Bodhichitta Joy

Bodhichitta:

Is a supremely multicultural
golden elixir
overcoming sovereignty of death,
fear of mortality,
anger against loss
and suffering
and dispassionate inhumanity.

Is an inexhaustible
infinite
poly-rational treasure
eliminating,
absorbing,
healing poverty
in
and on
and over Earth’s orbiting
revolving
spiraling seasonal path.

Is supreme medicine
that quells
dispels Earth’s disease,
monoculturing unease,
swells polyculturing ease,
communion,
multiculturally intelligent communication.

Is a tree sheltering all living creatures
wandering
wondering
tired
retired
retreading this cooperatively-held path
of conditioned
reconditioned,
autonomously
interdependent,
mortal existence
immortal consciousness.

Is a universal bridge,
nutritional language,
healthy wealth
leading to liberal liberating liberty
from unhappy,
stingy,
conserving,
hoarding states of defensive birth
and child uncare.

Is a dawning moon of mindbodies
dispelling
respelling tumorous torment
of disturbing conceptions,
perturbing new moon misconceptions,
burbling cognitive dissociative dissonance,
gurgling bicameral full moon resonance.

Is a great sun
ultimately removing misty ignorance
of MotherEarth icons,
EarthMother original sources
resourcing our ecofeminist healthy home
in joy.

Turquoise Pond

Earth’s turquoise pond faces,
green life
blue reflecting

Re-membering under each calm surface
re-ligioning disparate
dispolarizing themes
of Spiral EcoPolitical Dynamics,

Surrounding forest factors,
time flowing forward
and re-connecting backward,
spirited and well-natured space,
health-reconditioning place,
win/win ego/ecosystemic democratic
developing pace

Awakens EarthHumane empowering systems
within curious individuals
living amid courageous global multicultures

Designed to win/win strategize with,
and co-acclimate to,
co-articulating BlueHealth/GreenWealth
calm-faced repositions.

Some individuals may be born
deviantly blue/green
in and out
through timeless spiraling time

Calm,
apparently placid,
yet full
ripe mindbodies

Win/win reset for a 20/20 turquoise millennium
just beyond green/yellow current depolarizing horizons
of most non-red Others
human and not not quite extinct
instincts of non-violent thoughts
with eco-feeling climates.

In this best of health/wealth EarthTime,
positive psychopolitical feminists
are revered as non-violent bodhisattvas
and matriarchal messiahs,
pathfinders,
20/20 peace-revolutionary visionaries.

In other bubbling
troubling
autocratic red-dominant times,
Turquoise ecofeminists are imprisoned,
burned-at-the-stake,
banished,
twitter-bullied,
enslaved,
raped,
pimped out,
polluted,
diluted,
seduced,
reduced

Reproduced
for a healthier
calming wealthier
pond-faced place
in Turquoise Timeless Time.

Disempowering Systems

Systemic racism
is a social/cultural pattern
of racial prejudice
originating within individuals
and their anecdotal experiences
and lack of multiculturally enriching discernment

Shedding light,
and shredding dark,
power analysis,
political and economic,
on patterns of white privileged events
unveils systemic patterns of win/lose empowered privilege
and disempowering lose/lose prejudices,
race and male and heterosexual privileged
anthropocentric unredeeming
lack of communication
events.

Take, for example,
a power analysis of John 3:16:

For God so loved the world [Earth and EarthCreatures]
That He gave His only begotten Son [patriarchal frame]
So that whosoever believes in Him
Shall not perish
But have eternal life.

Literalist
Fundamentalist
Conservative
Evangelical Christians
(should this prove not to be a complex oxymoron)
have supplanted believing in God’s radically interdependent EarthLove
(first phrase)
with doctrinal belief in Jesus of Nazareth
as God’s only begotten, privileged
humane/divine hybrid Son of
StraightWesternWhiteMale
LeftBrain Dominant
Military-Industrialized
Retributive Win/Lose Judging God.

This substitution of belief
in the privileged sacred status
of a Jewish male Teacher
and Prophet,
sharing his potentially viral experience
of Jewish AbbaCreator
as win/win power of universal multiculturing
regenerative Love,
is a culturally profound
early straight white western
(not particularly eastern nature/spirit nondualistic)
privileged-prejudicial moment
of defining God’s economic
and politically empowering grace
in troubling oppositional terms:

First phrase, Regenerative Source is universal Love,
and, third phrase,
Regenerative Source is historically-culturally,
systemically racist.

If, to be orthodox and effectively Christian
is to be spiritually privileged,
then those not born into evangelical Christian homes,
King James Bible reading communities,
Western dominating cultures
are disproportionately
and systematically
and historically under privileged,
disempowered
unredeemed
with less win/win graced
direct experience of Love
Light
Word internal/external
ego-refining/ecopolitical-defining win/win
potential spiritual/natural life optimizers.

Jesus of Nazareth’s prime experiential teaching,
story telling
prophetic “God is multiculturing universal win/win Love”
not revengeful monoculturing
win/lose systemic
racist Judge

Is not resonantly heard,
not resiliently felt,
neither tasted nor seen
through eyes and ears,
hands and heart,
mouth and nose
of straight white male privilege

Too leftbrain dominant
to divinely know
and nondualistically respect
appreciate
primacy of empowering cooperative green/blue Love experience
over disempowering competitive redblooded Lust
for theologically dogmatic unecological lack of relationship,
anthropocentric
xenophobic
narcissistic
individualistic ego-salvific power

To claim sacred wealth of life
for yourself and only your Tribe
by denying truths of sacred/secular empowerment
through win/win cooperative everyday experience
of communion
throughout all EarthTribes

Divine/humane
right/left
yin/yang
green/red
nonviolent communicating Light
of ChristMass Love
Words
Stories of CoRedemption

Democratic,
not autocratic,
experiences both ecologically natural
and theologically spiritual;

Devoid
Cleansed
Wiped Clean of racist,
straight male dominant,
leftbrain misculturing
unhealthy
unwealthy supremacy.

Integrity’s Felt Promise

If I may suggest
a possible improvement
in mystic teachings
about healthy meditation experience,
structure,
discipline,
neurological
and psychological
and, in more advanced classes,
sociological
cultural
and political correctness,

I would compassionately ask
if we have not spilled
rather too much verbal ink
attending to cognitive awareness
and not enough
on affective
contextual
interdependently felt intelligence,

Distinguishing subtle nuances
ambiguity
everyday mundane in-between nest
of empowering anticipation feelings
(not merely win/win revolutionary awareness)
and disempowering darker anxiety feelings
(not just win/lose
evolutionary/devolutionary
theoretically privileged consciousness).

Back the Black and Blue

What do you do
when you’re a black cop
at a Back The Blue protest
with a Black Lives Matter
counter-protest
in front of you,
to left and right,
and possibly pursuing your rear
and career?

Which direction
does your identity choose,
if not to feel troubled
by a false choice
either way?

Is there some platform,
strange principle,
peculiar position
among Mattering Political Black Lives
that you cannot have
a healthy vocation
while carrying a ballistic weapon
and continue being a Black Life
in good and valued standing?

Or, to Back my Blue,
must I succumb
to StraightWhitePatriarchal Privilege?

Are there any color boxes
still widely open
and deeply inviting?

Can I not aspire to become
a non-binary bound,
non-white,
ecofeminist for EarthRights
to health and safety
and peace
and restoring green justice?

Recognizing
and appreciating
only Earth as Master,
Mistress,
Goddess,
Sacred Eden.

Discarding old school memories
of enslaved custody of imprisoned eyes
and ears for hearing,
suppressing custody of healthy taste
and fragrantly smelled beauty,
of cooperative touch
and globally compassionate feeling,

Regarding green lives matter schools
and reschooled deep learning
full 20/20 ownership
of Black and Blue
and Green proud lives
for multicultural mediation.

Greek Democrats

In the 1700s,
Western hemisphere,
“Democracy”
was an ancient Greek legend
of wildly rabid forums,
with mixed philosophical reviews
as to its realistic merit
for effective governance.

Uniting Republican States,
especially those less industrially endowed,
those more slave labor force enriched,
more Southern ecopolitical patriarchs
required a Bible
more than democratic theory
to establish retributively justified white male supremacy,

Social segregation,
economic apartheid
between persons become property
and Caucasian male properties
become 100% empowered democratic persons
while yet fully blessed
with God’s evangelical grace,
prosperity,
well-being,
enlightenment,

Darkly shadowed
by egocentric
anthro-divinely supreme
endarkenment.

Within this newly revolutionary chrysalis,
democratic philosophy
of patriarchal retributive justice
was reborn,
as best it could
without more contemporary
restorative healing justice
and multicultural peace experience,

Open dialogical reflection,
whole inclusive EarthSystem contemplation
of what could it mean
to sacredly and secularly anticipate
cooperative energy democracy
at an ecopolitically global
and local
humane property scale
of graced compassion.

Defending Democratic DogLives

Dear Thom the Train
Attorney Page,

Defender of all Creatures
here below
in these DisUniting States
of throwback uncivil disunion,

What is your root foundation
for a constitutional argument
that all living residents
of these remaining United Democratic States
have a right
to restoring healthy justice,
to resiliently retaining healthy life?

Is this sacred democratic Source
inter-related with values
like well-being
prosperity
liberty
public health optimization,
declarations of defensive rights
for all Creation
to freely seek democratic empowerment
and liberating enlightenment?

Non-royalist
non-fascist
non-authoritarian
non-patriarchal
non-colonizing
non-racist
non-demonizing
non-anthropocentric,
non-xenophobic
non-narcissistic
non-egocentric
and, thereby, pro-green new and ancient win/win deals.

I am not a lawyer,
as you can clearly already hear,
but more of a constitutional
polycultural historian,

So, how do you briefly argue
in courts of your licit choosing,
an evolutionary theory
of democracy still healthily emergent?

Starting with straight
white
patriarchal property owners
of
African and Native American
domesticated and feminized
economic and political
natural and spiritual slaves,

Moving multiculturally out
to include prisoners
and homeless shelter dwellers,
human
and now our imprisoned
and life-endangered dogs
and cats,
horses
and cattle,
birds
and guines pigs
of democratic tensions
intentions
extensions
of dominating fraternity
and liberating sorority.

History shows
where our constitutional democratic story began
with white straight male slave-owner privilege,

But, how do you predict where
and when this evolving
expanding
emergent cooperative health-wealthing
cooperative reality
should
or could
or would globally end?

Or,
it is your brief courtship win/win position
that we must expect no such end
to this multiculturally revolutionary
democratic 20/20 revolution?

Moving from more Straight White Patriarchal
independence days
toward more resiliently fulfilling
Earth InterDependence Days
and sensory moonlit nights

Of freely orbiting stars
and planets
from democratizing Positive/Negative
Yang/Yin Energy

Empowering health,
Enlightening true and beautiful
polycultural
trans-historic
epic green
democratic wealth.

Buddha Listening

Buddha is deeply listening

My esteemed teacher
kindly reminds me,

“To see the master
not as a [merely natural] human being,
but as the Buddha himself,
is the source [and resource]
of highest blessing.”

But,
not necessarily the deepest blessing
for all EarthBodies
seeking spiritual multicultures
of regeneration.

For ecofeminists,
reincarnations of The Buddha,
win/win green
yet still appearing
and reappearing Male,

Remains win/lose disappointingly dissonant
with Padmasambhava’s Promise,
“Complete devotion
brings complete blessing;
absence of doubts
[especially about issues of health and environmental safety]
brings complete blessing;
absence of doubts
brings complete [win/win] success.”

It concerns me,
this universally intended
therapeutic resolution
for optimizing spiritual enlightenment
for all internal multicultural valuers

Still,
in the town where you live,
in the heart you won’t give,
fails to recognize
a healthy green new deal
ecofeminist
may find it easier
if Master
were maybe more Matriarchal,

If male characteristics of The Patriarchal Buddha
could give more multiculturing room
to daughters and sons
and all trans-sensory in-between buddhas
and Positive Deviant Messianic EcoDesigners
and Feminist Carpenters
and Restorative Green Justice ReCyclers
and Climate Health Activists

Matriarchal Teachers
primally schooled by MotherEarth,
Goddess Gaia
Green NonPartisan CoPassionate Communicators
CoOperators
Win/Win Ego/EcoSystemic L/R dipolar gamers,

PolyPhonically conscious
of PolyPathic amusing thought experiments
spiritual
and sensual
and sensory

As Buddha,
deeply ecofeminist
and widely multicultural, listens.

UnderStated Yet OverHeard

I’m not comfortable
talking about racial differences,

Or even racial
or sensual similarities.

I know what you mean
or maybe I do.
Something intimate and personal
about melanin
and hair qualities
and what lies red-blooded
under shared and segregated skin.

I remember when long hair quantity
was an anti-patriarchal political statement,
maybe even economic;
But not qualities
like “good” hair
or “black” hair
or “kinky” hair
or “Aryan” blond hair
or “much too blond” hair.

I’m uncomfortable
talking about kinky sex, too.

I’m hearing something about mixing
personal and political.

I know, right?

Like, when did the decision to have a baby
or not,
because of emergent climate pathologies,
impending drought
and hunger

Pandemics

Floods

Fierce and frightening windstorms

Failure of insurance
and financial
and healthy-democratic v fake-populist government systems
become more than merely personal?

I don’t know.
I’m starting to see reality of power-centers
the eco-Other way around.

Meaning…

That personal climates
and characteristics
are also politically empowering
and/or disempowering,
often with economic
investment and/or divestment
implications;
Not partisan, especially,
but essentially political,
like positive and negative cultural power.

When was the last time
someone told you,
“It’s not personal,
I’m just not ready to commit”
Or
“It’s not personal,
it’s just a time and money budget problem”
Or
“an administrative decision”
“come down from corporate”
“change in [impersonal, generic, general] policy”
“a decision [choice] made upstairs”
about a group of individuals
of which you, unfortunately,
are a now unwanted part.

As if,
because it’s political
or economic policy,
it can’t become legitimately felt as personal
disempowerment
or even familial empowerment;
like capitalistic corporately learned responses
to cultures of melanin
and kinkiness.

My favorite
is when people ask me
not to confuse religion
with politics
and economics.

I know, right?
Like most of Earth’s human population
could
or would place their faith
in politically impoverished
or economically disempowered
counter-cultural
communitarian cooperative communication
and spiritual and sensory education
and ecofeminist formation failing systems

Like ecologically failing subclimates
and theologically monoculturing racism
and sexism
and straight white patriarchal privileged
left-brain dominant systems.

Personal systems.

And political.

And economic.

And social-psychological

Multiculturally transmitted

Whether by democratic constitutions
or divinely inspired scriptures
or patriarchal lines of spiritual masters
teachers with diverse levels of aboriginal melanin,
and good or kinky hair,
and those upper eyelid folds
I’m not sure I Western trust…

NonViolent Communication

NonViolent Communication
might become more
democratically and multiculturally accessible
as NonDissonant Communication,

Affectively and cognitively bilateral
and, at least potentially,
multiculturally polyempathic,
inclusive,
contextually intelligent,

Articulated more positively
as Confluent Communication

About experiences of communion
and anti-communion
and miscommunion,

CoPassionate Communication,
about multicultural
EarthTribe Healthy Communion.
