Trinitarian Voices

Father’s Voice Your ungainly question, What is the meaning of Life? reminds of another, What is purpose to Beauty? which reminds of, What is meaning and purpose for Grace? and Karma? Not ugly, empty, meaningless death, perhaps? Life, like beauty, evolves appositional responses of meaning, outlined, co-defined by negative losses and suffering and absence of healthy purpose, staying away from pathologies and toxins and uglies and means and greeds and envies and Ego dominance; Life, like beauty, evolves toward more nutritionally balanced, blended, proportional symmetry, equi-valency, full-color cultures, more rainbow-octavish dancing in circles health choices found within your deep ecology of internal as external beauty as responsible and wholesome cooperative truths, all merging toward our universally golden hypothesis that EarthTribe is in this messy beautiful evolution of regenerativity profoundly and radically and ubiquitously and co-arisingly together, as we are each not hypnotically immersed within noisy stagnant ugly competing Ego monopoly games losing life’s healthy integrative, assimilative beautiful beloved potential. Son’s Response Seeking purposive meaning for life and beauty and love feels like trying to gratefully worship a transcendent God outside myself, outside my responsibilities, relationships, outside my political and economic authority, outside my friends and enemies, outside Earth and all Earth’s bio- and ecosystems. Yet, all I can know of this outsideness is absence, loss, death, dismay, abandonment, neglect, violence competing among themselves for loudest voice where God is not incarnate, not omnipotent, not omnipresent, not life, not beauty, not love. If God is not my epicenter of healthy active incarnating love, seeding and weeding and watering and nourishing and polyculturally-multiculturally harvesting abundant communication and community and personal and political and economic cooperative health, responsible and authoritative ecotherapeutic evolution of Self as Other interdependent with Earth’s ecological co-mentoring, co-messianic, bodhisattva occupier vocational opportunities responding true within Earth’s radically profound Beauty as Love Basic Attendance mindful ecoconsciousness, when all feels and smells and tastes and walks well, then I, dear Faither, have become a practicing atheist. And, that could work out just fine, therapeutically, so long as I avoid ego- and anthrocentric excesses; yet Love Fertilization seems so much easier and effective than Anger Management. Spirit-Nature Resonance Perhaps a profound difference between human nature and Earth’s other forms and dialects merges our bilateral capacities to choose response to longing and belonging with their opposite intentions. Belonging inspires antipathies of not belonging, mutual immunities recognized and assimilated, while longing inspires reiteratively resonant co-longing to help, heal, and sometimes play with each other. Because we have opportunities to choose mutual belonging, this Basic Attendance assimilation of Earth’s incarnate longing for life and beauty and truth becomes incumbent ecoconsciousness within our more cooperative political and economically interdependent, co-evolving futures.
