Rev. Gerald Dillenbeck Poet Narrative

Thanksgiving-Us-Forward

This is Thanksgiving Day, 
so I want to continue my interior conversation, 
made perhaps too exterior, 
by quoting from Sacred Economics, p. 123, (Charles Eisenstein)
about "flow of abundance," my nuance in brackets:

"Please understand here that I do not mean to deter you from opening to the flow 
of abundance. 
To the contrary--
because when enough people do this, 
the money 
[and health] 
system will change 
to conform to the new [cooperative] belief 
[in optimizing health as wealth]. 

Today's money system rests on a foundation 
of [winner v loser] Separation. 
It [disassociation]
is as much an effect as it is a cause 
of our perception [and evolutionary enculturation] 
that we are discrete and separate subjects 
in a universe that is Other. 

Opening to abundance can only happen when we let go 
of this [ego- and anthro-centric] identity 
and open to the richness of our true, 
[Earth]connected being. 
This new [co-arising] identity wants no part of usury." 
[but is drawn intuitively and rationally 
to (0)-interest co-operative, 
regenerative,
co-invested, 
primal, 
ego-health is eco-wealth co-passion.]
