Poem
It is at least interesting to turn life's political economy backward through reverse-time focus. Life's memories of an uphill journey, perhaps even a sacred pilgrimage, toward an ultimate death of ego identity, giving way voluntarily, or not, to Earth's regenerative potential, or not. Let's call this ecoconsciousness of light As we mature, we ascend and wonder if and how and when we might ever reach what we so hope will be a WinWin health and wealth abundant outcome, somehow against the biological odds of decay, for all future lives we dread leaving behind, despite our original uphill problem of egocentric death, purgation. As we approach older age of ominous portent, youth's omnipotent hopes more or less dashed, it is remarkably easier to turn our mindbody image backward toward our original embryonic becoming, and marvel at our journey toward this time and place, this almost eternally summarizing moment of ego identity emergence. Now easier looking down the vista of distance gained to encourage ourselves about how cleverly and often clumsily, yet inevitably, we have arrived on this pilgrimage toward ego death as ecoconscious freedom, ascending, continuing to co-arise until we reach this Omega Point WinWin as these ego-eco twin lenses transubstantiate toward one EarthLight, regenerating sacred purpose. Looking backward, down this pilgrimage hill climbed toward now aging autumn moment, remaining opportunity feels easier and lighter, more helpful, even compassionate. To reframe Thomas Aquinas with a Taoist both-and cause-effect twist: S/he who considers absolutely (0)Source Origins the highest cause of the whole universe, namely Earth's Creator God, and considers sacred also these remaining effects of Earth's universal pilgrimage toward diastatically fertile ecoconscious identity, is most of all called wise. If Yang God is cause then so is Yin Goddess wisdom's flowing effect most regeneratively both before and after sacred outcomes on this pilgrimage we share toward our co-arising WinWin Game of and for regeneratively ecoconscious creation stories about journeys toward our diastatic (0)Mega Light destination from which each polypathic integrity of humane life was ecologically fertile born. If God is first cause, then Eden Earth is final regenerative effect. If our historic path is at least the story of our natural phylogenic evolution then enculturation is also our orthodox creation story of sacred theological revolutionary effects through egocentric death, by merely imagining our mindbodies continuing on this co-arising aging journey but looking back through our long beloved, and yet often frightening and angry ego, journey so necessary to ultimately conjoin God's polypathic ecoconsciousness, weaving Earth's optimally regenerative WinWin outcomes through love of co-empathic trust in Earth's health-wealth optimizing time along this retrospectively ecological uphill journey toward egocentric death.
