Paradise ReForested

Seeds, like mentors, 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, robust,
and others are negatively deviant, flawed,
unbalanced,
missing an exegetical median mark,
some would see as sin,
which can be forgiven within oneself
by learning to forgive others
for our collective 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 WinWin,
and yet mysterious and incongruous.
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
left to us
to optimize our divine-humane potential.

Did we really have to deforest
to develop a FiveStar FirstWorld Class
of healthy humane curiosity and deep ecological wealthy learning
to reforest this Earth
to re-express, and perhaps forgive ourselves,
for our own LeftBrain dominant historic development?

And, whether so or no,
was Original Forest logos
also Original Sin mythos?
Risk and opportunity,
degeneration and regeneration,
germinating potentials within each of Earth’s soils
and nondual mind-bodies
co-arising LeftYang-RightYin WinWin souls.

I wonder what Mollison means
by “one of the few” assignments.
And whom or what he believes left these therapeutic tasks
for our healthy-wealth fulfillment.

I like to think and feel perhaps few,
in a prime-relational sense,
is two;
that calculating deforesting harvest
is a reverse hierarchical face
of harmonizing reforestation,
a resonant full-octave restoration
of Paradise Lost
through LeftBrain dominance
over RightFlow relational resonance,

Of deductive deforesting as numerator
with inductive bilateral reforestation as re-denominator,
differential dialectal fractal-fractions
Either/Or
Both/And
sung and danced through matriarchal herstories
of MotherEarth with consort Father Son,
dominant radiant Yes of Light
with reforesting harmonics
of dualdark EarthDay reforesting dawn
greeting EarthNight climate dusk.

Forests of seeds, like therapeutic acclimators, are germinators,
embryonic terminators
trending toward already forgiven regenerators.

Losing My Competing Minds

A mind,
I think,
should be a brain
still in a living organic body
in homeostatic normative 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 inter-relationship,
dipolar interdependence
slowly creolizing 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 energy,
dissipating off into cognitive-affective dissonance,
both verbal and non-verbal dismay,
near death before 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.

Tragic Climates for Comedians

If we invested more educational mentoring time
sharing our own mixed-use and neglectful abuse
poetic wisdom stories,
and less time memorizing exegetical LeftBrain histories,
we might more cooperatively learn to live healthier together
and to internally die less, apart.

An under-exploited difference between comedy and tragedy
may discover you have a story to vulnerably share
more than recover from some dogma you compulsively need
to competitively seed and repeat,
because you are so sure your audience
is too dim to fully appreciate
your authentic story
vulnerably glory and gory shared.

Humus is a profound icon of eco-creolization
toward the regenerative fertility of soils
Just as humor is a surprising ergodic pattern of ego-re-creolization
toward cooperative extension of polypathy,
ecopolitical empathy,
universal trust more than reductively dominant mistrust.

It seems climatically important,
and chronically profound,
for educators and politicians
and other public/private health v pathology professionals
to notice the primary audience for poetry is poets,
for philosophy, is other philosophers,
for math, is other mathematicians,
for scientific specialists, other co-branded specialists,
yet for cooperative economics, everyone
of all species
and all regenerations of time’s health-wealth potential.

This feels like both an EarthDay risk
and a post-millennial therapeutic climate opportunity.

Poetry and philosophy are written,
and most broadly distributed,
produced,
networked,
cooperatively-reinvested,
with other non-elite poetic and philosophical souls in mind,
some with poetic and wisdom-loving skill-sets themselves,
and some who have only hungry unfulfilled cooperative-yearning souls.

Many of these hungry,
more chronically stressed,
RightBrain dominantly represeed,
casualties,
are among our homeless,
our uncounted unemployed and under-vocationed,
our brothers and sisters,
our children,
with more mental pathologies
than mental health.

How could we hope to teach,
much less co-mentor,
co-redeem,
healthy and wealthy science and math,
much more reading and multiculturally honest writing,
by removing their historical roots
in poetry and philosophical experience
and multicultural (0)-sum health-wealth
emerging from optimally regenerative WinWin ego/ecotherapies?

It feels ecopolitically
and intellectually dishonest
to further subsidize the distopian assumption of Might Makes Right
EitherWin/OrLose evolutionary theories
when Earth’s multicultural evidence
for Right (0)-Sum BiLateral Flow Relationship
building co-invested nutritional wealth
evolves and revolves so regeneratively redundant
and reiterative
and abundantly obvious BothLeft/AndRight.

Our tragedy is not just that patriarchal competition culture
is currently overpopulating the FirstWorld supremacist face of Earth,
although that is a profound climate health issue,
Climates of struggling health
and humanely unfulfilled landscapes of potential wealth
are even more seminally rooted
in LeftBrain cultural dominance
currently in last historical gasp
of over-populating each of our capitalist monoculturing days
to the point of extinguishing therapeutic values of more cooperative nights
and reproductive rights,
with or without full moons,
but under a sea of stars
now fading from view
and multicultural reweaving memory.

If we invested more time
sharing our own mixed-use wisdom stories,
and less time memorizing LeftBrain pathologies,
we might more cooperatively learn to live healthier,
with good humor, together
and to internally die less tragically, apart.

Red Sky Dawning

We already can notice
dawn unfolds a warm greeting,
a liturgical invocation,
not just because that’s the way our Earth revolves
around that Other,
too hot and terror-powerful burning Sun,
and not just because we feel this way inside
our polypathic minds,
but because of both
deductive-inductive
exterior-interior
yang-yin bilaterally interdependent
creolizing languaged reasons
of Self with Other
nondual co-arising Earth’s double-binding humane-divine acclimation,
natural-spiritual binomial balancing
cooperative
organic
dynamic
revolutionary ego/ecologically systemic

PolyCulturing Education

Polypathic conversation with David Holmgren:

Today it is common to hear the suggestion
[cooperative] education and [therapeutic] training
is the [mindful] key to allowing people to contribute
to a more sustainable [ecopolitical] 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 [competitively commodified] 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 [inductive/deductive bilateral] observation
and [bicamerally balancing] experience
[and work/play of 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 [humane-sublime
polypathic
multiculturing
creolic] revolution,
but we need to recognize several fundamental
[Leftbrain dominant enculturation] 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 inter-relational] understanding.

Academic [exegetical LeftBrain dominant] training
that requires every idea and concept be referenced to refereed published [exegetical LeftBrain dominant] sources
is the extremity of this [conserving rather than transitioning] approach
to [reiterative monoculturing memorization
of what once was normatively true
and necessarily so,
yet perhaps not optimally or even sufficiently true
for all times and spaces and complex systems
and so yet hypothetically false,
BothAnd recreatively tensioned with EitherOr.]

Second,
information technology has accelerated the speed of circulation,
retrieval
and reproduction [rights] of [nutritional/toxic] information.
The [commercial] professional packaging
of [LeftBrain reductive] secondary experience
in [massively cooperatively 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, sound, hearing, smell, touch, internal positive/negative feeling nutritional spectrum)
bicamerally polypathic ecosystemic]
thinking.

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

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 [creolizing] cross-fertilization of [regenerative Yang-cause] concepts
and
[Yin-nurturing/caustic BothAnd
bilateral-dialectal
matriarchal implicated affect] ideas
that is now providing the most fruitful results
for dealing with the [Yang/Yin eco]systemic [landscape/climate] problems
of the [regenerative-less/degenerative-more] environmental crisis.

Much of this [positive co-relational co-arising] integrated [comprehension]
is happening outside [formal] educational
[pathology-oriented, continuing competing-issues committed] institutions
[with highly competitive ecopolitical survival issues,
including chronic capital reinvestment].

Ironically,
information and communications technologies
are increasing these [cooperative paid-forward, co-redemptive] possibilities,
although this benefit is over [LeftBrain dominant] content,
and [redundantly tedious] replication over [re]creation;
[degenerative reiterative feedback loops
rather than cooperative self-governing
regenerative double-binding
ego/eco-conscious 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 evolving creolizing] constructs
of separate [and alarmingly unequal] disciplines
and cultures
(such as [Left-Yang, EitherOr] science
and [Right-Yin, BothAnd] art
[nurturing octave flow-fractal regenerative functions,
like 4Base fractal/crystal group/game math,
and 4Season phylogenic reproductive rights and wrong]).

This education lacks wholistic [therapeutic] integration
with [health-wealth ecopolitically oriented] living experience
and its insights and truths often make little [shallow] impression
on the underlying [Right-YinFlow nurturing-absorbing-resonant] structures
of [comprehensive] understanding
and [internally felt committed] belief [as co-empathic trust]
created by [LeftBrain might makes right] family [conservative-supremacist] upbringing,
mass [consuming dominating producer] media
and popular [nationalized ecopolitical WinLose competition] culture.

In many fields
we find the [global glory] solutions
to [ecological within and without] 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 exegetical-monoculturing belief systems]
which people appear to [conserve to defensively] hold
have not been [creolic EitherOr-evolution/BothAnd-revolution] integrated with
and [regeneratively-therapeutically-cooperatively] reinforced
by their [Left-Right bicameral polypathic
ecologically ecopolitical] personal experience
[of regenerative health and competitively degenerative pathologies].

Note: Transliteration 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-Yin as Left-Right creative bilaterally cooperative nondual dipolar appositionality.

Polycultural Education as if multiculturing double-bound Earth lives and deaths WinWin CoOperatively matter for health-wealth optimizing outcomes.

Growing Up Healthiest

Just as a significant line might be drawn
between permaculture design
and agribusiness,
defined as improved seasonal production through better and more expansive chemistry and soil and water and air and light pathology,
we might draw a parallel contrast
between cooperative Earth-nutritional politics
and competitive bottom-line capitalism,
human natural purpose and Earth-nature’s absence of healthy intent

between cooperation as Yin-flow
and competition as Yang oppositionally proficient deductive strengths

between cooperative ecopolitical co-ownership and stewardship
and competitive anti-ecological autonomous supremacy of human nature
and patriarchal-dominant rulership.

From a LeftBrain deductive dominant perspective
this line looks like an Old School opposition,
a mutually-antipathic hostility.
Yet, from a cooperative Left-Right mindbody perspective
this same line
looks and feels like ALSO (bilaterally) a decompositional appositional space
for heuristic co-empathic trust,
for significant deep learning Both-And,
rather than necessarily always and only Either-Or,
dipolar rather than merely bipolar,
ego/ecother zero-sum balancing perspective.

Just as EitherOr follows WinLose suboptimizing Game Theory ecosystemic outcomes,
while BothAnd follows WinWin regenerative-nutritional reiterative outcomes
for EarthGame Day and Night cooperative perpetual continuance.

So, suppose,
just suppose BothAnd,
for the sake of creolizing cooperative simplicity,
Republican Nationalistic Agri-valuing Business
were merely an appositional creative tension
with Democratizing EarthMatriarchal/Patriarchal PermaCulturing Design
and EcoPolitical Planning
for CoOperative Earth Ownership and ReGenerative Optimization Governance,
still including some degenerative-decompositional functions,
yet without deliberately recreating a runaway waste stream
nor a runaway personal, family, community,
or national nutritional, financial, or health-assurance deficit.

That’s what’s been up and down with my bicameral Yang/Yin mind.
What’s been co-evolving of and for and with you and yours?

Neglecting Top and Bottom Lines

I worry we co-invest in big private and public corporate assault
on Earth,
on environmentalism,
on longer-term ecologic.

Really, honey?
That’s too bad.
Why not also see long-term assault
as the unintended outcome of short-term neglect
of cooperative care-giving,
healthy nurturing behavior,
Golden Rule economic and ecological behavior,
like we learned in Sunday School?

Well, yes, I guess I can see that.
And yet, responsibility for neglect
is not the accountability for injustice I seek
for assault on climate health,
landscapes of regenerative, rather than degenerative, potential,
resonant slow-growth multicultural fertility,
organic resilience,
full color octaves of strong-hued eloquence,
resonance for future Earth reweaving regenerators.

I wonder if it helps
to remember that assault derives from learned fear-mongering critical-event behavior,
while neglect speaks to more chronic ecosystems of over-investment
in short-term corporate ego-inflation,
rather than short-thru-long-term ego-eco bicameral economic regenerative balance?

WinWin regenerativity is big corporate’s WinLose assault for survival target.

I think you give them too much evil conspiracy credit
and not enough human neglect of ecological long-term mindfulness credit.
When positive growth trends
are measured only in producing accumulation of wealth
for investors, both taxpayers and shareholders,
without any thought to quantities of resources consumed
in exchange for this investment,
then this further feeds short-term neglect of long-term investment in care-giving and receiving
and cooperative co-arising long-term mindfulness.

You are reminding me
of all the corporations I have ever known
with 4-generation Mission Statements
about their corporate Original Intent,
yet, at best, 4-quarter profit-making projections,
positive outcome budgetary wish lists.

And then, too,
we have the 4-generation campaign promises
derived from public corporation officials’ ReGenerative Constitutional Intent,
yet, at best, a 6-year re-election cycle,
and more likely 4-year,
or even just 2.

Yes, we do seem to have a degenerative tension
between the post-revolutionary Constitution’s Original Intent
to keep this democratizing revolution going,
for cooperating with the healthy wealth of Earth
and our nation-state neighbors,
as diplomatically and economically possible,
and within our own multiculturing liberties and justices,
mercies and re-acclimating
redefinitions of peace as restraining tolerance
for those terrorizing differences we could never nutritionally celebrate,
tearing families from their homes,
children from their terrorizing/terrorized parents,
young adults from their malnourished
self-medicating
Business As Competitively Usual
neighborhood environments.

Democratizing intended Constitutions
speak of co-arising health-wealth,
where one could not become,
much less sustain,
without the other;
where co-investment in politics of democratic growth,
maturation,
mutual acclimation,
creolization of Elite with NonElite enculturation,
are drawn within the loops and pointing dots
of periods and episodic commas
and objectives for Earth’s co-arising health
and fertile wealthy prosperity,
as rich iconic compost
and cooperative economic climates,
regenerate healthy political landscapes
less likely to neglect ecological values
when drawing economic corporate wisdom’s co-operative
co-gravitating original and bottom lines.

Wholesome Revolutionary Acclimations

Internal conversions of consciousness,
like external revolutions in cultural awareness,
emerge from understanding Ego’s embodied death as unmitigated 100% loss
and too often suffering and pain,
toward comprehending mindbody death of Self
as also re-investment opportunity
in timeless co-present Self/Other co-arising regenerative gift.

This potential for gifting each generation of WinWin-cooperative/often-competitive WinLose,
yet overall regenerative creolization forward
across multi-enculturing time,
is difference that makes a cooperatively meaningful difference
between a LeftBrain monopoly of EitherLeft/OrRight ecopolitical ontology
and co-arising Left-Right ecosystemic balancing phylogeny
of WinWin matriarchal-embryonic-nurturing history,
evolutionary democratization
creolizing our co-nurturing empowerment
further toward both internal/external revolutions of ego/eco-conscious regenerative trends,
over degenerative 100% losses and ego-suffering and ecological dissonant pain.

This came to mind
as I have gradually, perhaps too relentlessly, become aware
that most of my family and few remaining friends,
are most likely to sing my songs
and read these thoughts about our ego/eco-conscious creolizing development,
after I die,
perhaps immediately after,
as my ashes are also creolizing,
compost for future healthy soils and plants and people and planet.

 

And, I hope this reading, research, discovery,
is primarily motivated by wanting to learn
why I have been so generous
with regenerative love,
and so abstemiously against degenerative-competitive hates and distrusts,
to win just one more day of breath
regardless of disinvestment costs to be paid by other,
future,
positive over-powering double-binding negative collateral regenerators.

To return to this Earth womb
from which we have so co-operatively
phylo-regenically rememberingly
sprung,
humane root systemic nature nurturers,
deep healthy co-arising nondual
secular/sacred
ego/eco-roots of eternally revolutionary consciousness.

Revolutions within Earth’s Evolution

Here we have a list of antonyms.
I hope terms on the left dipolar co-define
those on the right,
and vice versa.

Form                                   Function

PolyPathic                              Poli-BiNomial Tipping Points
toward health and safety, when conjoined,
toward pathology and risk, when left unwoven.

This bipolarity
rather quickly breaks down, flexes out,
into co-arising nondual dipolarity.
Complexity between matriarchal cooperative WinWin
and patriarchal competitive WinLose
evolves density of co-arising nondualities,
reiterative dialogue between ego-languaged LeftBrain
and ecoconscious aptic WinWin long-term normative,
yet also ego-survivalist synaptic WinLose short-term RightBrain,
feeling ego-discontinuous with the remainder of Earth’s natures.

The goal of ecopolitical evolution, then,
is to grow WinWin, both short- and long-term continuous,
through further extending dialogue
between the larger ego-eco staging cerebral cortex
and the smaller ego-centric brain stem dipolarities
of aptic-empathic co-trust (+,+)
and synaptic (-,-) antipathic feelings of mistrusting flee and fright.

Our BrainStem thrivalist-cooperative WinWin,
yet also competitive-survivalist WinLose,
is universally syntaxed by RNA/DNA affective confluence
OVER dissonance.

The separation of LeftBrain cooperative health and safety outcomes,
from RightBrain domestically matriarchal comparative wealth of sharing opportunities,
by minimizing unnecessary competitive risk-taking,
is our universally multicultural
trigonometric work of integrative holonic thalamus,
our reiterative-dialogueing Holonic Spirit
between creolizing God/Dess of CerebralCortex
and democratizing notice and invitation
of BrainStem’s primordial fractal syntax
favoring aptic-regenerative-cooperative ecopolitics.

As competitive WinLose patriotism is to nationalistic ego-enculturation,
so cooperative WinWin matriotism is to EarthTribal ego-familial enculturation
of cerebral bicameral cortex identities,
as we collectively deep learn and reweave
that Earth is not only our eventual tomb
but also, historically and culturally
and ecopolitically speaking,
Mother Earth is our species’ eco-conscious nurturing womb
of multiculturing-creolizing phylogenic and ontogenic maturation.

Or, as Gregory Bateson would map it,
our sacred ecological re-acclimation revolutions
to and with and for and of Earth’s cooperative WinWin
climate health and safety.

Our expanding Left-Right mutually nurturing cortex hemispheres
grow cerebrally impatient with Old School
nationalistic WinLose compete to invest
and then to disinvest
in and through and past and around each other.
We are too interdependently communicating now
to long tolerate nation-state elitism
over our deep encultured Earth loyalties.

Our pride of place and home and family
rests in full-octave flow abundance
with recycling revolutions of Earth’s synergetic health.

To protect this,
to cooperate with each other species,
WinLose lines on nation-state political maps mean nothing,
while densely overlapping regenerative economic boundaries
for further cooperative evolving WinWin Commons Ownership
and self-other regenerate governance
becomes everything any one healthy EarthTribe cerebral ego
could ever hope to love with.
