Sacred Warriors for Sacred Earth

As one plunges deeper into the One Reality, a spirit of reverence -- indeed, of adoration -- becomes the "eye" through which one sees: the Holy is not separate from the all of manifested creation! Everywhere one looks, there is "Only One" and that "One" is wholly Holy! Cloud, blue sky, movement of wind, swinging grasses, rising flowers, birds, animals, flowing waters, lakes, mountains, trees, and oceans: everything is a revelation of wonder and the presence of the One Love: transcendent and immanent: both at the very same time...

The mystic continues through the creatures to the beyond: to the One without form, before ideas and thought: into the Garden of What if?

Everywhere the One is Alive and Present: this mystic awareness is as the free flow of the breath: infusing being with essence and divinity: now identified by the uncreated energy of the One Love Consciousness: and evolving into a living paradise... this "knowing" puts an entirely different flavor into the debate about climate change and our human place and relationship to and with Nature...

For millennia, humans have striven to dominate Nature: to get "it" under control as much as possible: eradicate the wild and then conserve the remnants into "parks" for viewing; dam (damn) the wild rivers; make "accessible" the highest peaks with tour guides, snack stands, or helicopters; manipulate genetics; decode the mysteries; and subjugate anything that didn't serve the obvious ends of industry-technology-consumption-dominator paradigm...

Profit! Let us all bow and pray to the God of our Human Design (the best economic system and God ever)! Look and see how the so-called Conservatives scrape their noses to the ground before the Sacred Altar of Profit! Look and see how the so-called Liberals bend over backwards to keep their noses off the ground -- but how ironic -- look where they place them instead! Argue this and argue that: all for someone's entertainment! But wouldn't you just know it, there is always more to the story...

On the margins -- always on the margins -- the Ancient Goddess, the Shaman, the Mystic, and the Prophet continue to give voice to the Right Relationship that is both our birthright and the original vision of Paradise... The impulse and drive to dominate is not the Way forward into our destiny: only the "right relationship" of mystic surrender and adoration will carry this precious blue Planet forward: so how to activate conscience and consciousness to the One Love of the Holy One? How to reconcile the human with the purpose of conscious evolution? These sacred questions are the heart of the "climate change" debate: without the deep thinking of mystic awareness, we serve only the continued expansion of the Dominator Paradigm: neither conservative nor liberal: but freely-human-to-the-perfection-of-love: radical -- "to the roots" -- compassionate activists for the liberation of All" "To adore now has come to mean pledging oneself body and soul to creative act.." (Pierre Teilhard de Chardin)...

"To pledge oneself to creative act" is to stand for that which is way beyond both conservative and liberal: it is to stand with this precious blue Planet and serve an entirely new and different paradigm. Why should we believe and support the justified destruction of this Planet because it fits the dominator model of religious and social organization -- in which a few men get to reap the spoils of our obedience? What is the latest statistic -- 85 individuals have the combined wealth of the "bottom" 3.5 billion persons on the Planet? Who's got the military and police? Who's got the governments and legislators? Who's got the technocrats and social servants? Who's got the media conglomerates? [Hint: it isn't the bottom 3.5 billion.] Ah, but who has the actual liberating power of Love for their creative use? Who has the mystic support of the life-systems of this Planet? And who has the power of every "What if?" and "Why not?" possibility? [Hint: it isn't the top 85.]

Finally, give an attentive eye to the words of Pierre Teilhard once again: "Being resigned, formerly could signify passive acceptance of present conditions of the universe. Being resigned now will be no longer allowed, save to the warrior fainting away in the arms of the angel." In other words, it is time to stop buying what both the conservative and the liberal -- in service to the top 85 -- are offering for your purchase and obedience! It is time to become a Sacred Warrior of this Sacred Earth! It is time to energize and organize! It is time to accept nothing other than the Paradise that is Possible! Mystic-Activist awareness is the certain knowing that we are called to lives of radical faith: growing in the One Love Communion of Our Mutual Liberation: it is by our entrance upon this path that we may encounter every being as our Sacred Other and even discover our Place in the Living Web of Earth-Being...

"Suppose that this paradise will never come to pass (that I understand), yet I shall go on preaching it. And yet how simple it is; in one day, IN ONE HOUR everything could be arranged at once! The chief thing is to love others like yourself, that's the great thing, and that's everything..." (Fyodor Dostoevsky, Dream of a Ridiculous Man). Now, Onward into the rEvolution!
