Beyond the Utopian Ideal Paperback – Illustrated, March 1, 2014

This book has helped me see how I have been looking in all the wrong places for a life that truly fits me. Not only does Gary Douglas describe the Uptopian Ideal but he also shows the reader how it is all an illusion designed to keep a person from living a life that is a contribution to them and the planet. Getting free from the Utopian Ideal allows one to create from infinite possibilities, new realities that gift each of us with joy and ease of living that brings more life to this world and our futures. This book was an eye opener and has given me renewed vision that something else - something more glorious and wonderful is possible!

What's the difference between Utopia and Now? A choice. It's always been a choice, and because we are all infinite beings, choice is all it has ever been or will ever be. As an "old hippie", my generation could be called the Utopian Idealist generation. The problem with that is that Utopia is always "out there" somewhere else in the future. In this breakthrough work, Gary Douglas thoroughly disavows and crushes these beliefs so that all is left is you in the now with a choice. A powerful position indeed--although many of us never have accepted that power. After reading this book, you will... Check it out.

Great Book

I've read all of Gary's books. My favorite thing about Gary's writing style is no matter where you are, the material will rise up to meet you as an invitation to a different reality. If you are looking to add and create something different in the world, this a great book for you. "Beyond the Utopian Ideal" gave me practical tools, questions and different points of views to explore. I loved it and will read it again and again.
