 years studying the human brain and mind. Our investigations have revealed that 90 percent of people use only the left brain hemisphere to think with. They do both their thinking and acting with only the left brain hemisphere. This limits these people to using only logical, intellectual, objective means to correct problems.
