We believe in truths we empathically
ecopolitically
humanely
nutritionally trust.
We grow therapeutic faith in empathic trusts
too peacefully pregnantly beautiful
to not become true, one day,
this day, if at all possible.
We actively distrust those competing truths
within potentially cooperative powers
we multiculturally love to hate.
We can not not believe in/with ecological truths
of/for
deeply etched nutritionally resonant trusts.
If we assume Earth, including Anthros,
is biosystemically fully invested in cooperatively healthy climate systems
and disinvesting away from dissonating and unstable toxins,
what each of us believes and disbelieves in
becomes more a question
of what and whom we ecopolitically/ecologically believe and disbelieve with.
So here’s my big insight.
My two cents worth,
which will remain worth only a penny
unless it somehow aligns with your penny
for thoughts and shared feelings.
What if we put our human nature genie
back in Earth’s home-nature bottle?
OK, already I hear Fundamentalists about the great transcendent Sacred Divide
between humanity and monkeys and trees,
and even more so between human biosystems
and any generic ecosystem,
like a river,
or four growing seasons
in a regeneratively nutritious healthy year.
But, if you could just hang in there for a minute
or two
and let yourself wildly imagine theoretical implications
of looking conjecturally at all of creation as one integral Creating Nature;
as a Thought Experiment, maybe?
Just pretend you’re following along in Einstein’s brilliant kind of heuristic exercise.
Enjoy your ride a bit more.
We’ll get back to the Cross and the Ballistic Terrorist Terrors later.
Maybe a lot later.
So we have one united, more or less, nature
and now we have two words sharing a prefix,
rooted in the concept of “home” or “household”,
economics,
the study of human value transactions, expansions,
recessions,
stalemates,
monopolies,
competitive rabidity and cooperative gift-nutrition-forward rhythms
and seasonal patterns.
Then we have this newer word, ecology,
for the study of nutritional through pathological relationships,
transactions,
weedish monocultural eruptions,
empathic trusts and mistrusts and mutually immune distrusts
within Nature’s ecosystemic organic health lives
and deaths of history.
Yes, you see where my natural organic mindbody is going with this.
In that no one seems quite clear about just what economic science does
very well,
that could not also apply to ecological systems more generically,
maybe if human nature is just…you know,
a slightly demented portion of Earth’s econature,
then we might regain an important clue
about our “home team” ecological nutritional
and eco-dissonant pathological value exchange patterns
and rhythms.
All this, by simply remembering that ecosystems
gave evolutionary-historical-cultural progenitive birth
to biosystems,
including AnthroTribe,
as divine Light gave birth to humane Word.
So ecosystemic development
is also egosystemic healthy wealthy regenerative development,
or ego-suboptimizing degenerative under-development,
sweeping across enculturation’s history
of redundant multicultural languages
and side-by-side specialist paradigms.
And, now we can all just learn to cooperatively get along
and live happily
and healthily ever after.
Good.
I feel better.
My job here is done.
I can rest in ecosystemic peace and quasi-justice.
Honey,
unplug the phone
and fire up the hibachi.
Let’s grill sweet corn and vegeburgers.
And, by the way,
you remember what Bill Maher said about THC
“What? They’re afraid we’ll be smarter than we really are?”
Well,
I wonder if that’s similar to why an economist might resist thinking
of ones’ AnthroSelf as an ecologist wanna-be,
but only studying the elephant’s capital-mind-head investments,
as opposed to a full nutritional mindbody analysis,
because if eco-normists were expected to confine their scientific conjectures
to ecological-evolutionary models,
then they might be smarter about forecasting the future cooperative values
of sustainable WinWin health-power
than is your average MedicinePower Person.
I’m frankly not sure what these two insights have to do with each other,
but it seemed to make sense to my goldfish,
who just upped and died
with a smile on her face,
so we grilled that golden ruled ecosystem too.
I’m sure that’s what she would have wanted,
but primarily because,
had our situations been reversed,
that would have been my highest and best
nutritious recycling baptism-dream as well.
Radicals of PostMillennial Zeroism,
like Fundamental-Basic PreMillennial Taoism:
Yang presents unmitigated monopolistic political omnipotence.
Yin hides totally purged (recessed)
economic flat-line absence of positive nutritional flow trend,
omni-polypathic nonpresent exformed.
Just as Nature abhors these primal vacuums of appositionality,
there is no such thing as either of these two extremities,
just as there is no such thing as YangSpace
without Yin’s bilaterally evolving notpast-notfuture NOW time.
And, their divinely humane ecopolitical stage
balances MidWay Wu Wei
issuing advent of M.L. King’s (et. al.)
Beloved Climaxing Cooperative Community,
Family,
EarthTribe,
and any other polypathic ecological system
we might care to nondually and multiculturally co-arise together.
Our new democratic-plutocratic healthy wealth
of Zero-Soul-Sum-Core-Axial-Integral ecopolitical revolutions.
He awoke won but foggy morning
with a benignly felt Conjecture:
Positive Psychology
is also Political-Economic Health Projection
Cognitive truth statements (+)
feel aesthetically beautiful,
proportional.
Theorem (-,-) as not not Conjecture
False relational and transactional anti-reality
unreasonable absence of good faith,
feels aesthetically chaotic,
dissonant,
distorted,
arhythmic,
unpatterned,
notnot information
having merely potential co-empathic
co-arising powers in some future or past time
that could not possibly be now;
ex-formation.
Conjectures co-arise Theorems
as Theorems prove/disapprove
(0)riginating Conjectures
as Left languaged Brain
co-arises Right Brain’s notnot balancing co-empathic feelings:
trust (+1) binary Tao-sync with (-0),
mistrust (0),
active distrust (-,-) mutual immunity to conjectured truth-value statement.
Empathic Trust conjoins healthy political co-arising relationships
and eco-normic, or ecological, nondual transactions
between Left Conjecture and Right-Proportioned-Patterned Theorems,
while
Cognitive Dissonance enjoins further confrontation,
chronic stress heading toward climatic distress
between Left/Right Balancing Conjectural Theorems
discontinuously evolving benign political-economic identity
confluent with healthy EarthTribe minds and bodies.
Healthy truth slow-grows trust
or revolutionary bust
of collectively incarnated conjecture bubbles.
Gratitude
A co-empathic sense of trust,
awe,
appreciation of echo-resonant
deep-listening resolving life.
Gratitude
Autumnal enthymematic taproot of spring-hope,
just as summer’s nutritional maturation
unfolds Origin of fertile decompositional mindfulness.
Gratitude
Why Thich Nhat Hanh thinks it important to smile
nutritiously.
Why Positive Deviance works.
Why Positive Psychology works and plays truths with beauty.
Why regenerative political discernment leads
healthier cooperative outcomes
polyculturally maturing
by monoculturally self-governing balancing networks
landscapes.
Mutual Gratitude
diastolically opens toward agapic/erotic love,
provokes lasting happiness and contentment
while sustained in a culture too often neglecting
more cooperatively embraced and active entertainments.
Necessary and sufficient,
requited,
for fulfilling mindful AS healthy sustainable physical life.
Gratitude
Respect for Earth’s grace,
and sustained Mutual Commons Place
leads through hope and toward summer’s full faith,
toward fall’s harvest of love and bliss;
where We Are One,
and prepare Winter’s cycle of hibernating Oneness
in Yin’s recessive advent,
facing toward Spring’s new birth.
When our intent chooses gratitude
practice becomes centered in mindfulness,
ecoconsciousness.
When intent is co-mindful reiterative modeling,
co-mentoring,
our mutually regenerative practice
loves life as grateful love ourselves,
Zero-sum economizes grace.
Becoming grace
requires balancing ecology of Nutritional Yang DeductiveCausaLaws
with Love’s Yin InductiveAffectiveGrace.
These nondual two are inextricably dipolar linked
as are noticing hope with understanding faith,
yang and yin,
leading, balancing together
toward political/economic health assurance comprehension.
Yin’s Grace whispers of hope for a meeting of minds.
To build Yang’s value,
resonance,
develop mindfulness,
sing and dance
pray and speak our story,
our history of nutritional laws of nature
with love’s grace of spirit,
with gratitude for all those whose voices ring
reverberate
in our ears and minds as bodies.
Gratitude
for autumn’s forest falling seed,
inoculating our soils with hope
to be held,
secure,
through winter’s politically competitive economy of cold discontent,
decomposition.
Winter brings purgative Advent of dormant hope
without current incarnation of embryonic faith,
which returns to 4-seasoned Earth each reborn Spring
of daily life.
This same gratitude enthymematic seed-root of Positive Deviance,
Appreciative Inquiry,
Basic Attendance,
CoEmpathic Political Trust
between pilgrims traveling Earth’s empathic consciousness
of life and death revolutions,
regenerating compost piles of truth as beauty memories.
Gratitude
A graced gestalt,
informed contrast with a nutritional law
of insufficient absorption
into ego-proprietor value-based gestalt,
either-or,
Win-Lose,
healthy-toxic affect.
Mindfulness
balances a bicameral cooperative grace thriving economy
with our midway TrimTab value
optimizing political survival economy.
This karma/grace gestalt
comprehends OurCommons
as EarthHome Network
to which we equally belong responsibly authoritative
more profoundly,
naturally,
truthfully,
realistically,
sustainably,
normatively,
ethically
than understanding this Commons
of Earth-Air-Water-Firey flames of information
as property we own,
instruct,
dominate,
enslave,
commodify,
and even lecture with great confusion sometimes.
We do no good presenting our best political-economic lectures
while standing empty-handed in our favorite garden
or forest
or mountain or sea or lake
or home;
far better still to listen to these speak their grace
across grateful ears and eyes and nose and mouth,
to know where we might best begin with bicameral hands
and bipedal vocational feet.
Deep Ecology of Gratitude
growth in depth of regenesis,
an economy of nutritional materialism
co-mentoring bodies of graceful co-ownership
through value transfers with other enculturations present,
past and future sentient beings
at their cooperative GiveGraceForward expansive expense,
co-invested interdependent multigenerational
benign parasites
disguised as nakedly benign Hosts.
To comprehend this EarthCommons
calls to listen,
with gratitude,
and thereby increase in mindfulness of abundant comprehensive potential,
graceful loving SpiritYin
with nutritional YangNature’s Laws and Primal Principles
of eco-balancing reciprocity.
Pronoia’s Paradise of CoEmpathic Trust
is what happens in
and on
and as a holonic soul of
Earth
when we expect,
anticipate,
the absence of Business As Usual (BAU) Paranoia.
Paranoia is the mutual suffering in fear
and concomitant chronic anger management
and ambivalent self-hatred
of LeftBrain dominant
anthrocentric-languaged enculturation,
non-expectation,
absence of active RightBrain agapic love
for Pronoia,
an EarthTribe originally intended
with co-empathic political, economic,
as ecologically bilateral trust.
EarthTribe’s Pronoia Cooperative
conducting relationships and transactions of Basic Trust Attendance,
as empathic faith anticipated within mental health itself,
the Positive Psychology progenitor of Gratitude.
Gratitude for Earth’s kindness
is the belief/feeling medicine,
Moose/Owl Medicine,
for arriving in Pronoia internal paradise.
The larger landscaped challenge for us
is how to arrive in Beloved Communities of Pronoia Paradise,
Basic Trust Cooperatives (BAC),
rather than continuing on so much with BAU,
monopolistic anti-trusts.
For this,
we would best Pay-Gratitude-Forward,
actively love the positives you can hunt and gather today,
plant and harvest for tomorrow,
to starve the BAU negative cultural weeds
of competing Paranoias in yourself,
as in Other.
Both states of becoming are highly co-empathic,
and therefore autonomically contagious,
but paranoia feeds on anger, fear, and hate,
while pronoia feeds on good humor, beauty, and co-empathic ecologic,
(0)-balanced dipolar co-arising political/economic trust,
anticipation of pregnant Earth’s richly fertile,
fluid,
nearly timelessly reincarnating possibilities
for even further polypathic integrity
of becoming
evolving TaoTime OurSelves.
So let us say Grace together
by sharing our complex responses
to “Who are you?”
List your magical powers
and scratches and dents of suffering character,
lost opportunities to have become someone else,
comprising who you are so far,
your conjoining toward this climatic time and place
of co-celebrating grace
you bring to us,
and we bring to you,
this banquet of mutually pronoiac feeding
on who we are becoming
gracious nutrients,
this meal of pronoiac communing on grace ourselves
and what grace has brought to this table
this day,
this now,
this incarnation of co-empathic divinely gorgeous trust
in Earth’s fertile conspiracies of kindness.
I would ask Earth to not so relentlessly unwrap Her timeless dark veil.
Yet what risk of depressing our healthiest outcomes
should wishes always incarnate
restless religious and political empire-building dreams
of anthro-omnipotence?
Why could mortal incarnation
not emerge from immortal timeless Elders
like infancy coarising through final notes
of pregnant requiems,
like Earth regenerate born
of degenerating Sun’s warm embryonic womb.
I would ask timeless passage from this fertile time
unfolding between my history
and EarthTribe’s future therapeutic cooperators,
logistical statements following ecological principles
as variables are notnot constantly
internally stretching toward ecosystemic nature/spirit balance.
I had feared Earth might not so flirtatiously unwrap
Her dualdark coarising veil of Time’s great revolutions
within each Ego,
within each species,
within each Space,
time binomially unfolding
dipolar boundary issues
pointing their wu wei toward more resonant resolutions of eco-abundant life
as ego-absent death.
If yang translates as powerful deep learning,
then yin might transform into wide-flows of polyculturally polypathic loving.
They work best in mutually defining balance.
