I have had a highly redundant,
one might even choose polypathic,
graduate studies experience
spanning my adult life to date.

This began with a semester of Philosophy.
Just enough to learn I wanted something more experiential,
a more embodied communication environment of Applied Metaphysics, perhaps even polymathically experiential.

So then I began, and soon completed, studies for the Master of Divinity degree,
which has an arcane ring to it,
but basically the title implies just the opposite of what degree candidates most hope for,
to be Mastered by Divine Love,
to economically and politically co-operate
both humane and divine theological compassion
and ecological economic systems
co-invested in resilient
peace-pleasured organic systems.

Those receiving the M.Div.
hoped to apply their ecopolitical science of co-empathic trust,
our mutual Positive Association ConScientiousness,
to synergetic life systems as liturgical love ecology
or at least teleologically benign resonance;
to appreciate the organic love relationships today
we sacredly proclaim to restore pleasures of peace tomorrow,
rooted in our humane-divine nondual nature-spirit organisms
of ecopolitical integrity

Organically synergetic economies
becoming sacred political pilgrimage,
The ReConnecting Ways of DivineMind/HumaneBody,
co-mastering organic life
and sacred love
re-ligiously together.

Fortunately,
when I landed in a rural Colorado parish,
the beat-down aging poor mutually-marginalizing Mexican and Anglo faith community
invited me to reconsider further investment in administering sacraments
disconnected from ecologically healthy outcomes of co-empathic trust.

To continue as individuals,
families,
and as a multiculturally rich community
of mutually holonic,
respected,
cooperative faith,
we needed more of a Total Win/Win Makeover,
a gut economic/political rehab,
an economic design to fuel a more confluent political incarnation
into the Beloved Therapeutic EcoPolitical Community
we each long to belong synergetically within,
as religiously re-connecting integrity without.

Responding to apparent hope for stronger organizing
and planning
and budgeting
and ecological design and implementation,
and evaluation and socioeconomic progressive organic trust skills,
I accepted an invitation into a double Master of Public Administration and Community [Economic] Development degree program,
primarily taught by PhDs in Political Science;
my first among too many loves as an undergraduate at Michigan.

Here I learned, once again, that politically correct administration of bipartisan co-empathic
healthy democracy
and wealthy cooperative economic norms
mistrust 0-sum win/lose competition games,
and actively distrust authoritarian irreligious monopolistic relationships
of militarized colonization patriarchal history.

To win/win historically and culturally thrive
“follow economic wealth”
also means responsibly invite polycultural political wealth
as you would desire a personal economy of ecological health
a nondual sacred-internal/organic-external Golden Rule
of bicameral politically enlightened Mind
and economically empowered Body
nondualistic co-intelligence.

Humane ecopolitical landscapes are healthiest
and wealthiest
and wisest
when ruled by active hope

Cooperative win/win peace-pleasure potential within
as divinely polyculturing peak pantheistic ecology without,
polypathic faith in love’s synergetic trust
and organic life-empowering discovery
and curious regenerativity
of enlightening co-empathic imagination.

The U.S. Declaration of interdependent
politically peaceful Independence
and ProDemocratic Life Constitutions
were born of Enlightenment CoOperative EcoPolitics.

Applied polypathic ecopolitical science
looked a great deal like experiential polymathic teleology,
healthy compassionate purpose,
therapeutic polycultural meaning.

Democracy discerns organic win/win wealth
through co-empathic polyculturing health,
moving toward inclusive resonant resolutions
of complexly interdependent ecopolitical issues,
risks,
opportunities

Win/win social investments
re-ligiously replacing
win/lose historical-cultural divestments

Actively intending improved climate health
and less monopolistic monocultures of pathology,
whether too hyperactively warm
or too near to flat-line fading frozen
in tragic Lose/Lose despair.

Global WholeSystem economic and political problems
for effectively developing polycultural healthcare systems,
by denying anthropocentric dis-ecological pathologies,
led my confusion about a great transitional divide
between two vocational labels:
1.AnthropoCentric NonTheistic Political Scientist, and

2. EarthCentered PanTheistic PermaCulture CoDesigner.

This great cultural divide appeared front and center
more recently when I became certified as a Permaculture Designer.
Healthy synergetic polycultural systems
helped me to look more carefully at the functional intent of “political” narcissistic,
anthro-autistic
nation-based
predative monoculturing
dissociative objectives
retributive,
win/lose 0-sum,
LeftBrain dominant dualistic systemic trauma,
exclusively disembodied and competitively ideological
AnthroMind v EarthBody goals

as contrasted with land-based “permacultural” anthropocentric use-of-power/light objectives
and polycultural ecosystemic associative
restorative peace/pleasure/compassion/nutrition
co-binary 0/1 win/win re-ligioning interdependent zones
nurturing inclusively-embodied
non0-soul AnthroMind/1 Integral EarthBody
sacred/organic re-associative
revival
therapeutic goals.

As I thought more about how our normal day-to-day scientific investment in learning about power includes learning primal differences between competing win/lose phobic/paranoid disempowering issues
and monocultural monopolies of totalitarian mistrust leaning toward distrust chaos,
dissonance,
then polypathic confluence of co-empathic pronoia win/win
Anthro/Earth co-design
transcendent Light/immanent Power pattern correlations
co-arise dipolar nurturing ecopolitical creolization

AnthroEarth indigenous mindbodies regenerating sacred water
and organic manna,
the bilaterally creolizing fodder
of our ecopolitical Whole Gaian Integral
religiously ecological anti-trauma paranoid win/lose
pro-therapy learning pronoia win/win
bicameral co-intelligence.

“Permaculture” was chosen to distinguish perennially designed
and democratically self-governing landscapes
from more traditional annual economies of “Agriculture” business,
with more of a replant, spray, and harvest of chemically treated quasi-edibles,
nutritionally malignant
not so resilient fertile health of Earth’s degenerating topsoil,
leading to well-established disease
climate unease
suboptimal health-trends of ecopolitical
capital-driven anthropocentric Business As Usual.

Permaculture designs are for and on and about
and composed of inter-reconnecting sacred/organic information
rooted in past positive polyculturally climaxing
win/win communion landscape outcomes.

EarthMother’s organic economic and synergetic-sacred view of power-with ecosystemic balancing climates
co-passionately extends from exterior anthro-centric dualistic perception
to increasingly receptive interior health-enlightened empowering
indigenously nondualistic
panentheistic AnthroMind-0/1-EarthBody holistic landscapes.

If you belong to
win/lose survivalist evolutionary processes
that you do not believe care for you,
cooperatively together,
then you are less likely to achieve healthy
resonantly democratic
ecologically economic
resilient passion/peace/pleasure pronoia win/win outcomes

while you are waiting for divinely omnipotent SunFather
to dis-grace you with His overwhelming change
to a less healthy
and wealthy
and wise climate.

If you long for religiously organic processes
of EarthMother systemic health,
then you have joined the thriving revolutionary permacultural bipartisans
of healthy regenesis,
wherein lies all evidence
of healthy, and wealthy, democratic co-intelligence.
