Deep Cooperative Climate Learning

Health issues and ecopolitical promise speak in dialectal fractals:
1. Notice hope
2. Understand positive faith
3. Believe with diastatic love regeneration
4. Polypath creolic integration is also notnot decomposing release,
wu wei double-binding midway image
Tipping Point discernment
toward further revolutionary adventures.

This full open-systemic octave
resonates 1-4 egocentric
with 1-4 EarthTribe’s MatriarchalPatriarchal BiCameral Golden Rule.
What starts Ego
ends deep in EcoPointing polypathic Earth.

Matriarchal/Patriarchal creolization
herein defined
as LeftBrain languaged ecopolitical dominance
with RightBrain nonverbal inductive-unitive-cooperative
ecological resonance.

We are in a sad Either/Or competing
ego v eco dis-centric
Yang v Yin anti-logical
LeftBrain dominant state.

But also bicamerally capable
of polypathic states
of LeftPatriarchal-RightMatriarchal grace.

Laotse’s content of governing information
and contentment of peaceful feeling
are nondual YangLeft/YinRight trust within Tao-God/GoddessEarth.

Governing authority ends
where responsibility begins
for polypathically using our LeftBrain
Yang universal-digital-binomial information health/pathology trends
and our RightBrain Yin co-empathic cooperative ecological balance,
together as eco-analogical revolutionary resonance.

Paraphrasing
multi-paradigming
The Physician (Luke 12:48)
From every humane emerging person
to whom much has been LeftBrain given,
much more will be RightBrain co-empathically
cooperatively asked,
regeneratively expected trust,
polypathically invited faith.

And,
building out from Dale B Martin’s epistemology of trust in faith:
“Our goal is to rest in the knowledge that we cannot now know fully
[polypathically, with full resonance]
but to determine that we will [deep learn] exercise
our brief and partial [LeftBrain languaged] knowledge
as [RightBrain faithfully] ethically
and [bilateral] lovingly as we can.”
(Biblical Truths, p. 70)

Healthy
regenerative
love
is the ultimate guide in creolizing polypathic epistemology.

Everything works both Yang-regenerative/Yin-degenerative ways.

All observation is ecologically co-relational (egoLeft-ecoRight).

Deductive top-down thinking fractals
culminate in bottom-up inductive
inclusive
multiculturing cooperative action fractals
toward revolutionary diastatic Beloved Community ReDevelopment.

The landscape is our textbook
and climate outcomes are our scripture.

Decomposing failure is useful
so long as we learn polypathic cooperation
along our shared way.

Elegant solutions are simple,
even LeftBrain ego-isolated invisible
transparently bilateral.

Make the smallest cooperative intervention necessary
and available right now
where we too competitively reside.

Avoid too much of a good Win/Lose uber-supremacist overpowering thing.

The isolated egocentric problem
is the notnot double-binding nutritional-healthy resolution,
Earth and Ego eco-resonant balance.

Recognize and break out of Either/Or LeftBrain dominant cul-de-sacs
by noticing invitations toward Both/And LeftRight reiterative boulevards.

Ecological bilateral root systems
direct and organize natural-spiritual redistributional economies
of nutritional/toxic goods/bads,
preferring cooperative saturation values
and polypathic binomial-bilateral-bicameral
ego/eco collateral nurturing design powers.

The essential ecopolitical dynamics
of both Bodhisattva and Messiah narratives
are pay cooperative love forward
for polypathic ego/eco-redemption
of Earth-noticing
as Other-understanding
Self-Regenerational Loving
as Polypathic Revolutionary Reweaving,
inviting graced karmic egos
to multiculturally cooperate
full-resonant again.

 

 

Inspired by Dale B Martin’s Biblical Truths and  David Holmgren’s “Thinking and Design Revolution” pp. 14-15,  Permaculture Principles and Pathways Beyond Sustainability.

Whether divinely inspired or not is probably best left to the eye of you, the beholder.

Grace and Pathology

I hope it would not be a parody of Michael Morrell’s political scientific position
to suggest all relationships are political
and all political relationships fall somewhere on a spectrum
between perfect co-empathic trust,
nutritionally and regeneratively favored by creolizing democracy,
and completely mutual distrust, antipathy,
a rabidly nihilistic strain
of totalitarian ballistic terrorism.

Should this spectrum amply describe tensions between democratic multiculturing trust
and plutocratically elitist monoculturing mistrust
then perhaps we can also see this spectral tension
between positive-regenerate social-psychology
and negative-degenerating entropic nihilism;
between cooperativity of Both/And empathic feeling and faith
and competing Either/Or antipathy
hardened reductively negative belief systems
with absence of good and healthy faith.

We might further stretch this same relational spectrum
to include hope and faith and love
as growing stages of healthy positive psychology,
so despair, and selfish faithlessness,
and raging sociopathic hatred
are parallel emerging stages
of pathologically negative anthropocentric
and egocentric
ecopolitics.

Within this wide egocentric Yang and eco-centric Yin spectrum
we learn and grow and develop our positive and negative psychology,
our health and our pathology,
as regenerative trends and our degenerative decompositional losses
into mutual immunity silos of autonomous self and other hatred;
historically characteristic of densely swarming over-populations,
beyond what Earth can ecosystemically hold and feed and enrich.

In this light and dark nondual co-arising view,
I read Dale B Martin’s understanding of how he can both be a person of Christian faith
and a student of religious and theological dark histories.

“It may well be that I have [positive psychology] faith
just because I was raised that way.
Having grown up in a religious [regenerative-normed] family,
itself the [bilateral-maternal and paternal] product of generations
of Christian people,
I may be psychologically inclined
or [co-empathic trust] habituated
to assume some ultimate [balancing] meaningfulness
of the [yang-yin nondual] universe
and the [healthy] centrality of [ecopolitical] faith for life
[rather than nihilistic despair].”

“Moreover,
my family
though attending a very conservative [homophobic] church,
was generally liberal and [inclusively] progressive.
We weren’t particularly bothered if others did not go to church
or went to a different church
[or adhered to a different positive faith system].”

Professor Martin is a brilliant “out” gay white Texas-reared male
now tenured at Yale.
Because of his family’s progressive co-empathic trust,
his parents quickly acclimated their love,
with a heterosexual-norm presumption,
to love for their gay son,
just another creative stretch of their inclusive and always yet-emerging
positive health psychology.

The primary difference between Dale Martin’s Texas experience
and my own rural Michigan experience,
was my absence of a liberal/progressive parental support system
restraining and creolizing the pathological hubris of elitist-supremacist
“from above” messianic grace
rather than “from deep within” co-empathically trusting grace
and karma.

With that difference,
Dale Martin’s positive Christian psychology has been continuous
throughout his still emerging family tree extension
to include the treasures of other regenerative traditions,
while my own journey has been more discontinuous and disjointed,
stressed and stretching
to ultimately arrive at peace with eco-messianic trust
in regenerative MotherEarth,
compatible with co-redemptive messianism,
in a lavishly creolizing composting transubstantiatingly inclusive way,
fractured and reset
rather than organically whole over my lifetime of Christian rediscovery,
as is the more continuously regenerative faith system
of Professor Martin’s still-emerging grace story.

A New MultiCulturing Dawn

Theoretical abstractions,
reductive hard word choices,
to describe and prescribe spiritual experiences
are unsatisfactory for daily consumption and absorption
as they reify exceptions to your Business As Usual,
which is probably LeftBrain patriarchally dominant.

Exceptional Left-Right bicameral ego/eco-consciousness,
of natureLeft-spiritRight nondual co-arising experience,
erupts from the creolizing soil
of your diurnal polypathic
ergodically liturgical
energy is information
as fake nothing-new entropy is disinformation
as regenerativity is notnot degenerativity
hum-drum cooperatively polypathic days and nights.

This implies that regenerative ethology,
exploring your eisegetical experience of nature-spirit’s nondual purposes,
within as without,
is a Left-Right
co-empirical deductive/inductive
health science.

With polycultural and multicultural outcome intent,
we invite both Left-deductive empiricism
and Right-inductive Personal Knowledge,
a tacit, more than explicit, dimension
(see also M Polanyi and D Bohm and E De Bono and J Jaynes)
as comprehensively balancing co-arising knowledge
(see also B Fuller on distinctions of ecological cooperative bilateral comprehension
as therapeutically contrasted against
merely ego-anthro-centrically deductive word-choice competitions
of EitherOr oppositions,
where BothAnd appositions
serve more synergetically WinWin healthy-well).

If we believe,
perhaps with our Buddhist nondual co-arising friends,
that the ego mind can become an empty-blank slate,
this is merely the exceptional pause to remember
the interdependent polypathic construction
of all specific knowledge,
including foreknowledge,
content and contentment,
as opposed to more LeftBrain dominant
cognitive-affective clouding dissonance.
When Earth is EmptyLeft
the Universe appears Interdependent-Cooperative inductive Right.

Other EitherOr dichotomies
therapeutically best also comprehended
as BothAnd co-arising dipolar appositions:

Erotic-natural and Agapic regenerative ecopolitical nurturing
biosystemic sensory-neural rootedness,
of fractal/developmental/dialectical-DNA and RNA, for example.

Deductive LeftBrain languaged knowledge
seeking Inductive RightBrain revelations
of ecopolitically cooperative revolutions.

Theoretical deductive-reductive abstractions of rationalism
redrawn and remembered from experiential-affective ElderRight
ecological learning
distinctions between regenerative long-term
and degenerative short-term re-acclimations
of Bateson’s Sacred Ecology,
nightmare to daydream daily cooperative adaptations,
creolizing nutritional supersessions
from enslavement to LeftBrain dominance only
to full-free multiculturing liberty
to dance with Left-Right Bodhisattva Messianic PeaceMakers.

Nature’s LeftBrain Yang-strengths
optimizing while nurturing RightBrain’s Yin-flow.

Anthrocentric competitive Yang-LeftBrain paid-out-forward messianism
and WinWin pregnant co-arising
EarthMatriarchal YinSquared-Fractal c-squared, e-squared
MultiCultural CoEnlightenment
(see B Fuller on compare/contrast of spatiated c-squared
with temporal-bilateral linear Eulerian-squared
prime metaphysical relationship).

So nature and sexuality and ecotherapeutic messianism
do all fit together
to include our humane-divine full bilateral spectrum
of homo through hetero sexuality,
with bi and transexuality somewhere in-between,
Tipping Points
to help the rest of us
heal ourselves of unseemly Yang-dominant bias,
where homo means anti-hetero
and hetero devolves into anti-homo,
and white means anti-black
and black means anti-white,
and North means anti-South
and South means anti-North,
and Western Capitalism means anti Eastern Cooperativism
and Eastern Nondual Cooperativism (Taoism-Buddhism, etc.)
means possibly also Western Creolizing EcoCapitalistic InterRelationalism.

One is naturally a man
or woman
or someone multiculturally in-between,
reminding us
there are many healthier ways to become a bicameral polypathic man,
as accessible as a therapeutic daydream
comprehending this new diurnal dawn.

 

Strongly influenced by, informed by, energized by, pp. 53-55, “Biblical Truths: The Meaning of Scripture in the Twenty-First Century, Dale B Martin, 2017. Although, if I have distorted his clear-light Christian message and multicultural intent, these faults are my own.

Christian v NotChosen

Life does not necessarily mature into timeless love,
just as yeast is not the entire evolutionary journey for bread,
and the Way may be part of, but not the entirety of,
the Beloved Community.

It is so interesting, for a nondualist at least,
that a profoundly radical Jewish teacher
would say He is the yeast
while We are the embodied bread;
He is the Way,
yet We are the Kingdoms and QueenEarth Shabbats at hand.

Then the men turn it around,
get it all dualistically, cause-effect backwards,
while the women probably knew this Messianic mentor
as bootstrapping our evolutionary fulfilling birthing process
of incoming and oncoming and ongoing cooperative co-messianism.

The patriarchs,
with theo-means not-ecological words in hand,
were too invested in their post-revolutionary need to distance themselves
from the then-powerful elitist threat of Judaic cultural power,
at least by comparison with their post-revolutionary
dualist-fundamentalist Either/Or departure
into before-Christ/after-Christ messianism-already-fulfilled
by the One
who taught himself as the intentional mentoring leaven,
and not the entire cooperative organic co-salvific loaf;
as the only Way He could speak of and for,
but not our entire EarthTribe Garden
of cooperative ecotherapeutic
co-redemptive messianism at hand.

Too bad the wives and mothers,
the nondualist gatherers and not so much the dualist hunters,
didn’t have the education,
or perhaps even the verbal communication skills,
to write down their creolizing nondualist fulfillment narratives
of cooperative nurture,
to recall and cast a nondualist Messiah
who did not come to kill YHWH’s Chosen People,
or His own culture,
the regenerative history flowing through his humane-divining
mindbody,
but to leaven with these Elders,
those who had no ecopolitical Win/Lose self-centered elitist hypocrisies
like the Pharisees and Sadduccees,
those who were not over-invested in the competitive change of Caesar’s coin
from useful for cooperative consuming health
into iconic-only value for producing disembodied hoards of wealth,
and to leaven within us
as one continuously multiculturing
multigenerational
nondualistic-BothJewish/AndChristian
organic creolizing mindbody
of regenerative intention
and vast ecopolitically radical compassion;
like yeast evolving divinely humane bread.

Genesis of Cooperative Enlightenment

Who died
and made God the Father
the Christian Natural Law Body of Cooperative Redemption?

Well, dear, that was Jesus of Nazareth,
your CoMessianic Avatar of regenerative health trends,
remember?

Right,
OK, so,
in my heroic ego-narrative,
we are the purest, most right, oldest exegetical unchanging Words of Jesus’ cooperative-organic BodySpirit ourselves,
Spiritual Avatars of God the True Father Conservationists.
My vocation,
and your true Jesus-given MindBody of Christ vocation,
is to integrate
to transubstantiate humane integrity
within Love’s cooperative WinWin potentialities,
multiculturally speaking.

We are the Body of Christ’s most fertile becoming polypathically cooperative, enspirited with co-arising trust, together,
co-redemptively within our organic-cooperative ecotherapeutic Body of Christ’s co-creative Earth regenerativity
of fertile regenetic multiculturing evolution.

Honey, is this supposed to be turning me on?
Because it’s not working.
Too many words.
No rhythm.

On and in and around this disintegrating Body of Christ Place,
we cohabit with those arrived and gone before,
and those to follow our paths toward increasing positive-organic integrity.

Is this where we finally approach climax?

Prior to our Body of Christ presence,
and still to this day,
Earth’s natural-spiritual progressions
through forested
and oceanic
and atmospheric
healthy climates,
both bio- and eco-systemic,
then, more recently, both Western encultured anthrocentric
and nonWestern encultured ecocentric,
would together (Christ’s SpiritMind and NatureBody) consecrate
transliterate
sacred ecology of our cooperatively integrating health-potential,
Love’s eco and biotherapeutic Body of Christ embers
of embryonic Creation
of CoMessiah understories,
prehistoric through now increasingly both-and
matriarchal her-storic
with His Patriarchal Body of Conserving Purity of Christ’s Original Intent.

We, Conserver Avatars of ReGenerative CoMessiahs,
regardless of class or race or gender or nation,
would not naturally or spiritually choose monopolistic purity of MindBody
over multiculturally organic-regenerating empathy,
but search instead for purest loyalty
to following wherever Christ’s co-empathic integrity
of polypathic-nurturing love
leads toward cooperative self/other regeneration
of healthy bio-eco systems.

Here, only, lies time invested embodying Christ’s Original Intent
more than merely competitively spent,
exhausted in WinLose unredemptive gamesmanship;
exhausting monoculturing climates
of overheated adolescent State-commodified Ego’s
shaded quasi-independent hypocrisy–
as if this part of Christ’s Body would better go it patriotically alone,
playing an internally cancerous
LoseLose
nihilistic
terrorizing and fear-mongering,
condemning and disingenuously pathological game.

We either live and die together as One Body of Earth’s Christ,
or we die by living too de-sacralized
desecrated
decomposing
degeneratively apart.

Purest MindBody of Christ could never become full-integrally optimized
as and with merely humane nature;
sacred EarthNature integrates all God the Father’s living systems
until disintegrating into decomposing no-growth,
former-fertile systems.

No coherent
rational
healthy Body of Christ organic system could long lack,
or survive de-valuing, co-empathically trusting integrity.
And, no system,
regardless of how loyal to its own MindBody of Christ virginal chastity of good faith,
could thereby regenerativey thwart co-emerging degenerative potential,
seeds of our own too purely autonomous
disenculturated
AntiBody of Christ degenerating destruction.

Could we have Body of Christ robust forests,
with interdependent holonic nutritional root systems,
without Earth’s therapeutic surfing oceans?
Oceans, without pure yet integral sacred atmosphere?
Holy Spirit of Christ’s HealthyWealthy Climates,
without root systemic cooperative ecopolitical nutrition-systems?

No more could we have humane MindBody of Christ integrative nature
without Earth’s Messiah-CoArising sacred ecology,
birthplace of Christ’s organic-cooperative reason.

Now you’re remembering the best part.
Let’s go for a long walk outside.
Listen to the birds and the wind,
the ocean and the trees,
watch for clouds,
look for stars and moon light.

I see.
Time to clear our Body of Christ neural-sensory palette?

Time to watch for,
and listen to,
other forms and sounds and hues and cries,
liturgies of co-redemptive worship.

Balancing Work and Play

I was reading Rev. Julian Clifford Jaynes’ homily,
delivered May of 1919
to the First Unitarian Society in West Newton, Massachusetts,
commenting on the 100 years since Channing’s Baltimore Sermon.

Rev. Jaynes had a son,
a second generation Julian Jaynes,
who was a rather well published Princeton psychologist
with an evolutionary theory of bicameral LeftBrain intelligence emerging from older RightBrain consciousness.

Earlier in the morning
I had been reading this younger secular humanist Julian Jaynes,
who was also a bicameral mental-health development John the Baptist
to what later became Positive Psychology,
prior to reading Reverend Jaynes’ 100 year perspective
on Channing’s Unitarian slap down
of a vengeful condemning Calvinist God,
condemning the grievous sins of mere mortal humans.

Mortal humans who are also bicameral human consciousness,
as teleologically and ecologically and phylogenically understood
by the younger Julian Jaynes,
only son of a Unitarian Rev,
whose father died a few years after Psychologist Jaynes was born,
and after delivering his historical summary of Unitarian bicameral evolution
toward Universalist-LeftBrain and Unitarian-RightBrain nature-spirits
nondual co-arising between 1819 and 1919.

I developed a distracting habit of writing in additional words
that the younger Jaynes might have added
to describe a dynamic nondual natural-spiritual balancing act
between Universalist Yang EgoConservatives of Traditional health values
and Unitarian Yintegrity of Earth-Regenerating nutrition.

As I began to see through the eyes of Rev. Jaynes reading his son’s theory of bicameral egoLeft-Yang and ecoRight-Yin evolution of balancing nondual co-arising consciousness,
Universal ebbing waves of triumphal unchanging YangTruth Tradition
prepared to surge back toward narrow-midway Unitarian flow
of LeftEgo with RightEco climate balance for abundantly regenerative love,
health, happiness,
economic and political balance
of YangLeft EgoCentering Universal Co-Empowerment
nondual co-arising promise
with YinRight EcoCentering Flow of Both-And
Universalists with Unitarians,
which did not become religiously updated from the Prime (0) Relational Principle of Taoism,
until a few years before Psychologist Jaynes published his treatise on
Positive pylogenic development
of Left-Right Ego-secular/Eco-sacred bicameral evolution.

This is how I added the younger Jaynes
to Reverend Jaynes
speaking about the 100 year influence of Reverend Channing:

“…What terrible things did Channing say?
He declared the supremacy of the human [ego/eco-logical healthy and wealthy trusting] reason.
He put Holy Scripture under the searchlight of rational [LeftUniversal-RightUnitarian] interpretation.
He defended the [balancing] character of God from the old imputations of cruelty, injustice, and the wrath of an irresponsible [LeftBrain EgoDominant] despot.
He broke up the mystery of the Trinity, and behold,
the [Universal] Fatherhood of one supreme [Yintegral Unitarian] oversoul,
the pleading personality of Jesus
as our human [ego/eco bodhisattva] brother and prophet,
and the Holy Spirit as the diffusive [regenerative nutritional yin] power
of divine [healthy] goodness and love.”

“Then followed what he called ‘the one sublime idea,’–
the inherent [LeftYangEgo-RightYinEco] dignity [and integrity] of human nature
and the saving power of personal [ego-conservational universe = climate health progressive eco-unitive] character,
irrespective of any artificial [supremacist Yang] mediation
of a universal [and unitarian, WinLeft-WinRight mutual] atonement [economy].”

“That is all!
How mild and familiar it sounds this morning!
How the sweet [therapeutic] reasonableness
of those [co-absorbing LeftUniversal-RightUnitarian] affirmations
condemn the [too Yangish LeftBrain Dominant historic] character
of the theology that denounced them as the [secular humanist, relativistic, rather than primal nature-spirit nondual co-relational] charter of hell.”

“From hilltops to hilltops their [ego/eco-conscious] echoes flew–until in brief time,
one hundred and twenty-five orthodox steeples rocked with their joyous clamor
of [unitarian-yin] acceptance and [universal-yang] approval.
New England was aflame.”

“…[F]or what?
For [ecologically rational] intellectual liberty,
for breaking the bonds of burdensome [static, dead] tradition,
for spiritual [YangLeft-deductive and YinRight-inductive] serenity
in the presence of every new [bilaterally appositional health/pathology] truth,
for daily [regenerative/degenerative] visions
of fresh [healthy ecological] horizons
opening out into a morally sound and beneficent
[Unitarian-integral climate of health-flow] universe.”

“We have seen one other thing–are seeing it now.
It is a [regenerative] revival among ourselves.
It is the awakened sense of [polypathic multicultural] responsibility
to the [healthy balancing natureLeft-spiritRight] faith we profess.
It is the disappearance of our former complacency [about mutual antipathy],
our cozy isolation,
our let-alone policy.
Growing in their place is the strong [Yang-UniversalEgo] desire
to make our churches,
not merely bomb-proof resorts of safety for Unitarian [Universalist] saints,
but live [inviting co-arising] centers
of [exterior-Universe/interior-Unitarian climate health] action,
with risks and hazards and challenges of [eco-centric] danger
and [ego-centric] sacrifice,–
centers where strong, earnest men [and women and everyone in-between] love to serve,
because it is a man’s job [a humaneEgo-divineEco bicameral vocation],
centers whence [Yang Universalist] definite,
aggressive,
effective influences shall go [grow] over the top,
to plant the [polypathic bicameral] standards of [health-wealth balancing] liberal religion
and to do clean-cut,
businesslike [organic nurturing nutritional] work
[and play].

Jesus Christ as Climate Savior

To my sisters,
and narrow-way brothers,
in Jesus Christ
as Supreme U.S. Savior,

I reached U.S. voting age during the 70s.
During this time,
the Religious Right
and Republican Party Center
were about the same place;
not distinguishable,
inscrutable, perhaps.

In strong conserving defense of retail-commodified AntiChrist,
yet wrapped in Fundamentally-Wrong Christian
and Way-Not-True Roman Catholic Orthodox
Never-Even-Think-About-Change-Or-Evolution as Co-Relational Tradition,
(although what on Earth do you think was on Jesus’ mind
having been brought up to be a good Jewish Orthodox boy,
with regard to the change/not-change Tradition dilemma?)
Religious Republicans described Feminists,
GLBTQ Civil Rights,
and Earth and Immigrant CommonRights Advocates,
as leaders of an increasingly powerful godless, immoral,
relativistic derailing system.

Economists and Politicians and Ecologists and Therapists
who supported ubiquitous freedom toward integrity
and freedom from dominating GodLust Exegesis of Orthodox ReGenerativity,
were leading us away from your Beacon City of Calvinistic Judgment,
supremely sitting as WinLose King of the otherwise blotted
blighted Hill;
a Hill which other Christians still more primally felt
as ecological WinWin Earth’s nurturing network nest.

Or, at least this was the way Conservative Christian consciousness was portrayed,
reflecting back on us and to us by media and academic institutions,
and sometimes heard in our homilies,
yet there is little, if any, economic support for this view
of 1970’s Religious Republicanism.

Could it be,
I wonder,
our cultural historians,
talk show pundits,
and our own clergy,
often misunderstood our Religious Right’s Republican Center
in a Holy Spirit of ecological, primal co-redemptive relationalism,
misunderstood as mere secular relativism,
more accurately exegeted as One Body of EnSpirited Christ,
both Patriarchal and Matriarchal,
both Conserving DNA-encrypted Tradition
and Nurturing Nutritional-EcoRelational Integrity,
but each primally,
originally,
embryonically virgin-wombed
within Earth’s nurturing compost
of Matriarchal-CoOperative EcoPolitics;
Mother’s Milky Sacred ReGenerative BeComing.

A U.S. history,
or any history,
of ecopolitical revolutions
is also a continuing teleological story
of religion’s embryonic through millennial phylogeny,
maturation of ecological democratic evolution.

The Christian Right reformed both Republicanism
and U.S. Christian belief systems
to fit secular enculturing beliefs,
rather than noticing the richer civil, Earth, and immigrant nurturing opportunities side
of Christ’s bicameral humane-divine Body,
speaking about how uniting the nations of both Americas
with all the integral-healthing nations of Earth
could be revolutionary change
led by true Orthodox and Beautifully Beloved Communities,
ecological,
ecosystemic,
ecopolitical Christians in solidarity with all EarthTribe Others.

Throughout the 70s,
a majority of Christian Republican women,
and a large minority of Christian Republican men,
usually did not miss opportunities to support
universal civil and Earth rights
and integrative, nurturing compassion for Sojourners
at the margins and borders of our international health as wealth economy.

This continues to this day.
Most lay leaders in our Christian churches,
black and white,
occasionally even black and white and Hispanic and Other together,
are Christian women and Other
who know in our reborn again Holy EnSpirited Hearts
that Jesus of Nazareth
was the First among CoMessianic nurturing,
ecological,
ecopolitical equals,
to carry Earth’s regeneratively compassionate love in our guts,
as Earth has given rise to Religious Right Republicans,
deep heart-learning centered,
agapic-erotic integrative,
healthy humane-divine Left-Right us,
embodied Holy Spirits,
CoMessiahs of love’s polypathy
co-mentoring nutritional wisdom
speaking ecological narrative,
after listening ecosystemic regenerative.

If we are reborn through co-empathic belief
in a shared Commons-Holy Enspirited
wombed Body of Christ,
then we are of Virgin (0)-sum ecopolitical rebirth
and, if so,
we are transgenderally originally regeneratively recreated
for optimizing ecopolitical healthy wealth abundance
of nurturing love fertility and beauty
and goodness through polypathic nutritional integrity.

One dimensional bilateral erotic biological climax time
is also four dimensional transubstantiating agapic-ecological spacetime.

Each Christian Ego had to begin somewhere, sometime.
It is our shared embryonic polypathic experience
and faith
and belief
and truth
and empathic trust
this spacetime is both Alpha Yang Erotic
and Omega Yin Agapic,
timeless West-East
Nature-Spiritual
nondual co-arising
Ego/Eco-Logical Wisdom.

At least,
so it seems within this regeneratively evolving,
but also degeneratively devolving,
bicameral conserving-integrating
Left-Right mindbody
of Christ’s Co-Empathic Climate of Trust.

Creation Story

If you have a favorite Creation Story,
one that makes your Ego self-identity swell,
and stay that way,
then you also have a favorite ecopolitical narrative
about how you would prefer your economic development
might optimize your ecological outcome abundance.

For example,
for Christians,
is the Messianic re-creation story
merely redemptive grace coming in?
Or more precisely co-redemptive,
where grace,
like money,
flows more abundantly
when everybody has more than enough gift-it-forward love to go around?

So, which evolutionary Creation Story
you politically choose to invest in
is your primally significant economic decision,
to optimize your health as wealth extending life–
WinLose self-redemption over other economic players,
or WinWin co-redemption
with other ecologically economic cooperating investors.

How was EarthTribe regeneratively formed
to ethologically function?
For me, with as much multicultural self-perpetuating freedom as possible
for all species of co-intelligent design living now,
Elders past still flowing through,
and future co-redeemers to follow.

US Negativity Worries Mom

If roses are red
then violets are blue.
If you were as dumb as me
you’d have voted for Trump too.

This election just past,
I never wanted to sin
but I’m so tired of LoseLose wars
when my climate needs Win to Win.

I needed to act
not just say what we say
a little co-operation
could re-landscape my entire day.

If hunters are red
our gatherers feel blue
’cause I was as dumb as the sea
voting for the ocean
as Earth’s TrumpDump for you.

I need to say sorry
to all who are not white male Plutocrats.
Sorry to gay and lesbian and hag,
feminist and cultural diversity
turns from riches to rags
now deemed unworthy to wave
red, white-only, and so-so blue flags.

I’m sorry for nations and nature
now stuck with us.
We’re now disuniting
when Earth needs to be health-cured
and more than our tired school bus
toward further learning how to compete unto death.

If roses are meat red
and violets are queer teen pregnant Marian blue,
I’m so so sorry
I let down angry red climate me
and our ultra-violet octave,
reweaving resonance too.

When roses are no longer me red
and violets are no longer you blue,
then we might transubstantiate,
we see better
as all flowering beauties do.

I should have known
the Party for health of business bottomless lines
would not make my health care,
or even economic security,
their bottom line;

Not health care for women and children,
all the children of the World,
red and yellow,
black and white,
they are not so precious in Trump’s sight.

I knew when I did it
my Jesus loving Mom never would have.
Republican by Christian Evangelical birth-rite,
she would not have voted for health care
of Publican and Pharisee bottom lines,
especially those insuring and financing further investments
in war-profiteering military-industrial-agribusiness complexly self-interested deposits,
which she defined as rackets and mayhem,
when she could find any other choice for her vote
more friendly to health care and security
of Jesus’ multiculturing kids.

If roses are red
and violets are blue
I would have listened to Mom’s Jesus Spirit,
instead of Dad’s Red-Paranoid 1950’s Terror and DiSpirit
regarding 1960’s LoseLose multiculturing condemnations
of Plutocratic White Gods of War
and sexual exploitation,
homophobia and fake, ecopolitically sold-out, Christianity
while Gaia was, and remains, clearly on the side of optimal health
and security
of women and children of all species,
and other polypathic ecological nutrition-lovers
of healthy kids,
red and yellow,
black and white,
roses and violets in Her sight.

If roses were red blue
and violets were blue red
how much easier it could be
to see inside each cooperatively intended head.

Bateson and Taoism: A Cordial Conversation

Bateson:
Pathology is a relatively easy thing to discuss,
health is very difficult.

Laotse:
Pathology is a functional issue for discernment,
organic health is difficult to miss
unless you have switched our cooperative evolution
for your personal competitive revolution.

Bateson:
…the sacred is difficult to talk about,
because the sacred is peculiarly related to the healthy.

Laotse:
Sacrilege of mere secular profanity is difficult to miss
because sacred ecology unfolds abundant healthy organic ecopolitical systems.

Bateson, on the history of Western religious culture:
The proposition for which they were burning each other was,
on one hand, ‘the bread is the body,’
and on the other, ‘the bread stands for the body.’
…this whole argument is one of fundamental importance
when related to the whole of the nature of the sacred
and to human nature….
the richest use of the word ‘sacred’
is that use which will say that what matters
is the combination of the two,
getting the two together.

Laotse:
When is yeasty bread and wine
notnot yet a diastatic body?

Bateson:
Because it doesn’t make any prose sense,
the material of dream and poetry has to be more
or less
secret from the prose part of the mind.
It’s this secrecy,
this obscuration,
that the Protestant thinks is wrong,
and a psychoanalyst,
I suppose,
wouldn’t approve of either.
But that secrecy, you see,
is a protecting of parts of the whole process or mechanism,
to see that the parts don’t neutralize each other.
Laotse with Jaynes:
Because it doesn’t make any LeftBrain languaged sense,
the inductive material of dream and poetry and sacred ecology
is also reverse double-bind decomposing nutritional effects with causes,
a protecting of too-reductive parts of our whole organic polypathic process
to see that all parts must (0)soul compatibly neutralize each other.

Bateson:
What are you going to do about the use of the sacred?
There is a very strong tendency in occidental cultures,
and increasingly in oriental cultures,
to misuse the sacred.
You see,
you’ve got something nice,
central to your civilization,
which bonds together all sorts of values connected with love,
hate,
pain,
joy, and the rest,
a fantastic bridging synthesis,
a way to make life make a certain sort of sense.
And the next thing is that people use that sacred bridge
in order to sell things….
We can be influenced, it seems,
by any confidence trickster,
who by his appeals
makes cheap that which should not be made cheap.

Laotse:
How are you going to invest in/divest of this sacred ecology?
We have beauty and ugly,
kind and notnot kind,
in civilization as on Earth,
bonding together all values with their disvalues,
our empathic trusts with our ecopolitical distrusts and immunities.
This co-arising nonduality of positive and double-binding negative notnot
folds and unfolds a fantastic sacred bridge of synthesis toward sense,
with dissonance toward nonsense.
Those who would reduce sacred Earth Rights
to what can be merely bought and sold,
cheapen that which could become even more densely rich.

Bateson:
…while it may be fairly easy to recognize moments
at which everything goes wrong,
it is a great deal more difficult
to recognize the magic of the moments that come right;
and to contrive those moments
is always more or less impossible….
to make human relations prosper is exceedingly difficult.

Laotse:
Recognizing moments at which everything goes wrong
as tipping points,
time to upgrade risks of anger management
into opportunities of and for more expansive love development,
to consistently
predictably
normatively
climatically invite faithfulness toward co-empathic trust.

Bateson:
We are arrogant about what we might know tomorrow,
but humble because we know so little today.

Laotse:
We are Yang-overflowing about what we may know of integrity’s potential tomorrow,
co-arising with ego’s humility to notnot balance
YinYin
WinWin
today.
