Healing a Trumpian God

I remember several prayers to invoke God's blessings on America, a reminder of traditional political mindfulness? Fundamental lack of awareness of righteous economic investments in win/win GoldenRule positive social-psychological security. No one "keeps" or "makes" this confederation of uniting states great, unless we democratically cooperate developing resonant resilience through compassionate communication, leftbrain polypathic truth echoing right brain polyphonic beauty. Invocations to sustain safety suggest the U.S. is win/win safe now, or implies concern that we are at win/lose risk. We have, over these past industrial-scientific centuries, discovered ways to sustain ecologically healthy relationship, to economically and politically and culturally and physically and mentally and naturally and spiritually remain safe and unsafe. We are each on a continuum of health v pathology as individual egos, as is each of our State ecosystems, as is this Nation-identity as a whole eco-political system within an international interdependent natural/spiritual network of compassion or Business As Usual capital-monopolistic competition. "America" refers to two continents, one to the north and one to the south. A U.S. safety and health security measure may or may not be appropriate health and safety policy and procedure for this quartile of Earth. Do you also fear and anger about heading in an ecologically unraveling, and therefore increasingly unsafe, direction? more immediately for our coastal nations and, yes, still somewhat united States, struggling for healthy survival of GoldenRule sanity, remembered as eco/theo-logical GoldenAges past. We would be spiritually safe and naturally healthy for and from what and why? Tradition conservative minds, both eco- and theo-logical, tend to exegete the Preamble to the Constitution and perhaps even the Declaration of Independence. Here we read we are united in healthy pursuits of happy well-being prosperity. We also read we are uniting with freedom to articulate a multicultural relationship with God, free of dominating, power-over controlling religious-political constraints, restraints, threats, retribution against personal regenerative hope, judgments against eco/theo-logical natural/spiritual healthy expression, and economic leverages or divestments. Uniting with and for and of freedom includes no inquisitions for bowing to the East. If we all did, then God might feel the humor of AnthroSupremacists bowing and worshiping toward each Other's rear end, finding us good and proper invoking with our coordinated heads on Earth's ground, this timeless Now a polyculturally wise day mutually inviting humility, win/win safety defending and recreating our cooperative economic-political healthy atmosphere. Does separation of religious from cultural self-governance, from international declarations for peace and national democratic co-empowering constitutions grow intrinsic tension with our desire to safely connect for resilient eco-political prosperity? This national united democratic identity was, and somewhat remains, a radical social secularized experiment tainted by commodified relationships between inhumane predators and dis-humanized human prey become wealth-producing property, slave labor, producers of straight white male capital rewards. Religious multicultural awards, rather than monocultural and supremacist, institutions compassionately intend regenerative self/other GoldenRules WinWin perpetuation toward safe and healthy co-governance throughout Time's ecosystemic/egocentering eternities. ReConnection ReLigion is the nutritional stuffing of political powers over and powers with, powers under and powers without, empowerment and disempowerment, investment and divestment, inhalation and exhalation, enlightenment and duality's darkness, life and death. Multiculturing a shared safe and healthy politically powerful teleology, reason for being, for becoming healthier and safer together, is not ecologically-economically equivalent, is not educationally Win/Win reciprocally relevant, to dumbed-down anti-spirited nihilism against cooperative society and polyculturally polypathic polyphonic polyvagal polymorphic polynomially profound integral democratic empowerment experience and strong historically-rooted nutrition systems. We under-sell our political ecology of healthy multi-enculturation communication by purging ourselves of rightbrain interdependent win/win safety faith and empathic trust in each responsible Other, faith in Earth's cooperative health and multigenerational sustainability; Bleaching compassionate faith out of public discourse, especially public education in favor of restoring compassionate eco/theo-logical interrelationships, and most especially bleaching out of deep listening-learning mindfulness health and safety about our own uniting states of ecopolitical trust, climates of win/lose competitive mistrust, learned anthro-centric distrusts secularizing our positive natural/spiritual inter-faiths and negative ego-ethnocentric prejudices within our interior landscapes and across the North and South American landscape of a remarkably ecological co-evolving history for polyculturing, creolizing, dynamic-revolving nature/spirit transubstantiating, Earth. Reified leftbrain science and education can only predict closed-system zero-sum entropy, while nature-spirit deep learning comprehends emergent open-systemic co-empathic loves, win/win integrity, nondual cooperative truths as symmetrical beauties, multiculturing evolution of Time our regenerational transgenerational ego-selves within ecosystemically resonant natural/spiritual bodies nature habitat begun from EarthMother wombs. May our multiculturing GodLike Earth continue to bless all our North and South Americans to love all our polyculturally healthy safe well-being, passionately co-invested EarthTribes.
