Atheists are Panentheists

What is the difference between an atheist and a panentheist?

Atheists cannot discover any signs of divinity outside ourselves
While the panentheist uncovers what organizes interior landscapes and climates.

In Buddhism we have a principle of Emptiness
and a correlated principle of Interdependence.
Atheists stop rather abruptly with the Emptiness platform
while panentheists are so bogged down by all us Interdependents,
sorting through co-dependent relationships
but without the therapy bills,
Emptiness feels like an unfamiliar but theoretically welcome relief,
like solitude before it turns into sour loneliness.

So maybe a LeftBrain atheist
is also a RightBrain panentheist,
and the two together is a Buddhist.

There is no inconsistency here.
just two faces of the eternally timeless,
just as time is lost to sensory review
when it becomes most sacredly replete.

Other than that, one is harder to spell
and takes a whole lot longer to fully articulate.

How Can You Say

How can you say
with your not quite straight face
that you neither know nor care
anything of God, or gods, or even exotic goddesses?

That’s like saying you don’t care for any love today,
or rain during a drought,
but thanks so very much for suggesting your best holistic medicine,
all the same,
all the grace-filled rain that came some other place and day.
Like saying you don’t enjoy music
and dance
and red and purple and pink and yellow bruised violet sunsets.

How could you not care about creative becoming?
Regeneration of life?
The future home of our grandchildren?
Health care and assurance?
Social securities?
Anti-social insecurities?
Ecopolitical war games
and creative multicultural nature-spirit communications,
living in and between peacefully Beloving Communities.

How can you pretend
with that half-smirk
that this Earth Goddess we are regenerating
is no one you could know
or care deeply about?
To co-redeem, co-mentor?
To love into health by divesting of that anthrocentric hypocrisy,
thinking we could name,
much less commodify, God without idealizing self-imaged YHWH.

Why would you take a pass
on exploring our shared fully humane divinity?

This could not be true
not really you
not the Self with Others past and future right now you
would most prefer to know.

How can you know
we’re not gods and goddesses
in our integrity?
in our potential for regenerativity?
economic and politically ecological
sync-tensegrity,
love of full-stretch multi-colored jazzy soul livity.

You know you want to dance and sing
as god and goddess
within and on,
for and of Mother Gorgeous Gaia’s
embryonic womb
through decompositionally recomposing,
transubstantiating dualdark tomb
of elational happy Golden Aging bliss.

Or, did I miss something
in that twinkling of your fertile sky?

EcoPolitics of Psychologically Healthy Climates

If you don’t like the look or taste or smell of an Old Overly-Competitive Climate, then notice how it is slowly and intricately evolving into and toward dipolar abundance as a Revolutionary New EcoPolitical System, hopefully and empathically more trustingly and faithfully cooperative.  (A very loose paraphrase of Buckminster Fuller on great transitioning between old and new systems as  information-ing networks, and cooperatively developing ecopolitical climates.)

To love, agapic and/or erotic,
is a positive economic-political relational choice
to trust whomever
and whatever
is our Other right now
with our open caring empathy,
even when we may feel like withdrawing
into our suffering,
self-isolating
depressive,
repressed concerns of mistrust and dissonance,
because we have faith
that not only is this choice to integratively love,
to pay love forward,
how we define doing our ecopolitical and ecological best,
but also because we trust from prior experience
this is most likely to facilitate Others
doing their best as well.

Circles of affection and disaffection are both viral,
but only one is viciously so,
Both positive and negative psyches unveil viscous potential,
but only one tends toward sustained reiterative communication
in kind,
benign,
the other viscosity trends toward unkind, active distrust,
eventually hatred,
also a learned ecopolitical choice, at one time,
over several habitual and then hypnotizing times.

When this becomes most interesting for me
when I turn from thinking of Other as a person
or a group of people
or a set of people
or the human natural-languaged species,
and think, instead of Other as a member of some other organic species,
including those with root systems,
including coral reefs and tidal barriers,
or even other natural Black Hole environments and gestalts,
networking mandalas of seas
and mountain trails
throughout the changing of each season,
where love is my ubiquitously obvious and natural default,
not so much feeling like a choice,
but like what I have known as good and healthy and beautiful,
occasionally interrupted by pests.

Yet, even noticing whiney mosquitoes
and buzzing icky biting flies,
short of a horde swarming all about paranoid me,
is often cause for bittersweet slaps and swats
and imaginary battles between David and Goliath,
with me cast as the benignly-intended Monster Giant,
merely out to protect my own skin
regardless of mortal consequences
and risks
and ecopolitical opportunities
of Other,
smashed to bits.

When my days become overly clogged with strictly human discourse,
when human nature monopolizes my monoculturish time,
my symbol seems to be that of a molting snake,
awakening to a new but uncertain skin each dewy morning,
a somewhat different identity
than those accumulated through all my dreamy/nightmare yesterdays.

But, when I recreate outdoors
in and with and of more virginal embryonic Earthy nature,
then my icon becomes an inviting hummingbird,
always curiously flying about seeking and sending succulent rapture,
far too fast and urgently blissful for noticing,
much less slitherally eating, those pesky mosquitoes.

Inviting co-empathic trust
defines
Doing my best to follow
our Golden Rule,
for and of and with me
and my Elders
and our kids.

Inviting empathic cooperatively-invested trust
is to invite a climate of informed
incarnate
kosmic risks and opportunities
usually small yet sometimes Great Transitions
of Grace as Love as Karma as Positive Psychology
as a healthy regenerative ecopolitical gestalt,
mandala,
network,
ecosystem,
Earth,
natural-spiritual dipolar co-arising
profane-sacred
humane-divine
Tao-BiCameral Universe
of Snakes greeting Hummingbirds
and notnot dialectal vice-viral-versa.

Our Home Right and Wrong

Earth’s Rights
and Lefts
for
and to
a Healthy Climate;
and please not so much climatic pathologies
for Her
and all her EarthTribal RNA/DNA encrypted species,
extended families,
if you could imagine for a minute
this vast coin-sedately breathing organic network
hoping together for Earth’s Present Future Rights,
and not those pesky Wrongs.

Whaddaya mean?
Earth could have no rights.
It’s a planet
not a person.

Oh, great, a heckler.
Just what I need right now.
Excuse me, didn’t you give corporations ecopolitical rights of persons?
Can’t you see Earth as the ultimate incorporated person?
with internationally protected rights and responsibiities
and ecological authorities
to behave with ecotherapeutic healthy nutritious ecopolitical practice?

I thought so.
Earth wants us to know
She agrees with our ecologists and economists
and our more cooperative multicultural political leaders
seeking to advance healthy-wealthy climates
and recess those too pathological.

She wants us to remember
together we have every regenerative right of therapeutic solidarity
to broadly expand current normative exegesis
of our PermaCultural Golden Rule:

Do to Earth
as She has done,
is doing,
and is cooperatively committed to regeneratively continue evolving
into our future time;
as you would optimally trend HealthWealth Quality Improvement
through WinWin strategies of Cooperative EcoPolitical Systems,
regenerative,
healthy,
sustainable,
therapeutic,
ecological,
economic,
political,
psychological,
biological outcomes,
as you would have Her continue unto/with you
and all your future and past fellow-EarthTribe
(0)-soul
sum
core
bilateral-binomial-binary-functional dipolar investments
on through all our future healthy multiculturally
cooperative-normed regenerations,
revolutions,
resonance,
resolutions, etc…

Following diastatically elational,
bliss-filled beautiful harmonious
irresolutely nonpolynomially exformationally out
away from (0)Core dualdark cosmology,

Predicting regeneratively reweaving healthy
integrative
informing
in-tellus-anthromorphic
Black Hole MultiFrequencied Blissful
dipolar co-arising
co-gravitating
Yang/Yin humors,
climates of health v pathology
in all ecosystems evolving
emerging
from and toward
historic-cultural paradigm development,
Creation Stories of myth with logos,
yin as yang,
RightInductive-Recessive as LeftBrain Deductive-Dominant.

Neither natural nor encultured conduct codes
have any interest in healthy v pathological norms and behaviors
of corporations and their rights and responsibilities.
Law and logic are neutral
regarding public health.

I doubt your law is so anemic.
But, if true,
we need to work on that,
preferably in a more multiculturally inclusive-cooperative way
of dialectal discernment
for ecopolitical WinWin choice-making,
as mentored by regenerative Earth’s nondual co-arising Rights
of Healthy Nature-Spirit EcoSystems.

So corporate Earth’s Rights
are to be exegeted by natural law
as if kosmic karma,
coincidental past cause with future regenerate/degenerate outcomes?

And Grace,
don’t forget about our Evangelicals,
Western and Middle-Eastern Fundamentalists,
who themselves too pathologically forget
that Grace is just another word for love.

And Buckminster Fuller comprehended love
as just another metaphysical word
for physical-natural-spiritual-ergodic-ionic-eutaxic
prime relational fractal-octave
syntaxed
harmonic integrating synergy,
like photosynthetic regenesis
as primal relationship of Sun’s fertile Light
with Earth’s Green/Blue double-boundaried in/out
(0)-soul evolving healthy cooperative BubbleSkin.

BubbleSkin.
Really?
You begin with Earth Rights
to end with BubbleSkin therapy?

Recycling of time’s revolutions
either has no beginning or end
or these are each appositional faces of
bicameral EarthElite v AnthroNonElite ecopolitical revolution,
learnin’ us some lessons in mutual cooperativity.

More Positive Deviance

From Rob Brezsny, except my own bracketed commentary, Pronoia, p. 274:

I say that the Creator includes death as an essential part of evolution’s master plan.
Lifetime after lifetime,
our immortal[ly shared DNA/RNA solidarity] souls take on a series of temporary forms
as we help unfold,
in our own small ways,
the inconceivably complex plot
of the divine [regenerating positively deviant v. negatively pathologically deviant] drama.
Each time we die,
it’s hard and sad to our time-bound [tragically doomed reductive] egos.
But from the perspective of the part of us that has always been
and will always be,
it’s simply part of the epic adventure
[divine comedy].

The abolition of [self and other-selves] suffering
is a worthy goal [of positive deviance].

Flying Invocations

My backyard birds call me each morning.
Come join our oceanic swimming pools
our mountainous nests.
Come fly with us
if only for this brief respite
immersed in imaginary sanity.

Away from risks and opportunities
of complexly motivated and languaged human nature
longing to rediscover
our eternally humane ecological nature,
belonging reconnected
as and with and in Earth’s flying raptured nature.

Birds sing namaste benedictions,
invocations, with us.
How are you?
Come back to us.
Remember you came from
a long regenerating family
of singing flying swimming
rooting full-octave nurturing voices.

We each,
together,
build our shrine in Earth’s wilderness,
or recreate nothing of healthy value
accessible to all.

Ta(0)-zen Climate Healthy PolyPaths

The more continuous from past through future our ego-stretching identity becomes,
the more god/dess-humane omnipotent emerges
our original polypathic multicultural intent
and future climate health practice.

Consilience,
co-empathic democratic trust,
between religious faith systems,
each transubstantiating interdependent spiritual dynamics among ourselves,
we call syncretism.

Reconciling trust between ecopolitical paradigms as health-thru-dying networks of dialectal values,
transliterating our natural ionic,
bionic,
and ergodic rhythmed dynamics,
we call integrative synergy.

Energy,
as polypathic space
equivocating coincidental co-arising
bilateral time,
equivalent dipolar images, consciousness
within inductive-empathic notnot polynomial balance.

Yes, all 3D Space and 1DipolarTime are interdependently relative,
but, no, not so normatively relative that
c-squared enlightenment could be any more or less than Eulerian Prime Geo/Eco/Ego DiPolar Systemic Relationship e-squared,
with slow-grow (0)-Core/Care/Sum/Soul MultiCultural Interest/Investment
Fractal-Acidic-Convexing flow-forming regenerate Order.

With such reconciling consilience in (0) mind as (1) body,
it feels increasingly important, even urgent,
to remember that I am most fully Divine Energy
when I fully comprehend we grow health-reconciling active trusters
doing the best we can to democratically re-gather
as NotNot Gods–Wise Elder Nurturing Gaia Goddesses.

We feel primal therapeutic multicultural recalling-incarnating-evolving corollaries:
God is discontinuously me with belief in you,
also half Divine and half Humanizing, humaneing,
wise cooperative regeneration,
becoming and notnot being words-within as informing-without.

We recall intelligent truth as beauty-design genius
across multicultural fields
and paradigms
and rhetorical frames
and landscaped climates of ecotherapeutic health resonance
overpowering dissonant suboptimal underproductive pathologies
to become reconciling polypaths,
eco-consiliating residents of Earth consciousness.

Political Science becomes, then, cooperative studies
of and for ecopolitically cooperate-reconciling powers-with,
not so much corporate-competing suboptimally losing powers-over,
less than omnipotent eco-power balancing intent
stuck in Business As Usual economic practice.

Ecopolitical powers both evolve from and contribute to
future climate health of multicultural regenerativity
as powers of cooperation absorb mono-teleological,
mono-theistic,
mono-enculturing power-over intent
and capital-hoarding economic non-transactional absence of healthy practice.

It may be helpful to recall investment,
whether time or money, preferably both,
implies hope for fertile outcomes.
Just as science emerged from nature-spirit religious system investments,
to become an independent,
yet also interdependent, anthrocentric learning system,
so too religious experience emerged from eco/geometric rhythmed
philosophically rich words about why continuing cooperative phenomena feel
and think
and taste of richer healthy nutrition,
and discontinuous-competing distrustful phenomena
speak of hate and mutual disgust and anger and fear of godless eternal wilting starvation stink and death
in hellfires of solar great transitional climate regeneration.

God of Healthy Climates

God is a self-perpetuating
self-referencing
self-reiterative
self-regenerative verbal climate.

NotNot God is a timeless self-perpetuating climate
transcending extremes of climaxing health
and devolutionary pathology,
embracing
warmly and coldly
all mindbodies in-between.

AnthroSpecies’ sacred intelligence of recreating
evolving
incarnating God as our own climatic images,
capable of forecasting weather and atmosphere
and ice-melts and ozone depletions and repletions,
with empathy breathing internal mental unhealthy paranoia climates,
personal ecopolitical concerns issuing in through our senses,
breathing out through Earth’s co-empathic climates
of healthy ecotherapeutic days
and dualdark melting inferno futures.

NotNot God is climate health and pathology,
Within Yin and without Yang,
as anima-shadow below
so animus above burning rays of SunGod
heating and cooling Gaia’s human infestation,
recreating Her humane incarnation,
or so we multiculturally hope and climatically pray
and play and recreate.

Each AnthroSelf of God lives within two health climate frames
of ego-political performance,
an internal climate,
sometimes health-investing in thrifty cooperative therapies,
and an external ecopolitical climate,
sometimes too competitively stingy
to coinvest in our shared EarthTribal health,
preferring to hoard nature’s empty-caloric chump change climate
of dissonant ticking, clicking, counting, hiding despair.

Wealthier sacred sustaining liturgical incarnations
more likely evolve within fully co-invested Gods and Goddesses
of ecopolitical healthy climates.

Answers with Questions

“There ain’t no answer. There ain’t going to be any answer. There never has been an answer. That’s the answer.” Gertrude Stein

Because there ain’t no question.
There ain’t going to be any question.
There never has been a question.
That’s the question, why?

Because there ain’t no answer.
There ain’t gonna be no answer.
Never was an answer.
That’s my answer.
Because.

Empathy grows body chemistry for asking Why.
Trust responds with mind’s body therapy
for responding Because.

Antipathy grows WhyNot questions.
Deeply learned distrust responds with pathology,
Because not for me,
of me,
by me,
with me,
like me,
in me,
near me–
nearly universal assumption strings of mutual hate immunity.

CoEmpathic love evolves chemistry for inviting Why and WhyNot.
Political trust emerges therapeutic resonant resolutions
