Opulent Community

Martin Luther King, and other gospel reared nonviolent communications leaders, advocated for "Beloved Communities." An important difference between Beloved and Opulent may have to do with integrity, intimacy, interior grace of sacred loved place in opulent EarthTribe enriching space. I hope that any ego-centering and re-centering relationship of love may become embraced by warmly interdependent ecosystemic surroundings, supporting bioregionally polycultural opulence, resonance, expanding out into sacred green and red and blue and yellow and orange and purple and turquoise non-violent resilience. Opulent polyculturing communities learn to minimize win/lose competitive health risks by optimizing wealthy, resilient win/win opportunities. Intent and planning and budgeting and cooperative design work play mini-retreats to richly engage compassionate communication, verbal narratives, as residents feel safe in mutual transparency, rooted in nonverbal beloved feelings, co-empathically polytheistic, for and from wildly green wiki win/win womanist allies. Emerging from chronically stressed, opulent pearls of indigenous wisdom, ancient sacred overwhelming waves of ecstatic emotions inspire today's interdependent opulent spell-binding synergetic experiences. Jesus's Holy Spirit openly, quietly, shadow GoldenRules again. Sacred experiences range from middling win/lose images of stressed humane/divine relationships of passive mistrust; then down through traumatic monoculturing, monotheistic, monopolistic stressed despairing lack of relationship; and then soaring to heights of win/win beloved ego core soul centers and ecosystemic healthy and safe multicultural opulence. An illusion of Beloved EgoPrivilege becomes mountainously hierarchical Yang from above, peak patriarchal-capitalist engorgement experience. Meanwhile Opulent EcoParadise engages ecologically enthymematic regenerative tissues with degenerative issues unresolved by bipolar illusions against Yang's privileged autonomy, dominance, like right handedness and logical verbal mindedness and not self-abandoned nakedness cooperative pleasure copassionate joy.
