Trusting Peace

The organic building of a coordinated artist
begins with reconstructing competitively clumsy LeftBrain technicians.

Whether learning to play the piano
or learning to communicate in some new language,
learning to adopt
or adapt
norms and nuances of some novelty,
human nature starts, and started, with Elder RightBrain
inducing autonomic pre-programmed neurosystemic receptivity
pre-historic
pre-verbal
pre-anthropological
embodied inside/outside resonance v dissonance
triggering changes in attraction/distraction
feeling/touch
taste/smell
pleasure/displeasure
and, eventually,
as plants evolved persons,
sight/sound.

Fluid inducted feelings, to this day,
in these developing anthropocentric bodies,
evolve toward deductively remembered,
articulatable thoughts

Reductively decomposing complex multisensory memories
of ancient communion communication resonance
and discommuning discommunication dissonance
we notice in commensurable neurosystemic experiences
including preverbal mammalian
attracted in some positive co-empathic way,
inviting further transgenerationally trans-speciated trust.

But, stumbling across a personally anomalous situation,
ambiguously felt,
having become historically aroused by novelty
we may trust due to anticipating received resonance
or distrust due to anxiously perceived dissonance

Moving toward aggressive competitions
too loud, stinky, unsightly, unsavory, threatening
to ignore in some risk-tolerant way,
falling short of co-passion
anticipating trusted rewards
engaging win/win positive co-intelligent
communicating relationships.

From positive trust expansions
and from negatively threatening attritions,
our deductive LeftBrain builds categories
of neurosystemic patterns
to reduce organic mystery’s holistic gestalt
into cause-effect history
recycling spiraling parts and portions
proportions and distortions
appropriations and malpropriations

Until we can personally predict
to our win/win
win v lose
lose/lose hypostatic satisfaction,
and sometimes hypnotizing horror,
how to regenerate/degenerate
novel trusted/distrusted/untrusted expression
within our own behavioral mindbodies

Through deliberate,
step by discrete sequential step,
memorizing cognitive performance technique until this new pattern,
novel sequence of embodied rhythms
integrates into an interdependently cooperative
inside/outside resonant engagement

Becoming “second nature”
internalized,
as ingrained by neurosystemic trust
as smelling our way back home.

But, this second nature,
after learning to perform a love song
also becomes a resonantly engaging emotive narration

While a hate story,
the kind you might hear in a military boot camp
and a fear-triggering revival tent,
feels dark
disengaging ballistic trauma

Multigenerational RightBrain systemic trauma
venomously screams threats at anyone mistrusted
as hostile to our ego-defensive self
in some disturbingly unenlightened way

Becoming incorporated into Left v Right Brain
reiterative oppositional
discommunicating absence of positive trusting flow.

Technically learned performance
moves from LeftBrain dominant cognitive minds
toward RightBrain-inductive co-arising bodies
of “second nature” expression,
nonverbal communication
preferentially activating already mastered
behavioral-affective neurosystemic constellations
of interior/exterior resonant activity,
as naturally engaging as writing
with your right dominant hand,
yet recessively potentiated
to bilaterally relearn
drawing scrawling left hand
re-associated literary performance.

Given all the above,
when and why would becoming a violent aggressor
become an ego-acceptable,
LeftBrain deductive dominant choice
of encultured instinctive response to “non-kin”
as opposed to “not yet kin”?

How would one become attracted to,
and sustained by,
becoming a dissonance-creating and expanding bully,
an aggressor against potentially invasive aliens,
parasites,
pests,
sinners,
criminals

You have not ever personally met
exhibiting threatening behavior
toward yourself,
or those you already perceive as “kin”?

It seems that terrorism and bullying
might also be rabidly aggressive behavioral-affective distrusting patterns
which can be as competitive communication contagious
as cooperative trust
in healthier patterns of extending win/win anticipation together
rather than thrusting and parrying apart.

In Win/Win nonzero-sum reiterative Compassionate Communication Theory,
and in feminist cooperative eco-political Reproduction Theory,
learning resonant-positive nurturing behavioral norms
anticipates mutual trust outcomes

Win/Win bilateral inside-ego/outside-eco equivalence
that normatively anticipates pay-it-forward more of the same
as long as everyone follows Left-Right confluent
behavioral-affective Golden Rule mature trust patterns
toward mutually compassionate “second nature” norms.

What positively engages Elder brainstem “first nature”
is profoundly matriarchal-cooperative
mind-trust ethotic ownership
AND body-lust erotic governance
except under Win v Lose survival pressures
of past anxiety triggering experience
as environmentally re-membered
re-presented
re-vived
and not repaired.

It is here
in anomalous primordial seas
of survival of the “I Win so You Lose” fittest
where might makes dissociated ego’s narcissistically right
to survive today

Despite anxious bodies knowing
that performing hostilities by accessible aggressive means
predicts more of the actively distrusting same,
or even more
escalating risk of loss tomorrow.

But, this is not normative
“first [original matriarchal-love] nature”
just as it is not first-nurture-trust,
for if zero-sum survivalist toxicity
were our AntiGolden Rule primordial soup
from which we arrived at this time on Earth,
then human LeftBrain dominant nature
could never have evolved
decompositional cognitive technique at all.

Declaring private, or outrageously public, wars
against alien terrorists
is a traumatically compromised zero-sum choice
to play a negative Lose-incaste Life and Lose-outcaste Life Game
of despairing distrust

Unjustified and unrighteous terrorism
provoked by the chronic anxiety perception
no tolerable mistrust option has been diplomatically learned
throughout anthropocentric history
that we have not yet maturely and responsibly tried.

The zero-sum “I must win” so “You must lose” of Either-Or bottom-line
caste-preserving capitalism,
with a preference for competitive LeftBrain performance
rather than cooperative RightBrain engagement,
is an inhumane economic
and demonic caste-supremacist political choice
still denying opportunities to extend our first-nature
trust-nurturing
neurosystemic health
and environmental feelings
smells
tastes
touched by sacred EarthMother’s safety.

Integrating Ecology and Psychology for Global Resilience

I’m reading The Evolving Self:
A Psychology for the Third Millennium,
by Czikszentmihalyi,
and How the West [sadly] Came To Rule:
The Geopolitical Origins of Capitalism,
Alexander Anievas and Kerem Nisanciogla
at the same time.

Czikszentmihalyi (C) wears academic labels of Positive Psychology,
interested in why and when and where
our neurosystemic psyche’s do cooperatively flow best,
and when our upper-caste preserving ego identities are more likely to get in the way
of resilient mental happiness,
a poly-empathic cobinary bliss zone.

Anievas and Nisconciogla (A&N), well, it’s complicated,
but Anievas wears a political scientist label,
and is interested in why and when and where differentiated economic and political forces are more competitively successful,
winning intercontinental history’s weaponized
ecosystemic trauma,
triggering further violent
dispassionate
unpleasant
and monotheistically unfortunate anthropocentrism.

This ecopolitical irreligious story unfolds
unevenly empowered by resilient polycultural resonance,
regenerative communications between healthy land
and prospering human associations
favoring multiculturally curious
eumemically (inter-religiously) positive
neuro-normative passion/pleasure
mind/body integrity

At least within our more Earth-matriarchal/Anthro-child
positive-associative healthcare home front
of transgenerational inter-religious development,
formation

Win omni-sentient Anthro-Mind neurosystemic peace
by co-passionate Gain-System strategizing
to resiliently Win
omni-pleasing EarthBody ecosystemic pleasure,
interdependently matriarchal
familial
and/or beloved tribal,
and/or democratically ecopolitical
monoculture-abolishing
creolization systems.

Here, international power relations
are less likely to grow up
and blow up
to become the proud military-capital invested parents
of our own internal winner v loser prodigal children,
human-caste elites stuck in preserving defensive evolution,
resisting neuro-offensive win v lose chronic devolution,
against synergetic wealth of non-elite sentient beings.

It remains unclear whether these Western Winners might have chosen to optimize more inclusive West/East and North/South bihemispheric meta-strategic Win/Wins
by leading with cooperative ecopolitical co-empathic trust
in interdependent organic safety
and sacred GaiaMother’s inter-religious web
of pronoia life co-operative neuro/eco-systemic belonging

Just as this is often unclear within our day-to-day anthro-family feuds,
or even the egoLeft-ecoRight bicameral battles
written across each ethotic-erotic
thought-safe/felt-belonging
Peace Warrior human heart.

I start wondering if C’s co-arising forces of Me v We ego-differentiation
within SafeSelf-with-BelongingOther pronoia flow
win/win strategic health-system opulence could,
on a wider, more geopolitical, scale,
be dynamically equivalent to A&N’s uneven Us v Them
geo-political maturation
within potentially integral
polyculturally associative
win/win pronoia strategic
polyculturing inter-religious prosperity,
ebbing and flowing internationally enlightened
and intercontinentally empowering trends
toward democratic-rich
caste-abolishing nurturance.

Appositional cobinary nondualism is at work in Yang force
midway appositional balancing,
rather than oppositionally opposing, Yintegral pronoia flow,
NorthWest monopolistic caste-preservation
patriarchal dominance
reserved for neurosystemic anthro-survival strategies
within ecosystemic normative thrival

Whole Open EcoSystemic
compassionate neuro-communication strategies

health/wealth compassionate communication
inter-religious win/win
Gaia-womanist
neuro-strategic positive eumemic
international democracy
intercontinental pronoia
compassionate communications
cobinary ethoticYang/eroticYin
co-intelligent peace development.

RightBrain felt multisensory intuition
could be an important resource
for Positive NeuroPsychology’s health-nurturing flow patterns
and resonant belonging rhythms
toward AnthroMe/EarthTribe-We
sacred/organic
ethotic/erotic
safe-purpose/deep-belong-meaning
co-redemptive symbiosis,
co-empathic healthy-ethos/loving-eros trust
extending ecopolitically warm
unconditionally democratic wealth.

In this time of urgent need to improve climate health,
rather than adding further pathological Yang LeftDominant
NorthWestern monotheistic aggressions,
Gaia Hypothesis evolution’s positive eumemic development i
invites healing through Yin-integrative resource flow,
reconnecting neuro/eco-therapeutic interdependent networks,
revolving our ego v eco
inside-anthro v outside-EarthTribe
deep multigenerational learning YangEgo humility
to more fully sustain
Yin’s eco-climate flow
tranquility.

Another approach,
also ending in whatever outside,
but not caste-under, “eco” means to you,
whether outside ego or home or Rome or religion or party
or even anthropocentric worship of capital-engorged purpose itself,
is to notice that anthro-dissociative history,
decontextualized from GaianEarth associative mystery,
is inside-Yang dominant

And Yin-RightBrain feels only through dialects of relationship.
The search for Yang/Yin balance is, in this sense,
a search for ecopolitical domestic Left/Right cobinary
eco-justice with neuro-peace flow harmony

Intergenerationally learned
and resonantly sustained
by the daily non-event miracles
of nonhistory’s matriotically integral evolutions
of sustained revolving climate health
continuing to struggle with monocultural
AnthroSentient upper-caste
negative militaristic and competing capitalistic
Win v Lose
ethos-egoMind v eros-ecoBody
eumemic wrongs
of Anthropocene-Monotheistic Western
climatic caste-preserving pathology.

This does not say,
nor imply,
that gender dissociative climates
and racial dissociative climates
and weaponized aggression climates
and economic competition climates
are all the same caste difference.
Nor does this suggest one is more desecrating than the other.
That would be a YangDominant process of construct differentiation.

Needed now, for multicultural polypathic deep learning,
are Yintegrity’s climate-transforming solidarities
regeneratively guiding AnthroCulture/EarthClimate
inter-religiously interdependent health
away from upper v lower caste pathologies,
both neuro-psychological and geo-political.

Every SacredEarth Relationship Changes

  1. Everything changes and ends,
    reports Richo mindfulness

To which Ohcir co-responds,
including positive co-arising
intention.

  1. Relationships do not always come and go
    according to unconditional warm
    co-invested appreciation,
    when we fail to bicamerally resonate
    together brilliantly resilient
    therapeutic co-empowerment.
  2. Secularized anthrosupremacist life
    is not always fair
    healthy
    safe,
    much less panentheistically cherished.
  3. Pain is part of evil loss
    and win/lose trauma,
    lose/lose drama
    is part of degenerative
    dogmatic death,
    as e-v-i-l survivalism
    reverses l-i-v-e mindful
    ReStore EarthJustice
    thrivalism.
  4. People,
    and other organic creatures,
    are not liberally loving
    and conservationally loyal
    and appropriately lusty
    all the time,
    unlike trauma-free dogs
    and healthy MotherTrees
    thriving in wealthy
    EarthTribal forests.

Sacred CoInvestments

Rebuilding bipartisan explorations,

And secular monopolistic pains

Neither pleasure/pain felt body
nor thoughtful mind
without sacred

Deeply and resiliently listen
for what Other most loves,
cherishes
of their own personal experiences
of relationship
communication
integrity,
bipartisan pleasure
in ego-partisan penance,
release

While absence of relationship,
excommunication
and disintegration
fade distantly apart.

If Other is able,
And when you mindfully become
a deep empathic
nonpartisan compassionate

researcher,
analyzer,

empath,
transcendently liberated-conservational
ego/ecosystemic

Then democracy trusting you
might find oppositional defiant
menacing republican capitalist Other
also feels safe enough
to more vulnerably disclose
how Republicans too
have been traumatized
by win/lose
LeftBrain dominant
privileged thoughts
without organic EarthTribe
peak experience memories,

win/win co-passionate imagination

By learning to listen for

and sacred dance
negative dissonant
capital loss
religiously re-engaging positive resonant
communion gain
through cooperative
bipartisan
bihemispheric
bilateral
binomially co-invested
peak co-infestment Tao experience,
contextually informed
EarthTribe trauma prevention.

Reds,
similar to Greens,
remember Golden Rule
deep compassionate listening,
feeling,
trembling for a multicultural
multigenerationally transcendent compassion
universally unitarian
warm unconditional passion experience

Appreciation for shared EarthPeace
world views of Others
shared across significant subcommunities
invoking sacred
peaceful
democratic trust

In positive health
supporting republican EarthPatriotic wealth
among fellow win/win
good-humored multicultures

Pray together
for less Win/Lose survivalist
trauma-tumored monocultures.

Well-educated
and drop-out AnthroSupremacists
would spread our minds
and bodies wide
for standing firmly
on ecofeminist MotherEarth

With both secular and sacred
monopolistic and pantheistic
natural and spiritual
body and mind

UnAppreciated Americans

Our President
here at the local nonpartisan association
also appreciates Americans
he has never met
or heard
or smelled

Not to mention out to get
never ever tasted,
at least without informed consent,
or vulnerably seen
or transparently felt
with copassioned
trauma-free intent,
yet not actually met,
just yet

And
I am confused
that our President would feel
he needs to say this,
as if appreciating Americans
were a partisan platform
advocating politically
and economically unusual
universal health
and safe global wealth
resiliently inclusive policy priorities

Sacredly patriotic
EcoMatriotic regard
for nutrition-based

poly/mono-culturing
cooperative/competing
wu-wei YintegralPower/YangLight

transubstantiating neuro-sensory

I readily concede
I could be wrong
but I can at least imagine
Donald Trump
feeling and believing,
although jaded
disappointed
and dispassionately,
that he appreciates
all those NonWhite
NonStraight
NonPatriarchal EcoFeminists
he has never met

And would just as soon
not change his monopolistic bliss
to CounterCulturally encounter Othering
dark ignorance,
just yet.

I don’t know if it is a positive
or negative coronary corollary
to further extend
this metaphoric analogy

Yet Trump,
unlike Biden,
could never get
a multiculturally gifted American
he has not yet met

But I would bet
it would be hard to vet
EarthTribe residents
too healthy to ever regret
not having had the pleasure
of meeting many Trumpian Americans

Cold greetings
likely best to forget
we all come from somewhere

Matriarchally sacred
as an interdependent
health care safety net
includes imaginatively appreciating

All those Others Othering
unfertilized good eggs,

Sinning Saints Once More

When I was in seminary
my spiritual director advised me to notice,
as had he,
that there are two kinds of:

Clergy

Those who understand their calling
as to coldly forgive
and heatedly challenge
all bedeviled sinners

And those who feel called to mentor
gods and goddesses
and all transgender images in-between
to warmly engage
and repeatedly comfort
all divinely endowed
panentheistic
Holy Spirited saints.

Lay Leaders

Those who live for a vacation
from telling Others why they must not do
whatever trauma-afflicted compulsion
we might feel addictively drawn toward

And those whose felt sacred vocation
is to communicate compassionately with Others
to therapeutically understand
what we would most love to be
and become
co-invested in ego-health
and ecosystemic-wealth
re-associatively together

Unconditionally regarding
both categories of Clergy
and Ego/EcoTherapeutic Lay Leaders
and All PolyCultural EarthTribal Creatures,
verbally dominant
and nonverbally
co-passionately prominent

Comforting the nonverbally afflicted
more than verbally afflicting
the too win/lose oppressed
survivalist
StraightWhiteCorporateMale
Business As Usual
RightWing Evangelical
anti-ecofeminist gospel truth
is Holy Spirit anathema
comfortable
with cognitive/affective chronic
bicameral dissonance.
