Historical Matters

It matters,
not just politically and economically,
but also psychologically
and scientifically
and culturally
and ecologically
and educationally,
whether your history of American development
only seldom begins before Columbus Day,
and inevitably ends with flag waving on Independence Day,
or if American loyalty to and for healthy development
began way back in pre-history,
when Father SunYang
gave birth to YinMother Earth.

Who lies within
and who and what and when and where and why remain without
your sense of Earth-patriotic identity
depends on when and where and why
you start your own evolving history,
and where you are OK about our creation story ending.

Growing Organic Happiness

Mature and robust and resonant happiness,
like true wealth,
is made,
seldom simply found.

Happiness, spiritual gratitude,
unlike material wealth,
cannot be inherited by legal right.

Happiness,
like mental health,
and unlike cognitive-affective dissonance,
cannot be owned,
yet works best when shared,
cooperatively governed,
and can be as positively illusory and fleeting
as chronic stress can be negatively delusional,
like Robert Pirsig’s “gumption trap.”

Happiness is the currency of love,
as blossoms are to healthy
and trusting
and cooperative root systems.

Why is this as difficult to grasp
and hold onto,
this ultimate ecopolitical and psychological power
of healthy love,
spirit of cooperative gratitude
for Earth’s richly paid-forward Grace,
as it is easy to dwell on the fear and angry hated distrustful roots
of dissonance
and decay
and decadence
and decomposition?

Why would WinWin ecopolitics of happiness
grow any less dominant
than WinLose suboptimization
of integrity’s great and small transitional promise?

Why either LeftBrain successful outcomes
or RightBrain lovely happiness incomes?

Why Economic rationality
or EcoLogical sacred sanity?

Oh right,
I recall
here at last,
Mature and robust and resonant happiness,
like true wealth,
is cooperatively made,
seldom simply found.

NightFlights

From onset of puberty
on through my early twenties
I had frequent flyer dreams.

Like learning to ride a bike,
I was nocturnally certain
just the right balance of body focus and mind flexibility
would lead to inevitable lift-off.

Perhaps it was not a coincidence
that the more daylight time riding my first and last red three-speed bike,
the more likely I was to invest my nightflights
in flying forward and yet flexibly floating free
to soar with stars
float and spin with the moon
looking down and back and out at EarthTribe’s AquaMarine Home,
laced with also flying cumulus fluffs of vaporous white,
as ephemeral as identity myself.

Adolescent hubris,
I know,
to imagine floating flexibly
with just sufficient internal focus, balance, centering
as if a Bodhisattva Flyer
of space as time traveling
forward future
and backward pasts,
outer becomings swelling
with inner flying beings co-gravitating
contracting concentric balance,
dreams of humane-growing flight as inhalation,
internal as external exhalation
mindbody co-operation,
co-optation,
co-present floating flights
of dreamscaped transparent night.

In my dream
we remain free to fly,
free from mind v body polarities,
spirit-nature remains inspiring bodies,
spiral flying full-flight dreams
of economic
and political
and psychological
EarthTribe Revolutions.

Growing Healthier EcoPolitical Relationships

Is life truly good healthy wealth
because I wanted it to be that way,
or because it truly is good health wealth
that we all want to become?

Yes, probably both.
And the reverse might be pathologically true as well.

One Elder saying
less often found in wisdom literature
than versions of Golden Rules and Ratios:
“Never harvest more than half.”

This self-taking acts both ecologically
and analogically
as a Reverse Golden Rule.

WinWin ecopolitical and psychological
positive optimization of health outcome
rules and ratio estimations:
Never ego-take
more than half of what you need,
want,
prefer,
believe is your right
in cooperation with Others’ competing rights.

Golden EcoPolitical Rule, Corollary:
Always give back and re-invest grace received,
up to half,
with WinWin gratitude–
but not more than half.

Because the healthiest, most robustly resilient, flexible half of ecological ratios
is LeftBrain Both-And blind and mute Yin co-arising dipolarity,
bilateral co-intelligence of
yin plus yin equals yin times yin
and, thus, yin-squared-fractals
are equivalent to holonic-holy-sacred double-bound octave harmonic Yang,
4Based geometric thermodynamic dimensional
linear and symmetric plane balance,
the enculturing landscape
where Yang remains contented
timelessly with always re-investing in RightBrain Yin
as Mother Earth
has ego50%/eco50%
re-invested in creating ecopolitical you.

Is life truly good healthy wealth
because Ego wanted me to be that way,
or because EarthLifeTribe truly is good health wealth
that Ego wants to continue becoming,
conjoining,
dipolar co-arising
WinWin?

Life is up to half about how you choose to play our relationships
with you,
but the remainder is about which ecopolitically ruled and ratioed game
we have learned to play,
WinWin global species democratic
or WinLose nationalistic
patriarchal dominant,
ego-ubercentric plutocratic,
Elitist EcoPolitics,
lacking our fair-share of grace to re-invest in Earth
and gratitude for health50%-wealth50% gifts received.

There are other Elder teachings
about Yang Light and Yin DualDark co-gravitating nurturing flowstreams,
Earth’s original revolving-spiraling ecological Mentors.

Here As Now

Yang is polypathic health-strength Here,
ego-convexly witnessed,
while Yin revolves Earth’s Four thermodynamic spiraling seasons,
together Zero-tempered wu-wei Sacred Now

This primal relationship,
within each 0-sum moment,
within MotherEarth’s sacred ecology
projects both back through Elder RightBrain interdependence
and LeftBrain’s secular-agnostic mistrust
of futures not yet hoped for,
of pasts now underground
with worms and RNA root systems
in a cognitive-affective dissonant understoried world
where only above ground anthro-centered lives matter,
while below, as above, grows fading pathological climates
of dualdark clouds and dusts and rusts
while we remain both secular Left
and Sacred Right
talking past each other,
rather than speaking through
Prime PolyCulturing EcoTones,
anthro-salient as sacred bicameral Earth,
as above,
so below,
as past,
so shall we become
and notnot become future EcoHarmonic.

Slow Grown Sunrise

Some mornings I slow down.
If you saw me this morning,
you might reasonably conclude
I could not possibly reduce my productive pace,
a social disgrace,
slogging through my domestic place.

Days, or at least my light within each day,
grow shorter,
while everything remains to be done
to care for future generations
of children
and puppies
and cubs
and kittens
and kids
and calves.

Yet dawn silently screeches toward timelessness
as I realize
I was produced
in a moment of ecstasy,
but also nine-months prepared to thrive
on Earth,
while my unique,
yet resonantly symbiotic, DNA
is born of prehistoric generations,
back when time and light’s productive moments
were measured in full and empty,
ecstatic and aptic,
rising toward another regenerative morning,
and setting toward yet another sacred decomposing night.

It is this slow memory of near timelessness
that revolves through my bones and flesh
and is cooperatively shared
not just with my own Win-matriarchal
and Win-patriarchal lines,
but also our globally shared regeneration
through timeless ecstatic moments
of symbiotic great transitions,
commencing nine months for each preparation
to greet our brothers and sisters,
cousins and families
extending back through competing histories
and cooperative matriarchal nutrition and health mentoring,
fire and wind and water and safety education,
revolving through slow-growth wisdom
of timeless sunrise,
oceans of DNA an Elder RNA,
regenerative,
synchronic
places and times,
landscapes
and heathy creolizing climates.

I have bloomed and wilted
where I have been planted,
and where I have chosen to plant myself,
and our future
greeting past revolving sacred memories,
here with now.

When Beauty Turns Dark

Beauty includes dignity,
respect easily visible
to our nutritional sensors,
including when Beauty grows dark edges.

We each,
individually,
and as a species of life form,
have our unique and our speciated EarthBeauty functions,
perhaps what also translates as Sacred Grace
for some,
Sacred Ecology
for more LeftBrain dominant others.

Beauty is its own purpose,
finds our own internal and interdependent-external meanings
in place
and time.

Beauty,
in natural grace systems,
is influenced by seasonal changes,
with reasons and purposes of Earth’s own nutritional beauty,
sacred grace.

It is so easy to love Beauty,
to want to cooperate with grace,
to need to dance with just the right song,
right place,
right day and night,
sung just the right harmonic way,
together.

But, beauty, like natural grace,
like naturally nutritional elements
in any holonic,
yet seasonal, revolving organic system
can turn dark,
sour,
prematurely fragile
through anger
shadowing deeper economic and political fears
shadowing basic
foundationally
profoundly paranoid distrusts
of Earth’s basic Beauty
fundamental Grace
conservational,
seasonal,
revolutionary WinTruth of Yang optimization
through WinBeauty of GraceFlow Yin
cooperative EquiValence.

Dipolar Left and Right can retain mutual interdependent appositions,
and yet not tolerate bipolar oppositional dualdark beauty
of terrifying awe
perpetuating internal cognitive-affective chronic paranoid dissonance
and external patriarchal marches toward ecopolitical monocultural elitism,
WinLose LeftBrain dominant
Competing Deductive Truths v Cooperative Inductive Beauty
when WinWin Left-Truth within each individual’s
and each species’ Elder Right DNA/RNA-harmonic Beauty
could evoke gratitude
for cooperatively incorporated Grace,
where dark beauty hides
in fear and shame
envy and disgrace
bigotry and fear
both ego-hubris and eco-anemic
Left-dominant and Right-oppressed
Yang against Yin
competitionally dissonant and mongering,
culling and rapacious,
rabid self and other competitions in hatred
and fear of terrifying loss and decay and notnot beautiful death ourselves,
hypnotic paranoid mistrust of Earth’s nature-spirit Beauty becoming,
psychological and ecopolitical.

Individual internal Beauty
embraces external dignity of ecosystems,
cooperative biosystemic networks
of co-governing democratic
slow WinWin growth in Beauty management
for polycultural,
full rainbow,
timeless gratitudes
within Earth’s seasonally revolutionary
spacetime
Sacred Grace.

The mysteries of dark reverse-Beauty
resolve through resonantly active love
rather than more dissonantly reactive hate,
retribution,
revenge,
from which such dualdarkness
originally derived.

Weaving Protest Songs and Dances

Robin Wall Kimmerer,
in Braiding Sweetgrass,
describes the first three woven rows
in process of making an ash basket.

The first Yang row of ecological root structure
is most impossibly conflicted
between extreme tensions up and down.
Weaving Yang-dominant is more of a competitive march
through miserable times of patriarchal-only history.

The second yin row,
of ecopolitical consumer ebb and producer flow,
is also difficult
in the same oppositional reverse tension with Yang way
as Yang was first row intransigent,
but also because Yin wants to evenly
bilaterally divide Tipping Points
of weaving in and out splints
and threads
and strings of regenerating spirals,
so timing with spacing adds to the more appositional weaver’s second row
slow slog through matriarchal nurturing
of pregnant right proportion
and symmetric time,
consuming conception
to produce rebirth
of consumers of patriarchal-matriarchal
Yang-Yin re-conception.

The third row is our first Tao wu-wei,
in-between Yang with appositional second-tier Yin,
now co-arising and co-gravitating tensions
balancing extreme bilateral boundaries,
Yang with Yin nuanced edge margins
of 0-sum growing basket tensions.

Now the weaver is free to focus more on wave-linear rhythms
of out yin
and in toward yang ego 0-core center,
like breathing in toward ego,
then back out again
to economic’s Earth-center.

This third dipolar co-arising row
is when the singing can best begin
to join fingers and hands and arms
and upper mindbodies dancing to Yang ecological framing
and Yin economies of ergodic rhythmic spacing,
flow of 0-sum thermodynamic grace.

Traditionally,
this has been a practice more of matriarchal cooperatives
rather than patriarchal competitive marches
through military-industrializing hunting expeditions,
LeftBrain dominant shouting
and ballistically historic contests
in spreading violence.

If our history,
personal,
as well as that delivered by mass mediated resources,
were more about who could weave and dance and sing
our YangYin ecological economic political basket best,
that would be more of a good news herstory day
and week,
and month,
and year,
and lifetime of YangYin ego-eco centering education
for designers and cooperative song and dance skillset development,
including our schools,
and Sunday Schools,
and libraries,
and Senior Centers,
and Youth Centers,
and Community and Family Centers,
and family rooms
more cooperatively weaving
and less competitively texting and twittering
on ego-centered cells
yet getting slowly smarter phones,
watching Red Yang
and GreenBlue Yin
reweave polypathic baskets
of revolving spiral EarthJustice,
while singing and dancing polyphonic SpaceTime patterns.

EcoTones

Ecotones
are ruled by prevailing polycultures,
unusually fertile margins between two bioregions,
like a continental-ocean shoreline
or a clear blue lakeshore
poised above green grassy plains
and below glaciered and alpine forested mountains.

Ecotones
are broader when horizontal,
or can be,
but always comparatively narrow
when delineated vertically,
the boundary between worm cultures
and above-ground human cultures
and above-head atmospheric waves,
ebbs and flows
of radiant light and misty clouds,
Full Moons and storied mysterious starlight.

Our bilateral intelligence
can also see an even sharper
culling
creolizing
prime temporal ecotone
riding the Great Transition divide
between impossible invisibility of predicting distant healthy generations
and lives, both healthy and pathological,
extending back from each eternal moment,
matriarchally integrative in reverse rememory
to yesterday,
last month,
last year,
former decades

Who was that person,
and how is s/he the same,
and different than this me now?

On back to each EgoIdentity’s
first interdependently autonomous awareness
of embryonic creolizing bicameral life,
Self inside matriarchal Sacred Other’s
paradise womb of MotherEarth
DNA memory,
hypostatic unions between lives stringing back
through gracefilling RNA
regenerate margins of unfolding fulfillment,
primally ergodic rhythms
and fractal 4Dimensioned patterns
through temporal margins
of reweaving
revolving
spiraling EcoTones,
culling integrative nurturing time.

This primal relationship,
within each 0-sum moment,
within MotherEarth’s sacred ecology
projects both back through Elder RightBrain interdependence
and LeftBrain’s secular-agnostic mistrust
of futures not yet hoped for,
of pasts now underground
with worms
in a cognitive-affective dissonant understoried world
where only above ground
and below growing pathological climates
of dualdark clouds
remains both secular Left
and Sacred Right
Prime PolyCulturing EcoTone,
anthro-salient as sacred bicameral Earth,
as above,
so below,
as past,
so shall we become
and notnot become future EcoHarmonic.

We would have better moments,
and better days,
to remember
both ecotones from which we came,
and ecotones toward which we return,
are each the same,
secular thicker and sacred cutting edge,
bilaterally divided
by each co-integrative moment,
like breathing in
and breathing out,
which is which,
depends on whether you are DNA you
or an RNA tree,
or somehow reforesting,
WinWin wu-wei both,
growing parallel above/below ground
deep listening nurturing learning
to cooperatively communicate
ego/ecotone root systems
are also fertile DNA/RNA creolizing boundaries.

Scripts and Choreography

Sacred scripture, especially creation stories,
is to natural-spiritual (nondual) experience

As permaculture designs
are to polycultural outcomes

As cooperative economic intent and planning and investment
are to loving political incomes

As nutritional planning
is to health care giving and receiving
(also nondual).

As ecological wisdom
is to sacred polypathic scripture,
especially re-creation stories.
