Unsanctuaried Souls

I currently conjoin with AllSouls, a sacred green communion of saints and sometimes sinners. A few live together, couples, extending families reaching multiculturally out through AllSoul roots regenerating pasts, transforming future generations now repressed by fear of global climate pathology as thick and toxic as lose/lose ecopolitical nihilistic soup, thin survivalist Rapture-gruel, paranoid hope in Hail Mary magic. Most Souls live apart but actively search for significant others from within communal enculturing walls, this Green Sanctuary of compassionate win/win hope. Some find just one significant spiritual/natural nondualistic Other. Others find more. A few have, to date, found none within because already over-invested, or just right and left infested, in Souls without this Green Sanctuary cooperative of climate health communities. We share an interdependent norm inviting personal restraint against choosing too many Significant Others, lest their significance to you dissipate into complex insignificance, chaotic lack of forward co-passions, over-scheduled communion communication events, constant sacred/secular communal celebrations of nondualistic dual muses, constantly talking and listening to insider un-invoices While outside significant other choices continue Earth's seasonal celebrations without our even AllSouls noticing appreciating inviting hosting serving Significant OtherSouls. This year we are planning to rebuild our Green Sanctuary. During this reconstruction time, somewhere between forty years and forty days, we will become a migrant people again, seeking returns to our multicultural communion roots. Some Souls will stay with AME cousins. Some will hang out in Green Synagogues and Temples and Mosques and Native FireCircles. A few, more prophetically inclined, will revisist uncomfortable left-brain dominant Fundamentalists who barely trust even God to Father an understudied and unserved Goddess EarthMother. Evangelists still claiming God cannot be both transcendentally omnipotent unchanging Yang and yet intimately fluid ecofeminist omnipresent compassionate yinternal Holonic Spirit of left with right brain interdependent sacred win/win Souls for healing growing left-brain climate pathological runaway voices, Glutted with punishing trends, sins of power-lust Fathers inflicting absence of sacred significant Other future compassionate mothers and dads restoring great-grandchildren health, failing to thrive as truly Christian communions, Souls of and for rapturous Green Compassion. During this multicultural migrant Time, we will regather on Sunday afternoons to plan how we will interfaith heal our multiculturing divisions to restore our polypathic multiplications of healthy watered fish and wealthy slow-raising bread kneading and healing past absence of significant Other green commmunions with active win/win designs for personal familial communal local subclimates of ego/ecotherapeutic global AllSoul Sanctuary, Freshly returned from migrant communions with our interfaith healthy and significant OtherSouls, no longer living quite so LeftBrain far apart.
