LeftBrains with RightHearts

LeftBrain ego challenges
are also investments
in cooperatively struggling with RightBrain understream flow,
understories of recreative grace,
positively trending karma,
or against, trying to swim directly upstream,
competing with RightBrain’s laterally co-arising flow skills of integration.

Our moment by ego/ecoconscious moment choices
are in where and how and why
to LeftBrain invest in positive challenge
and/or divest of cognitive negative problems.

While this either-or competition
is actually also both-and cooperation
when we are at our Left-Right best,
most maturely skilled in deep ecological learning,
we lean more heavily into both-and challenges
with RightBrain integrative polypathic multicultural comprehension,
co-empathic co-arising Left/Right mutual-subsidiarity trust,
and more lightly on either-or mistrust problems
with LeftBrain ego and anthrocentrist ignorance
of RightBrain’s timeless understory
of nutritional co-gravitating integrity.

Minds, brains, hearts, lungs, hands, feet
are embodied,
part of an organically healthy,
and sometimes more unhelpfully pathological,
ecopolitical biosystem.

So LeftBrain deductive reasoning,
logical rationality,
is also RightBrain embodied ecological,
phylogenically emerging within holistic matriotic nurturing,
growing out from Ego/Self:Eco/Other co-embodied composting wombs
co-arising nondual polypathic power-with empathy.

Following Julian Jaynes’ ethological theory of bicameral emergence,
and phylogenic historic-memetic evolutionary evidence,
LeftBrain’s polynomially languaged rationality
is primally embedded in RightBrain unlanguaged unconscious
notnot Tipping Point ecological-moral integrity development,
discernment toward multicultural integrity as climate health norms,
ego-values rooted in ecological thermodynamics of living systems.

LeftBrain egocentrism
merges with RightBrain eco-consciousness
as we mature
by extending our empathic skills
discerning ecological health
cooperatively, co-redemptively, co-mentoringly, democratically
by divesting of unhelpful self-and-other condeming pathologies,
an unwillingness to mentor co-empathic “both-and” acclimation;
especially when we feel surrounded by a mistrusting “either-or” competitive, and not quite so healthily democratic,
mutually-condemning,
sometimes paranoid and terrifying,
ego-supremacist environment.

After all,
what else could divine with human natural transubstantiation be,
other than this ecological polypathic stretch
of our multicultural WinWin Golden Rule?

Left to Right and back again,
reiterative enthymematic revolutions
of Left-Explicate and Right-NotNotImplicating-integrating
co-arising polypathic communications of climate health
and notnot dissonant demonic noise?

GoFlow On Our Mountain

Once upon an eternal sacred time of Earth’s Golden Age,
Yin knew her body as a divinely virginal forested place
given equally to all for and of Earth’s holy

She, without language,
but with marvelously holonic ecological symmetry
and sensory proportion,
recreated organic ecosystems,
bilateral branch/root trees of nutritionally reversed hierarchies
with mutually subsidiary memory,
digesting compost icons of Earth’s Yang spaciated,

which may be too often his suboptimal flow of quasi-graced state,
yet Yin’s RightBrained autonomic DNA-memetic

Radical Conservative Revolutions

Radical conservatives are cooperatively embracing a culture war.
Our battlefield is our ecologically evolving brain.

At stake is what Earth and Earth’s hosted tribes become.
Our cooperative vocation is to radically co-arise nondual human development
to fit conservationist moral integrity.
Our threat is anemically anthrocentric democracy
and all that does not yet flow positive grace/karma through multiculturing integrity;
not just in NorthWestern cultures,
but wherever LeftBrain dominant influence extends
to RightBrain decomposing repression of deep ecological learning.

LeftBrain WinWin values are fundamentally positive-progressive,
centered on equality,
human as ClimateHealth rights,
economic and social responsibility,
and cooperative inclusion of all species
within our reweaving Golden Rule of Earth’s Conservation Rights.

Yet DNA/RNA co-arising permacultural progressives have,
without knowing why,
given DNA-anthrocentrically dominant conservatives an unwitting advantage
in our eco-cultural struggle toward inclusive peace.
Fundamentalist LeftBrain WinLose survivalists,
still wearing evaporating rags of legitimized conservative labels,
continue to hunt and gather
patriarchal authoritarian hierararchies
rooted in vast fear/anger concentrations
and monopolistic control of capital as the sole measure of wealth,
the commodification of health’s potential integrity ourselves;
unbalancing disorder rooted in fear,
bullying and intimidation,
obedience to condemning paranoia;
control of elections and administrations and legislation through control of who votes and who doesn’t bother to cooperatively invest
in our shared future;
and patriarchal family values projected upon religion, politics, and the market,
at the expense of ecopolitical matriarchal nurturing-co-empathic integrative values.

The future of Earth’s climate of democracy is at stake, now.

Social evolution is ecopolitically material–
who competitively/cooperatively controls what forms of wealth–
institutionally ecosystemic–
who runs what nutritionally multicultural/toxically monocultural powers to invest and divest of and for multi-generational regenerativity,
and political competitions within a larger cooperative WinWin network.
But the main front of our climate health culture struggle
is the Left/Right co-arising nondual mindbody,
especially how the bicameral brain functions
below the ego-conscious level of eco-consciousness.

Progressives no longer accept as sufficient
the pre-millennial view of LeftBrain dominant reason,
rooted in evolution as either-or competitions for survival,
dating back through the revolutions of struggling history ourselves,
that reason can be, but is not necessarily, ego-conscious,
both literal and analogical,
both logical and ecological,
both universal and unitarian,
both unemotional and co-arising empathic feelings,
disembodied as decompositional
but primally
regeneratively
ecologically
organically
phylogenically systemic,
serving both egoLeft and ecoRight cooperative conservation interests.

As cognitive and brain sciences unveil,
this is no longer a distorted LeftBrain dominant view of reductive reason.
This may sound like a merely academic issue,
but this assumption about the ecological nature of logical co-empathic
phylogenic comprehension of ego/eco balancing consciousness
has stood in the way of an effective progressive/conservative co-defense
and advancement of polypathic democracy.
Multicultural progressives pre-millennially ceded
the eco-political balanced mind
to fundamental reductivist traditional icons of wealth,
no longer rooted in Earth’s integrity of health.

Our ecopolitically dominant LeftBrain mind
dynamically uncovers RightBrain’s unconscious-unlanguaged modes of politically cooperative thought,
and how these are co-arisingly nondual-linked.

We are each and all climate health experts,
conservatives of cooperative ecopolitical cultures.
As we develop our cognitive sciences,
we are changing our polypathic comprehension of ecosystemic technical fields
like economics,
international climate health relations,
regenerative v degenerative evolution,
and LeftBrain dominant linguistics,
and why these LeftRight balancing changes matter
for Earth’s future ecological politics.

Cooperative Capital Investment

If you want to not only defend and secure your mental health and happiness,
but also optimize their positive capital flow-power;

If you can find sufficient motivation for one change,
and only one nature/spirit change,
then continue to assume your Right hand dominant mind
is might makes capital-invested ego-happiness right,
BUT/AND
work on equivalently presuming Left hand Yintegral sacred ecosystemic mind
is also right flows eco-healthy co-mentoring opportunities
for growing cooperatively incarnating abundance of healthy(R)happy-wealth(L).

These two, appositionally united,
rather than merely dissonant, chaotic, mis-communicating
between LeftBrain ego-dominant economic survivalism
and RightBrain eco-recessive politically organic regenerative health,
recreate embryonically-nurtured ego-force of eco-flow,
Yang/Yin ego-form of Earth-ecological-function,
POWER with CoEMPOWERING FLOW OPTIMIZATION
mindbody forms with ecopolitically strong healthy functions,
LeftEgo/Right-DNA/RNA Solidarity
human-divine
nature-spirit
balancing biosystems
of past and for future timelessly self/other optimizing cooperative
healthy(R)wealth(L).

On the other hand,
if conserving and defending your own regenerative health abundance
is of no interest,
then, never mind.
Keep on with the LeftBrain Business as Competitively Usual.
Just know that you are irrationally choosing to continue playing your economics and politics and mental health
using a pre-millennial WinLose misunderstood model of evolution
when you have available
a post-millennial WinWin ego/ecoconscious model
for continuing to defend and secure polypathic revolutions.

No pressure.
Your decision.
But you will never feel you have honestly,
with total investment integrity, decided one way or the other
until you choose WinLeftEgo/WinRight EcoPolitical CoOperative-Flow Balance.

Ground of Becoming

Aristotle thought happiness is the foundation of existence.
Since then, others have worried that maybe survival is closer
to their own more suffering experience.

I don’t exactly disagree with Aristotle,
or with those on the more suffering side of our species.
But, where these two come together, in my experience,
is within the context of health v pathology.

To me, happiness is the Yang-face of health’s Yin-face,
so it is these two together co-arising the foundation
of ego’s regenerative existence,
and degenerative subclimate pathologies.

In learning happy health,
life lived ever more fully,
gracefully,
positive karmically,
as in gaming,
the stress of stretching one’s offensive capacities
is reduced by the belief that we have a perfect defense.
We know there are no WinLose strategic players;
only WinWin intent.
Because we know through co-empathic experience
and the evidence of Earth’s evolution,
that WinWin always optimizes happy-health,
while WinLose suboptimizes
opportunities for developing further co-empathic learning capacities.

So too,
defensive concerns soften and languish
by constant feedback that we have a flawless happy-health offensive strategy for further WinWin learning.

In the real world
there is no more a perfectly conservative defense
against unhealthy suffering
than there is a perfectly evolving offense toward happy health.

In learning healthier living,
cognitive-affective dissonance is our defense against polypathic co-empathy,
our oppositional resistance.

Empathic happy-health psychology,
a deep awareness of our ecopolitical equivalence,
empowers Basic Attendance (0)-sum balance,
our regenerative offensive-centered listening position
for learning effectively,
balancing nurture with challenge,
by noticing our own cognitive-affective defenses,
without which we would have no radical sense of autonomous identity,
no monoculturing monotheistic monochromatic severed ego.

So too, without our primal co-empathic relationship
with our mentoring environment,
we could have no interdependent. ecological happy-health identities.

And yet,
our ego-patriotic conserving defense of happiness
remains a secondary form
in relation to our RightBrain matriotic nurturance function
of a healthy regenerative climate,
learning atmosphere,
ecological integrity of ego-resilient polypaths.

LeftBrain Aristotle thought happiness is the foundation of existence,
because his RightBrain noticed health as his ground of becoming.

Earth’s Messiah Vocation

George Lakoff, in The Political Mind (2008),
speaks to permacultural tension within democratic governance;
between conservative competitions for sufficiently orthodox authority
and progressive movements for more cooperatively integrative empathy.

This purpose of mind,
or human consciousness,
is to evolve further humane integrity of Earth’s-consciousness;
to become more ecologically informed
about climate pathologies,
internal and external,
even global;
to draw together LeftBrain’s authoritative conserving of deductions
with RightBrain’s progressive co-empathic trust in Earth,
in our polypathic need for each multicultural Other,
even for something as politically basic
as having,
articulating,
growing,
refining a well-integrated
and conservatively-responsible
sense of ego-identity.

We have no politically authoritative YangEgo
if there is not first an economically progressive
gift-it-forward
co-empathic Yintegral
Eco-Earth
with nutritionally health-balancing ecopolitical thermodynamics.

Conserving the health of Earth and of AnthroEgos
is our nondual authoritative LeftYang
and co-empathic RightYin
co-arising Climate Health vocation,
as a species,
as members, inheritors and progenitors,
of extended DNA/RNA Solidarity families,
as individual polypathic ego/eco-conscious self-regenerative identities,
avatars of sacred co-intelligent Left/Right PermaCultural Design.

While I try to err on the side of staying positive,
or don’t publish,
I want to veer in that other negative-oppositional direction,
but out of a “here’s what has been helpful for me” place of solidarity,
and not that other conservative-condemning voice of
“you folks have serious climate issues.”

In dealing with my daughter’s Oppositional Defiant Disorder
I have come to see and hear ODD as an indiscriminate form of bullying.
Bullying is normally reserved for strategic targets,
but ODD is a more chronic and democratically inclusive form,
often rooted in early experiences of feeling nutrition-deprived of nurturing.
Regardless, for me,
ODD has become bullying on chronically paranoid steroids,
anger about, and fear of, everybody,
Earth,
life,
touch,
sights and sounds,
the word “no.”

In this sense, ODD and bullying are forms of Climate Healing Denial.
And, that is how I hear national U.S. political and economic leaders
who deny the overwhelming multicultural evidence
that climate change is a climate pathological trend,
which our most conservative spiritual and religious
and moral
and atheistic
and any form of belief in system development at all
agree moves us in the opposite, degenerative, trend
of nature-spirit’s nondual regenerative healing needs
right now.

Not in ten minutes,
when ego is more distracted,
but right now,
and in 10 minutes,
and 10 days,
and 10 months,
and 10 years,
and 100 years.

When our Ego’s go off into a paranoid ODD,
despairing of Climate Health Progress,
inside or outside or usually both,
it’s time to reframe our deep ecology education
about our polypathic healing vocation
through balancing our LeftEgo and RightEco consciousnesses;
psychologically, sure.
But, also Conservative/Progressive
Nature/Spirit
EarthHealth ecopolitically;
nondual,
co-arising.

Neither natural ecosystems
nor sacred spiritual faith experiences
can continue evolving in a healthy regenerative directions
during a crisis of struggling-against despair dissonance
toward chronically monoculturing paranoid climate pathologies
of abjectly nihilistic despair;
chaotic entropic outcomes.

Both Earth’s environment (eco)
and self spiritual identity (ego)
assume and require basic Climate Health
toward regenerative integrity, complexity, to continue evolving together.

As we have orthodoxically and DNA/RNA authoritatively received,
so can we co-invite each other to empathically, and integratively
and polypathically,
and multiculturally,
and ego/eco-consciously
give future healthy-wealthy regenerators
of all Earth’s Conserving-Yang/Progressing-Yintegrating Synergetic Tribes.

Thought Experiments

It is interesting to consider a national economy,
and a personal economy,
as iconic of our ionic political empowerment,
and competitively anti-ionic disempowerment;
so economic marginalization
becomes an icon for political victimization
and political opportunity for future WinWin healing.

This way of seeing an iconic/ionic primal relationship
within eco-politics
might support an evolutionary historical view,
which, if reversed in time,
might take us back to an imaginary moment
in each of our LeftBrain developments,
when nutritional wealth was an iconic referent
to a health-empowering referee,
organic-ionic cooperativity
as political integrity-flow of multiculturality.

While I’m not sure exactly how all this cooperative iconic economics of political health investment balances out,
my gut tells me
if you make a common economic mistake
of valuing one life (especially one’s own) differently than another,
for example
the U.S. historical investments in Native Americans and African slaves
as compared to White slave-owners and other farmers,
investment in white men as compared to women of any color,
then we have effectively de-valued all of humanity’s overall cooperative-integrative health potential.

We fall from history’s cooperatively-intended syncretic grace;
incarnate bad chi.

When what is economic wealth-valued LeftBrain
becomes what is also politically/personally health-valued RightBrain integrity,
then we achieve MidWay ecopolitical abundance of flow,
grace,
chi.

Cooperative Business of Miracles

Cooperative economic and political flow,
common to all regenerative ecosystems,
is largely non-historic Business As HealthyUsual,
while news-worthy events too often reincarnate
competing images of overpowering violent capitalism,
raised up through militarism and racism and sexism,
climate pathologies of run-away ego-centrism,
degenerating further paranoid entropic trends
of closed off claustrophobic climates,
deteriorating landscapes,
bioregions,
choking identities,
rabid organisms,
devoid of sufficient soul,
chi,
heart,
love,
grace,
karma,
synergy,
integrity,
incarnation,
life…

Cooperative ecopolitical organic flow networks,
self-regenerating systems,
are largely DNA/RNA encrypted
Business as Miraculously Usual.

Santa’s Unseemly Parade

Santa arrived on our street yesterday
spewing considerable exhaust
while riding atop a parade of firetrucks and vans,
floodlit like a nativity display at night,
full sirens and blaring Christmas carols
competing for my Fetal Alcohol daughter’s rapt attention.

Santa rolls at stately parade pace,
while ever more impatiently
my troubled daughter jumps and eagerly awaits to pounce.

For me,
much too soon
Santa spots her leaning out our screen door,
disembarks with great royal dignitary pace
to walk the long quest for prey
on our front porch.

As I feared,
after an unconvincing HoHoHo?,
without waiting for introductions,
Santa goes straight to his task at hand:
What do you want for Christmas, little girl?

I don’t know
Haven’t thought about it.
I’m sure it’s not a stinky and loud Santa parade.
Anyway, I’m still working on what I’m giving for Christmas.

That’s awesome.
I don’t hear a lot of that.

It’s not awesome!
It’s complicated!
My dad said I should only give gifts that by giving them
I will also receive more gifts.

I’m not sure I have any gifts like that.
Last year you asked for an American Girl doll.

Yes, but this year I’m working on giving American Princess me,
instead of settling for your plastic dolls.

Won’t you need costuming and make-up
to become the All American princess?

You would think so,
but my dad says they don’t meet his gift-it-forward
to receive back rule.

So what do you think you’re going to get,
or give,
or both, I guess?
although Santa’s feeling confused about co-redemptive gifts,
and I do still have far to go.

And you left your truck idling.
I’m leaning toward kindness,
’cause princesses are always kind,
but my dad is asking for greater wisdom,
which is something he actually does need.
And I know you don’t have any to offer
or you wouldn’t begin and end Christmas
by asking people what they want,
instead of asking us what we have to give
that might make life feel a little less snarky
come New Year’s Day.

Santa returned to his royal firetruck
somewhat faster than he had arrived
on my wise American princess daughter’s front porch.

Advent of Discernment

What would I harvest
as the moon rises
to conclude this day?

Will I hunt for the life still burning in the eyes of each person,
each living creation, I meet,
each work and play in progress process;
or divest by looking away?

Will I gather up more healthy cooperative listening
or divest of wisdom’s helping opportunity
through more self-condemning, pathologically comparative,
competitive, falling short of utopian-speaking?
Reminding myself and others
of how fragile is this ego-center,
born of birthing fears
and dying, divesting, angers.

Will I celebrate with economic and politically nurturing climates
and healthy landscapes
resolving and dissolving together outside,
where winds of fresher air may still blow
and fragrances speak of both Earth’s pristine self-governing organics
and of my, our, anthrocentric hubris?
Reminding me to be aware,
the more significant history of furture regenerational health
plays together out here,
and not inside my smaller egocentered,
household-defensive, nest
of more domesticated creation stories.

At the end of this day,
will I have invested in seeing and hearing and smelling and tasting
and feeling and thinking about our rich and deep cooperative potential
for further healthy integrity of life;
or will I have continued stuck
in looking some other depressing suppressing repressing direction?

Co-redemptive discernment,
Advent of another day,
another year,
a renewing life,
hunting and gathering light through others’ eyes,
sounds of happiness surrounding despair,
tastes of climate health
attenuated by more dissonant pathologies,
waiting, waiting
with us for this Advent healing.

Before this winter moon sets
have I harvested only a litany
of beaten down
by my condemning White
supremely patriotic
vengeful
MonoCulturing God,
struggling against my sad historic decomposition?

Yet this same truth appears much more rich
by simply, more humbly, remembering
this same Paternal God’s
maternally organic rich-Black EarthGoddess face,
for these two, Yang and Yin,
are each a co-arising nondual Janus-place
of tipping toward our richest Winter Solstice harvest.

My Advent of therapeutic purpose
is not so much to improve my skills
at predicting next year’s most important historic failures and challenges,
although that would not be a bad thing in itself,
yet even more so,
within this larger healthy Yintegrating flow,
I continue inviting EarthTribe’s daily cooperative miracles
of still-regenerating EarthRights,
inclusive of Adventurous Ego’s most abundant integrative flow.

What have I harvested
for the Advent of a healthier, and happier, tomorrow?
