Following Earth's Light

Borrowing from David Holmgren, Permaculture Principles and Pathways Beyond [Win-Elite v Lose-NonElite] Sustainability, 2002, p. 1 Health ethics are Beloved Community normative principles used to guide action toward good and light and right outcomes and away from degeneratively bad and wrong outcomes, darkly ego-pathic and monoculturing rather than polypathically polyculturing. Regenerative ethics constrain Ego's Win/Lose (Either/Or) survival instincts and other ecopolitical constructs of self-interest competitively driving humane-enspirited-enlightening BothAnd behavior. Enculturing ecosystemic ethics evolve mechanisms for growing and extending co-enlightening self-interest, a more ego/eco bilateral-centered inclusive view of who and what constitutes "ego-plus-light/dark environment" evolving a longer-term regenerative/degenerative understanding of WinWin-good and LoseLose-bad monoculturing outcomes. The greater the polypathically authoritative power of humane-divine civilization (due to information/energy equitable accessibility and ownership) and the greater our concentration and scale of ecosystemic light-power within our ecopolitical praxis, the more prescriptively critical ethics become for ensuring long-term Beloved Community cultural, and biological, short-term survival through long-term light-authority thrival. This ecological view of enculturing ethics evolves regeneratively central through the nutritional v toxic development of a post-millennial culture in, of, and for post-mature climax of paid-out-forward eco-messianic energy descent without concomitant authoritative creolizing ecologically composting nutritional health-information descent. Like polyculturing descriptive design principles, cooperative pay-forward co-investment ethical principles follow three broad enlightening (v endarkening) maxims or ecologically polypathic principles: 1. Care of/for Earth; includes, but is not limited to 2. Care of/for people; includes, but is not exclusive of 3. Carefully set authority/responsibility maturing balance limits to ego's authoritative light consumption as double-binding eco-other reproductive responsibility and eco-redemptive cooperative co-investing redistributing surplus of light-nutrition; also decelerating degenerative dark-toxic waste. Health-wealth cooperative principles distill research of and for Beloved Community polyculturing ethics, as adopted and creole-adapted by older nature-spirit nondual religious and polypathically multiculturing cooperative groups. The third principle embryonically evolves out of the second principle embryonically evolving out of the first principles of polypathic ecological Earth. Luke (the HealthProfessional) 11:33-34 The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is polypathically healthy, your whole body is illuminated; but if your eye is pathologically ego-supremacist, your whole body will be dark [closed off to The Perfect Light, see also Rumi on nature-spirit light v dark]. If therefore the light in you is darkness, how [monoculturally] great is that darkness! Dale B. Martin, Biblical Truths: The Meaning of Scripture in The Twenty-First Century, 2017, pp 52-3 These verses are about the importance of [light/dark] perception; we may say even [healthy] attitude. If my faculty of observation, whether of the world, of other things, of other people, of one's own situation is bad or unhealthy, I will myself be in a bad, unhealthy state. Having good [polypathically mature] perception is necessary for having [and regeneratively retaining] good internal health. This is not, therefore, just a statement of [descriptive] fact, though it is that; it is given as a moral [prescriptive] lesson: we ourselves are morally responsible for how we perceive things [light ecologically and dark ego-pathology]. Jesus is telling us to train our eyes to see [ego/eco-conscious enlightened] well, not badly, not in an evil way. But this also means we are not destined to only one way of seeing. We can [re]learn to see [cooperative light v overly-competitive dark] properly. We can train our eyes to see in a [humane-]godly and [active] loving manner. And in fact, we [ecologically] have to [descriptively and prescriptively]. Seeing properly-- [humane-]godly [co-operative creolizing] perception, correct [nondual co-arising light/dark] seeing-- is a learned and practiced [sensory-neural] skill.... Seeing the world around us in a positive [light and negative-dark], accurate [polypathic ecological] way is a moral, personal, and social [ecopolitical authority with concomitant] responsibility (naive optimism that denies the [deauthorizing reverse-authenticating ecopolitically dark competing] facts is no virtue either). Thus, though [merely personal creolic ecological acclimation] empiricism cannot be an absolutely [exegetical] reliable means to [polypathically] correct knowledge, we must learn to use it and use [enlightening authority and mutual endarkening responsibility] it well, even [especially] when doing theology [and teleology, and ethology, and economic and political regenerative purpose, and meaning of humane-godly lives and deaths].
