Sacred Energy

Fascism lives in tension with holy optimism, as hatred fades in presence of mutual love, as WinLose evolutionary models give way to WinWin sacred Energy stories and songs and dances, as patriarchal colonization gives way to matriarchal creolization. Fascism, synonymous with Totalitarianism, as written by Hannah Arendt, is a growing monocultural tendency toward, and actual exercise of, strong autocratic dictatorial aristocratic elitist insanely Yang-whacked CEO control freaks. Energy controlled by Elite patriarchal WinLose Models of retribution as stronger and more self-sufficient than cooperative restoration, LeftBrain dominant thought control, word-choice control, communications control, transportation in and out control, violent control, fear and hate-mongering control; Yet absolutely no control over YangNature with YinSpirit of Love, Beauty, Integrity, Synergy. In my bedraggled Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary, probably purchased at the local Goodwill Store, they add to fascism's definition "a tendency toward" rather than a more conservative view of totalitarian energy as actual authoritative power to exercise monoculturing tyrannical economic and political environments, climates, landscapes. Back in my pre-millennial era, we called "a tendency toward" fascism bullying and bad parenting, and bad politics, and bad nihilistic economics, and bad use of more optimistically WinWin secular-sacred double-binding PositivEnergy. Some tried to pass off school day histories of NegativEnergy bullying as their personal version of ToughLove Capital Development Experience troubled occasionally by Anger MisManagement, JustWar Defensiveness, But, in the rural MidWest we patriotically called rabid egocentrism lack of co-redeeming love and lack of good faith and pathological lack of healthy cooperative trust in sacred multiculturing Golden Rules for active use of positive polypathic Energy to control over-investment in self-perpetuating doubly boundup bullying to produce further Negative Desecrating Energy. Some take the view that energy, like power, is a value-neutral thing, but both scientific secular and sacred spiritual paradigms speak of Positive Energy and Negative Energy and sensory-sensual Energy and double-binding informational Energy of regenerative cooperatives and degenerative dissonance and over-heating climates of overYanged competitions. We might embrace this further sacred ecological view that PositivEnergy grows toward integrity of democratic cooperativity, while NegativEnergy grows toward totalitarianism, seeking control over democratic integrity of Ego's inside voice for EcoConsciousness Conscious Energy of ourselves hopefully among far more love as PositivEnergy and less hate-marketing and fear-mongering and anger-mismanagement shouting out against Commons EarthSoul harmonies. Outdoor inside nature-spirit voices listening less to bullies and bad parenting and horridly rabid CEOs favoring, and too tolerant of, played-out aggressions, bullying mendacity. PositivEnergy Creation Stories are love stories, and love stories are EnergyIntegrity Stories. And there is nothing ambivalent or neutral or stagnantly Traditional or non-sensual or non-sensory or violently aggressive or even self-righteously defensive about them. Sacred Paradise is about Energy Democracy. That other place, within and without, is about growing tendencies toward paranoia, bullying, and Energy Fascism. So, is your EnergyGod one of PolyphonicLove for restorative justice and liberty with all democratic positive energizers? Or is your EnergyGod one of Fascist control over PositivEnergy anti-WinWin? Using magic sorcery of monoculturing fundamental polarization with colonizing predative intent, missionary retributions rather than missions of co-redemption, self-righteous laws and rules and jealous orders held more closely than sacred restorative peace and justice, WinWin love songs and dances, re-creation stories. Predations of fascism thrive on shouted, never sung, punishment, fear, vengeance, flames of anger, jealous of all the PositivEnergy gods and goddesses of EarthSoul's Original PolyPhonic Intent. Perhaps you can have both our PositivEnergy PolyphonicGod and your NegativEnergy fascist demons and CEOs, bullies and bad punishing hateful selfish bigoted and sexist parents, as many of us do, but it is important to Earth's survival that we become better educated, better noticers of which is which, and how we are each from some of both. PositivEnergy wants to become better listeners and speakers and voters and leaders for non-violent ReGenerativEnergy, More frequently found in our forests and backyards than in our smartphones and laptops and BadEnergy News Stories And, sadly, our less than PositivEnergy optimizing monoculturish RightWing schools and parent educators, and lifeskills mentors, and congressional governing authorities growing NegativEnergy Bodies suffering near total bicameral collapse, Dismembering sacred memories, GoldenRule songs and dances of Paradise ReMembering harvesting restoring PositivEnergy to promote future multiculturally celebrating climates polyculturing healthy PositivEnergy, AnimaMundi, within as without, Holy EgoEco Balancing NatureSpirits. Egocentric fascism lives in tension with holy optimism, as hatred fades in presence of mutually copresent love, as LeftBrain denialism grows in co-arising tension with WiseElder RightBrain redirecting and slow-grow pacing PositivEnergy.
