I am acknowledging the role of your maleness in all of our lives; in the protection, provision and building our world. May your nurturing side unfold to heal our humanity. Wishing you a meaningful Father's Day this year.

About Me:

bout me 1:

“Truth is the First casualty of War. It is also the first condition of Peace”

“Everybody has a piece of the Truth and every body has a piece of the Lie.”

“Violence doesn’t work. Non-violence doesn’t work either. Maybe Healthy Culture will work”

—I-P

We all live in, are infected by, and suffer from, a sick Culture of Apart-ness, of Alienation. This culture, like all culture is comprised of Cosmology, Identity, Ritual, and Infrastructure. In the case of the dominant culture this means; a Cosmology of Apart-ness, an Identity-Politics of Apart-ness, Rituals of (inner and outer) Apart- ness, and Infrastructures of Apart-ness. Education (formal and informal) is the transmission of culture, and in our case it is the transmission of this sick culture. The factional political paradigms of our time (including those based on race, gender, class, political party, nationality, even species) are all symptoms of, rather than cures for, this condition of sick culture. As such, none of them have any potential at all for changing anything that matters in any sustainable way. We have no time for this.

Since sick culture is the problem, it follows that Healthy Culture is the solution. So what is Healthy Culture and how does it manifest on the collective, political Level? Glad you asked. This question is explored on my two motime blogs :integralscience.motime.com and lifedancelog.motime.com. There I write of an extremely small, but vital and replicable, Cultural Pilot Project that is currently going on in the cultural microclimate of Twin Oaks Intentional community in Virginia involving the practice of Healthy Culture; its cosmology of Togetherness (Integral Science), its Identity-Politics of Togetherness (Individual-Personhood), it’s Rituals of Togetherness (Life-Dance rituals) and its Infrastructure of Togetherness.


About me 2:

Integral Scientist, Cultural Evolutionary, Comic, Song and Dance person. Practitioner of Healthy Culture that is, The Culture of Togetherness. A lot of what I say, sing, write and do is an expression of this culture and of the cosmology (which I call Integral Science),Identity Politics (Individual-Personhood), ritual, and Infrastructure that constitute it. Dancer around the Tree of Life. Interested in Tantra, Karezza, Peace Between the Sheets, raw food, chi gung, intentional community, bioremediation, architect Christopher Alexander and much more, all in the context of Healthy Culture. Writer and singer of songs, player of music. Interested in the inner and outer transfomation and healing. Sincere, kind, funny, a very creative, brilliant and deliberate person. On the path with Heart and Resolved to dancing up hill against the prevailing avalanche of false surviving, bad faith, factional identities, fear-based motivations, and the privitization of reality.
