Poem
I wonder if one human life comes with opportunities to go home again. TimeLine Do-Overs. I wish I could have taught my kids, and my neighbors' kids, and your kids, that the Holy Spirit is to Christianity as the Gaia Hypothesis is to EarthJustice and Peace, to Bodhisattva Warriors, to secular humanist ecologist atheists, to Taoists, to Buddhists, to the Original Tribes of holonic-organic animists, nature-spirit nondual co-arising worshipers of each sunrise, each life as gift, grace, sacrament, wonder and awe, not quite so much competitive, win some but eventually lose it all shock and awe. The Gaia Hypothesis plays a WinWin dominant game as a creolizing matriarchal-patriarchal equivalent co-messianic political economy of co-redemption, Works for me as both Earth-regenerative natural process and HolySpirit-cooperative spiritual progress. There is indeed something childlike inherent in this view of Gaia as Sacred WinWin Ecology, perhaps in a Gregory Bateson sense, shared DNA-RNA memories of Mother's sacredly nutritious embryonic womb, when communication about mutual health care-giving and -receiving required no LeftBrain words not yet learned, and yet infant production and host consumption levels across the double-boundary of womb and embryonic new life balanced cooperatively co-empathic or both would perish as one Gaia Spirit. Everything I have learned about life in the real world other than this Virginal Gaia Spiritual experience of matriarchal nurturing flow to maintain bilateral primal relationships, has fallen a bit patriarchally short of my initial anticipation, expectations of meeting others originally baptized in polypathic Gaia Holiness Spirit and not really needing to remind their kids that our shared HolySpirit is to multiculturing religions as the Gaia Hypothesis is to polyculturing healthier outcomes. I wonder if I had planted this message back twenty years ago might Gaia as HolySpirit sound less hypothetical, and more exegetical, today.
