Man/Sha Legends

Professor Swan’s EcoTherapeutic Home

Although a post-millennial Taoist, I avoid pretending any authority within cultural, evolutionary, or ecological histories, or most any kind of history, except perhaps my personal story, with which, sadly perhaps, I do so hope this treatise will not overly concern itself. I am other things as well, including a gay white, rather grandfatherly adoptive parent of four African-American teenagers, ranging 13 to 19, and the youngest, my only girl child, Yang, radiant with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) and Oppositional Temporal-Sequential Disorder (OD) when even at a moderate level of anxiety, which was, until the last few weeks, most of the time.

All that said, in my run-on sort of way, I have come back to the work of Laotse, and commentators, with some academic baggage including psychology, communication theory, philosophy, especially epistemology, holistic and panentheistic teleology (faith systems evincing meaning and purpose within the evolution of culture and information), systems theory, and then public administration, community and economic development, and, most recently, certification in Permaculture Design; which, at this point in our evolution might be more aptly re-labeled as Ecological Regenerative Development and Design because, while perhaps something may be permanent, it most certainly would not be culture, by definition a slow mutually-symbiotic radiant absorption of nutrients within an increasingly diastatic system, about to give birth to a transformed generation of reformulated function. Sounds like yeast to me.

My husband, and my second son, in their highly diverse ways, express concern about my memory and imagination juggling complex paradigmatic and temporal analogies, Alice in Wonderland conversations between mind and body, space and time, longing and belonging, physics and metaphysics, night and day, summer and winter, spring and fall, Yang and Yin.

I see Laotse as an Ecological Regenerative Designer-Shaman, writing an ecotherapy mentor manual to his intellectual and chi-optimizing organic progeny. Laotse feels informed by the flow and force functions of Earth’s natural systems, health and wellbeing, nutrition and values within not only moral/ethical frames of reference, but also metric, especially biometrically organized value-group systems and trends, like societies, and sages, and root systems, and rivers.

Pre-millennial astronomers were similarly fascinated by astrological patterns and rhythms. Perhaps my post-millennial perspective on ecological development and design derives from this same Original Natural Systemic Intent of Teleology, an intuitive responsiveness to icons of natural rhythmic change patterns and flow trends, development, and structure, regardless of paradigm, inclusive of psychotherapy, socioeconomic and cultural regenesis, economic and environmental therapy, but mainly about how to develop and maintain a safe and sane home with the capacity to grow organic wellness through incorporating global diversity.

I have been reading across multiple paradigms again. Apparently this is a bad habit that drives my husband nuts, or at least contributes to his dismay about my apparent lack of an appropriately prioritized, not to mention better organized, mind. Reading books about cosmology and psychotherapy and permaculture design, and economic policy simultaneously to see how they may inform each other, and the occasional Yes! or Scientific American magazine simulcasting, it’s hard to say exactly where this research project began. I might trace it back to slurping Mother’s nutrient stream of plasma, but something about reading Laotse, Julian Jaynes, Buckminster Fuller, and David Bohm together has shifted my perspective on my own retirement, and the apparent retirement from rationality of a too white Western wealthy male-dominant culture.

I  recall, about a year ago, discovering Positive Psychology. I first noticed the studies of identical twins, living with each other on a daily basis. They tend to look more alike than twins disassociated at birth, or even after reaching adulthood. More recently I saw pictures of long-time happily married couples, a whole lot of high school sweethearts who stayed sweet on each other for the duration. They tended to resemble each other, even facially sometimes, in ways that are more pronounced as elders than when they were young in their relationships. Not until a year ago did I notice that people who generally have positive, can-do, yet realistic attitudes (so mono-maniacal types are excluded), who tend to feel grateful within their relationships, for whom resentment and envy are anomalous feelings, anticipate their long-term prospects for contentment and success and joy, and continuing gratitude throughout their lifetime(s). These are generally happy, loving, kind people, often swimming in some nurturing form of learning/reflective culture, especially as they move into middle-age and beyond. These are the people with whom everybody wants to live. Or at least I do.

Perhaps significant, though, I find no evidence of white Western wealthier male dominance here. Although there are many with these Positive traits, these are far more deviantly shared with people who have had a more challenging time.

So, why do Positive people meeting this description, sidestepping viral irony, tend to live longer and healthier lives than the rest of us comparatively manic depressive and cynical “realists”? I read Norman Vincent Peale’s The Power of Positive Thinking when I was about ten, but I don’t remember anything that would predict why my tall handsome African-American husband would start looking and sounding more and more like me, and I, a not-so-tall and not so handsome white guy, would start looking and sounding more and more like him, and liking it less and less. This was not our plan twenty three years ago. We actually prefer our differences more than our similarities, I think. Or at least I do, or did, and I thought that was an illustration of my somewhat positive psychological health—attraction toward diversity.

Evolutionary psychologists explain why positive psychology is so positive, why happiness is healthier than ambivalence, at least in more chronic forms. They say positive is positive because we have better outcomes so this develops positive feedback loops that lead to more and better sex and progeny over more average years.

OK, so maybe I’m not as positive as I had positively hoped.

While this evolutionary ethology sounds right to me, it also feels like this alone would predict a run-away positive feedback loop. So happy kids would almost inevitably grow up to be successful, happy, contented, and grateful adults, and old people, and they would, by now, be in complete global control of our situation, and I could take a nap, without worrying about my grandkids’ future prospects. Maybe we have some systemic constraints on the density of positiveness that any one community or ecosystem, or white straight financially-comfortable Western male can realistically contain at this time. This evolutionary frame may predict survival benefits more humbly than actual flourishing outcomes.

Doesn’t Positive Psychology also at least imply that human nature is ecologically evolutionary, that underlying our individual ego-self identities lies our mutually subsidiary network of synergetic (0) sum eco-soul chi? Mutual confluence and gratitude resonates; while mutual immunity, tension, stress, dissonance creates considerable noise, decay, destitution, death. Is a positively balanced ego-consciousness a still-emergent formation foreshadowing our understory, an eco-network of well-rooted, positive/negative balanced, thermodynamically harmonious gravity flow and synergy? Are we body-ego-identified individuals exploring our positively intended evolution as mind-eco-cellular individuating (0)-sum chi soulfood for each Other, within our own bodies and merging minds, and environments, relationships, communities, language development, nutrient economies, our own homes and families? This sounds Positive, but also Permacultured, to me.

I suspect there may be some implicit Negative Psychology mixed in with our explicated Positive Psychology; a recognition of the therapeutic value of grief, of care-giving and care-receiving, of nurturance and heartbreak as a response to pain and loss, and extinguishment, or purgation, in some contexts, as a response to dissonance and turbulence; like when my teenage sons pop their ear buds back in and turn their backs—Cognitive Dissonance Theory at work.

If only the positive, happy, more enlightening, emotions and affect could lead to improved, more abundant happiness, then I would presume that those of us who tend to sometimes be at least a tad more dull, and blind to our own gratitude for belonging with each Other, would have long ago died out, probably before dinosaurs..Glee, success, happiness, brilliance, beauty, goodness do not fully explain personal and social and economic evolution, or we would all be a whole lot more positive by now.

A response may emerge by looking at why Positive Psychology bears the name “Positive” rather than other possibilities like “Therapeutic” or “Good” or even “Correct” or “True.” Or “Perfect,” why not Perfection Psychology or even Paradise Psychology?

According to Wikipedia.com, our mutual textbook in the clouds, “Positive Psychology…uses scientific understanding and effective intervention to aid in the advancement of a satisfactory life, rather than merely treating mental illness.” What distinguishes between an unsatisfactory life and mental illness? Why wouldn’t treating an unsatisfactory life also treat mental illness? Positive Psychology implicitly, or liminally, somehow, seems to respond to Negative Psychology, our cultural fascination with pathology as unsatisfactory.

The Positive branch complements, with no intention to replace or ignore, the traditional pathological foci of psychology. Those other, Negative psychologists, with remedial intentions, have their place inside our somewhat shared asylum. Those ready for, and actively seeking, the good life will learn about “using your signature strengths everyday to produce authentic happiness and abundant gratification.” (Martin Seligman, 2002). Presumably, if you want to learn to use your signature weaknesses everyday to produce authentic happiness and abundant gratification, then you need to move over to that other Negative branch, which, unfortunately, is so embedded in its pathological silo that the two branches are too often not even on speaking terms within the hearts and minds of psychologists.

Kirk Schneider points “to a body of research showing high positivity correlates with positive illusion, which effectively distorts reality.” High positivity, or “flourishing,” can generate a positive feedback loop rendering some self-delighted sap “incapable of psychological growth, unable to self-reflect, and tend to hold racial biases. By contrast, negativity, sometimes evidenced in mild to moderate depression, is correlated with less distortion of reality.” (wikipedia.com, Positive Psychology, Schneider, 2011, Toward a Humanistic Positive Psychology). This reminds me of how psychoanalyst mentor Harold F. Searles responded to Edward Podvoll when he was unclear about what more he could learn, ”Your problem is that you’re not paranoid enough.”

Depression, to take a sometimes personal example, may be a correcting, or TrimTab, tipping point away from run-away positively manic delusion, just as flourishing affect and feelings associated with ego-identity and relationships can be therapeutic for all that sad poetry I write during the winter that no one wants to read, including myself, when I’m feeling Positive, “flourishing.”

TrimTabs, from B. Fuller, are small deviant adjustment dynamics that reiterate positive and negative feedback functions between Positive Psychology and Negative Therapy, showing up in the amazing outcomes of the Positive Deviance Initiative (www.positivedeviance.org).

Positive Deviance is based on the observation that in every community there are certain individuals or groups whose uncommon behaviors and strategies enable them to find better solutions to problems than their peers, while having access to the same resources and facing similar or worse challenges.

The Positive Deviance approach is an asset-based, problem-solving, and community-driven approach that enables the community to discover these successful behaviors and strategies and develop a plan of action to promote their adoption by all concerned.

This is strategized and planned positive evolution, with regenerative neighborhood and community-level effects. It is, in Podvoll’s language, finding islands of relative sanity. For example, a few parents figure out how to grow well-fed kids without any more money than anyone else in a neighborhood of largely malnourished kids.  The Positive Deviance researchers interview those families as the first step in spreading their outcomes more broadly among the population. I presume the reverse-deviant behavior or affect or feeling, or all the above, truly is positive, and not involving flourishing kids in assaulting other kids for their school lunches. Maybe these kids are flourishing because they have better choices for breakfast and carry nutritious lunches from home instead of what everybody else at school is eating.

This idea of not only Positive Deviance but also, by implication at least, Negative Deviance spreading to optimize a mutually-valued level of long-term sustainability comes to mind as I look for Ecological Mentoring Communities and Homes. Like the Findhorn EcoVillage, for example. Where are our best therapeutic cooperative models for sustained intentional positive communal life? How would one go about replicating these cultural development models within a more diverse and inclusive culture?

Apparently not with Positive Psychology alone, but some TrimTab balance between the Yangish excesses of positively functional outcomes and the Yin negative-reflective mutuality of interdependent nourishment, economic subsidiarity. Loss, pain, dissonance, wilting flowers and thriving weeds, climatic distempers, violent and fear-filled communications acutely erupt into our lives, and sometimes chronically emerge into our relationships, our communally accepted norms, our willingness to compromise on our definition of “home” and “paradise,” and perhaps even “sanity,” due to realities of the moment.

I am looking for models to form and maintain and self-propel positively deviant residential communities. Three psychologists stand out for me. The first is Julian Jaynes. I may get back to him a bit later. The other two are psychoanalysts, Edward Podvoll (Recovering Sanity, 2003) with a Compassionate therapeutic model, developed through the Windhorse Project, and Laura S. Brown’s Feminist Therapy (Subversive Dialogues, 1994).

Brown is passionately eloquent about the dis-positive ego-softening state of listening and speaking awareness essential to empathetically resonant, resilient, sustained therapeutic relationship. “A feminist therapy ethics takes the stance that practitioner and client are allies in the process of transforming…” (p. 207). This idea of therapist and ally, as empathic mutual mentors listening for dynamic functionality within their cognitive and communication dysfunction goes by the name of Basic Attendance in Podvoll’s psychoanalytic model.

Basic Attendance may be to non-violent communication what compassionate mindfulness is to actively engaged discursive synergy. Perhaps Basic Attendance has more of a peace intention, while compassionate mindfulness carries a more Western linguistic preference for active love. All of these are born of the same synergetic fabric found ubiquitously in religious and scientific paradigms as mutually gravitational attracting energy, motion, time frequencies, integrative function and force.

Uncovering the existence of spontaneous, innate flashes of sanity can become the building blocks of recovery…. Learning the necessary skills of this approach, especially the methods of basic attendance, allows human intimacy to become the catalyst for recovery. (Podvoll, p. 318)

Human natural intimacy is basic attendance, which might also be defined as the implicated root, or enthymematic to, compassionate mindfulness, love, or even synergy—according to Buckminster Fuller’s original coinage of this term for negative entropy—the opposite of an established relationship is something different, and more “advent”ish, more actively hopeful, than the entropic absence of relationship.

Basic Attendance includes both an intention and a practice. Intention precedes practice, “In this sense, environmental [ecological?] awareness is not only the tool to create sanity in the household, it is also the fundamental healing discipline that the patient needs.” Basic Practice of Attendance evolves out of Compassionate Therapy as a “fundamental healing discipline” ordained, perhaps quite literally, by ecological multisystemic awareness, or perhaps even a more active prehension of “Other-ness” within. “The secret of such intimacy can be learned and practiced; it is called the discipline of ‘exchange’.” (Podvoll, p.. 318) This seems to more-or-less bring us back to Brown’s feminist and holistically integral empathy.

Stretching to include human nature’s full living and often quite deviant diversity, I suppose ecological natural system awareness disciplines would include intentional breathing together, and noticing the pace of our heart rhythms, perhaps movement, exercise, artistic expression, poetry and story-telling, but also the mundanely unmystical habit of listening in full left- and right-hemispheric balanced stereo, and perceiving and feeling and absorbing and generating full sensory nutrient positive potential in full left-right hemispheric balanced stereo.

Julian Jaynes’ evolutionary theory of left-brained emergent linguistic dominance might suggest a cranial understory of reiterative, double-boundaried, Eco-Connected-SelfOtherPrimeRelationship-Mind-Right and Ego-Self-Identified-Body-Left-Languaged accessibility to and from older-brain encoded information. R.D. Laing, Gregory Bateson, Buckminster Fuller, and Robert Norton all look at diverse paradigmatic relationships between double-bind prime identification duality, emergence of binomial—analogic and digital, bipolar, and dual-nature polarities, autistic dissonant communication silos, and the ethological emergence of ego-body-self-identity awareness seminally accessible with the evolution of double stimulation capacity. (See Robert Norton’s Communication & Consequences: Laws of Interaction, p. 101) Self and Other are mutually individuated by knowing not only that when Other touches my arm I can feel this on my arm, but also when Self pinches my arm I can feel this on my arm and on my hand. Self is both subject progenitive, predicative, and object, response, outcome, in some (0)-sum balanced ego-core identity; or Not-Self-Otherness.

Non-violent communication analyzes the distinctly pathological problems that emerge from listening only with one ear and seeing only with one ego-centric eye. Feminist therapy reminds us that optimizing therapists choose to give fully balanced weight and credence to any functional intention of Other’s voice and movement, through empathic listening and responding with a voice or movement, music, rhythm, pace, flow, frequency, force this particular Other, in this particular moment might be able to recognize as confluently responsive.

When my non-verbal son, Yin, screeches and shouts and pops his lips with a sequence of rhythms and pitches, creating a repeatable sequence, he listens more attentively when I repeat these sounds back to him, more or less the way they sounded to me. For my reward, he shows the dimple on the right side of his mouth. Because I frequently get to see this dimple, I recognize myself as a well-trained Ecotherapy student; but Yin is, so far, the only effective verbal-pattern linguistic teacher in our mutually-therapeutic relationship.

When my probably insane daughter throws her food, jumps up from the table and runs away, I have learned to stretch further to see and hear through her functional neural system. It looked rather like one of her internal voices sounded an alarm, “Oops, alien incoming! Run away!!!

The most positive response in my arsenal was to see this as time to clear up her mess and go read a good book. But, when she was ready to come back to the crime scene, she wanted to eat the food off our floor (not something for the faint-hearted to even consider) rather than clear it up with a broom and mop.

When I responded with a cease and desist!, her response ranged from angry panic, incessant wailing despair, to loud protestations to the effect, “I’m hungry! Not just hungry; but hungry for this food on this wall and floor!”

With time, and more reflection on what response might Basic Attendance invite to my daughter’s dysfunctional alarm, it came to me that the alarm itself is not dysfunctional; it is my interpretation of her alarm’s meaning that was too myopic. My challenge was to regain positive and active faith in her functional intent to take care of herself. Soon after I remembered that Yang will take care of herself before she will do anything else, because she is profoundly ego-identified, it occurred to me that maybe I should jump up and run with her to her bedroom sit down on the floor with her, hold her if she will let me, and ask her what happened and why were we running away from the mashed potatoes, with gravy, and butter.

While initially all I got was silence, this was already better than all that wailing and terror. Eventually we got to I don’t know. Shortly after that, to Who threw my dinner? I’m hungry! That was when I began to have restored faith that there was a positive, yet alarming, method in her madness. She began to teach me about oppositional temporal disorder, reversed memory of cause and effect when under moderate to high stress conditions, and confusion between agent and victim, Self and Other-ness.

Yang’s reverse-synaptic affective response to her environment as a negative and toxic place for living cells probably started with her first baptism in alcohol. As she has matured and found her moments of sane nurturing relationships breaking through the insanity of her neural-hostage environment, her anxiety level has dissipated. Yang continues to mature, helped along by some music and dance and game therapy, playing with cause, effect, and reciprocal, reiterative, and appositional-oppositional temporal sequencing. Reverse role playing, story-telling with peaceful and harmonious words but saying them mean and ugly, and vice versa, ritualistic absurd name calling all have become idiosyncratic to our mutually trusting, playful, often humorous, positively expressive relationship.

Ecological awareness is feeling and hearing and seeing Self and Other with both eyes, as interdependent holons within Earth’s positive evolutionary, explicating, incarnating order. Karmic purpose unfolds as grace’s meaning, as karma’s practice enfolds grace’s intent. Borrowing from Basic Attendance but also Permaculture Design, we can choose to optimize polycultural nutrient absorption by minimizing ego-dominating distractions, predators, and dissonant assumptions of malignant intent. Bicameral basic attendance learns that well-balanced egos prehend indigenously within self-perpetuating, self-defining eco-centric EarthTribe design and development natural flow trends, functions, information. We each evolve part of Earth’s way, truth, and life; each of these three words is used to define Tao and, by Jesus of Nazareth, to define Messiah, as a new millennial manna.

Buckminster Fuller might recognize mutually symbiotic Attendance within our multi-systemic environment as a metaphysically real true way, or Universal Intelligence.[1] Fuller presciently committed intelligent permacultured design to the core TrimTab balancing principle of Greatest Effect with Least Waste, or loss of value, or least retention of dissonant values and frequencies and functions. His TrimTab mechanism later was labeled as the “tipping point” within a dynamic system in process of reversing one or more energy or information flow trends. A Trimtab’s (0) Core Vector is a “digital” view of optimized confluent analogical frequency trends, and minimized dissonant frequencies; optimized energy and information. TrimTabbing predicates consciousness value-balancing within any dynamic relationship trending toward prime, primal, or seminal; a significantly harmonious threshold toward emergently confluent ways, or Tao. Tipping points are emergently diastolic balanced flow, with reduced dissonant turbulence, moving toward some new/old diastatic, mutually enculturing stage of systemic relationship, synergetically merging two interdependent but complexly diffused, and sometimes confused, entities into one organically evolving form of stasis.

TrimTabs are tipping points in cultural self-designing moments and eras, increasing our collective prime comprehension, conceivability, compassionate mindfulness. They are balancing trend changes of function and form and frequency generating new moments of mutual sanity, or at least reiteratively building exchanges of values, words, thoughts, conceptual forms and structures that appear to have harmonious resonance between communicating minds and bodies wanting to head in the same balanced direction.

Prime mindfulness emerges from a formative infolding/outflowing intuition: just as Self identity grows through successfully individuating Not Eco-Other, so Not Eco-Other reveals our universal prime replicating teleological and ecological fractal relationship, with 50% Yang Self-Body ego-identity boundary covering [positive correlates with geometrically convex, when you learn to speak Fullerian, or Buckminstermess] our 50% interior eco-Yin chi-soul embryonic mind [negative correlates with concave], together self-perpetuating interdependent individuation, lived in balance on the cusp of each interdependently eco-self-consciously eternal temporal moment, our  mutually symbiotic event of shared consciousness.

We need not deeply comprehend primal layers of Basic Attendance to understand  Fuller’s prime relationship of 4-based geometric dynamic physics, and the process of in-formating, and 6-based metaphysical prime stage-flow functions, like color and sound round octaves shaped by Pythagorean iconic codes of value, or 2-based prime temporal-ergetic polarity, +radiant Eulerian primal horizontal cross fractal-functional perspective OVER (-)ergetically gathering, synergizing, concaved frequency temporal trend, the dark bottom view of a tornado spinning away from you, temporal spin assumption of clockwise [temporal natural flow patterns “from below” would be the dark understory view of a tornado spinning a spiraling temporal-flow string of memory back in time traveling away from you] = Right hemisphere toward Left hemisphere across elliptical space, Left toward Right across polar-linear time sequence and appositional staging seasons.

Somehow it all feels like it is soaking into our global analogically saturating culture right now, this companionship between physics and math and teleology and evolution and ecopsychology and new economics and cooperative gaming theory, and then back to Bayesian trend analysis of QBits, or Qits, or whatever quixotic quarky name we have for implicately analyzed big data-set trend strings of confluent prime spacetime relationships within overall regenerative  Hilbert-space strategic development trend-normative story lines. This generates a permacultured nutrient rich and sustained well-being frequency, full-octave, with a sometimes alarmingly, and often surprising, bipolar temporal intent, and autonomic intuition of frequency polarities.

Temporally emergent functions and stage-frequencies follow an ecological rhythm and pattern like RNA, or the four annual seasons, or the light and dark sections of a day. In Dharma and Development, Dr. Joanna Macy discusses a development fractal following this same pattern:

  1. NOTICE: metta–loving kindness
  2. HOPE: karam—compassion and/or grief [I would translate as confluence and/or dissonance, within information and communication theory]
  3. FAITH: mudita—joy in the joy of others; confluence/sorrow in the confluence/sorrow of others; trust in the trust of others; informating through informating with others; incarnating through incarnating as Integral Eco-Other Positive mythos/logos, eisegetical/exegetical string species
  4. LOVE/ACTIVE PEACE WITH JUSTICE: uppekkha—equanimity/integrity optimized value balance; a great, and deep, peace Tao of balanced equity.

So, in Bloom’s Taxonomy of deep learning, we start with

  1. an enthymematically emergent noticing of potential information,
  2. through hope of confluence researched,
  3. through faith therein reported, and finally
  4. comparatively analyzed and synthesized for analogous ecologies and economies with prior regenerative memory cycles and metric systems and language paradigms;

Basic Attendance metta is to hope, as faith is to love;

as LINE is to COSINE is to LTR is to Fuller’s (0) Core Vector fractal prime relationship;

as winter’s advent is to springing hope,

as summer’s faith fulfills in abundant Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) Permaculture Design and Development optimized prime cooperative information and functional-synergetic value harvests;

as Uracil is to Cytosine,

so is Adanine to Guanine;

as + is to (-),

This EcoTherapy is symbiotically and binomially born of  digital binary information ecosystemic theory and from a deeply inclusive permacultured Golden Rule, expressing each person’s positive cognitive intent through Basic Attendance  described as our mutually enculturing, empathic, and intuitively enthymematic practice of reflecting each other’s sanity by discovering analogies within our own experience and imagination, our extant range of frequency and functional and formative awareness of natural/organic/holonic potential (e.g. role play, music, gaming exercises, movement, meditation, stress reduction and artistic expressive therapies). Basic Attendance is to actively peaceful, “safe” and harmonious expression what non-violent communication is to dissonant- and risk-avoidant information patterns, like the stuff of Cognitive Dissonance Research. Cognitive Dissonance is the opposite of Basic Attendance, which grows nutrient positive roots for growing more sustainable Positive Deviance trends, especially within currently abused and neglected populations, species, neighborhoods and bioregions.

Anyway, getting back to my crazy oppositionally afflicted reverse-temporal synaptic daughter, she and I were both able to laugh at our dysfunctional fears when I was able to share with her that she threw that vegeburger and ran away so fast, I was sure it had teeth and had bitten her on the nose. She found that image amusing, and perhaps humoring this pathology helped her loosen her fearful grasp a bit, to hang on to our shared intentionally co-passionate and mindful moment of positive integral ecotherapy. It helped each of us to hear the other, and ourselves, laughing about that fearsome vegeburger. Laughter, perhaps literally, absorbs dissonant information, it is medicinal, as is joy, and all those attributes associated with Positive Psychology.

Perhaps what is still missing for me in Positive and (negative) remedially-oriented  ecopsychology theory is something that might help explain why an old widow and her not quite so old boxer look like cousins sometimes. Can we predict the evolution of body and mind confluence by optimizing multisystemic information and energy confluence in each of our relationships, each moment, each choice of word and song and dance and value? Is this not what we mean by Basic Attendance, and/or compassionate mindfulness?

How might we spread this rich compost of Basic Polycultural Attendance throughout our most cooperative and permacultured enterprises? Throughout the places in time and moments in space where those who are not wealthy straight Western adult males, 40-70, will have one of Laura Brown’s Subversive Dialogues about ecotherapeutic cooperative care for homes and families, businesses and vocations, learning and designing and developing regenerative systems and relationships. How will you invest our wealth for yourself, your children, and our future generations of all EarthTribe?

Dr. Beaver’s Win-Win EcoTherapy Game

So, this year our Permaculture Communications Class project will hope to design a cooperative, yet fun, EcoTherapy Game. We will do this together, but let me give you some ideas that came to me in the middle of last night’s full moon cycle. So you know this is going to be good, right?

OK, what if we cast Information issues within a hierarchy of discernment authority to defer to nutritious health and economic prosperity values. So options available are restricted by giving preference to those that are at least positive/negative value balanced in both ecological and economic categories. This should have the effect of minimizing loss, pain, suffering, and dissonance, using normative Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) binary system standards, for positive value optimization, using Bayesian trend analysis.

Now, this is a Win-Win gaming frame, so we prioritize positive information value power and authority by using a principle of mutual lowest subsidiarity default. So, if a Win-Lose value issue dispute arises at the individual level, then the resolution frame goes to the population of the individual’s family, if the family presents the issue to their community, then the resolution frame incorporates that family’s community, if the community cannot resolve the issue to the satisfaction of both the family and the community representatives, then the frame goes out to representatives of the State, or Province, or Bioregion, then to national representatives, and globally only in the event of a national failure to find a mutually acceptable win-win indigenous strategy, which seems likely with regard to climate change concerns, for example, but probably not quite so much about your grandmother’s unfortunate habit of carrying an unsheathed paring knife concealed in the back pocket of her dungarees. But, please notice, this game design intends to be family-based, or rooted–not exclusively marketed to those desperate 16 year olds hiding down in your basements waiting for the satellites to fall, playing their Win-Lose cosmological disaster games.

Let’s take a familiar and long-standing ethical dilemma between the individual and society: If we had a citizen who refused to pay that portion of federal taxes currently allocated toward the production of death and the destruction of property, these would probably show up in our positive ecology value column as ecologically dysfunctional, and therefore negative values; that is, death, decay, dissonance, and destruction are each an indicator of harm, disvalue, dissonant Information string-trend frequencies. These are each and all ecologically negative trend projections. So, a State regulation that appeared to the individual to be dissonant with his or her biosystem’s positive productive outcomes might also contribute to the demise of everyone’s biosystemic health and welfare. I think this might be at least a reasonably moderate level of global human collapse, probably bringing along several other vulnerable species.

Our EcoTherapy Game might involve a national resolution platform to reconsider options like permitting conscientious objectors to not pay their war tax portion so long as that same amount of currency is transparently invested for positive socioeconomic outcomes, such as cooperatives and locally controlled ecological and economic network development.

On the other hand, a socioecological pathologist, and perhaps to some extent we each participate in socioecological pathology, but some more frequently and dysfunctionally than others, brought to the justice system for violating a law, such as evading paying people in a corporation’s own community a living wage by moving production, packaging, and customer service operations to another biosystem, thereby increasing carbon footprint for transportation, and where cost of living in U.S. dollar equivalencies is much lower, thereby further eroding the value of indigenous currency, and further destabilizing the economic and ecological systems in another place. This begins to smell like taking a shit in somebody else’s water, most anybody else’s water, the further away from where I sleep the better, and would be an illegitimate Lose-Lose strategy with disvalues dominating values in both our ecological and economic categories of available options. I strongly recommend that we take off our Ecological Win-Win gaming table, any of these sociocultural and economic Lose-Lose strategies. But, carefully, therapeutically.

So, OK, where was I?  Oh yes, these ecodislogical corporate heads meet with community or state representatives for dispute resolution using a Basic Attendance positive, non-violent, dynamically reiterative, issue resolution framework. Compassionately mindful eco-therapists, both humanist and feminist, using their most inclusively empathetic positive communication and regenerative information skills, talk about, perhaps even role play, perhaps even playing the EcoTherapy Game together, demonstrate the positives and negatives economically and ecologically that they see in the corporate heads’ investment strategy, mindfully, and therefore gratefully, mentoring a hope and faith in mutually subsidiary positive dialogue and discernment. “We’re all in this mess together and we’ll all figure it out together, in a way that works for everyone. No one is allowed to walk away from this table feeling like they just lost something they really need.”

The EcoTherapist’s primary discernment function is to understand why these corporate heads behave as they do, what are the positive economic and  ecological outcomes, short-term and long-term, extending out over the next 7 generations? The negatives are self-evident and not useful to the initial stages of dialogue. Can the EcoTherapist find similar functions and dynamics within her/his own relationships to self, others, natural systems, Earth? In this light, the EcoTherapist can best mentor appropriate behavior, something they have actually done under similar ethical circumstances, that avoids violating the Golden Rule and most any other natural and evolutionary and ecological law that I can imagine, within a

Polynomial +1-Yang QBit trend analysis

magnetically balanced-as-equal to

-(Not-Polynomial) time and space information -(0)-Yin QBit 4-Based binary information processing system, CQI design standard [perhaps a bicameral cytosine processor network].

Our bicameral information analysis network will follow reverse temporal trends to optimize Win-Win scenarios and proposals, so a Global Win-Win hierarchical outcome stage of balanced +/- (0)-Core Vector cannot be achieved until every nation achieves +/- (0) value balance in both economic and ecological categories, and no nation can achieve 0-sum balance until every bioregion or state or province within that nation achieves 0-sum balance, and so on down through the community in mutual subsidiary relationship with families, and families with individuals within their families, so this Win-Win reverse-hierarchical default invests everyone in everyone else’s messes, leaving no one behind, feeling like they do not belong to what we are working on together within this EcoTherapy Game. Remember we can’t crowdsource a Win-Win Game and declare it won if even one of the players reports a deficit–a default (+/- 0) outcome for any player is no more than, or less than, what the player entered the game with. That’s more of a Draw-Draw Game. So, I don’t know, maybe our EcoTherapy Game hopes to be Win-Win at the global level, with every entity having a positive balance at the end, but perhaps a Win-Or-Draw-0-balanced Consequences is a more realistic thought, something just this side of paradise.

And, individuals could play this game in each moment of their thoughts and words and actions and absorption of nutrient choices, until they are able to strategize an eco-soul (0)-sum universe with +/- binary balance, using the Prime TrimTab Permaculture Design Optimization Standard of Greatest Abundance/Least Dissonant Loss of information and function, and frequency, and dynamic force, and gravitational flow synergy, which I think might equal positive ecological evolution in this hierarchically revolving Regenesis Theory.

Now, those of you who are taking careful notes may have noticed that reference to QBits, meaning Information Bits within a binary digital information processing system, or maybe not just that. You may also be aware that we have a lot of confusion right now about this QBit quantification of Information flow business, not to mention that whole thing about whether we have sufficiently proven that Polynomial Explicately Ordered Information is reverse-equivalent, formally, nomially, ecologically, metrically, energetically, culturally, and linguistically with NonPolynomial time and space. Some Information Development Theorists claim QBits are what is not real energy or information; others think of them more as heuristic vacuums of information at the proximate end of energy-frequency strings; absent, static, entropic, vacuous pockets within the functional dimensional perspective of observation at any one vector in spacetime. But, I think Buckminster Fuller may have also seen these positive information QBit vacuums as negative binomial knots of bi-functional frequency trend unraveling, rather like David Bohm’s ink drops, unraveling as positive spacetime information but potentially reweaving, under controlled reverse-temporal re-formative “information-memory” value assumptions.

In positive trending polynomial spacetime, these QBit knots of negentropy remain -(-P) [for Polynomial and for Positive Bayesian analytic appositional correlated dis-information] decaying information, perhaps coded reverse temporally as concave-aptic-interior by ‘within’ confluent nuclear mutual-immune-“without dissonance” structural default space-gaps. In normative RNA code development, QBit non-polynomial folds, also binomial gap-ends of vibrant-frequency information-strings, temporally infolds “closer-later-lower” OVER more “distant-earlier-higher” [probably inclusive of magnetic North as +]. Cytosine (C) functions in this prime-information codex system as appositional temporal reversal “constant not-immune” = appositively reflective of Uracil. C functions as a constant -(-)P dysfunction negative non-correlative reverse Bayesian temporal polarity within a balanced P OVER NP binomial metric assumption, rather typical of binary digital information processing systems dependent on +/- electromagnetic balanced energy frequency assumptions. If there isn’t an implied 0 for every explicate 1, then our information system itself is out of balance. This -(-) = + Information Polynomial is analogous to the dynamics of (-)Yin = (+)Yang, just as (+)Yin = (-)Yang form, function, frequency, flow, and force/power in Taoism, maybe.

So, there are +Yang QBits and -Yin QBits with temporal relative constant equivalencies within natural ecological, physical systems, like human bodies, each with its own chi-soul polarity, right through the spine and between the right and left lobes. Now, human minds try to keep all this stuff in balance, which is, according to Julian Jaynes, perhaps why our mammalian brain has pushed out some bicameral information processors, although I think our human natural version went from older Right-brain dominance to now a bit too much Left-deductive, reiterative, ego-more-than-eco-speciated-centric, languaged Western and Northern hemisphere, and male-dominant cultures, all giving historical evidence that Yang Culture and Yin Culture are still issuing exclamations about ecological wisdom v. economic serenity. Which, I think, brings us back to the ecological purpose of this EcoTherapy Win-Win Game design project.

So, what questions and concerns and resonance does all this evoke for you?

Green Sanctuary

Dear Green Sanctuary 2014,

 

Please excuse two messages intruding from the year 2214, from our Green Sanctuary progeny, but I wanted to share these messages based on research from the Tellus Institute (www.tellus.org).  Since the 1970s, Tellus has been contrasting the pictures we can project on our progeny if we follow Business As Usual, contrasted with a still possible future should we implement pervasive systemic changes, that I argue follow Permaculture Design standards, principles, and ethical norms, including (0) carbon footprint. Forty years, and one millennium, later does not seem too soon to incorporate this information into economic and ecological policy and procedure for community development and investment.

 

U.S. history unfolds replete with precedent for the religious sector taking an early lead on freedom and justice issues. This began with the primary motivation for many early European immigrants, looking for religious freedom and self-governance, to abolition of slavery, equal rights for women, through civil rights, more inclusively conceived. Now we come to the ecological, economic, and perhaps even the evolutionary rights of Earth.

 

Business As Usual, 2214

 

From your perspective, back in the day, I would probably be labeled as an autistic gamer, more comfortable below ground. Living in basements has become normative for their comparative effectiveness as contamination-resistant silos. Most of us are hiding from each other. Your corporate elite “won,” from a really sick way of understanding nihilism as success. They got the world they wanted, what’s left of it, and the rest of us mainly don’t think too much about how things might have been different.

 

I do wonder sometimes, though, if you had looked my direction with better foresight, maybe you would have seen how worthy of cultural ridicule those enormous wealth and power deposits were in your own time. Laughing at your Emperors With No Rationality, rather than voting them into office, and allowing them to control information and influence networks, to defend their own hopelessly ridiculous sense of values, may have been a more effective political weapon than all that anger and angst, and wringing of hands.

 

Anyway, my Business As Usual days do not include going outside unprotected. Most of the mammals and birds have died. Water is rationed, but there is lots of piracy. Even so, we would never use it for waste disposal.

 

What were you thinking, really? You starved our soil for compost while you took a shit in our water? It defies my increasingly autistic imagination and memory communication capacity to imagine a species that was so utterly benighted. Although the solar and wind powered energy caught on, as did fake commodified nutrition. Most of us use recycled bicycles to get around, when we have to forage.

 

Connecticut, and all land masses, is smaller now that coastal waters cover most of the towns and other habitats. Even so, we continue losing people faster than dry acreage.

 

They say that you used to experiment with rats, leaving them free of constraints to overpopulate, which they did. Along the way they developed their FatRats, with too much rabidity, chomping down on their smaller, weaker neighbors. All the rats stopped breeding, eventually, became sick, died off, some from vicious attacks without apparent cause or meaning.

 

So why couldn’t you see that you were acting the same way, with the same results predicted for my generation? Few of us left, and even fewer who have any hope, faith, or even basic desire for breeding.

 

I usually play on-line games in my underground silo, in he dark, waiting for the last satellites to fall, leaving me in a dark solitary confinement. That is when I plan to finish this death, already too long in process.

 

Truth, you were looking for Truth? If your Truth left you free for Business As Usual, I am barely here to tell you that yours is a Truth that cannot and will not sustain. Your intentions are good, but your precariously empty, pseudo-independent egos, homes, vocations, travel plans, food production practices are far from eco-logical. Replacing synergetic, loving ecological meaning and purpose with competitive economic rights of ego-self investment and extractive market developments was at least short-sighted, if not criminally sociopathic toward other species and your own future as a humane species.

 

Eco-dislogic dissonance degenerated into a competitive culture of increasingly autistic dismay. But, then, I’m just an Occupier Kid living in the basement of the old Unitarian Society of Hartford, all that’s left after the big 2213 hurricane that took the roof and most all the trees.

 

Anyway, I saw this message in your Green Sanctuary 2014 file that you wanted to hear from your future generations about what we think of your work to divest from the fossil-fuel business. Well, duh, good job on stating the embarrassingly obvious. But, would it have killed you to spend at least as much time on an ecological investment policy and procedure?

 

Back in your day, investing your lives, vocations, days, words, property, wealth in learning to live more cooperatively with nature, using natural, regeneratively balanced, system development skills and technology for creative design and learning and economic planning…. Well, hindsight is always 20-20.

 

Thanks for giving it your best shot. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, I’ve been busy catching cockroaches for…, well, never mind. It’s probably kinder not to say.

 

 

Great Transition Message, 2214

 

OK, so I had this dream last night that back in 2014 our Green Sanctuary Elders specifically wondered aloud what Green Sanctuary would look like in 2214 and how their work on divestment would play out for the long-term.

 

So, yes, thank you for turning our investment strategy around from all that angry angst about losing fuel toward all that happy grace about gaining cooperative investments in your own future energy for our planet and our species.

 

Sync-ing pre-millennial Information Systems Theory with Deep Ecology and post-millennial Evolutionary Economics was so UU of you!

 

Today, Green Sanctuary continues growing your ReGenesis Project, for Reconnecting People, Place, and Planet. Intentional Communities (we stopped calling intentional communities “faith communities” when we realized that there is no such thing as a faithless community—an oxymoron if there ever was one) cooperatively invest in worker, resident, and consumer-owned services, products, enterprises, and natural construction habitats with organic food production capacity on site, all meeting (0) carbon foot print and (0)-sum economic transaction network Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) standards of Permaculture Design, which I think was still not quite evolved completely back in 2014.

 

At this point all food products are repurposed, with curbside pick-up and delivery through the ReGenesis Project’s communication and transport network of Transitio Teams. So is everything else recycled and repurposed, although we sometimes use specialized Transition Teams for non-food items like, you know, pianos, and wire, and all that plastic your generation could just not stop finding new reasons to produce.

 

We also have cooperative natural construction teams; organic farms, gardens, and nurseries; recycling/repurposing guilds, cooperative child and elder care; schools; bioregional credit unions; cooperative health care, including mental health care; energy and biofuel coops; artisan, craft, and performance arts guilds—using a surprising amount of stuff out of old land fills. Most people live in some form of cooperatively owned structure with occupants responsible for maintenance and resale or exchange within the economic network.

 

Your Low-Risk/Optimized Long-Term Return financial priority carries through to this time as Greatest Effect/Last Loss; a core principle of Permaculture Design applied to all nutrient, energy, and economic systems. Advocacy to that effect led to:

 

  • A huge increase in cooperative loan fund investment dollars now easily accessible through individual and cooperatively-held retirement funds;
  • Voters learning to ask which candidates for public office have the lowest carbon footprint and spend the least amount of money on campaigning, choosing from among these Green Mentor Candidates;
  • Passage of the National Fee-and-Dividend Carbon Tax (see attached documents from Citizen’s Climate Lobby–www.citizensclimatelobby.org);
  • Changes in income tax structures so that the top revenue generators has options of paying up to 80% of their income in taxes or investing up to 60% of their revenue in their bioregional community at 0% interest, for up to 20 years. These percentages and length of loan terms vary from highest for those in the top 1% revenue category, to lowest and shortest loan terms for those in the 21% to 30% of revenue in the prior year. Any wealth taxes paid in lieu of 0% interest bioregional loans are usually invested in cooperative homes, businesses, services, and commodities;
  • Reversal of that weirdness about corporations having the civil rights of personhood.

 

Finally, these  evolutionary economic measures culminated in our globally recognized Ecological Rights of Earth.

  • CQI Information and Economic System Design Standards research equivalent analogs between permaculture principles, procedures, values, ethics and thermodynamically optimized sustainability of ecosystemic synergetic outcomes, with least dissonance and value loss.
  • Economic positive value development systemically follows positive functional information string trends of Bayesian analysis. In other words, Win-Win gaming strategies optimize regenerative and inclusive development strategies, while win-lose assumptions tend to sub-optimize and become exclusively valued by those with greatest accumulated value (functional capacity) and power (autonomous force-freedom) frequencies, at global expense to sustainability of life.
  • Competitive, ego-centric paradigms become exclusive, monopolistic, run-away positive feedback systems for wealth/power centers, becoming overly extractive of long-term sustainability from the population, polyculture, and ecosystem as a whole.

 

Once it became redundantly clear that competitive win-lose extractive markets, rooted in the assumption of self-perpetuating gravitation toward existing wealth and power deposits as normative ethical values (eco-normics) would always sub-optimize sustainability for future generations and sacrifice inclusive systemic diversity, thereby further eroding and weakening future evolutionary potential, then it became culturally normative to economically embrace our permacultured natural systems regenerative roots. Cooperative, diverse bioregionally-centric (rather than anthropocentric) markets, habitats, enterprises, gardens, farms, communities, communication, information networks emerged globally normative, and re-established a strong regenerative slow-growth ecological and evolutionary economic network. (See the attached study from the Tellus Institute for their research germane to future regenerative development trend comparisons.)

 

So, this cooperative economy did emerge out of your generation’s Permaculture Design, and your New Economics became Positive Evolutionary Economics, and your Deep Ecology, but this first appeared in the Synergetics of Buckminster uller, who grew up in a Unitarian cultures. Anyway, putting it all together led to global resonance for a (0)-sum economic norm for each living system. The true value of any investment measures time and energy resources committed toward the outcome in this moment.

 

Value has become more closely associated with nutrition and well-being and disvalue with dissonance and decay. A nutritious house is one that delivers energy and shelter and beauty, and smells and feels good, and interacts with natural sounds and light and does not pollute our soil, water, or air. A nutritious relationship is one that delivers energy and shelter and beauty, and smells and feels good, and sounds and looks natural, light, resonant, resilient. These are the value attributes for information, communication, communities, these are the relationships of belonging, a Green Sanctuary place called home. When we see and hear and feel and smell these values about ourselves, then we feel at peace and at home with ourselves, and with those around us, I mutually mindful gratitude for this Green Sanctuary economy of optimized ecological value.

 

No one owns time,

So no one owns temporally functional realities,

So no one owns this informating canvas of ecologically grown Earth,

So no one owns soil, water, air,

So no one owns information, frequency, force

Or form or function of any kind.

We are each and all of, by, and for this informating Earth-bound

Universal Intelligence we share,

As energy is to information,

Yang is to Yin,

Balanced Tao (0)-sum cooperative economy of grace.

 

We have worked on the pre-millennial Golden Rule, giving it a bit of a tweak, more of a permacultured brand and articulation:

 

  • Assign to others the same responsibility and values that you are willing to receive from your own practice, as well as all that positive intention.
  • Give others, including all species, past and future, the rights of freedom, responsibility, and integrity that you would have them give to you.
  • The universal right of integrated freedom and responsibility optimally incarnates through balancing synergetic justice with responsible self-authority—mutual eco-logical subsidiary solidarity within Earth’s natural spacetime information systems.
  • Water our confluent flowers and mulch them with our dissonant weeds. Harvest positively deviant seeds for strategic spring planting where most useful to Earth’s Common Tribe.
  • Learn to fly cooperatively together, like flocks of airborne geese, so we don’t fly apart quite so awfully much.

 

I know your era of divestment, the post-millennial tipping point, was difficult, as are all Trimtab functions, learning from both confluence and dissonance how to more astutely aim for (0) eco-centric balanced cultural and economic values. I hate to think what might have happened if you had not done your best, as always. Maybe I would be living in some dark silo waiting for what’s left to end, longing to belong, yinning for Yang.

 

Your incarnation continues. Namaste.

Gaia’s Cultural History Lesson

Dr. Kathleen Gaia, vaguely associating with the Sisters of Perpetual Peace, drew her first equity credits through the Social Work Department. But, as with nearly all functions, and perhaps some dysfunctions as well, pertaining to Dr. Gaia, this became a controversial matter for a time, early in the Post-Millennial Period, as the Green Revolution was drawing toward its inevitable close.

Dr. Gaia insisted that her students should call her Kathleen, not Sr. Kathleen, not Dr. Kathleen, but not Kathy, or Kate, or, most vehemently, NOT Katey. This preference became iconic of her regenerative iconoclasm. Kathleen was her own tour de force, especially in her view of history and evolution, and economics, and metric systems, and information….  OK, maybe the word especially is not the best choice; perhaps eclectically would be better. Anyway, case in point, Kathleen was almost solely foundational to the School of Social Work becoming the School of Ecologic Practice.

It’s so difficult to know where her history of cultural evolution story actually begins because everything about her spirals around into everything else about her. Kathleen is a spinning regenerative, life sustaining, revolution, whether she spends the day in mindfulness practice, just breathing deeply, what she calls positive intention, as if she sees Mother Earth writing down her intentions, her attendance, her presence, each moment of each day, and night; or whether she is consulting for the U.N.’s ReGenesis Committee. Kathleen is of, by, and for abundantly fertile compost-culture.

Kathleen came to what was then the School of Social Work with an outrageous Dissertation proposal probably because she was a Buckminster Fuller scholar and a Permaculture Designer. One or the other might not have triggered her personal cultural revolution, but that she understood Fuller as a Permacultural Teleologist seems to have set the stage for her unusual entry into, and eventual symbiotic relationship with, our Ecology Practice Department. She confronted not only a huge cultural gap but her dissertation became more of a transliterative dictionary of self-inflicted terminology than she would have greatly preferred. On the other hand, this early translation project grew intrinsic to her capacity to sustain Positive Intention (also known as Basic Attendance) throughout a wide range of paradigms and interactive environments, sometimes quite heated. She just keeps coming back to her symbiotically interdependent principles of Regenerative Systems.

 

Buckminster Fuller’s Permacultural and Teleological Regenerative Information Conjecture

 Rev. Kathleen 0. Gaia

Synopsis

 

Buckminster Fuller’s rather too comprehensive Synergetics: Explorations in the Geometry of Thinking came to fruition while Gregory Bateson’s parallel reflections were published under the titles of Steps to an Ecology of Mind and Mind and Nature. Meanwhile, at Yale, then Princeton, Julian Jaynes produced his major opus, The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind.

These titles, and the undercurrents within these three thought streams, might combine as Explorations in the Geometric Ecology of our Bicameral Mind. Unlike Bateson, both Fuller and Jaynes move toward an evolutionary teleology, the conjecture that evolution follows a positive trending intersection toward a primal intersection of both ecological meaning and economic purpose, or value-transfer confluence. Bateson and Jaynes, unlike Fuller, are interested in the mapping emergence of pattern and learning. Jaynes, unlike Bateson and Fuller, is interested in the cultural and historical evolution of our Left-Right hemispheric brains, or, more specifically, the emergence of Left-hemispheric dominance, which he thinks of as an evolutionary breakdown or perhaps breakthrough in his later reflections.

Each of these seminal thinkers, and others more epistemologically inclined, such as Thomas Kuhn, Karl Popper, David Bohm, lived, thought, wrote, published during the late-Industrial Revolution era. This was also the time when Albert Einstein’s Theory of Relativity was the culturally dominant model for understanding spacetime. It was not until the early post-millennial era that Fuller’s work came to cultural dominance, recognizing both that relativity is a function of primal relationship and that Einstein had explicitly assumed a 4 equi-dimensional spacetime Commons, or Hilbert Space, only within which the conversion formulas for measuring energy in relation to space and time are applicable. Our ego-relativity aside, within spacetime universe, our eco-relational Commons can be optimally comprehended through a redundantly tetrahedral fractal development pattern, as evinced by the regenerative pattern of RNA, the 4-prime dimensional base implied within atomic metamorphosis, and the Group Theory work of Gregori Perelman and William Thurston. Their intellectual children are not just chaos and complexity theories, but also what has become the Permaculture Design Movement.

 Fuller does not experience our cognitive ecology as responding to static information. He sees geometry as a way of describing and predicting relationships in a constantly changing, revolving, physical universe. Math is about verbs, action, relationships; not so much about stasis, nouns, nomials, names, numerals, lifeless symbols. Jaynes understands the development of symbols and language in a similar evolutionary functional model. Jaynes’ lens was as a psychological ethologist. He believed that nature’s evolution systemically predicated the development of a dominant, deductive, self-conscious left-hemisphere. There is a natural and functional teleological explanation for the development of self-awareness, also causally related to the development of early language and written symbols.

During the early 21st Century, Permaculture and Synergetics melded into the Prime Universal Principles:

  •  Spacetime prime, rational, relationships evolve into, and from, 4 equi-dimensional thermodynamic and magnetic balanced frequencies and functional, confluent relationships, trending toward synergetic formation. 
  • Original Teleological Intent: Prime binomial, and binary, relationships self-organize and perpetuate universal open energy, and information, systems.
  • Omega Point Optimization Practice: The mindful effectiveness of regenerative integral multisystemic therapeutic design increases as negative dysfunctional monochromatic silos of competitive ego-nomial [formerly known as economic] ecologies decrease.
  • Information can only exist within a systemic identity; the absence of absence. Polynomial spacetime information is the positive functioned face of the absence of reversed temporal, Not-Polynomial negative spacetime–which Bohm refers to as Implicate Order. 

 In other words, bottom line, compassionate mindfulness increases within human natural systems as ego-passionate irrationality and dissonance decrease; a teleological tautology. Active peaceful practice grows where nonviolent intent and design is planted. This has become the Prime Permacultural Principle of Thermosystemic Balance.

 

Kathleen responded to concerns that her theoretical frame would be more appropriate to our Environmental Sciences Department, or maybe even what was left of the moribund and largely dysfunctional Economic History Department, through the development of her therapeutic model. She understood cultural history, including anthropology, as the narrative incarnation of informational string theory. Resilient, inclusive, sustained articulation, connection, weaving of globally interspeciated and intergenerational information-Codex strands, comprehended as a positive-intent, cooperative information network, produces optimizing therapeutic intervention trends. In other words, our healthy ecological systems are intrinsically therapeutic, and follow the natural system development trajectory of positive evolution. Unfortunately, the Industrial Revolution, a by-product of Left-brained dominance—also known as Yang-centric imbalance—severed eco-nomic value transfers from their eco-logical nutritional root system. So, to Kathleen’s permacultural way of looking at our Tree of Life, if we want our social work project design to meet Continuous Quality Improvement multi-systemic information standards, then obviously we have to re-ligion, reconnect our cooperative economic production to our interdependent and synergetic ecological root system. It is not an integral, optimizing systemic development practice to sever our social investment strategies, and practice, from the richly fertile wealth of our ecological wisdom, and intent.

Her advocacy for a global cooperative eco-normic networks illustrates how Kathleen applied her Regenerative Ecological Practice to more specific public sector planning proposals.

 

In all my benighted years as the United Nation’s EcoChaplain I have heard an ear-full of mind numbing noise. But, nothing more so than this endless chaotic and dissonantly suffering confusion of egonomics with econormics. So, if you would be so kind, I would ask if you might focus on breathing together for a few moments, soften your eyes, and listen as we time travel together back in history.

Our time, this time that we have each chosen to walk and sing and dance on Earth, has been long predicted. Some have called it the Second Coming, others the Great Apocalypse, others the Great Turning. Each of us breaths together in this room today because our species’ karma evolved us to know everything we need to know to uncover our mutual gratitude for winter’s harsh wind voices. Until we can appreciate what the discontent of this Great Winter Transition can teach us, we cannot enter our promised land of eternal spring.

So let us imagine ourselves reborn into the advent season, within our mother’s womb. This is our time of metamorphosis from permacultural seed into our regenerative Earth Tribe, rebirth conceiving abundant opportunity. Our short-term risk is only stepping faithfully into appropriate gratitude for our mutual subsidiarity, trusting the principle of waxing and waning reversion, within Mother Earth’s nurturing care.

 

We belong to Her clearings

Her places panoramic

Older than our Logos Voice of culture.

 

We toddle, listen

memorize Your scent as this day’s time;

Your shadows, curves, slopes, curls,

a panoply of silent places

shaping paradigms for mind’s rest

imagining Your scale as mine

to play or hide

or grow smaller

or dance

to sounds of nature’s buzz and chatter,

clack and clatter,

august synapzzz resounding quake of grounding gravitas,

moving, shifting, hunting

resting silently again.

 

Behind my breath

I hear Yours

and ours together

before this voice,

interrupts our nutrient bath,

through intimate birthing horizons,

vast belonging songs

string back to cultured paradise cavern,

pearl of advent crystal-ringing exform’s mythic treasure.

 

This Great Transition to reflow our rivers,

warm tears spiraling down our drainpipes

into warming seas of salty fears containing

all Earth’s regenerated tears through past years

and generations,

a sea-green latticed pearl of tears

cooperatively compiled from EarthTribe’s

quakes and pains,

suffering and surprising joy.

 

Tears come with sad

but also wildly glad

Gaia cares not which way she collects them.

These are Her tears to share with Father Sky,

their seeds of immense iniquity,

but also equity

absorbing pain and suffering,

lubricating ecstatic pleasure,

tears water sap

filled abundantly rich nutrients

re-hydrogenating,

regenerating,

creating

catharsis leads to slower grace,

wisdom to hear both pain slow smoke-filled exhalation

and wild enthusiasm’s equally valued teachers,

mentors along our permacultured path,

learning to water regenerative values

by starving long-suffered disillusion.

 

To starve long-suffered disillusionment, our growing absence of active hope, these are negative ways of describing our new millennial positive teleological faith. The fact that some of us still exist, although the number of species is dwindling, that anything exists at all, proves the lie of this Closed Universal System assumption of cosmology, and gives deductive power of reason to hope for final outcomes other than entropy and dissonance.

Perhaps it is believing we are each ultimately mortally bound independent ego identities that draws our minds to this Closed Universal System assumption. But, our sensory experience protests this irrational conclusion and draws us, instead, toward faith in our interdependently immortal freedom, released from spacetime’s ego-consciousness, bringing power to hope, grow faith, regenerate love for our open systemed Permaculture Paradise.

 

If it is our Tao

if it is true

that Original Intent predicts

what Teilhard de Chardin’s Omega Point articulates,

that this globally resounding echo through our universe of post-millennial time

reconnects our religions with our science and our best artistic grace,

then could we please agree that we have chosen to begin anew together,

to fly together,

not fly apart,

to dance and sing in permaculturing, eco-normic, widening circles,

not march and shout in diminishing extractive ego-centric markets.

 

Some of us do not believe it was a coincidence that we were born at this time together. Together we have sufficient knowledge, we simply lack the power to be where we belong, in some future paradise moment, both ecologically and economically balanced, inclusive, fair, with fresh air and water, and plenty of wholesome food for all the Earth’s Tribes, regenerating diversity into our sustained future.

We have a messianic dream and live a crucifying nightmare of anguish.

 So, once again, I ask you to close or soften your eyes, breathing in Earth’s radiant energy, into our lungs and blood streams and neural systems. Then breathing out and down, imagine following your deep and tender root system into the past, down toward Earth’s core, from which emerges all our diversely interdependent root systems. Breath in Father Sky’s radiantly productive energy, and exhale in and down and through and back to where spacetime begins with all of us together. Here, in this interconnectedness, in this symbiotic vulnerability, we experience our shared messianic vocation.

Hear our new millennial Messiah Voice first as our shared suffering and loss:

 

Messiah’s Torch Song to Mother Earth

 

I have given up on us

because you gave up on us

before I even came along.

 

You saw in me some hope

that maybe you were wrong

perhaps my humane race could be redeemed

if just one would take the time

to notice and care

that you are.

 

But, I was not that one for you.

The one to see wealth

where you have it

rather than long to be fed

with what is not yours to provide.

 

It breaks my heart to know

that I can’t fix yours.

I step into your absent grace

and here I am with you

where I have only seen you

as my fixer-upper.

 

I am afraid to be your only love

it feels too much to ask of me

to love you when you’ve never loved another.

Can you tell me why

I never cry

when I try to hurt you?

Can you tell me why I only cry

when I tell you that I need you?

 

But I can’t find you.

I had given up on me

before we ever came along.

 

I saw in you my last life’s hope

that I could share myself

without running out

until our dying day.

We would never end

telling stories of now,

and then,

and why we never want this one to end.

We would look outside

in each other’s eyes

and see inside

through each other’s eyes.

It’s your nervous roots within your skin

your mind,

your heart,

too weakly fibrillating for faith

that I might care

and know you as you are.

 

And yet your hope,

it lingers there,

ringed trees glow reminder

when there is hope that’s positive

then water it with light.

My hope emerges warm teared compost

for our faith that love could be for us

to share such diverse synergy,

grow love for all who come to share

this pilgrim floored and worn-out rug.

 

This transition time, our time, all time is the measure of relationship. Relationships, each one, taken together, are our time. How and where, with whom do we invest our nutrient time-relationship? In which values, and are these positively intended or negatively practiced, harmonious or dissonant, automated autistic ego-stressed suffering? We would wisely water harmonious, emergently evolving ecosystems, in part by starving silos of ego-centric monocultures.

 Where are our most holistic human natural systems? Where endure our surviving permacultured seeds of hope? Where are our Shaman Warriors for Peace?

 Look to your most regenerative mentors. Those few leaders who are more about walking our revolving-reverting pilgrimage together than about talking individualistic creeds, designs, and plans for personal salvation. Then give priority to those who work with young people, sharing regenerative mentoring skills, creating positive, healthy peer-support environments to sustain life. Find master gardeners who live as well as they eat, permaculture designers whose cooperative intensions sync with their regenerative designs, ecosystemic ministers who understand nutrients and toxins can be absorbed through all the senses, from taste through feeling, sound, voices internal and external, sight internal and external, fragrance and stench. Divided and splintering spiritual strains are decaying and dissonant. We need to follow our nutrient string back to our Original Intent, our permacultural story, of Tao harmony, of active peace introducing abundant global love, of a justice that balances mercy for self as interdependent with others, sharing both responsibility and opportunity for reweaving broken communication and community fibers composing our universal Tree of Life.

Your religious, faith, intentional communities, having found their shared cultural root system, are now free to lead our public sectors, and our public sectors can be free to once again lead our humane nature toward eco-logical intension and design informing eco-normic global practice. This is the economic right of nature, to regenerate through the balancing evolution of mutual gratitude between Self and Other, Yang and Yin, Explicating and Implicating Systems, Convex with Concave, as our universal longing folds into our global belonging, within Earth’s nurturing care.

Spacetime Lament

I.

I’ve said it all before,

last time you firmly closed my door.

 

Where have my words dreamed since then,

hiding fugitives in labyrinthine recesses,

backwaters of insane progress

confidently processing toward unknown intent?

 

I’ve feared it all before.

This flirtive closing door

on other sides far too vast

with needs sucking out my lungs

squeezing timid-static heart

closing rich sensory prehensile shutters

until concaving Yin weeps with righteous loneliness.

 

She’s sung it all before

time’s merciless karmic door

open always as before

yet No Admission

without formal dress,

accessorized dysfunction.

 

II.

You’ll say it all again

next time I mercy fuck your home.

 

What will your words do next time,

laughing boldly through primordial eclipse,

surging equinoxing rivers

streaming global madness fear?

 

You’ll find me once again,

my grace-open salvific door.

Death’s other side slowly swims

languidly breathing advent into

fertile faith-ballooning diastasis,

wide-sweeping invite into ego-silence,

warm echo belonging,

blanketing Yang’s eternal karmic kiss.

 

He’ll dance with Yin again

in carnaling EarthTribe’s permacultured soil

zero-carbon holonic balancing

banquet for all Earth to savor

frequent fractal organic fusions.

 

I’ve said this all before

time gave birth to four dia-metric space,

biological, binomial, and bicameral,

in Bucky’s regenerate,

synergetic,

geometric (0) soul-fractal place.

 

III.

Yang encultured power praxis,

male-dominatrix history.

Yin polyculturally integrating harmony,

feminist nutrient permaculture.

Revolve in RNA’s relational fractal structure,

regenerating natural systemic template:

U = +P

C = (-)NP

A = Yang-convex Vertex

G = Yin-concave’s Dark Vortex

cooperatively stringing

reweaving

Earth Tribal Declaration of Interdependence

Dr. Owl, from the Treeology Department, drafted the Declaration of Interdependence, borrowing heavily from the nature-spirit traditions and Regenerative Systems Theory. Some cultural historians attribute the outbreak of the Green Revolution to the promulgation of her draft to the Assembly of Biospecies.

 

Green Revolution Declaration of Universal Grace Ecology, Economy, Treeology, etc., etc., etc.

Regenerative Systems Development Theorem

[Reverse Corollary of Cognitive Dissonance Theory and the Positive Deviance Conjecture that Polynomial Time = Non-Polynomial Information Codex -1 (C-Yin) = +0 (U-Yang)]

 We seem to die to regenerate toward flying together, like the stardust from which we emerged, and Gaia’s root systems rewoven within, reflecting what our bicameral minds have discovered evolving without; and not flying apart into disharmonious chaos and entropy and irrationality quite so awfully much.

We are a stardust Earth Tribe, of, by, and for sustaining all living systems and species.

We refuse to confine our lives within benighted and arbitrary death sentences and even whole paragraphs and paradigms.

After all, a creature’s a person,

We are becoming aware that the opposite of life is chaos, dismay, decay, dissonance, entropy.

We are becoming aware the opposite of the absence of relationship,

between informing as Implicate Order and unraveling as Bohm’s Explicate Order,

We are a Bicameral ReGenesis Project sowing seeds of permacultural cooperative, profoundly inclusive, balanced polycultures,

We are incubating our most long-sustained fertility in centered peaceful compost

between Left and Right hemispheres,

balancing away from Left-brained, deductive dominance,

balancing a long-term risk avoidant economy and a cost-effective preservation of Gaia’s ecosystems, well-seasoned optimization of Earth’s natural cycles,

like sap rising toward our branches in early spring, followed, in late fall, by the reverse rain of self-regenerative seeds scattered on the polycultured compost of mindful remembering and diversely inclusive compassion.

We are Earth’s Tree of Systemic Life, a Commons, held within our deepest (0)-sum ecology of gratitude,

especially for the winter’s of implicating, brewing, fermenting, precessive stillness,

predicating summer’s positive, actively incarnating production of leaves and flowers and fertile seeds.

We are watering and harvesting our flowers, worrying not so much about those dissonant weeds over there,

somewhere, anywhere, everywhere.

We are dancing in ever richer circles,

with less marching in ever-shrinking effractive markets.

We are a recycling fractal Human-Natured Tribe

We are a Bicameral Tribe with a shamanic conjecture:

Earth reveals, temporally uncovers, our Without,

Earth’s spacetime Original Intent awareness,

to teach us equity, peace, grace, and justice Within,

Bucky Fuller’s Universal Intelligence as a positively-trending information string,

I Believe…

I believe the political power implications of a universal eco-spirituality is an emerging cooperative economic vision revoluionarily erupting since we achieved global information networking capacity.

I believe all spiritual traditions and cultures share a primal comprehension that we do not need more knowledge to fulfill our Earth-bound paradise resolving vocation; we merely need to more deductively understand what we already intuitively prehend.

I believe economic values incarnate ecological virtues already emerging into who we are together as a global polycultural EarthTribe.

I believe that “spiritual” is a very old word for “humane nature;” so panentheistic; not independent of nature, but rather an inductive/deductive dialogue with nature. Nature and spirit are interdependent as Yang (+e-function) and Yin (-e-function). [See Euler, or B. Fuller on Euler, or David Bohm on Explicate v. Implicate temporally-unfolding strings of formative/disformative/diaformation energy]

I believe each local community and our entire global species derive from a positive meaning/purpose Original Intent [teleology; not necessarily theology] toward homophily, love, synergy, integrity, co-passionate mind/form out of which this experience emerged way far back prior to language, when life began through 4-equidimensional acid-based regenerative mutuality.

I believe a very old verb-word “Tao” for goodness, beauty, truth, equity, combined together in one fractal-integrity structure, is dynamically binomial, as YangNature/YinSpirit, which is 4-dimensionally, natural, systemic, universal articulation of grace (West) or karma (East), aka, evolution, incarnation.

I believe that this nature/spirit dialogue is fundamentally informed by the profound integrity between human nature’s DNA-coded Interior Landscape, binomial orthopraxis “mental space,” reflecting Hilbert-spacetime, system-optimizing, cognitive-regenerative natural universe Exterior Universal Landscape.

I believe the Theory of spacetime Relativity, normatively unfolds in our (0)-soul Prime Yang/Yin binomial [“binary” within digital information processing universes] Relationship toward a global politically, socially, economically, ecologically, ionically-balancing emergent Positive Teleology of Synergetic Regenerativity.

I believe this (0) soul polarity we share is Zeroism’s binomial prime fold of integrity, and that a permacultural reconnecting with this universal comprehension will also rejoin our political longing with our cultural belonging, our economic purpose with our ecological meaning, our nature with our spirit, our Yang with our Yin, our tomorrow with our today,our becoming and our Being, our function and our (in/ex)Forming-evolution in this Eternal Tao Moment.

I believe, therefore, when polynomial spacetime information becomes equivalently reverse-balanced by non-polynomial  Implicate reverse-temporal Order, then we have a Trimtab, tipping-point, global permacultural threshold moment, teaching, mentoring, reminding us of our regenerative information string back to before time, when Universal Prime Rationality was confluently functional form, in +/- thermodynamic balanced trajectory toward our re-emergent future paradise.

I believe as without, so within,

as before, so after,

as above, so below,

as stimulus, so response,

as belonging, so longing,

as meaning, so purpose,

as originally intended, so regeneratively extended,

as Yin, so Yang,

as time, so space,

as reverse-temporal-functional, so in-formed,

as Implicate reverse ordered, so Explicate Positive Teleology,

as nature, so humane spirit-nature,

as karma, so grace,

as mind, so com-passion,

as faith, so love,

as hope, so faith,

enthymeme, so hope,

TrimTab pathology-as-teacher, so positive therapy

as NP, so P

as -(-), so +,

as +binomial-temporal QBit e-function, so (+)=(-) polynomial e-function-square root (0)-CoreChi Boson.

Tao as Positive Teleological Panentheism

Toward a Positive (0) Soul Panentheism

 

This narrative attempts to define a three-dimensional cognitive spacetime within a 4 dimensioned Hilbert space optimized-meaning metric-system universe. This binomial Hilbert Space algorithmic structure assumes a 4-based metric system (one base for each of 4 universe dimensions) and +/- e-function  [agreeing with Euler and B. Fuller that information and metric systems are more primally about relational function (verbs) than nouns, so (0) Core function is the prime root of all form] bears a prime relationship to +/- pi-squared diametric form.

 

DEFINITIONS toward a Positive Teleological Theorem

 

Theorem: Exegetically “True” [+1] that a conjecture could not be “False” [-0]

 

In-Formation: enthymematic potentially confluent synchronization in an explicating (David Bohm) positive trajectory [+e-function]

 

Ex-Formed: NonPolynomial side of binomial +/- information axial-polar implied (David Bohm), predicated, ergetic-ionic gravitational [B. Fuller]  relational structure.

Dark Relationship (Hole) is  spacetime chaos, or shadow, universe.

Hilbert Space relational geometric constants liminally prime-bind, and optimize cognitive orthopraxis, physical relativity within logical/rational limits of consciousness and, therefore, metric structure.

4-Based diametric (binomial) positive teleological assumption. For now, the best I can do is an analogy. Imagine that there is a Tree of spacetime evolution and that the human species’ bicameral mind perceives the tree growing up toward the sky as Physical Universe, and the tree growing down toward the (0) Core of ergetic spin as Metaphysical Universe. The metaphysical roots of this Positive Teleological Evolutionary Tree are our Species’ nutrient/composting DNA string, unweaving all the way back and within Dark spacetime toward the origins of RNA, which may be the beginning of spaciated time (see Julian Jaynes on the ethological evolution of our bicameral information processors and his correlated evolutionary theory of space perception deriving from a more primal temporal aptic/synaptic  relational awareness) differentiating Self [-0] from Other [+1].

0-soul theorem: Gregori Perelman and Group Theory work by William Thurston predict no more than 4-binomial +/- geometrically balanced ellipses, in 0 through 4 prime dimensions.  Within each ellipse, we follow Buckminster Fuller in heuristically assuming universal smooth-structure. His Trimtab greatest effect with least dissonant loss design principle also intends to follow systemic tipping points to minimize disvalues, irrationality, insanity, through a 0-Core Vector/Vortex. Fuller assumes metric information systems express relationship, including potential change, more primally, and significantly, than being about algebra’s variables, nouns, nomials. Math is about function more primally than nomial form. In this he follows Euler, so that Fuller’s 0-soul core vector might be expressed as +e/-e diametric binomial (0) Core Vector/Vortex, radiating and synergizing a 4-Based fractal universal Omega Point (borrowing from Teilhard de Chardin).

According to this 0-soul theorem’s smooth-structured assumption, dense analogical geometric corollaries follow:

As within (-), so without (+)

As before (-), so after (+)

As below (-), so above (+)

as Right-elliptical  inductive (-), so Left-elliptical deductive (+)

as Right-diastolic (-), so Left-diastasis (+);  thermodynamically balanced, this defines diastasis as well as optimized enculturation, or permacultural balance, a Climax Community

as -0 False, so +1 True, within binary digital processor expression of magnetic axial polarity

This latter corollary suggests that Bayesian trend analysis, using +1/-0 polynomial assumptions, are also binomial assumptions of Positive Teleology and thermodynamic magnetic polarity balance. This may be why the combination of QBit stage analysis of potential information, especially as structured in the development code of the Higgs Boson, and Bayesian statistical analysis predicts an e-function for Bohm’s implicate order as ex- or un-forming. Potential information loses a geometric 4-dimensional rational structure beyond nature’s RNA-coded accessibility to deductive reason and commodification capacity. Irrational numerics are not prime relationship balanced, by definition. Prime and irrationality are mutually self-definitive and refining, like polynomial and not-polynomial language processing trends.

Not-polynomial information (NP) = appositionally reversed-binary polynomial information (P) relationship. P and NP are digitally vector/vortex balanced polarity expression. If so, we might predict that Continuous Quality Improvement information system codes for network improvement might look something like

-000% = +111%

Bicameral mutual positive/negative feedback between two information processors would start here, with +1 representing +111, and -0 representing -000. Within each information bit lies a Dark Relationship Fractal Vortex implicating within each individual bit’s 4-binomial Byte familial boundary:

+110 =  -001

+101 = -010

+100 = -011 [and F = -G for full musical resonance, just as +U = -C within the RNA information fractal]

Prime octave thermodynamic balance assumes +e/-e constancy which is binary system expressed as +e radiance (up and out) = -e ergetic diastolic function (down and in) as gravity.

Information is to exformed noise as Prime Relationship pattern-trends are to irrationally patterned algorithms. For Fuller, non-sensical (not sensory-information frequency prime rooted) for humans as a species to actually use for optimally inclusive effect.

 

Panentheism: Binomial (Spirit/Nature = Down/Up = Within/Without) Metaphysics/Physics mutually regenerative and informative enthymematicism. This has to do with the appearance of temporal reversal between deductive and inductive learning. Our Right, older-brain, hemisphere perceives prime relationship in reverse spatial-temporal sequence and order. Metaphysics is within Earth and within Self, and Physics is what happens on and above Earth’s skin, in my exterior landscape of Other.

Enthymematic is before and yet within the relationship between two nomials, variables, nouns, verbs, memes, paradigms, paths, systems, universes; like an interior and exterior fractal Janus-faced relationship between before and after a spacetime event. (Please see Robert Norton and David Brenders, 1996, on enthymematic communication strings, and the laws of interactive relationship-string development.)

In Positive Teleological Panentheism, God-Physical Universe emerges as WeSelf = +1.00% while

Individuating Person–my “Self”– is an emergent but temporally-constant-presence, 4-dimensioned; a cognitive mind Identity-Universe metrically expressed as a combination of Planck’s Constant meets Positive Teleological Prime Relationship meets Turing’s incomplete search for a logically optimized information processor design meets a double-bind event horizon of the holographic principle in string theory. This is self-consciousness of a “Self” identity = +/-(0.00-Temporal-Centric)% = -(1.00)% spacetime eisegetical awareness (basically Polanyi”s Personal Knowledge) is implicately coded with a binomially balanced normative original instruction to follow natural systemic assumptions for  smooth-structured positive teleological orthonormative optimization .

This Self is, in Group Theory, a (0) prime-rooted binomial information universe, +e/-e-functionally balanced.

God as WeSelf Universe is bicamerally human functioned in the Right hemisphere, older brain. For important work in this area Julian Jaynes’ work on the evolutionary ethology of bicameral development, essential to the development of  consciousness, 3-dimensional spatial awareness, language, and symbolic abstraction, is well-complemented and updated somewhat by the more recent work of David Abram.  Especially note the evolutionary functional implications for “Other” synaptic messages as the exception to our RNA-Codex default setting of +U as aptic-sustained–probably something like hibernation, at some point in our species’ history.

WeSelf as Other+Me identity is positively [+e] functional, congruent, confluent in the Left hemisphere–the resting place of deductive reasoning and bicameral self-consciousness.

Left-brained conversation with Right-brained may be + Teleological default or (-)Teleological corrective, but is usually somewhere between positive-deductive-synaptic and negative-inductive synchronic. Fuller’s word is synergetic to describe those events in which these two cognitive threads (deduction and induction) recognize each other. His precession, refers to the diastolic half of an active diastatic enculturative and regenerative trend. Diastolic is generally understood as an ergetic-gravitational pull inward toward an appositional synaptic stasis, which is synaptic-fractal for RNA’s living natural string system. Diastolic-aptic-precessive-trends are rests between beats, breaths, and moments of mind-consciousness, or self-awareness.

Reverse polarity causes appositional disorders. Autism is the full spectrum of dissonance between Right and Left hemispheric message transfer anomalies within our bicameral  multisensory systemic information transfer economy. Left sensory receptors propose, while Right message receivers dispose using permacultured principles of complementarity and subsidiarity. Cognitive dissonance is the result of the chronic incapacity to synchronize receptor and information processor messages which may be associated with any one, some, or all of our senses (taste, touch, smell, hear, see). The Right hemisphere functions exegetically with +NP (essentially, in logic, a double negative double-bind; in photography, the negative development enthymematic toward the development of a positive image) code frequency balance assumptions for sensory forms, functions, and frequency rhythms.

Dissonance between hemispheres may occur from very high-frequency receptors through very low aptic-default expression, from schizophrenia through cognitive limitations approaching flat-line morbidity. Generally we reserve the term “autistic spectrum” for those who are on the low-moderate through high-functioning portion of the bipolar chronically-disassociating spectrum. Critical event bipolar disassociations are more likely for those with Fetal Alcohol and others with chemically-related bipolar understories. In other words, we are all normatively bipolar but we use the word “bipolar disorder” to refer to issues related to critical event dissonance between right and left hemispheres. We usually diagnose “autistic spectrum disorder” when right-left dissonance  expresses chronically, as well as critically, and within moderate to high-frequency sensory receptor issues.

A double-bind boundary functions normatively for maintaining individual constant identity within any one individuating metaphysical (binomial) information universe; any one person, or bicameral information system. The double-bind line between deductive-left and inductive-right awareness may be symbolized as the line between polarities; the line we draw between numerator and denominator, the line within the % icon, between + and (-), between Other and Self and between the appositive fields in 2-dimensionally expressed digital binary fields, and algorithms use “=” or not-so-equal signs.

Teleology: The Positive human-nature speciated faith that we will continue to evolve toward mindful compassion, where purpose and meaning connect, as do longing and belonging, becoming syncs to being, and individuation (a life-long maturation process) joins WeSelf  identity, as ontological form meets phenomenological function. Our species’ cultural evolution history from our earliest DNA-emergent string to the present day is mythologically and analogically articulated  as variations on the Golden Rule and Golden Ratio and Golden Fleece theme.

According to BuckyFuller, a deeply creative functional design is not only an evolutionary paradise for the designer but an Omega Point (de Chardin) to which we point as a Species through discovery of first or prime principles of nature. A prime principle would encompass and transliterate the relationships between our prime laws of physics and metrics and information. Indeed, a theory of everything, or at least a theory of information itself; an explanation of the unfolding relationship between form and its creative, regenerative, function. This is the point where we can satisfactorily connect the original purpose and source of informing purpose with what form means.

What is the ultimate function of form itself? is answered by looking back through evolution to when form began. For each of us, and for himself, and for our species as an information string stretching back to the original event of RNA self-regenerative capacity, Fuller’s answer was to become most fully who WeSelf are, finding optimized personal integrity within Universal Intelligence synergy by following the greatest effect with least dissonance principle of positive TrimTab adjustment. This is our becoming process toward a state of increasing balance between not only Left and Right personally, but as a species, within an RNA information-regenerative string. As more recently evinced in emerging theories of what lies behind Positive Psychology and the effectiveness of the Positive Deviance Initiative (www.positivedeviance.org), greatest sustainable complementarity with least dissonance for inclusive subsidiarity is our becoming process toward a state of increasing balance. Fuller’s active optimization through Trimtab intent and practice, also found as fundamental to Permaculture Design, is transculturally accessible through mindfulness of our richly diverse complementarity (within universal WeSelf) optimally sustained by our passionate gratefulness for our mutual equity of subsidiarity (as Self, mutually regenerating individuation and incarnation of WeSelf).

We see this normative definition of equity fractally expressed in natural system development, such as the four seasons of spin, life, and learning, as well as the emergence of the hydrogen atom from helium, perhaps a predication of the 4-dimensioned emergence of +e/-e-cubed, perhaps predicating+U/-C, predicating +We-synaptic/-Self-aptic, predicating Explicated Natural Universe Order/Implied Spiritual Metaphysical Universal Mind (Fuller’s Intelligence) as self-consciousness of Me-Identity, predicating

+1.11%/-0.00% may become a 4-Based metric thermodynamic balanced dimensional proof that P cannot be unequal to NP if we can optimally assume that +1 = -0 within binary binomial digital systems. And, a significant corollary for our iconic human nature, that for every +1 explicating, informing QBit we are invited to comprehend a -1 QBit implicated order of exformative, reversely-positionally functional fractally organized place-holder, a mind-space WeSelf regenerating spacetime WeSelf, as without, so within; exterior and interior landscapes become mutually +/- self-referencing.

Positive (P), then, is not-negative (NP) information as Yang-Yin prime relationship emergent double-bind balance.

 

Yin-Exformation devolves, recovers, in an enthymematically prime relationship with Yang’s positive information-uncovering events. -0 predicates +1 and -0 is the enthymematic binomial predicator of the possibility of +1QBit = +e-functional informing event AND

+/-0 QBit also stands equidistant between -1 QBit, a –e-dysfunctioning irrationally noisy and dissonant appositional balance that is invisible to Left or Right hemisphere alone–yet abundantly obvious when looked at stereophonically and thermodynamically together; -0QBit without a positive-balancer devolves toward an implicating -1.11% Dark Non-relationship C-aptic Codex of Self without Other, which cannot possibly exist.

After any +1QBit e-function event, -1QBit bears an enthymematic relationship to its NP equivalently implied non-event. This prime relationship balance is significant for orthonormal optimization within Hilbert spacetime. This may be the useful for comprehending the correlation between Bayesian statistical analysis to analyze the dynamic relationship between our diverse pathologies and their implications for predicting optimized therapeutic interventions.

Implied, exformed, enthymematic +/-0-frequency, the diastatic balanced moment between function and dysfunction, is the equidistant double boundary between Physical-natural universe and Metaphysical-mind universe, between explicated +1 and implicating -1 QBit. The Dark Universe of implied Prime Relationship Codex liminally defined by Light Universe’s prime natural explication is a dark vortex boson that, when noticed, displays an enthymematic reverse-formative potential function for predicating rich future possibilities for joining our spiritual meanings to our naturally experienced purposes, syncing where we have been with where we would like to sustainably arrive; comprehending form as the functional evolution of emerging WeSelf refinement, self-regenerative fusing definition within our meta-codexed universe. This sounds almost full circle back to the “divination” project of early alchemy, back in the days when science and religion and math were three languages about one mutually-shared Universe.

 

A prime relationship design corollary of Positive Teleological Panentheism:

The greatest synergetic effect (defined as confluent universally inclusive information complementarity) is the reverse face of least subsidiary negative gravitational and pathological dissonance, dismay, and decay. Our therapy is implicated, predicated, predicted when we listen to our pathology as a deeply rooted systemic teacher of meaning/purpose, longing/belonging, conjoined in comprehending Trimtab Original Intent, rebalancing as the Tao of Yang/Yin regenerative balance.

The President’s EcoChaplain

Sr. Kathleen Brennan, of the Order of Positive Intentions, is the 11th Interreligious EcoMinister Chaplain to the U.S. Congress, where she has been unusually…useful, and apparently ubiquitous. President Fuller is suffering from 2nd-term despondence-syndrome. His Cabinet seems to be leaking, the House is total chaos, and, while the Senate is somewhat more bicamerally balanced, good intentions far outweigh sustainable outcomes. Fuller feels ironically emptier of hope, much less faith that this mess will reweave into a viable fabric within his life time, much less his remaining two years.

When Ms. Fuller, his wife, found him flirting with suicidal ideation, she rather firmly invited onto his schedule a pastoral visit with the Congressional EcoMinister. Although not exactly sure that this appointment would add up to a regenerative future, his not-so-little intuitive voice resonated hopefully with this suggestion because of Sr. Brennan’s reputation as somehow unusually…useful.

President: Sr. Brennan, good of you to stop by. Hoping you might be able to help.

Chaplain: In what way, Mr. President?

P: Well, certainly not that way. Just “Bucky” please. “Mr. President” feels much too heavy right now, like somebody else I never really wanted to be.

C: So presidential Bucky isn’t unfolding as you had hoped, or intended, somehow.

P: I see what you did there, that reference to your Order’s vocational formation. What does that mean, anyway, I don’t recall meeting anyone else from the Positive Intentions Order. Ironic, Washington is a veritable compost pile of good intentions that don’t seem to come together anywhere close to whatever it is you are doing with this Positive Intention ecotherapy, or whatever you call it.

C: You covered quite a lot of ground there, Bucky. Maybe it would be helpful to talk about this disparity between your good intentions and how you define Positive Intent.

P: Well, maybe that’s part of my problem, while I am painfully aware that the road toward good intentions has killed far more people than malignant intent, I can’t work out why, exactly.

C: I doubt you know anyone with malignant intent.

P: What would you call suicidal ideation?

C: I would call that an oxymoron, If you have a positive intent toward self-destruction, you cannot actually incarnate that potentiality without sacrificing the positive polarity of your intended trajectory toward a sustainably peaceful life.

P: My life has been to try to be useful, where most needed, as inclusively as possible. But, it is the inclusivity itself that seems so utterly impossible from this position in Universal Intelligence.

C: Which is…?

P: As I am sure you know very well, the Regenerative System Development Platform has advocated for a cooperative (0)-sum post-millennial Trimtab transition for optimizing global Continuous Quality Improvement.

C: Quite a circular mouthful. So, your positive-teleological position revolves around this (0)-PrimeMutual value system. Is that how you define our “good intentions?”

P: Probably, although I would certainly use a lot more words, and numbers, and generate many polysyllabic hybrids about natural-metric systems development.

C: That does seem to be where you lose your constituency, all the irrational words, numbers, and assumption of malignant intent within the belief systems of those who oppose you, those malingering “Nay!”-sayers.

How do you reconcile your faith that we are all in this mess together with this fear of some proactive, organized, Order of Malignant Intent? While I doubt you have met anyone wearing society’s imprimatur of “Hopeless Sociopath,” I have spent some time in your prisons. A bicameral system with addictive sociopathology issues explores homicide as vicarious suicide. It feels like naked-wild risk, with the prophylactic of clothed hiddenness.

My (0)-sum win-win faith, and positive teleological intent, are not compatible with the view that your constituency would elect representatives who are addicted sociopathologists.  In other words, I wonder if you are confusing Positive Intent toward a regenerative, and sociotherapeutic, economy with Negative Intent toward globally inclusive suicide, as a species, and personally, within yourself.

P:  While I would be vastly relieved to learn that I am confused about the Other-Side’s malignant intent, I just can’t get my data-crunchers to come up with that optimized sustainable outcome trajectory. I mean, for example, if the rich and powerful define Winning the Economy Game as continuing to grow their wealth deposits, then all our synthesized projections for the future show exploding global population of increasingly marginal poverty, to say nothing of what it is doing to the dimming prospects of any (0)-carbon air-bound/soil-bound balanced ecosystem surviving anywhere on Earth.

C: So, your global information system is telling you that we cannot play a Win-Win Sustainable Ecology Game using Win-Lose socio-economic strategies.

Try this metaphor. Imagine that your constituency is a population of lotus flowers, able to physically see each other only above the surface of our Earth-pond. Your Prime (0)-sum cooperative economic platform is the pond’s surface. But, when you plunge down, under the surface, you can see that our species’ (0)-sum ecological center goes deeper down to where we share an emergent root system reaching down, with diminishing, yet still positively-regenerative intentional structure, into Earth’s rich polycultured compost. This cooperative permaculture feeds our root system, so nutrients flowing up have a regenerative infrastructural trajectory for all the individual lotus flowers, and their seed-bearing future generations.

On the other hand, one of the lotus flowers decides that he and his neighbors are more important than some other weedy-kinda-flowers on the other side of the pond, so they start sucking up all the nutrients, watching their distant RNA-cousins wilt and suffer, under the mistaken belief that they are protecting their childrens’ future while they are actually strangling their entire economic and ecological root-systemic capacity. The apparent suicidal ideation of those wilting flower-cultures on the other side of Earth’s pond are a lesson to all of us: Don’t forget that we are all (0)-sum centered where information fully reflects our most inclusive root system. This deeper ecologically balanced plateau emerges endosymbiotic Win-Win cooperative economies for nutrient flow up toward the next generation of lotus flowers.

Your suicidal ideation is your poli-cultural teacher, reminding you that we are all in this together, regardless of all the push-back necessary to bring global peace to the surface of Earth’s pond. You have no more right to choose suicide, Bucky, than a bipolar sociopath has to choose homicide. Choose to regenerate inclusive, cooperative polycultures; avoid malignant competitive monocultural silos of us-v-them, and me-v-we boundaries.

P: Is that your spiritual advice?

C: That’s my eco-equity Continuous Quality Improvement permacultured advice, straight out of the Order of Positive Intent’s prayer book, for greatest effect with least dissonance. We used to call it the Golden Rule, but now we are learning to apply it somewhat more broadly, to how we treat all species, all information, all communication, moments, days, lives, learning, and generations, past, present, and future, as EcoSelf (0) = Grace of Thermodynamic Balance [+ = (-)(-), as Yang = Reverse-Yin diametric restraint, as P = NP]—not so much Self-Centric, and refusing to play nice.

P: I think I regenerate, theoretically, what you did there—and I’m feeling positive, even hopeful, about this analogical way of comprehending QBit spacetime, and bicameral in/ex-formating systems development, and comprehensive coincidentalism, and universalism, and integral intelligence, and sociotherapy, and bicameral psychotherapy, and bioethics, and….

Assuming this might go on for a few hours, Sr. Brennan, EcoMinistry Chaplain, excused herself; without any apparent interruption of Bucky’s positively regenerative, and inclusively analogical, string theory, traveling its regenerative pilgrimage toward self-perpetuating organic compost.
