If one has a pulse, breathes and takes water and food, if one loves, if one has a thought of one's own right now and a conscience, one is a spirited, natural being, with potential for increasing intimacy with Life.
Especially in the last 400 years, much has been achieved through disregard of humanity - and through media, over the last 90 years - to prevent and dissolve that combination in most people, but it's not really far off.
Thanks for your kind comment. These occupy cafes are both stimulating and frustrating (for me). I enjoy listening to different people's POV and thinking about these challenging core questions but the limitations of being on the phone rather then in one physical space and dealing with the turmoil of Maestro Conference I find frustrating. As I think about it, I suppose it's no different from learning any new process, eventaully I'll adapt to the system and my expectations will change, therefore, my experience.
Perhaps part of my impatience stems from having known since I was five that I wasn't being told the whole story and then holding that awareness to myself for 45 years. For the last 30 years I've spoken (and written) about these issues more and more in a number of forums. This impetus is triggered in part by the realization that I don't have too may more years (this time round, at least) to share all those things I understood so many long years ago.
Who knows if it's true but it makes a good story and since I'm a stroyteller, I guess that'll have to be OK.
np, just wanted to give you heads up thatc
I'll be deleting my comments re that currency system before they get on the net - I'm not the only one who does a news alert on that keyword.
Look up Barbara Marx Hubbard, and evolutionary spirituality. I am the evolutionary consciousness of the universe in person. Listen to BMH chakra meditation, found on her website, or I can email you a copy when I get home tomorrow.
Hi David, No clear plans for thehumanxperience right now. I am attached to whatever it might become in the future. Scott (also OccupyCafe member) set it up for me a few years ago. Want to read your latest posts, may not have time to for a few days but looking forward to when I do.
