Just Say Yes

Just say yes
to not yet gone
not yet going against your way
not yet becoming distrusted distasteful dissonance.

Those of us more blessed in the Positive Psychology department,
and yet perhaps all of us somewhat more opaquely,
enjoy qualities of life that we all do want,
and an equal number of negative appositional qualities
that we would do better without.
These are, by definition,
and by comparison with their more positive counterparts,
pathological,
as confluence is to discover dissonance,
as integrity grows to uncover late-great decompositional transitions,
as healthy climates recover from comparatively compromised unhealthy subclimates.

We all want more beauty
so less ugly.
We want more good
and less bad.
More truth
so less equivocating untruths.
We all want more healthy places and spaces and times
and paradigms
so less pathology of mind and heart and soul and body,
distresses of internal climates.

We all want cooperative economic and political relationships
and less rabid competing and terror
distrust and hatred.
We all want more power-with
so less power-over;
or do we?

We all want neither too much
nor too little.
We all want our self-optimizing time delivered neither too late
nor too soon.
These function as a prime-relational fractal of temporal double-bind,
wu-wei Tao Tipping Point
of (0)Zen mutually shared SpaceTime wants,
with their counterpart not-wants,
natures both kind and unkind humored.

We all want more peaceful order
so less stressful chaos now,
and to stay with us forever,
neither too soon nor too late,
but just rightly positive balanced
on tipping point of eternal now.

We all want
not too soon with not too late
quality of time,
as not too much and not too little Basic Nutritional Space
within Earth’s timeless co-present sacred place.

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.

Christ and Laotse

A Tao (0)Mega Tipping Point Zen-Christ
could become no better or worse than your own spiritual experiences
of your own bicameral mindbody of Christianity.
These Christ-icons are all made of the same LeftBrain yeast
becoming fully diastatic bread
becoming RightBrain’s fully diastatically Beloved Community Body.

Jesus of Nazareth
was neither the first nor last
to recognize both Self and Other
as bread of life
sun of life
light of life
son/daughter of life
words of life
yeast of life
body of life
body and blood of life.

On the other hand
Laotse may have been the first and last
to see Self within syncretically enculturing ElderOther
dipolar yeast health-diastolic,
avoiding more static flat-line pathologies.

Tao of Yang body-life
reverse-facing double notnot humored YinYin
wu wei’s flow of diastatic ego-death,
reproduces a great deal of in-between cognitive-affective dissonance,
so the devil appears within details
inscrutable Eastern nondual co-arising ecometric politics of namaste,
LeftBrain Western enculturation dominance
tolerates, with chronic stress irritations,
all our yeasty Taos
of full 7-Grain Sabbath Breads of Life
longing to conjoin
in and through Beloved Spirit-Natured Communities.

I suppose a Jewish therapist
deeply immersed within the Torah,
reading words of Jesus
in the first three gospels
might easily imagine these the teachings
of an often depressed schizophrenic
with compulsive self-obsession
as a sacrificial lamb
living in an unredeemed economy,
but this sidesteps sacred truths,
yeast does transubstantiate diastolically through organic bodies,
a positively deviant virus becoming fertile nutritional commodities
for anthrocentrically benign-as-healthy
wealthy evolving purposes,
preferences,
norms,
traditions,
etching yet evolving through yeasty regenerations
of self-redeeming health with beauty generations.

If the original primal Christian intent
was also the Tao of Self+Other ecoconscious
egocentric sacrifice to (0)Zen Center,
then Jesus of Nazareth was also transubstantiating
Eastern nondual co-arising ecology of nature-spirit mindbodies
into Jewish sacred organic ecopolitically correct sheepish language.

But, this inquisition about
humane icons with divinely evolving spirit-souls,
each holonically RNA/DNA integrative-proportional-relational
instructions for a folding
unfolding
refolding
prefolding fractal Universe of organic health becoming
continues within each living cell’s core rooting system,
each yeasty plasmatic culture,
each health v pathology subclimate
with four equivalent seasons,
trinitarian LeftBrain traces
across bilaterally eternal co-present notpast/notfuture
RightBrain time.

Elder RightBrains never die,
they simply enter and exit deep erotic/agapic sleeps,
co-arising positives as notnot quite so much is more.

Sacred Ecology Channel

“…a network.., in the local [RightBrain] language,
is called ‘mandala’.
I’m more [LeftBrain] comfortable
with the word ‘ecology,’
but they’re very closely overlapping ideas.
At the root,
is the notion that ideas [like energy and climates] are interdependent,
interacting, that ideas [unlike regenerative climates,
organic nutritional processes
like evolutions of
Earth and Ego and Anthro Creation Stories] live and die.
The ideas [with co-arising negative feelings of distrust
as cognitive-affective dissonance]
that die do so
because they don’t fit with the others.
[Until they do; then they’re called revolutionary.]
So I thought I would try to unravel for you
some of the ecology [climatology, cosmology],
something of the position and nature of the [RightBrain] ‘sacred’
in the [LeftBrain] ecological system.”
Gregory Bateson, p. 265, Sacred Unity: Further steps to an ecology of mind.

Ideas with feelings attached,
like ecological subclimates,
internal landscapes,
health/pathology-delivering nutritional systems
of ecopolitically effective/dissonant communication,
and these Self+ElderOther enculturing strings of self-optimizing RNA/DNA
can pathologically die
because they do not fit confluently
optimally
with and for and of Earth
and Her great transitioning Universe.

While many teachers and prophets,
writers and philosophers,
scientists and community public/private ecopolitical health developers,
have shown an articulate interest
in the sacred mandala
ecological climate of nature-spirit bicameral mind,
(Jaynes, Bateson, Jung, R.D. Laing, Laotse, Bucky Fuller as Convex/Concave)
most have examined economic cooperative minds without political bodies
as stand alone elephants in a laboratory room,
rather than a healthy eating and pooping economy
herding with other likely mindbodies
on and in Earth’s multiculturally complex dialectal subclimates
ranging from regeneratively nutritional
through starving stagnant purgative drought.

Political ecology of sacred organic healthy choices
and other, more high risk eisegetically competitive ideas
with their ambivalent wu wei Tippy off-centered feelings,
these, like egos,
unlike ecoRightProportion-Only TemporalMinds,
reweave life and death cycles all our own
within Earth’s multicultural healthing ecopolitical network,
mandala,
sacred integrative ecology.

Earth’s creation evolves regeneratively
because both here and there
both is and notnot is
a divine creator shadow within each and every ego
cooperatively supported
by each living cell’s prime-thermodynamic
seeking ionic/ergodic co-gravitating balance within
temporal co-present empathic/trusting climates,
rich multicultural Yangform/Yinreverse-double-bind function
dipolar tempered-humored composts
fueling healthy network sublimely cooperative
WinWin HumaneGod/dess identity trajectory,
composed of Beloved
Diastolic
Optimally Sustainable
EcoPolitical Health Communities,
Climates,
Sacred Ecologies.

Yin’s Time Greets Yang’s Space

Qualities of empowering
disempowering time
lurking within quantities of spatial powers,

We are climate changing qualities of addicting ego-time
praying for,
while preying on,
quantities of Earth’s ecopolitical powers
over Self and Other’s passing,
powers with
powers within powers,
toxic qualities of maladaptive waste and loss
evolving regenerate qualities
of positively addicting healthy-wealthy time.

Quality yin-timed climates
as yang-spaced quantities of power.

Climate Addictions v Adaptations

It appears that Feyerabend presents a more accurate normative gestalt
for RightBrain epistemological climates,
how RightBrain solves chaotic environmental puzzles,
while Popper is better for LeftBrain deduction,
diastolic evolving unfolding
of syllogistic logic.
Together evolving toward a dipolar truth
of balancing flexibiity
trending toward regenerative health optimization,
accuracy of truth meets beauty,
as yang embraces yin,
as deduction reweaves induction.

Julian Jaynes and Carl Jung
describe a redundantly held ecology of mind and body,
spirit and nature,
anima and animus as did Laotse,
each within an interdependent histo-cultural paradigmatic dialect,
or gestalt.

This interdependence may be explored
using Gregory Bateson’s mapping v referent model,
searching for WinWin health outcomes,
using ecological-fractal strictures
of seasonal folding and unfolding,
cause and effect,
primal Creation Story analogies
in geometric ecosystems with (0)-sum Tipping Points.

Buckminster Fuller
and other alchemists present dialectal patterns confluent with climate
and chemistry
and anthromorphic character dipolarities
of appositional metric self-referencing design.

This interweaving revolving architecture
of Earth’s metaphysical and physical evolution
is easier to see
from an Eastern philosophic nondual co-arising nature
as spiritual systemic polypathic universal assumption.

Bateson’s economic and ecology
and logical type epistemology
is also about generating great and small revolutions
in healthy gestalt homeostasis,
in which human mindbodies adjust within Earth’s environment.
For example,
internal acclimation is human nature’s response
to altitude change in atmospheric climates,
where initial cognitive/affective/autonomic dissonance symptoms
cause stress,
until lung-brain body resolves internal climate discord.
Flexibility refers to readjustments in Tipping Point balance
between TooMuchYang/TooLittleYin,
where Yang is Positive Polynomial
and Yin is NotNot POlynomial equi-valent balancing,
so that internal polynomial ecosystems
become once again confluent with NotNot Polynomial Earth’s climatic
effects on human Tao (0)-souled nature/spirits,
ecology of minds and bodies,
reverse analogies and correlates of Left Deductive with Right Inductive processors
of dialectal exegetical information
AND eisegetical inductive decompositional function
of prime (0)-sum thermodynamic dipolar co-arising regenerate relationship.

This might be easier to see
if Bateson had adapted Russell’s ‘higher’ logical type language
to emphasize revolutionary,
as opposed to BusinessAsUsual evolutionary
cultural day-to-day development,
climate searches for more health and less pathology
are a return to a deeper ecological balancing flexibility physiology-psychology gestalt.
Whether using ‘higher’ or ‘deeper’ is an arbitrary perspective
within any universal field of inquiry,
as Buckminster Fuller perhaps too redundantly reminded us,
unto near death.

Addiction to acclimated cultural norms, then,
is ecopolitical marginalization,
and sometimes criminalization,
rather than the more positive adaptational flexibility expected
of human nature’s kosmic evolution
on and within Earth’s RNA/DNA encrypted
(0)-soul-sum-core-eco/interest power-balance.

To be consistent,
society must yet resolve our willingness
to live with patently fascist conclusions
that all mental illness is a form of negative addiction.
And, even if so,
which seems unlikely,
then precisely how are we addicted (adapted)
to which climate pathologies
and which ecopolitical therapies
might resolve these culturally normed symptoms
of too LeftBrain dominant mental illness?

Quality Climate Changes

Quantities of time feel nothing.
Calculating, summing and subtracting,
days and weeks,
months and years and decades
roll past our eyes and ears
our growing and shrinking stomachs
to leave their strong and weak-grooved rings,
yet I only feel and remember qualities of time as co-present,
co-arising
co-gravitating
or dissonant immune reactions
of fear about time’s future qualities
anger about time’s past conflicts
burning hot bright volcano hatreds
adrenaline flowing flashes
accessible as bliss
only completely invested, immersed,
within this timeless moment,
too seldom aware of Earth’s intelligent co-present fertility
as grace dancing through our quantities of mortal metric times.

Qualities of time’s regenerate evolutions
long to feel everything belonging once again together,
as if beyond a foggy lapse of mirrored identity
this was our golden era memory
feeding on matriarchal placentas
when all felt now-ly timeless
and right
and true as good
and warm-full beauty filled.

Perhaps here lies our measure of time’s healthiest quality,
economic and political as ecologically environmental growth therapy,
surfing through this timeless now of polypathic potential consciousness
of feelings positive through negative
emerging from and for and through and in and on and over each now
submerging into past speciating
branching memories,
trees of old strong-rooted felt memory
weighed against and for our original embryonic nurturing standards
for stronger ecopolitical health
as less climatic pathology
through this eternally regenerating now.

Quality of Tao feels everyone potentially to-gathering.

Fr. Time’s Magical Investment Strategy

Here’s my deal.
I have unlimited time to invest in regenerative life,
and really no healthy climate time at all to invest in furthering overpowering pathologies
heading toward Yang-crazed terrifying rabidity.

For you, reduced to a human individual ego-identity,
the situation is exactly the same,
except you can’t see that you are also part of my virtually unlimited EarthLife Time.
I mean everything is relative, right?
so not exactly omnipotently eternal DNA-life memory time,
but, if you accept Earth’s continued existence as a life-bearing planet
as your measure of eternal life,
then certainly my timeframe is timeless,
so to speak in kosmic relativistic spacetime perspective.

I invest our time and capital in more cooperative endo/ectosymbiotic evolutionary practices,
positive climate health expectations,
synergy functions,
and regenerate rhetorical forms of life
lived together as active loving gratitude orthopraxis
of Basic Attendance steeped in NOW’s health/pathology climate potential.

Here, living positive health fully in each moment,
we rejoin Earth’s healthy Yang power-with wealthy interrelational Yin
positive ecopolitical cooperative intent to nurture health,
a more thermodynamically balanced blend of humanity
with all of Earth’s well-timed nature.

This investment policy
turns away from mediocrity
of suboptimizing Earth’s healthy/pathology climate outcomes,
re-forming Yin’s too dormantly recessive flow
leading toward ever-broadening extended familial tribalism
as contrasted to Yang’s dominating Empiricism,
Ego-Empire Building Totalitarianism,
LeftBrain-AnthroLanguaged Elitism,
standing apart from time’s incarnate evolving equality.

Yang, without Yin,
does not yet appear
and can never appear,
within health-sustaining EarthTime,
ruthlessly domesticating Anthro enslavement
to lust for economic and political power over all creation’s time,
hubris of “owning” time’s investment in bio and ecosystems
that Angry FireGod cannot reasonably hope to ever dominate.
We are, together, your Timeless God.
Apart, fundamentally separating ego from ecoconsciousness,
this level of dualistic thinking about humanity without divinity
can never hope to balance Earth’s ecopolitical health-sustaining time.

I invest immersed in Earth’s nature-spirit of cooperative Basic Attendance,
toward contractual multicultural HealthFair States of Mind,
divesting of indentured servitude of decreasingly valued commodities,
now decomposing toward yet more disposable trash
of rabid logic-fascist terrorist reductivist conclusions,
to renew Earth’s civil rights of balance,
divesting of too-Yanged civilization
through empirical enculturing ego-centric competitions
to fertilize healthier domestic events of Earth’s evolving sea
of humaning naturality
in time’s more cooperatively served development
throughout each of love life’s warm-poured moments.

That’s my DNA deal, and we’re sticking together
within/without this timelessly radical
nondualistic
co-arising investment plan.

Divine Doors Opening LeftFront and RightBack

From Pronia, by Rob Brezsny, p. 267

Neither God nor the gods are dead,
but they seem to be disappearing
because so few of us are capable of carrying on authentic relationships
[at least] with them anymore
[leaving us with just us idol
ideal
idyll
indolent
idealistic worshipers of some day our day will come].

The [reductive] materialist delusion rules:
Millions believe that nothing’s real
unless it can be perceived by the senses.
[Even so,
a rock is even more materially real
than a song written for ears to hear it.]

Churches and temples [and governing offices] are full of ethical people,
but many of them have no clue about how to know
or feel
or converse with the divine [liturgical nature-languaged] intelligences.

What can the deities do,
having been banished from our conscious knowing
[eisegetical discovery and exegetical recovery]?

Jung said they have no recourse but to worm their [our] way
into our lives as sickness and pathology.
Repressed,
they [we] come in the back [RightBrain] door.

Which of your maladies or pains might be gods
in [duressed] disguise?
How might you get them to take off their [our] masks
and begin knocking on the front [LeftBrain deductive-dipolar-co-arising-abstractive] door?
