Romeo and Juliet: the Remix

Three voices required, Professor, and two students: Yang as Fr. Time YinYin as Sr. Gaia In a college classroom with Win-Win Game Theory written on whiteboard. Professor: Today we are going to role play a Win-Win enculturation game. Natural and Social Communication Sciences define Enculturation as ‘the combination of political and economic win/win relationships and resilient transactions not chronically win/lose much less critically lose/lose within a healthy communicating network of wealthy democratic choice-making.’ Lack of eco-political co-arising integrity generates systemic dissonance, suboptimized health outcomes, at best, in which positive communication is lost, putting win/win polycultural strategies at risk of turning win/lose. Capitalist and Patriarchal and MonoTheistic 0-sum competitive win/lose worldviews of Natural/Social BiNomial Communication +(+1) Evolutionary/-(-0) Devolutionary Sciences result in a suboptimized and, to that extent, polypathological -Win/-Win bipartisan miscommunication outcome +win = -(-0) lose opportunities to do better, to do financial wealth and polycultural health. Fr. Time: [In an appropriately low slow-sucking voice] I need to play Yang. Sr. Gaia: [In a lovely resonant soprano] I want to play yang as also yintegrity. Professor: Good, good. OK. So. let’s imagine that Yang, played by Fr. Time, is Romeo, and Yin, played by Sr. Gaia, is Juliet. But, this is a Win/Win Game, so Juliet, of the Mythos family, chooses to stay planted on lovely Earth so maybe she’ll just Cinderella sleep on her decision about what to do with Romeo's death, and see what happens later in the Prince Charming Department of her mythic romantic life. With Juliet in an apparent coma, Romeo, of the Logos family, storms through life’s stage all blood and thunder. He slowly wakes Mythos, and they compassion pleasure for themselves, each other, and all of Earth, and all of Earth’s Tribes, and all of the above live happily and healthily and wealthily ever after. [pause] Why is that not a more satisfying, healthier story for every time our political and economic outcomes trend toward a despairing valley disintegrative experience? Fr. Time: [speaking as Romeo—2 packs a day, at least] I feel so used up. My health, vibrancy, robust vitality fades. Sr. Gaia: (as dreaming Juliet) All your over-heated competitive passions for violent communication and colonization have left me sore! So good riddance, we are finding our MidWay, balancing your Logos natural family and my Mythos spirited re-memory Fr. Time: Sometimes your Gaia Mythos Story is too passively tolerant of unease without my Logos family’s Golden Rule. Sr. Gaia: Yes, but only when Juliet dreams of lovely Romeo as AnthroTime/EarthBody cooperatively play Win/Win Integrity Do I feel dipolar co-alignment, and Yintegrity can always play a metaphysical Mythos future re-becoming and past tense logos been. Juliet isn't confined to real-time, but half past time and half future time, working her karmic grace to keep these two together. Fr. Time: Left alone, you cannot yet speak? Gaia: Yes, my Romeo, I need both our “Yes to Life” enculturations, your politically powerful Logos of win/win family history, and my economically abundant co-operative Mythos. Our Midway. Wu-wei. Co-Tipping Point of perpetually balancing Natural and Spiritual Communication Indigenous Wisdom Sciences. Fr. Time: You always were the more strategic Win/Win cooperative player. Sr. Gaia: Oh, Father, I bet you say that to all the girls, and boys, but you and I both know and love our co-arising HealthyEarth consciousness of Win/Win polycultural communionation. Professor: OK. Very good. So first, Fr. Time and Sr. Gaia, how do you think that game was going? Any concerns or insights about Win/Lose suboptimization? Sr. Gaia: It feels like Romeo is too Left-brain dominant, too competitive Logos default. I realize it’s Romeo’s role to carry the dense, warm, close, dominant natural side of political qualities and economic quantities, that must continue to emerge for Win/Win eternally resilient outcomes. Yet, I am terrified of becoming too thin, too cool and shy, too absent, too chaotically dispersed, dissonant, despairing, suffering, dead inside, because I do so love this time as Juliet's dreams of Earth/s win/win resilience. I hope we can grow more accustomed to unearthing together, Logos with Mythos, science with religion, polycultural healing politics and weal-full economic procedures with therapeutic co-binary outcomes in bicamerally balanced +1/-(-0) Natural/Spiritual panentheistic insight. Fr. Time: Wouldn’t know what to add to our full-octave throated soprano’s resonant ring folding and unfolding her permaculturally indigenous Wisdom, and win/win culture, and language of Romeo's verbal reactions for life of sacred Gaia loving Juliet's nonverbal reconsiderations against death of MonoTheistic Time. Professor: I followed you right up to the last part. What is this patriarchal-capitalist Time of lose/lose death? Fr. Time: Like ‘Earth’ is an iconic noun for Yintegrity in polycultural Logos while ‘unearth’ is a Yang metaphysical verb. If ‘UnEarth’ were used as a negative-polynomial noun, then I guess that would be most everything we know nothing about except perhaps through our imagined thinning Time, cooling, dispersing future waves of co-gravitational absorption into Earth's great wheel of co-arising Win/Win Being. Professor: Well, thank you Fr. Time and Sr. Gaia, Namaste. So far, well done. Let the Win/Win Game continue, Time’s receding bilateral wave greeted by Mythic 3-dimensional future-as-now space, spinning our communication story of Logos time as Mythos space, within each +1-dimensional Mythic NOW notch in Time’s cooperative -(-0) co-engaging eco-political communion flow. .
