Sacred Ecology of Game Theory

The healthiest and wealthiest ecological objective of designing and playing life is to optimize potential for continuing reiterative plays and transactions as long as possible. Win-Lose EitherEgo/OrEco ZeroSum monopolies, such as bottom-line competitive capitalism and bullying quickly devolve, diminish down to one supremacist ego-political Winner. Yet then this relentlessly Might Makes Right game is over, and so this Winner only wins to lose the entire cooperative gaming network. Win-Win BothEgo/AndEco NotNot Positive Zero-Sum double-binding equivalency norms, such as Golden Ruled, optimize options of Tit-for-Tat reiterative continuous healthy and "wrapping in" or "creolizing" inclusive, gifting-forward, delayed mutual reward, robust continuity, unto perpetuity of this same naturally cooperative gaming network. Yin-Messianism is too often confused with over-Yanged zealotry, with Win-Lose Zionism as nationalistic patriotism, in which should our nationalistic pretensions of elitism Lose, such as losing a Vietname War, for example, then YHWH has also lost, suffered a demi-death. Win-Lose zealotry of nationalism will, if too over-grazing successful, predict its own idolatrous fall from sacred grace. Continous matriarchal-cooperative creolism, polyculturalism, multiculturalism lies between Yin-rooted defenseless messianism and Yang over-shot. totalitarian nationalistic, defensive zealotry. It is possible to have a healthy interdependent national ientity culture, but it would be as matriotic as patriotic, it would not be discontinuously-supremacist nationalistic, it would be co-messianic, multiculturally cooperative messianic, looking for syncretic uniting nations nurturing healthy Earth climates and landscapes with polyculturally regenerative outcomes. It is possible to avoid messiah complexes, whether personally or ecopolitically public as naked elitist patriots, by recognizing we are a co-messianic patriotic/matriotic species for waging Bodhisattva peace and mutual mercy. Messiah complexes are essentially and idolatrously egocentric, about what I can do to save the less free and/or loyal and/or pure world; co-messianism is about what we are One-MindBody doing together to co-redeem this creolizing recreative EarthTribe. "[Elitist-purist] permaculture is not the [polyculturally cooperative game] landscape, or even the skills of [healthy] organic gardening, sustainable [ecotherapeutic consuming-producing] farming, energy [informational] efficient [natural] building or eco-village [or eco-international matriarchal-cooperative ownership] development as such. But it [co-messianic polyculturally positive-healthy outcomes] can be [cooperatively and transculturally] used to [democratically] design, [nondually co-arise] establish, manage and [co-empathically trust] improve these and all other [double-binding WinWin] efforts made by [YangLeft/YinRight balancing] individuals, households and communities [and nations] towards a sustainable [multiculturally healthy and democratically safe, co-redemptive ecopolitical] future." David Homgren, "Permaculture: Principles and Pathways Beyond Sustainability [of Nationalistic Patriarchal OverYanged Patriotism] The healthiest objective of playing long sacred life is to optimize WinWin relationships. speaking of an individual organism and an individual interdependent nation.
