Celebrating NUTOPIA, The World For Everyone
The conceptual country imagined by John Lennon & Yoko Ono
1 Apr 2015
Today The Third Eye is celebrating the birth of a conceptual country, born 42 years ago today! Manifested by legends John Lennon and Yoko Ono, contributor to The Third Eye, it is called NUTOPIA.
“Nutopia is a country that exists in all of us. John and I created this imaginary world. We called a press conference and produced a white handkerchief from our pockets and said “This is a flag to Surrender to Peace.” Not Fight for Peace, but “Surrender” to Peace was the important bit. All of us represent Nutopia”, says Yoko Ono, today.
Here is the original statement:
We announce the birth of a conceptual country, NUTOPIA.
Citizenship of the country can be obtained by declaration of your awareness of NUTOPIA.
NUTOPIA has no land, no boundaries, no passports, only people.
NUTOPIA has no laws other than cosmic.
All people of NUTOPIA are ambassadors of the country.
As two ambassadors of NUTOPIA, we ask for diplomatic immunity and recognition in the United Nations of our country and its people.

Ambassadors of Nutopia,
Think Peace, Act Peace, Spread Peace and let people know to IMAGINE PEACE.
Pretty soon, the whole world will realize that we all belong to Nutopia.
Together, we will let the other planets know that that’s what’s happening here on our planet –
That we are all together, and living life in Peace.
Lots of love,
Yoko Ono Lennon
