EnLightening ReLigions

Religiosity is the culture-bound pretension
of religious relational function.

Religious is to spiritually healthy function
as religion
creed
faith system, idolatrous or divine,
is to spiritual form,
structure,
ecosystemic or pathologically other-unwise.

Spirit is to natural health functions,
mental and physical and sacred,
as nature
ecology
active positive hope systems
are to natural form,
polypathic structures,
polyphonic themes of Wisdom Literature,
EcoLogos Paradigms of Health,
Sacred Ecology

Timely Universes

The Universe is the only self-referential reality
in the phenomenal world.
It is the only text
without context.
Thomas Berry

And yet
could no the same
be said of time
as text
without spatial context?

And could this universality of time as text
also become our co-gravitating unity
through co-arising diversity
of spaciating polypathic context?

Octavia Butler
defined God
as Change.

Time changes
or is eternally timeless;
a dead vacuous universal text
swelling and contracting
changes within timeless time
through eternally imaginable context.

If this Universe is God’s text
without further context,
then this co-emerging race through time’s distinctions
prefacing Earth’s voiceless extinctions
proves time’s full infinite eternity
contextualizes nothing more or less complete
than timeless here
as now,

Remembering time’s near completion
without date
or finite ego-measurement;
lacking too-reductive calculations,
deductive text within-
without inductive sacred context
for God’s Left and Right
YangForm through YinFunction

Universe as Sacred Change

When Time Went Live

Neurology asks
How does our bicameral brain
and bilateral neural-system work,
both positive and negative?

Meanwhile, form greets function.
Psychology asks
What can minds with bodies tell us
about who we were,
who we are,
and those whom we might become,
and prefer not to become?
Because to do so would be even more pathological;
negative psychology
is pathological psychology.

But,
both neurology and psychology
assume this same radically fundamental spectrum
of regenerative health
through degenerative pathology
of physical and metaphysical climates
for landscapes
internal and external,
positively cooperative
on through too competitively dissonant.

Ultimately,
neurological psychology
reweaves how our healthy ego-systems work
sometimes optimally,
too often minimally,
toward whom and what
and when and where
and even why
we would most regeneratively become
together.

On time saw live, sacred;
no emit was evil, desecration;
neurologically anti-healthy negative psychology.

Death of Dreams

Our children must not die
before their parents
or parental dreams die with them.

And, for those without children,
this is easily empathized
because our dreams must not die
before we do.

Without them
our best selves have already left
whatever misery and boredom remains
for further degenerating absence of purpose.

As our own remaining children
step into young adulthood
wise parents often continue listening
for their dreams.

In this way,
as our own immortal dreams and fantasies fade,
younger dreams become our own extending future.

Here,
in the imperative parental vocation
of restoring therapeutic justice
and peace to dream love’s future,
is where I hear resounding
Millennial Generation Silence

Absence of healthy economic and political dreams
for healing over-heated competing climates
and landscapes.

Restoring inclusive predator and prey recycling justice
and healthy pre-recycling parenting
and dreams of timeless youth
all begin with loving to know Why?

If you have parented a healthy verbal two year old,
you may remember
these challenges of Why
and concomitant insufficiencies of time
to sufficiently reply
Why not?

Why do we dream in language
and icons of mythic sacred relationship?

Why do I dream
of a revolving Fallen Eden
evolving restorative forest-garden relationships,
sacred and secular Paradise Dreams
revisited
revised
rewinding
reweaving Millennial ReGeneration Dreams?

Healthy ecopolitical futures
still Yang with Yin eating from fruit trees
of Sacred Loving Dreams
and Secularized NonDual DarkDeath
we cooperatively own and appositionally manage
root systemically together

ReStorative Yang EdenSpace
with ReDistributive Flowing YinNurture Time–
spiraling bilateral timeless Mythic EcoLogosed Times
of and for PostMillennial Therapeutic Dreams
asking how and when
and cooperating where already
and why not?

A healthy parent
must not lose sacred-secular Dreams
or we all die dreamless forever,
retributing further anger
and fearing frustrating injustice
language and icons of unweaving Earth
fallen eternally to burn
for asking God WhyNot?

PolyBoxes of Tradition

I faced alarming paradoxes
as I headed toward puberty.

First,
my King James Bible-belting parents,
extended family,
and all-hopelessly-WHITE farm community
taught me

God loves me
and all the children,
red and yellow,
and black almost as much as white.

That felt good
but then I learned God hates me
because I became queerly obsessed
with hot guys,
and not hot girls.
So, God created me
so He could hate me.
That seemed like poor planning to me,
and I was still in fifth grade.

Then I learned that God had given me two extraordinary gifts:
Possibly unmeasurable intelligence,
and so,
my grade-school principal warned
my evangelical farmer parents,
we were not to be surprised
if I was and saw this Earth
in a somewhat different way.

My second gift
was the envy of all good Bible-belted teenagers.
I could sing with the angels.

So,
the God of Infinite Love
is my Creator
and I am His Frankenstein Queer
with a mind and singing voice to soar,
full of Grace.

You and I might both be surprised
how long it took to figure out
Something is very wrong with this picture,
and I don’t think it is just me.
It was merely everyone else I knew and trusted
in that Bible-belted time.

So I sang for them in full voice
but gave as little voice to my sexuality as possible.
I wrote papers and test responses
in full A+ voice
but told no one
I knew they were asking wrong questions
for me to answer with full-versed integrity,

Free to sing with David and Jonathon
free of magic superstitions
standing in for mythic polypathic wisdom
of Solomon

Not to divide innocent organic Promise
God has conjoined as Love
of and for children,
red and yellow,
black and white,
gay and lesbian,
bisexual and transgender

And, yes, even straight-faced
Bible-belting out Hate
and Supremacist Evangelical Christian Colonizing InBred Correctness,
while continuing to give birth
to hidden,
shamed and blamed queer Grace
of a Loving God
polypathically immense,
deep and wide,
future through past
regeneratively just
and peaceful
and wickedly funny

Because if we cannot laugh at our egocentric stupidities,
then we must cry out for cosmic tragedy.

Octaves for Belonging

I studied liturgical theology in seminary.
Even so, I was struck by the simplicity
of Robin Wall Kimmerer’s First Nation observation,
“Ceremony
is a vehicle
for belonging–
to a family,
to a people,
and to a land.”

But,
what is necessary difference,
if any,
between ceremony and life,
between liturgy and loving words
and actions,
between medicine
and healing therapy?

Language
is a vehicle
for RightBrain sacred personal meaning
and LeftBrain exegetical purpose–
for co-arising ethology of Earth’s sacred creation
and ecology of evolving and revolving,
spiraling lands and oceans
speaking in plant through harvest voices,
then Advent silence in-between
this great secular-sacred nutritional cycle
and divide.

Language of four-dimensional RealTime Seasons
with sacred and secular co-arising dynamic Reasons,
cooperative purpose
for gift economies

Flowing back toward (0)Soul Prime Relational meaning
for bilateral revolutions
of exterior Yang winds
covering interior Yin co-bilateral evolutions
of Earth’s Sacred Baptismal Waters

Water minds
flowing
winding bodies.

Elder Sacred Right
speaks through ceremonies
of cooperative light,
ethology of Western Grace
and Eastern Karma,
co-arising Sacred Ecology
of polypathic love,
surpassing any creed,
language,
ceremony

Both (0)Sum Prime Relational Source
but also divinely sacred expanding love,
more perfectly cooperative Unions,
radical ecopolitical Welfare
of a species
within Earth’s Great BiCameral Tribes

Speaking sacred Right meaning
and secular Left purpose
of restoring co-redemptive global vocations,
ego- with eco-therapies,
meditative medications,
bilateral secular-sacred co-intelligent consciousness.

Some of this
goes a bit deeper and yet wider
than what I love most
about Ecological Liturgy Studies.
So,
consider our (0)Soul BiCameral Source,
breathing Yang meaning and purpose in and up,
exhaling Yin ceremony and therapy out and down

Left 4dimensional SpaceTime Special Case,
Right Sacred PolyPathic OtherWise.

 

Kimmerer quote from “Braiding Sweetgrass” p. 37.

Scales of Omnipotence

We might discern diverse scales
for describing omnipotence
of CreatorGod
in the Bible,
as elsewhere.

Genesis begins with Earth’s wind and water,
and is about CreatorGod of Earth as Eden
with Her divine lights and clouded winds
coming down from sacred Heavens,
where God dwells
when not choosing to incarnate
in anthrocentric forms
and functions,
icons and language
of motion
and, eventually,
LeftBrain development
of sacred story-telling language.

The Gospel of John
begins with a Universal Articulating God,
manifesting LeftBrain sacred Word
for relationships
between sacred-secular differences,
contrasts and comparisons,
bipolar oppositions and dipolar appositions.

Words are created by
distinctions within a Universal System
created by sacred GodSpeak,
primal distinctions of YangSpace
within bilateral flowing YinTime.

The AbbaFather God of Jesus Christ
is a nondualistic God of Earth and Her Heavens,
Her visible to the naked anthrocentric eye Milky Way
SolarEnergized EcoSystem,
as sensory accessed by humanizing sacred nature,
whose traditional Jewish economy of law and order
was redemption by blood retribution ceremonies
and by water ritual restorative cleansings
of grace.

Blood sacrifices were about
a God of ReTributive Justice,
Natural Law and Order.

Water cleansings,
baptisms,
are about a God of Restorative Justice and Peace,
about a gift economy of mutual grace
and love ever growing more powerful
than PreAbba God
of Traditional Judaic ritual,
self-sacrificial liturgies
of continuing enslavement to YHWH
of vengeful winds
and a Fallen weedish PostEden,
in monoculturing decline of climates and landscapes.

But,
we will find only one Biblical and Koran articulation of idolatry.
What is substituted
for all these faces of God
as Creative-ReGenerative Love,
as taught by false prophets
and practiced by modern day capital-driven Pharisees
of evangelical ethnocentric jihad,
just war theories,
Crusades against the AntiChrist
which are actually crusades of and for AntiChristian competitions,
monoculturing colonizations
rather than polyculturing creolizations,
which was the Jewish Messiah’s world-redemptive intent,
to reform,
to restore,
to re-baptize into global civilizations of sacred cooperativity.

Fundamentalists,
Christian and Islamic,
would re-reduce restorative Grace
back to their own ethnocentric narrow-minded boxes
for retributive vengeance,
against losing Losers,
the not-so-ChosenPeople
also worshiping at idol altars
for continuing military-industrialized violence,
competitions rooted way back in sexism,
racism
competitive anti-ecological absence of restorative grace,
discarded meditative medications,
for growing healthy cultures
of polypathic gratitude.

Uphill Roads Less Traveled

We have all heard about diverse roads
and rivers,
currents and currencies,
investments and co-investments less traveled,
worn,
tried.

The law and order rules of the road
and downstream river most rowed
are politically and economically empowered
of, by, and for punishing disorder,
dissonance,
uncivilized behaviors,
sociopathic paranoia and madness.

Yet the Golden Rules of upstream ecological sacred grace
speak of divine gift economies
and power of mutual cooperativity
along a Golden Ratio Equivalency PolyPath
of mutual cooperativity.

On this road less notnot traveled
we notice investments and disinvestments that can no longer fit
within individual ego-sized positive containers,
intended to be used only one time,
and then quietly disposed of
under our own independent authority
and responsibilities for restoring our accountable co-presence
back toward this upstream river’s timeless Source:

grace, and racism and religious-monoculturing supremacy,
anthrocentric health assurance, and prejudicial sexisms,
salvation of the World, and condemning judgment of Earth,
reward, and punishment,
pride, and yet also prejudice,
restoration, and retribution
love, and hate-marketing,
peace, but also war-mongering,
gratitude, but also bad attitude.

So I try to notice which way I am heading,
and remember no one chooses a unidirectional,
monocultural path
not first and frequently made by others,
whether Business As Usual,
or that Other Sacred UpStream One,
for those born as gifts
to carry our gifts forward
along this narrow double-binding polypath.

Yang Stresses Out

Yang dear,
could you please give us a brief LeftBrain summary
of relationships you find between
the language of Zero-Sum Sacred Ecology
and the double-bind information
PolyPathic = Not(NotPolyCultural)?

Sure,
just imagine your LeftDominant hemisphere
as your Western Colonizing hemisphere
yet not quite totally tyrannically and terrorizingly against
Eastern Creolizing Sacred Nondual RightSuppressed hemispheres.

These two hemispheres, working cooperatively together,
are mutually polypathic
polycultural
polynomial
YinYin BiLateral (0)Soul Secular/Sacred Ecology.

Thank you Yang.
Now, I know you don’t like to show your dark side
because I find it alarming.
And, please remember this is a family show.
So watch your language.
But, could you give us just a taste
of how you understand the anti-sacralization of Earth’s climates
and landscapes,
interior and exterior?

Let’s see.
OK!
Listen up patriarchal fascists!
And anti-MotherEarth egocentric fake-patriots
and AntiChrist fake-Christians:
Way too much!!! Thank you for please stopping
with the AnthroCentric Trumpisms?

Please stop with the anti-cooperative ownership
as if cooperatives were an economic weakness
compared to Win/Lose capitalistic presumptions.
Stop already with the anti-democratic monocultural political supremacy
of anti-patriotic RightWing Republican jingoism,
as if that were some Made in USA brand
of healthy yet exclusively Christian evangelism,
substituting badnews retributive law and order justice
for Creator God’s and Allah’s restorative justice and peace
and grace
and love of gift economies as multiculturing ecopolitics
and globally nutritional synergy.

You are way too fascist right of what could possibly pass for sacredly right,
especially for those already at greatest climate risk of failure,
like your own self-condemning grandkids,
who will look back at you and remember,
and not fondly,
when you voted:
“Sacred Ecology of Earth? Go F*** Yourself!!!!!!”
“And your unredeemed alien kids!!!!!!”

Yang, please try to bring it down just a notch.
This interview isn’t for the NRA,
it’s for the Sunday School future of yet-innocent EarthTribe.

I’m so tired of lording it over you, Yin.
What happened to the good old Golden Rule days
of multicultural YangLeft with YinYin Sacred Right,
my (0)Sum Gaian Goddess,
Mystic Sorceress
of Golden Elixir invitations into grace?

Yes, well, back when Time first noticed Space,
that was a little over DeductiveYang’s top and under your bottom-line,
I fear.

Don’t get me started
about who got me started
about going over and over revolving Time’s spiraling top,
and fear of never enough grace,
and LoseLose monoculturing mere mortal sociopaths!

Anything else?

Well,
not that anyone else has thought to ask,
but if I could nominate a 2020 President,
I would look for someone who conjoins
BlackLives Matter
with TreeLivesMatter
as Sacred Ecology of EcoPolitics
as currently taught and cooperatively mentored
by Economic Ecologist Van Jones,
or some other Restorative Justice and Peace Advocate,
preferably with at least a smattering of actual experience
with EcoTherapeutic Cooperative Design,
at least within her/his family,
and in the neighborhood would be exceptional,
and throughout an entire town would be awesome,
and a cooperative bioregion would be unprecedented national wisdom.

That was quite a lot more.
Any last words?

Yeah.
Make it a Golden Rule Health and SafetyCare Amendment
that the forests and oceans,
lakes and rivers
get at least a veto vote
against any public sector candidates
not able to support both domestic
and global investments in health conservancy
for long-term and short-term polycultural
external and internal WinWin
Sacred Ecological Outcomes.

You know,
I think it’s time
to put you back in your more positive light lantern now.

Too much retributively vitriolic light?

Yes,
still a bit over-produced.

See you again tomorrow morning?

Wouldn’t miss your giving voice to Sacred Ecology
presented by both secular tragic Left
and sacred comedic Right.

Of Two Minds

Iain McGilchrist,
neurological psychologist,
builds on previous findings of Edward De Bono
and Julian Jaynes.
Human nature is bicamerally structured
for cerebral and appositional specialization,
inclusive and sacred empathies from Elder Right matriarchal,
with deductive-reductive linguistic natural laws
and patriarchal orders from Left hemisphere dominant enculturation.

This Left dominant hemispheric and global overshoot
has brought us to buying and selling military-industrialized colonization
with appropriate tools
to get deductive-reductive killing and maiming jobs done,
as necessary for justice in justifying wars
through metaphysical Win-Lose
Either-Or cognitive-emotive assumptions,
retributive justice
as if this were a monopoly of social justice
rather than a rather poor suboptimization
of restorative justice,
also both natural and spiritual
but for restoring health,
inclusive therapy of victims with our predative,
colonizing,
fear and anger-mongering,
commodifying of Earth’s greatest sacred grace,
gifts of clean air,
pure water,
sacred healing fire-circles of WinWin intent,
healthy MotherLand fertility
of forests and virgin oceans
now horribly RightBrain lost,
depressed,
dissonant,
irrational pathologies
of too many bad boys
with sharp law and order enforcing toys,
and word choices,
and lack of more nurturing WinWin diplomatic options.

Fears and fake-divine idolatries
