Art follows ecology
of inductive diametrical synergy
As science leads logos
through deductive dialectical simplicity
As religious culture accompanies mythos
seducing ancient dialogues
in amusing sage symmetry

ReForesting Therapy
Deep listeners, like seeds, are germinators.
Generation wears two faces,
as does development,
positive and negative,
regeneration and degeneration.
Some seeds are healthier than others.
Some are positively deviant, atypically robust,
and others are negatively deviant, flawed,
dissonant,
missing a shared median mark
some would see as sin,
which can be forgiven within oneself
by learning to forgive others
for our considerable
but largely unconsidered
negative deviant seeds.
Bill Mollison exhorts us to a global therapeutic project:
Reforesting the Earth
is one of the few tasks
left to us
to express our humanity.
This feels true and right and good,
hopeful and prophetic and WinAnthro/WinEarth,
and yet mysterious and incongruous
transformation rather than deportation.
It raises questions,
like a good parable,
and wisdom literature in general.
I can think of a time within nation-state histories
and even extended family,
tribal development stories,
when some wise patriarch might have said:
Deforesting this place
is one of the few tasks
required of us
to optimize our divine-humane potential.
Did we really have to deforest
to develop a FiveStar FirstWorld Class
to fulfill healthy humane curiosity
and deep ecological wealthy learning
to reforest this Earth
to re-express, and perhaps forgive ourselves,
our privileged LeftBrain dominant historic development?
And, whether so or no,
was Original Forest logos
also Original Sin mythos?
Risk and opportunity,
degenerative and regeneratice potential
germinating within each of Earth’s soils
and nondual mind-bodies
co-arising LeftYang-RightYin
Win+Win souls.
I wonder what Mollison means
by “one of the few” assignments.
And whom or what he believes left these therapeutic tasks
for our co-passionate fulfillment.
I like to think and feel perhaps few,
in a prime-relational sense,
is two;
that calculating deforesting trauma
is a reverse hierarchical face
of harmonizing reforestation
ecotherapy
A resonant full-octave restoration
of Paradise Lost
through LeftBrain capitalized dissonance
over RightFlow co-empathic resonance,
Of deductive deforesting as dissociated numerator
with inductive bilateral reforestation as re-associated denominator,
differential dialectal fractal-fractions
Either/Or
Both/And
sung and danced through matriarchal herstories
of organic MotherEarth with sacred FatherSun,
dominantly radiant Yes of Light
with reforesting harmonics
of EarthDay reforesting dawn
greeting EarthNight climate dusk.
Forests of seeds,
like therapeutic acclimators,
are germinators,
embryonic determinators
empowering already forgiven regenerators.
National Public Radiators
National Public Radiators
All this long week
of early spring head colds
our National Public Radio informants
and performers,
speakers and listeners,
have been about the business of raising capital investments
preferably in their corporate direction,
to support further public broadcasting
for the benefit of our children
and their children,
and so on.
While this has often felt like a guilt-inducing headache,
I was drawn into a list of statistics about NPR listeners.
Contrasts between those who do listen
and those who do not,
and,
most likely,
those who send in dollars,
and those who do not.
At first the list seemed random.
More likely to recycle,
to attend live theater,
go to the symphony,
grow gardens,
bake their own cookies,
read bedtime stories to their kids,
read anything at all.
And then I realized we are looking at social capital;
growing and re-investing in social capital.
What a permacultural designer would relabel
and spread across endangered soils and waters and souls
as eco-capital re-investment;
re-investment in ourselves
in each other’s talents and ideas and skills
in Earth’s re-creative abundance.
The economic thing sometimes not noticed
by cooperative eco-civilization re-investors:
high consumers tend to also be high producers.
So, while they didn’t say so,
I have heard it said elsewhere,
NPR listeners also list and lust heavily toward higher education
And rabid to-the-roots,
Straight White Male Privileged Victory Or Die,
Republicans know what that means.
Why isn’t eco-capital investment as robust
in traditional Republican neighborhoods,
as in more multicultural Democratic necks of woods
and urban forests?
Or is it?
While there may be as many answers
as there are MAGAs who do not invest in NPR,
I suspect those Republicans who prefer to NPR listen,
rather than RightWing AM Rant,
also find this positive correlation between deeper learning
and active eco-civilized re-investment troubling
to their centrist nurturing instincts and orientations.
It seems difficult to listen to an International Public Cooperative Economy
while simultaneously expecting positive outcomes
from partisan egocentric and anthropocentric
nationalistic success is divinely inspired
by God’s Invisible Hand of Independent Might Makes Right
caste preservation strategies
intentions
without public venial mentions.
While it seems harsh and judgmental
to speak cooperative prophecy to competitive strength,
we might do well to remember
with Paulo Freire
that teaching is best practiced as mentoring,
and mentoring always prefers cooperative,
more than competitive, learning
and deep listening relationship.
Political mentoring relationships that work,
whether you are part of an academic research community,
or part of an architectural design and implementation team,
or part of a cooperatively owned and self-governing corporation,
require YangStrength of balance
to fall on the side of harmony,
healthy resonance,
both-and nutritionally inclusive and diversifying wealth
Rather than snarky narcissistic capital disinvestment
through autonomous competitions,
in a monocultural assumption of EitherGod/OrEvil fundamentalism
where Earth’s historically polyculture-preferred evidence
more resonantly broadcasts Both/And
eco-civilized re-investment.
Love powers refine
political power of Win/Win cooperativity,
Fear powers define
mistrusted Win v Lose competing disempowerments
We could not have healthy and reliable growth
of empirically-supported and verified public information,
much less wealthy faith re-investment economies,
unless the power of positive eco-capital investment
overwhelms and absolves powers of negative ego-decapitation
independent capitalistic disinvestment.
But then,
I am one of those Earth-patriotic Public Broadcasters,
so sometimes my multicultural balance
can become as useless as a soap box
without two feet planted
on sacred organic ground,
not not double-bound
Starting with a head cold
and ending with an overheated brain.
Brains in MindBodies
A mind,
I think,
should be a brain
still in a living organic body
in homeostatic cooperative relationship.
A human mind
could become mid-sized, just right,
and left,
not too hot, not too cold,
not too light, not too dark and heavy,
yet sometimes too complexly dense with chaos theories
rather than synergetic creolizing hypotheses
favoring thermodynamically ego/eco-balancing biosystems,
relying on double-binding feedback loops
of endosymbiotic cooperativity
within ectosymbiotic acclimations
without
Maintaining polypathic health
of multiculturing interreligious relationship,
dipolar interdependence
slowly synergizing wealth of further enculturations
into even more polypathic bicameral balance.
A mid-sized just-right humane ecosystem
is a horrible potential to waste
to too-closed off entropic loss
of regenerative life energy,
dissipating off into cognitive v affective dissonance,
both verbal and non-verbal dissolution,
near death without open-systemic maturing time.
Aging is post-revolutionary degenerative maturation,
quieting grace.
Suicide and depression,
repression and ecopolitical suppressions
are pre-revolutionary,
before their regenerate maturing fullness
of fertile time.
A mind
is a brain
within a fertile
well-timed
pre- and post-revolutionary
sacred acclimating body.
The Dance of Fear and Love: Understanding Appositional Relations
This ancient apposition
between fear and love,
distrust and trust,
where fear reigns, love has already faded into too-distant hope;
where love co-integrates
fear can naught but evaporate.
Dipolar appositions
are bipolar oppositions wearing newer wings
of more robustly Win+Win polyculturing wealth
impoverishing Win v Lose anti-resilient
not so brilliant
polarizing pathology.
Appositional contrasts speak in transliterating dialects
trusting co-passionate truths of balanced resonance
and distrusting degenerating dissonance,
arrogance,
confusion,
apathy,
absence of sustaining interdependent curiosity,
dipolar co-gravitating courage.
Those who dance through polyamorous designs
for polyculturing love’s integrative outcomes,
extinguish LeftBrain’s angry anthropocentric fears
disintegrating narcissistic outgo.
Abolishing Apostacy
Wealth of Integrity
You have heard it said
Turn your swords into plowshares.
We, both Left and Right, echo that to add
Turn from planting bombs and bullets and barbs
to planting trees, and shrubs and carbon-infested fibers.
If our problem is too extreme climate change,
Our resolution is to plant trees, not bombs,
plant shrubs, not refuge-denying inhospitable shrugs,
plant and re-invest carbon, not climate runaway,
through co-investment capital values,
not egocentric hoarding pathologies.
Does this sound like Republican apostasy?
Apostatize–to depart from orthodox integrity.
Hypostatize–to treat and/or regard as a distinct substance
or reality.
Antonym: Synergize
To compassionately communicate
is to integrate
by bringing together
what was LeftBrain hypostatized.
Domesticate: To welcome and train for matriarchal cooperative purposes;
exclusive of patriarchal hoarding and/or self-indulgent divestment
degenerating Earth’s synergetic economy.
Capturing and Hoarding (aka LeftBrain Piracy): Sins of long-term hypostatization,
loss of nutritional flowstream,
dissonant upper-caste privileged choices
with Win v Lose 0-sum assumptions
where ego/eco-systemic Both/And options
are co-empathically apparent,
but kept non-communicated
separate.
Matriarchal AntiThesis
(like Gaia Hypothesis):
Carbon/capital re-investment in global domestication
is dynamically equivalent to
Win/Win healthy-wealth root systems
of and for compassion values v dispassion disvalues.
To LeftBrain hypostatize thoughts
and not RightBrain synergize feelings
as revolution without evolution,
as authoritarian Yang without domesticating Yin
as patriarchal dualism is to matriarchal nondualism.
We need to comprehend
as of yesterday,
if not earlier,
a profound ecotherapeutic difference
between hypostatizing YangLeft v YinRight dualistically bipolar,
mutually repellent [EitherLeft/OrRight deductive verbal dominance]
And creolizing Yang with Yin nondually dipolar,
co-arising + co-gravitating [Both/And co-empathic intuition].
Just as absolute Yang power corrupts absolutely,
universally,
foundationally,
fundamentalistically,
elitist-plutocratically,
egocentrically,
ethnocentrically,
anthropocentrically,
So too, absolute love transforms integrity, synergetically,
symmetrically,
zero-sum polypathically,
polynomially,
poly-enculturingly,
eco-politically
cooperative nutritionally
health as wealth of regenerate value,
ego/eco-normative
upper-caste isolated abolition.
Integrity’s togathering key toward climate health,
internal and external,
psychological and political and economic and ecological,
is to look at how we cooperatively reinvest in carbon catchment
and disinvest of carbon exhaust,
loss,
waste
of competitive breath.
WinLeft v LoseRight sub-optimal thinking.
But, the same could be said of water
and oxygen
as breath
and love and integrity compassioning,
rather than hypostatizing,
co-arising interdependence.
LeftBrain hypostatizing domination of history,
when we could also be RightBrain synergizing
her domesticating democratizing creation story,
is rooted in egocentric Win v Lose hypocrisy,
denial of immediate and continuously interdependent co-responsibility
for who we already healthy are
and whom we are not cooperatively wealthing,
yet.
As long as our LeftBrain enculturation lords it over a lower class,
We are all RightBrain belonging poor.
As long as we fail to recognize a LeftBrain segregating function
We are all RightBrain outside our ethical-normative fertile fold.
As long as we capture and hold prisoners
for their further degeneration,
We are, none of us, optimally free
to enjoy our polyamorous
panentheistic
Gaia Hypothesis sweet spot.
Optimizing Healthy Investments
If we were to follow a health model
for optimizing both economic and ecological wealth outcomes,
then investment in public and private
compassionate communication educational systems
for active ecotherapeutic practice
and developing cooperative, self-regulating systems,
would become our primary fiscal investment
While surgical and ballistic revenge
against past overly competitive pathologies
would become a more secondary retaliatory Win v Lose
0-sum defensive strategy,
reserved for proportional disinvestment
from further nationalistic and paternalistic sickness.
So, we might have a slow-growing Educational Defense Department
with a big multicultural peace-mentoring curriculum
and proportionally appropriate re-investment priorities
for growing active peace inside
and outside.
And, a more slow-shrinking Military Police Surgical Department,
with a much smaller multicultural re-education agenda
for WinMind+WinBody ecosystemic strategies
for evolving long-term cooperative resonance
to re-establish peaceful needs with justice wants
self-regulating within
as graciously extending our global family
through further revolutions of resilient networks.
Two seminal Biblical teachings seem relevant
to this health and prosperity model.
Those who live by ballistic Win v Lose swords,
shall die by the sword,
alone.
Yet, those who live by active communal co-redemptive love,
shall die in love,
as One Interdependent MindWant+BodyNeed
together.
If our personal and political therapeutic love-lives
are a two-edged sword,
all of regenerative history
and degenerating past monocultures
conjoin to teach us compassionate health-regulated education
best remains our Yang front regenerate edge,
leaving competitive Win v Lose military divestment priorities
to a more secondary defensive strategy
for remedially,
surgically,
proportionally,
reverse-hierarchically protecting freedom and democracy and trust and love,
internal and external,
where cooperative economic and ecological climate balance
requires us all to sustain short-term narcissistic loss
within EarthTribe’s organic health and sacred prosperity,
eco-regenerating intention.
When peace education and public cooperative-ownership
and co-empathic governing
cultural praxis,
multicultural interdependence
of nurturing voices and nutritional sources,
catchment and re-investment,
indigenous wisdom of compassion
no longer lead our personal and public investment priorities
Then competitively dying by a Win v Lose sword
will lead our way to further climates of hubris,
ego v eco unbalance,
caste supremacism,
anthropocentrism
Rather than caring for Earth,
gathering EarthTribes,
regenerating cooperative relations with Others
to optimize our health wealth educated
co-empathic Selves.
Abolishing War by Preserving Peace
Said the caste abolitionist
to the preservationist
What Earth needs outside
we both feel inside
What people want inside
fills and spills outside
Following polycultural
polypathic
polyamorous
polytheistic Golden Rules
Ways
Means
Golden Ratios.
Caste abolition,
like anthropocentric constraint,
and unlike narcissistic complaint,
engages transformative potential
to recreate an organic civilization
in which every sacred body
has what is needed
and every polyamorous mind
has what is wanted.
Every neurological system
well-trained
and peace-making empowered
to recognize
and responsibly self-correct
any dissociative dissonant differences
between body needs
for kind touch
and mind wants
for compassionate communication.
Catchers and Pitchers
Catch and store my energy,
said Yang-Sun to Earth-Yin.
Digest and absorb nutritional communication,
said Earth
to Virgin Eve
to Fertile Adam.
Volcanize and subduct Earth’s embryonic Commons
says Mother Earth
to ReGenerative Ecologists.
Challenge and then creolize resulting multicultures
say EcoPolitical Democratizers
to TrustBuilding Psychologizers.
Deduce separate competing
physical individuations
to induce integrating cooperative
metaphysical relationships
said LeftCerebral Crown
to Right ElderRoot
bipartisan NeuroSystem.
Consume stored wealth deposits
to produce capital-health learnings
through re-investment in further nurture earnings
say long-winded Cooperative Economists
to short-winded Private Wealth
seeks Public Health Professionals.
Patriarch-led revolutions
retrofit Matriarch-bled evolutions
said Yang answers
to co-revolving Yin questions.
Produce positive regenerators
not disinvested degenerators
say Syncretic Prophets
to and for and of and within BiCameral PolyPaths.
Reconnect Yang/Yin appositions
to co-arise Win/Win ego/eco-generate
dialectical Left/Right non-oppositionals
said Laotse
for cooperatively governing resilient climate health,
and not DNA v RNA struggling pathologies.
Catch and digest health
to store and re-invest wealth
said Yang-FatherSun
to EarthMother-Yin
and reverse dispassionate non-communication
again.
Roots and Eggs
Trees and seeds
like embryonic eggs
are each fed by root systems
intending dialectical maturation,
like Easter lillies,
and seasonal, more dormant, decomposing purgation,
heading toward further cooperative re-investments
or waste
depending on our choices
and way of seeing,
more competitive or more cooperative.
The seed of human nature’s nutritional system
are the trees of Earth’s natural root systems,
ergodic and phylogenic,
designed for ecopolitical cooperation
more than ego-individual,
or ethno-tribal-creedal,
or anthro-super-narcissistic
monoculturing competitions.
Trees and seeds
and new-life eggs
are each fed by history’s more cooperatively-owned
and governing
root nutritional systems.
