Bertrand Russell’s Systemic Passions

Bertrand Russell
was intrigued by systems theory,
appalled by systemic racism
within himself and others,
corporations and churches
not recognizing each other’s wisdom
also found in temples and synagogues
and community investment banks
and poor houses.

He was also interested in political philosophy,
power of aristocrats
anticipating growing personal economic despotism
offering no respite
to green/blue democratic EarthLovers.

A contemporary of Einstein’s,
who shared Russell’s political philosophy
and perhaps his interest in 4Dimensional
prime negentropic space+time
co-arising dipolar bicameral
spatial+integral
cognitive+intuitive
physical+metaphysical systems
also sort of bilaterally co-binary

Russell writes,
“The reason physics has ceased to look for causes
is that, in fact,
there are no such things.
The law of [unilateral linear] causality
is a relic of a bygone age,
surviving, like the monarchy,
only because it is erroneously supposed
to do no [winner v loser, either/or leftbrain dominant bipolarizing] harm.”

Here, Russell’s parenthetical analogy
betrays his political philosophy
favoring naturalpir+spiritual both/and co-arising systemic democracy
of We Potentially Healthy MultiCultural EarthPeople
causing and prolonging
monoculturing
narcissistic autocratic fantasies,
anthropocentric EarthExploiting MonoTheistic Emperors.

Systemic power-with-other sentient beings
travels from caste-down to caste-up,
like root systems toward flowers,
nutritionally causal
secondarily, effected communication flowing back top to down,
like seeds embedding in Earth’s co-invested future
polyculturing fertile soil
bearing multi-restoration
springing anticipated win+win
both/and synergetic fruits

Co-arising in polyphonic apposition
complementary
mutually virtuous
more normatively resilient
than win v lose bipolar challenges
of vicious monoculturing,
too audaciously self-delusional
short-term overpowering aggressors

Like
leftbrain dominant
straight white western male predators
overlording polyculturally rich Gaia-Earth
of original nature+spirit win+win
systemic peace therapy
in which each individual ego-being
is EarthMother sacred
eco-politically born
integral and organic

For growing neurosystemic
cooperative green energy,
power-with-democratic Other,
co-binary empowerment,
co-lateral caste-abolishing enlightenment
of integrity’s systemic multiculturing potential
for climate health

Internally ego-inspiring spiraling spiritual
as externally natural rooted
organic ecosystems of co-passion
reversing monoculturing exhaustion
exploitation
expiration.

Attachments and Aversions

I wonder if
what Buddhist meditation teachings
refer to as “attachments”
and “aversions,”
a medical doctor
might label with different words,
such as addiction
and dissociative diversions.

In both frames
illusions may be recognized
and respected
as deep opportunities to learn;

Illusions and delusions are depreciated
as too risky
not to repress with blame
and suppress with shame
devoid of any therapeutic
transporting
transformative
transparent (not self-shaming)
and vulnerable (not other-blaming)
communication
with our performing EgoTherapist minds
and our engaging EcoTherapist bodies

Illusions, illustrations,
dreams and fantasies,
losses and gains,
attachments that can become obsessions
compose sensory attractions

Whether smells and tastes,
touch and feelings,
sights and sounds,
exterior reception or interior inception

May have potential
to therapeutically transport
away from addictive-compulsive behaviors
and ideations
toward a less self-obsessed integrity

Away from impulsive self-serving,
potentially predative, anthropocentric
caste preserving attractions

And toward co-passionate
and resilient pleasure

Cooperatively intended
hoped
good-faithed
good-humored

Loved,
eco-politically
and personally
and bilaterally
bicameral ego+eco integral wealth
mind+body synergetic health

Becoming completely satisfied
sufficient
simple
centered in HereSpace+NowTime

Learning from past sensory satisfying memories
informing future images
imagining resonant and resilient pleasures
climatically encompassing
all of the above
compassion+pleasure.

Addiction to cooperative multicultural
multigenerational
regenerational
and bicameral left+right
bilateral spirit-mind+nature-body
peak sensory experiences
present healthier passions and pleasures
than addictions to competitive mono-culturing
and mono-theistic
and caste preserving predator v prey
sensory risk ambivalence inside
and systemic trauma impinging
from outside

Where relationships don’t necessarily smell
or taste inviting,
don’t necessarily feel gratifying to touch
or feel inside my mind+body,
don’t transformationally transport
when compromised win v lose truth is heard
but win+win beauty is not seen,
falling short of healthy co-passion
for EarthMother’s vast polyamorous
multi-colored wealth
of ultra-nonviolent
multisensory
caste abolished
sacred+organic

Power Analysis

Power analysis
traditionally follows investment
and divestment of money
and kleptocratic energy.

Which is all fine and good,
but, as I recall,
the truth of sustainable power trends
has more to do with the healthy beauty
and the unhealthy ugliness
of where we choose to start
our co-invested redemption narrative
and where we choose to end
fixation on independent
and anthropocentric
investment choices

Evolving from
our historical revolving global dance,
green/blue health regenerative
spiraling co-passion out
and holistically co-investing in
EarthTribe’s organic pleasure life

Sacred integrity’s
meaning fully saturated,
demeaning powers evaporated.

Second Principle of HealthCare Planning

Obtain a regenerative yield,
a positive,
rather than negative, feedback loop,
better than a dissonant feedback screech
of mental v physical madness,
politically powering parties become monotheistic mobbing beatdowns,
economic corporations become cancerous hoarders,
churches designed by and for
hierarchical caste inequalities of mind v body irresponsibility
for plutocratic calculating authorities, dogmatically hetero,
male dominant

and don’t even ask caste preserving them
to start thinking outside their god-given gangs
about transgenderal nurturing opportunities
within Earth’s nondual co-arising Paradise
at hand.

How do we distinguish
between a healthy garden and a weed patch?
By nurtured nutritional outcomes,
positive yield,
inclusively diversifying so more robust profit
growing healthy wealth polyculturing potential,
including harvesting of seeds and bulbs
for our next even more cooperatively self-governing regeneration.

How do we distinguish
between a church or temple or synagogue
and a courthouse?
As above.

How do we distinguish
between playing with abundant cooperative vocations
and working against competing scarcity?
Same answer,
where seeds and bulbs
are cooperative,
organic,
unfold reverse-hierarchically, from within,
composed of complex interdependent relationships
which nutritionally enable together
Earth’s Common Cooperative Garden
producing positive nutritious yields

Health wealthing again,

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.

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.

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.

Democratic Health Party

I just read that U.S. Democrats stand in solidarity
against Trump,
but what else?
What is democracy for?

First,
democracy, rather than republican plutocracy,
here confuses collaboration against our competitive opponents
with solidarity,
which must be for both ourselves and our appositional tensions.

Second,
democracy trusts empathy
rather than mistrusting antipathy
much less active distrusting pathology
so democracy stands in solidarity
with polypathic regenerativity,
with wealth optimization as health maximization.

So,
please,
if our parties and cooperatively-owned
and managed
and cared for
healthy workplaces
wear the label of “we are pro-democracy”
then rest assured that being for healthy polycultural evolution
and against degenerative monoculturing competitions
is a humanitarian platform
not limited to gathering votes from 50% of the humane-natural population,
but capable of drawing every vote
from every mind and body of age
to become pro-health for all Earth’s species,
including this less upper-caste privileged variety
of democratically polyamorous party animal.

PolyCultural Education

Polypathic conversation with David Holmgren:

Today it is common to hear the suggestion
[polyculturally-informed] education and [compassionate communication] training
is the key to allowing people to contribute
to a more sustainable [eco-political] future.

Although I recognize the value of formal education and training
and [especially cooperatively-owned and -managed] communications media,
they are also part of the [systemic under-caste trauma] problem

[and therefore also keys to more resonantly cooperative resolutions]

preventing [LeftBrain dominant] us from a more direct [RightBrain-inductive] connection with,
and [bilateral] experience of,
the natural[-spiritual co-arising] world
through [co-passionate communicating] observation
and [bicamerally balancing] experience
[and work/play of win/win curiosity/imagination].

Much could be said about how we need to modify formal education
and the [competitively capital-hungry] media
so they can contribute better to the [polytheistic
polyamorous
polypathic] revolution,
but we need to recognize several fundamental
[Leftbrain verbally dominant thought] problems.

First,
almost all education,
and especially higher [yet not necessarily deeper] education,
is [redacted] knowledge from secondary [audio-visual] sources,
interpreted through [competing specialist] frameworks
of [limited intersectional] understanding.

Academic [exegetical LeftBrain dominant] training
that requires every idea and concept be referenced to refereed published [also LeftBrain verbally dominant] sources
is the extremity of this [conserving rather than transitioning, liberating] approach
to [reiterative memorization
of what once was normatively true
and necessarily so,
yet perhaps not exclusively or even sufficiently true
for all times and spaces and complex systems,
win+win yang/yin cobinary hypothetically tensioned with win v lose, 0-sum.]

Second,
information technology has accelerated the speed of circulation,
retrieval
and reproduction of [healthy v toxic] information
[v disinformation].
The [commercial] professional packaging
of [LeftBrain reductive] secondary experience
in [massively networked] media
promises faster and better ways
to [LeftBrain access others’] learn[ing].

For instance,
in comparison to the wildlife [ecological healthy/toxic] observation skills
and original [6-sensory-neural
sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch, feel
internal positive/negative compassion/dispassion felt)
thinking.

Third,
almost all formal scientific education is based on bottom-up reductionist [STRUGGLING EITHER/OR AGAINST BothAnd] thinking
[screening out cognitive-affective dissonance,
negative unresolved non-resonant neuropsychological issues].

While the [cooperative multi]cultural harvest from specialized reductionist thinking over the last few hundred years
has been great
[and continues to accelerate],
it is the [cooperatively self-organizing] integration
and [transubstantiating] cross-fertilization of concepts
and
[feeling potential both/and win/win] ideas
that is now providing the most fruitful results
for dealing with the problems
of the environmental crisis.

Much of this [win/win bilateral co-arising] integrated [comprehension]
is happening outside [LeftBrain dominant] educational institutions
[pathology-oriented, continuing competing-issues committed
with highly competitive ecopolitical survival issues,
including upper-caste preservation].

Ironically,
information and communications technologies
are increasing these [cooperative win/win insight] possibilities,
although this benefit is over [LeftBrain dominant win-thought v lose-feeling] content,
and [redundantly tedious] replication over [re]creation;
[degenerative oppositional feedback loops
rather than cooperative self-governing
regenerative double-binding
ego/eco-appositional loops].

Fourth,
and most problematic of all,
formal education at the higher [yet not deeper] levels
is focused on digesting massive amounts of information
within the [slow-growth synergizing, incubating] constructs
of separate [and alarmingly unequal] disciplines
and cultures
(such as [Left-Yang, EitherOr] science
and [Right-Yin, BothAnd] art
[nurturing octave-scaled regenerative functions,
like 4Base fractal group/game math,
and 4Season phylogenic reproductive cycles]).

This education lacks wholistic [therapeutic] integration
with [health-wealth positive oriented] living experience
and its insights and truths often make little [trivial felt] impression
on the underlying [Right-YinFlow nurturing resonant] structures
of [comprehensive AND compassionate] understanding
and [internally felt committed] belief [with co-empathic trust]
created by [LeftBrain might makes right] family [anthropocentric-capitalist] upbringing,
mass [consuming dominating productive values] media
and popular [nationalistic eco-political Win v Lose partisan] culture.

In many fields
we find the [global co-passion] solutions
to [ecological and anthropological] problems
are known [and felt]
but are not [regeneratively] applied
for a myriad of specific [LeftBrain constipated cul-de-sac] reasons.

The core of these problems is [competing mutually mis-communicating and therefore gradually degenerating belief systems]
which people appear to [defensive either me or they win] hold
have not been [Both Me And We-vetted] integrated with
and [regeneratively-therapeutically-cooperatively] reinforced
by their [Left+Right bicameral polypathic
polyamorous polyculturing] personal experience
[of positive health cooperatives
are not negative pathological/partisan dissociative, dissonant competitions].

Note: Wiccan transubstantiation of David Holmgren’s “Permaculture Principles & Pathways”, p. 20; adding in seasonings from Edward DeBono’s bilateral thinking and Buckminster Fuller’s synergy systems theory, and, of course, layering LaoTse generally across Yang v Yin and Yang+Yin as Left-Right creative bilaterally nondual dialectical 4D appositionality. Polycultural Education as if multiculturally informed polyamorous Earth lives aiming toward WinWin preference matters if humanity’s goal is to optimize regenerative, and minimize degenerative, eco-politically healthy ecological and wealthy anthropological co-passionate communication pleasure-felt outcomes.
