“Religious experience
is living in solidarity [and integrity] with God
[Earth’s recreative universal (0)-sum Source].
Yet to maintain such solidarity [and integrity]
involves knowing how to [regeneratively co-a]rise,
how to cross an [polypathic deductive/inductive] abyss.
Vested [ego] interests are more numerous than locusts,
and of solidarity [integrity] of character
there is only a smattering.
Too much [ego-degenerative] devotion
is really too little.
It is grave self[ego]-deception
to assume that our [Earth-boundaried] destiny
is just to be human.
In order to be[come bicamerally balancing] human,
one must be[come holonically balancing] more than [ego] human.
A person [embodied ego] must never stand still

[s]he must always climb [reiteratively spiral].”

As I was saying,
before so rudely interrupted by the biometric economics professor,
polypathic experience
invests integrity in and with Earth’s Climate Health-Source.

“To escape from the mean and penurious [competitions],
from calculating and scheming [WinLose Gaming],
is at time the parching [integrative healthy] desire
of [ecopolitical LeftBrain Dominant] man [sic]…
Prayer [RightBrain ecoconsciousness] clarifies
our [ego/ecotherapeutic] hope and intentions.
It helps us discover our true [maturing polypathic] aspirations,
the [monoculturing] pangs we ignore,
the [multicultural] longings we forget
[to expand our ego’s monocultural identity].
It is an act of self[ego]-purification…
It [regeneratively] teaches us what [both Earth and Ego] aspire to,
implants in us the ideals we [DNA/RNA health-wealth encrypted] ought
to cherish
[with even more endo/ecto-symbiotic moral integrity
of self-optimizing ego-health
as Earth’s perduring regenerative wealth].”
[Sorry, Abraham,
my LeftBrain always has to have the last bracketed word.]
No worries.

First off,
this is not pick on George Lakoff day
because I love his Political Mind like a brother.
BUT,
yes,
you knew that was coming,
so let me change it right now
AND,
yes, much of the proletariat-patriarchal Enlightenment Era
of the 1700s was weighted toward Transcendence,
so, yes, a tendency toward disembodied,
AND YET,
if we look toward the more bourgeois-matriarchal sector,
especially all those disenfranchised women birthin’ babies,
but also other disadvantaged perspectives of Enlightenment,
these were very much about natural, healthy regenerative richness,
perhaps erotic wonder and climatic awe,
rather than some spiritual experience
more high-brow agapic,
yet no less,
perhaps even rather more,
integrative flow-abundant
embodied
co-mentored and empathically communicated
reverent and sacred enlightenment,
however democratically common
as our universal experience
of diastatic enlightenment
nurtured within a matriarchal integrative womb
rather than embryonically formed
from a patriarchal transcendent penis.
I don’t think red-neck conservative Republicans
are any less interested in,
or committed to,
or capable of,
healthy enlightening polypathic experience
than are progressive Ivy League academic Democrats,
although I do think that those who have healthier nurtured
integrative communication between LeftYang and RightYin hemispheres
are better at finding the WinWin cooperatively enlightening opportunities
while avoiding unnecessary disembodied pitfalls of WinLose choices
suboptimizing regenerative potential
to experience more positive enlightenment-flow power
rather than more cognitive-affective dissonance,
mistrusting antipathies.
These tend to be those
for whom LeftBrain enculturation dominance,
supremacy,
has been less kind than RightBrain’s matriarchal nurturance.
If you want to not only defend and secure your mental health and happiness,
but also optimize their positive capital flow-power;
If you can find sufficient motivation for one change,
and only one nature/spirit change,
then continue to assume your Right hand dominant mind
is might makes capital-invested ego-happiness right,
BUT/AND
work on equivalently presuming Left hand Yintegral sacred ecosystemic mind
is also right flows eco-healthy co-mentoring opportunities
for growing cooperatively incarnating abundance of healthy(R)happy-wealth(L).
These two, appositionally united,
rather than merely dissonant, chaotic, mis-communicating
between LeftBrain ego-dominant economic survivalism
and RightBrain eco-recessive politically organic regenerative health,
recreate embryonically-nurtured ego-force of eco-flow,
Yang/Yin ego-form of Earth-ecological-function,
POWER with CoEMPOWERING FLOW OPTIMIZATION
mindbody forms with ecopolitically strong healthy functions,
LeftEgo/Right-DNA/RNA Solidarity
human-divine
nature-spirit
balancing biosystems
of past and for future timelessly self/other optimizing cooperative
healthy(R)wealth(L).
On the other hand,
if conserving and defending your own regenerative health abundance
is of no interest,
then, never mind.
Keep on with the LeftBrain Business as Competitively Usual.
Just know that you are irrationally choosing to continue playing your economics and politics and mental health
using a pre-millennial WinLose misunderstood model of evolution
when you have available
a post-millennial WinWin ego/ecoconscious model
for continuing to defend and secure polypathic revolutions.
No pressure.
Your decision.
But you will never feel you have honestly,
with total investment integrity, decided one way or the other
until you choose WinLeftEgo/WinRight EcoPolitical CoOperative-Flow Balance.
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 psyche’s do cooperatively flow best,
and when differentiated ego-identities are more likely to get in the way
of mental happiness optimization,
a co-empathic nondual bliss zone.
Anievas and Niscanciogla (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 in the militaristic and racist international volumes of violent comparative history.
This ecopolitical story unfolds unevenly empowered by resilience of ecosystemic balance
between healthy land and workers
and multicultural consumer-producer harmony,
at least on the more matriarchal home front of transgenerational nurturance,
formation,
WinWin familial and/or tribal, and/or feudal ecopolitics.
Here, international power relations grow up
to become the proud military-capital invested parents
of their prodigal children,
racial-cultural elites playing WinLose survivalist evolution
against internal-flow health of non-elite bioregions.
It remains unclear whether these Western Winners might have chosen to optimize more inclusive WinWin flow
by leading with cooperative ecopolitical empathic trust strategies;
just as this is often unclear within our day-to-day family feuds,
or even the LeftYang-RightYintegral battles
written across each human heart.
I start wondering if C’s co-arising forces of ego-differentiation and Self-with-Other harmonic flow opulence could,
on a wider, more geopolitical, scale,
be dynamically equivalent to A&N’s uneven ecopolitical health maturation
and integral flow of wealth,
ebbing and flowing international trends toward capital-rich nutrients.
If so, then these same appositional duo-dynamos are at work in Yang force
with Yin flow,
Left MindBody dominance with RightBrain elder-sacred economic recession,
and yet within this larger stage
the personal integrity possibilities of Left-Right geopolitical mindbody ecobalance remains.
At least imaginatively;
rather like a Thought Experiment of spectrum-relativity.
Each geopolitical phylogenic development process
begins baptized in a nurturing health-wealth matriotic economy
because this is true for each of us as ego-identified.
We might stand within historical reason
beginning with Elder RightBrain’s temporal-only center,
more autonomic and bilaterally-bicamerally intuitive.
RightBrain intuition could be an important source for Positive Psychology’s healthy nutritional flow patterns and rhythms
toward Self/Other integrity,
co-empathic trust as ecopolitically cooperative wealth.
In this time of urgent need to improve climate health,
rather than adding further pathological Yang LeftDominant competitions,
evolution’s phylogenic development invites healing through Yin-integrative flow,
reconnecting paradigmatic networks,
revolving our ego-eco deep learning YangEgo ebb
to more fully sustain
Yin’s eco-climate flow.
Another approach,
also ending in whatever “eco” means to you,
whether home or Rome or Earth or even the worship of capital itself,
is to notice that history is itself Yang Dominant,
as Yin-RightBrain speaks only the dialects of integrity’s relationship.
The search for Yang/Yin balance is, in this sense,
a search for ecopolitical domestic Left/Right justice with peace flow harmony,
deeply learned and held by the daily non-event miracles
of nonhistory’s matriotically integral evolutions
of sustained climate health
continuing to struggle with monocultural
LeftBrain militaristic and competing capitalistic history of WinLose wrongs,
of climate pathology.
This does not say,
nor imply,
that gender climates
and racial climates
and military climates
and economic climates
are all the same difference.
Nor does this suggest one is more important than the other.
That would be a YangDominant process of differentiation.
Needed now, for multicultural polypathic deep learning,
is Yin’s integral DNA/RNA solidarities
of double-binding (0)sum temporal-evolution-incarnating fractals
framing eternity signs of octave torus
matriotic integral and patriotic external refining eco-harmonics,
regeneratively guiding climate health
away from climate pathologies,
both psychological and geopolitical.
A racist favors separation of races.
Racists come in two varieties,
but both behaviorally favor separation of races,
if not theoretically,
then practically,
too comfortable with past apartheid,
such as all White faith communities,
for one nonexclusively intended example,
practicing our habitual ecosystemic politics of mistrust.
Racists favor separation of their race
from that of others
to further ecopolitical praxis of assumed racial superiority,
which is the ongoing mutual disempowerment story of racism.
There is no authentic empowerment side
in our racism story
because we are all weaker when we prefer to fly apart
and stronger when we fly more multiculturally deep-enriched,
together.
In our choices of community investment,
when and where do we seek co-empowerment
of the cooperative multicultural purse?
rather than Business As Competing-Racism Usual.
Competing to defend our birthright separated standing
in life’s survivalist-revivalist pecking order,
is a dull monochromatic defensive position
within WinLose gaming positions,
entirely inappropriate for WinWin multiculturing opportunities,
self-other regenerative optimization
for Beloved Health-Wealth Communities.
I was in Nazareth the other day
waiting for a visit with my acupuncture ecotherapist.
The waiting room is minimalist-zen, I suppose.
While waiting to be invited in next,
I took a chair
with a magazine table in front
displaying two magazines,
one to my left
and one to my right.
The one on my left
was about the Democrats’ ProLife Policy,
advertising titles like
Earth’s Cooperative ReGeneration,
Climate Health Economic Opportunities
LongTerm Public Health and Safety
Becoming Beloved Communities.
The magazine on my right was the Republican ProLife Position,
as iconically represented by Wealth as Trump-Ace cards,
with titles like
Aborting Our Babies’ Future
Hot Air, Filthy Water, BurnedOut Soil
Public Health Issues Not Covered by ObamaCare.
I chose the Health Development magazine on my left
because I thought it would be more consistently
redundantly
multiculturally
ecologically
regeneratively
positively pro-life,
while Aborting our Babies’ Future Health
seemed more likely to just be another long advertisement
for negative
degenerative
anti-ecological
anti-Earth Sciences
anti-HealthyWealthy Creation Stories of Paradise Still Becoming,
rather like a Yes! magazine,
but that was a surprising non-choice
in that time and place,
within that monoculturally plutocratic condemning life
I suppose was envisioned in the magazine on my Right.
Anyway,
I will never truly know.
Just as I picked up the ProLife Left choice
my ecotherapist invited me in for our appointment,
during which s/he told me I should feel better for the next four years
knowing I did the best I could to defend against further pathologies,
and to just continue choosing Positive as ProLife ReGenerators,
7-Generation bicameral double-binding magazines,
co-arising both/and either/or appositions
of ecopolitical climate pro-life health
v anti-ecological landscapes of further pathological
pain-in-the-neck,
and even considerably lower,
condemning future potential generations to abort
as an entire EarthBound species
rabidly in denial of untimely death by
pre-millennially LeftBrain too dominant
anti-ecologically ecopolitically too competitive
WinLose Party Players
against caring for the health of future babies.
So, continue choosing the Positive ProLife Deviant magazine on my left
and comprehend why that choice is resonantly confluent
with RightBrain’s NotNot Health-Abortive DNA/RNA,
also known in Nazareth as ecologically sacred encryption,
humane-divine bilateral inspiralation.
As soon as s/he saw me reach for the Left,
my ecotherapist from Nazareth knew
I would be as OK as I could be
about our future regenerative,
rather than degenerative
public health pro-life choices.
My son, nearly twenty,
living at home while attending community college,
without prospects of healthier, more robust, alternatives,
believes it is now past time
for pollsters to cast aside their neutral professional agendas
and play a more positive role
in educating this co-invested international polity.
So, ask not just Who are you voting for?
but first, try
Of the nominees for President and Vice President,
and Governor and Senator,
and so on,
of these United States,
in which your grandchildren’s children
will see the day when one out of every four people
now living in coastal regions
will evacuate their homes and places of employment
before they return to the sea,
not just because we did not care enough
to slow down our oil burn rate
but also because we planted herds of cows
without reforesting today’s climate pathologies;
given all of the above
which Nominees for these public ecopolitical offices
do you believe will be most helpful
for these next 7-generations of EarthTribe?
Which nominees will you vote for
because they are in your grandchildren’s best long-term economic
and politically ecological,
and just plain healthy and safety and security and happiness interests?
Which Nominee do you believe is the greatest risk
for continuing current climate and Earth-landscape monocultural pathology trends
toward further un-polypathic mistrust,
collective paranoia exhibiting rabidly nihilistic
and competitively terrifying anti-ecological
Business As Usual?
Which nominees for Public Health Defense and Security Office
do you believe would also be strong candidates
for mentoring and facilitating regeneratively healthy outcomes
as CEO for Global Public Health Optimization,
Secretary for All EarthLives and Deaths Matter Education,
Chief Guru for Environmental Health Defense
and Global Nutritional Security,
Secretary of EarthTribe Habitat
and ReGenerative EcoPolitical as EcoLogical Development?
Thank you so much for your healthy and mindful responses now,
and in your GoGreen! voting booth.
So, to all who both did and did not vote
in the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election,
would you mind responding to my son’s questions?
about your active hopes for Presidents
and Vice Presidents,
and their likely Secretary of EarthRights State,
so we might all revisit
our evolutionary Golden Rule Constitutional Convention,
review how we have been treated
with healthy kindness and pathological unkindness,
by Earth’s ecoconscious regenerative ecology,
to date 2020
seeing with full polypathic bicamerally balanced revision
of LeftBrain dominant ecopolitical premillennial history
reifying politically cooperative nutritional health from ecologically evolving wealth
of regenerative nurturing co-empathic trust
of/for EarthTribe’s full Left/Right
Yang/Yin
WinWin wu wei ecopolitical
cooperatively co-empathic ego/eco 2020 consciousness.
I don’t recall all that much talk in locker rooms.
These are typically quiet as reflective libraries
unless involved in team sports.
Then locker room talk may review a well played game,
but, again, those played less fortunately,
less familiarly,
not really too much to say,
sometimes thinking of other more nutritionally feeding things,
people,
places in time’s perpetually receding memory.
Rooms for locking up over yanged secrets
are not known for either quality or quantity of affluent speech.
These are more about actions outside these locking up rooms,
reveling to reveal ourselves and others
an embarrassment of self-ridiculing riches.
But, I do recall
I thought I could hear which brand of ecopolitical life
a locker room voice would choose,
usually somewhere between
raping victims only good for bullying
and standing in solidarity with teams and leagues and games
where we learn more from losing together
than winning apart
in superhero myths and antics
of unfettered self-supremacy,
hubris of engorged,
yet over-rated disengaged,
penises with hands for grabbing and taking
what can only be given as an intimate gift.
In some ways
we are all locked rooms,
craving intimacy
that causes tremors
terrible tremblings,
not terror
and yet terror’s opposite.
What names we have found for ecstasy
of unlocked talking and walking,
playing and working
and wondering how could ecstasy sustain
through decades of morning and night time
dressing to undress routines
and all invitations in between.
