Premium Member Tribute To Women

To you, O women great, in obeisance, I bow,
For your primary forms of mother, sister, mate;
Full of love, patience, kindness and compassion, how,
The almighty has adorned you with goodness great;
As planners and arrangers, today, you excel,
As big bosses chiefs and heads, powers vast you wield;
Teachers, officers, authors - In all you seem good,
Care, caution and concern - with you go very well,
As economists, to homes and globe, wealth you yield;  
In your head and heart, virtues reside as they should...! 

Incarnation of love! You’re my inspiration!
Visionary you are; your views always outshine; 
So beautiful! True jewel of any nation!
In forms of goddess, you dwell-in many a shrine;
Your perfection permeates limits of the sky,
Your determination deepest of depth pierces;
In patience is like the forbearing mother earth!
Your optimism outgrows the very palm tree, high,
Your trustworthiness, every painful hearts, nurses,
Honesty and loyalty, in you, find no dearth...!

In integrity, O women, you're never less,
Sense of wit and humor in life you never lack;
With grace of forgiveness you raze all hatred-mess,
Your nature of nurturing heals each psychic crack;
Your encouragements make the humanity grow;
Your fun and frolics, happiness in hearts, blossom,
In facing hardest of challenges, you've no match!
Thoughts and feelings in you, like the gentlest breeze, blow,
There lies constant comfort in your benign bosom;
Wisdom and wit, with you, merrily, get attach...!

You've been the source of all human origin,
Wombs that have given birth to global history;
In, form of, immaculate virgin with no sin,
You've brought the redeemer, full of mystery;
It's hence; I extol you, dear women, to the heights, 
Strength and power of the universe hides in you;
Creating, protecting, destroying each power!
Hills mountains, vales, landscapes and all marvelous sights,
Earth and ether were born by feminine strength too,
My wish is to be your friend each-and-every hour...!

Understaffed

Every place is understaffed
So managers are trying
To hire more workers, but it seems
That no one is applying.

Economists are mystified
For this is something new
And experts all have theories
But there’s not much they can do.

It sounds like many laborers
Were miserable at work
And being forced to stay at home
Turned out to be a perk.

Without a job to get to
Transit costs just disappeared
And with government assistance
Life was not what most had feared.

They made do without the hassles
Of tough jobs with little pay,
So when openings resumed, so many
Shrugged and just said, “Hey!

Why return to all the stresses?”
Which is why no one can fill
All those jobs which people hated
And I doubt they ever will.

Premium Member Fighting For Fairness

Liberty is not a synonym for ravenous self-determination.
For every freedom to grow
there is a reciprocal freedom from incursion.

When our individual or national purpose
reduces self-with-other mutual determination
and reiterative processes of evolving redetermination
down to autonomous libertarianism
as freedom from infringements,
then our pursuit of happiness
is no longer concomitant with our hopes for growing health,
and our pursuit of wealth-hoarding freedoms
becomes idolatrously removed from unifying roots
of equal democratic liberties of and for all,
freedom to optimize wealth of health,
happiness through mutually nurturing freedoms.

Selfishly autonomous determination,
articulating cause for self-justifying violence,
delineating causes of nationalism's self-without-other exterminations,
is not the original intent of democratic healthy purpose,
is heading toward monoculturing degeneration instead,
the opposite of multiculturing regenerate freedoms
to pursue our mutually optimizing wealth
of health. 

Beware economists and politicians who speak of growing freedoms
yet remain silent about both personal and public prerequisite investments
in history's nondual development
of healthy wealth
as wealth for regenerating health
of multi-generations.

Beware of those who advocate your freedom
to self-optimize,
freed of cooperative mutual tax investments
while hiding our collective responsibilities
to cooperatively own healthy authorities
for recycling Earth's most deeply resonant integrity
of health-wealthing democratic values,
Yang's ego-centric freedom to love
Yin's eco-centric freedom from oppression,
suppression,
repression,
depression
sunk by patriarchal hubris
of anthro self-determination.

Pursuit of global liberty
is not a safe cover story,
much less a synonym,
for self with other interdependent determinations
of and for cooperatively growing wealth,
further investing in Earth's culture of integral health.

Elitist pursuits of self-determination
disguised as synonymous with complex freedom networks
thrusting anthro-authority over eco-responsibility,
has brought us to this precipice of climate pathology,
and not shared integrity
of healthy global climates.


Premium Member The Salt of the Earth

The Salt of the Earth

Who is the Salt of the Earth?
Is it Pakistani musicians making music with pyramids and suffering?
Is it Pakistani musicians finding suffering in heart problems and untimely 
hospital stays?
Is it Jordanian warriors tied to their culture, but yearning for the love of the world?
Is it soft hearted geniuses doubting their own efficacy but yet affirming my soul?

Who is the Salt of the Earth?
Is it Divinity Students weighted down by the complexities of a God who would 
forsake the downtrodden?
Or good hearted economists calling them commies?
Is it bow tie wearing conservatives who feed my mind yet bring a wry smile?
Is it Lesbian ethics professors who wage war on injustice?

Who is the Salt of the Earth?
Is it Jewish prophets of industry who volunteer to fight on the front lines and 
receive stress and conflict in return?
Is it Jewish prophets of industry who write with courage and integrity to 
publishers who shun the very idea of the Divine?
Is it cross wearing angels of administration who work behind close doors of 
schedules and student suffering?

Who is the Salt of the Earth?
Is it Buddhist clinicians who start health care programs and help the unfeeling to 
feel?
Is it loving pastors who pray with sincerity and conviction?
Is it a woman on the street teaching the rest of us to be grateful?
Or is it some wonderful euphony?
Or is it some wonderful euphony of people in conflict, yet all serving the same 
goal?
Or is it some wonderful sound, as a sweet incense that though we refuse to 
understand each other or consider the others vantage, together because our 
hearts are good,
Together because our hearts are good.
Together because our hearts are good, we become a sound.
We become the sound of rushing water, and preserve the earth as one.

Coping With Hard Economic Times

Coping With Hard Economic Times

By Elton Camp

Each new generation was richer than the one before
But it looks like that will never be the case anymore

It seems young families might as well expect to see
What economists now describe as the “new reality”

Their parents came to have a house and a nice car
It will be hard for most young folks to go that far

The jobs that are available have become very few
And of a type that only minimal wages are due

Benefits largely have become a thing of the past 
As have pensions that an entire lifetime will last

Many jobs that were available to Americans before
Have now be “outsourced” to some foreign shore

Most manufacturing plants have now been closed
So China can dominate the market, unopposed

Even if people, more are quite willing to pay
Little is found that has been “Made in the USA”

Premium Member Why Is It

Why is it:

we plant gardens
but we garden plants?

we call natural medicines drugs
and we call unnaturally produced drugs medicines?

we label our disease-addicted corporate-insurance complex
a humane "health care system"?

we prefer fetal alcohol syndrome, pickled livers, and dead drunk outcomes
to THC induced probable failure to ever develop yet another over-yanged Type A personality,
with an antisocial proclivity for sprouting pickled livers and other deadly outcomes?

we tend to respond to uninvited Type B personality invitations
with Type A fully-alert personalities,
yet we respond to uninvited Type A demands
with Type B laissez-faire, neglect, and cognitively hypnotized languishing?

the older our nation grows
the younger our culture appears to prefer?

we pay more and more to elect politicians
who produce positive economic priorities and outcomes less and less?

the louder and longer I persist in persuading you of my wisdom
the shorter and softer grows your attention span
and capacity to hear me?

we produce prodigious amounts of dispossession destined for the trash
yet we seldom intend to ever possess and take ownership of our future trash?

Business As Usual economists respond to eco-logical health
as if their home eco-nomial turf were some alien crazy wealth?

domineering competitive Business As Usuals
fail to see we are a sustainable cooperative economy's
most significant source for disinvestment
away from Earth design health 
and resilient development wealth?

we seldom have enough time to notice and appreciate new places and faces
but we drag through ponderous time invested in the same ol' retiring spaces?

if some communication event between two people
is called a transaction
then we think "economics,"
but if some communication event between two non-humans
is called a relationship
then we think "ecology"?

that digital information is always binary
but polynomial information is not assumed to also flow binomially balanced?

we invest in gardening well-crowned edible and ornamental gardens
but we often find it prudent
to nationalistically divest
of co-evolving nutrition-rooted Earth?


Going To the Desert

Going to the desert
Trying to remember your name
Pondering your gift
Was it all in vain


The three wise monkey's
Light up their spliff's
Human beings turn into lemmings
And gather at the cliff's


Going to the desert
Trying to remember your name
Pondering your gift
Was it all in Vain


Economists play a hot tune
As the blind mice dance
As the beat builds
Everyone is caught in a trance


Going to the desert
Trying to remember your name
Pondering your gift
Was it all in vain


The bankers want a pound of flesh
But they say they don't want blood
Tell that to the poor
When they gentrify their neighbourhood


Going to the desert
Trying to remember your name 
Pondering your gift
Was it all in vain


Lord above forgive  us
For our considerable  shame
We know not , what , we do
We just play the game


Going to the desert
Trying to remember your name
Pondering your gift
Was it all in vain

Rosicrucian Utopia

“God of all beings
 God of all life
 in the humanity we
 are dreaming of:
 Politicians are profoundly humanistic and
 strive to serve the common good;
 Economists manage state finances with
 discernment and in the interest of all;
 Scientists are spiritualistic and seek
 their inspiration in the Book of Nature;
 Artists are inspired and express the beauty and
 purity of the Divine Plan in their works;
 Physicians are motivated by love for
 their fellow-beings and treat both
 the soul and the body;
 Misery and poverty have vanished
 for everyone has what
 one needs to live happily;
 Work is not regarded as a chore
 it is looked at as a source
 of growth and well-being;
 Nature is considered to be the most
 beautiful temple of all, and animals
 are considered to be our brothers and
 sisters on the path of evolution;
 A World Government composed
 of the leaders of all nations
 working in the interest
 of all humanity
 has come into existence
 Spirituality is an ideal and a way of life
 which springs forth from a
 Universal Religion, founded more upon
 the knowledge of divine laws than
 upon the belief in God;
 Human relations are founded upon love
 friendship, and community, so that
 the whole world lives in peace and harmony.”

 read a few more books, and you too, can find higher words of wisdom and
 humanity... although it appears this consciousness dwells only in a book... sorry
 state of affairs for the mockery, that you monkeys, are making of your Creator
 Father...

SANDIP GOSWAMI, INDIA

Premium Member Co-Redeemer Vocations Needed

Naturally regenerative
living systems,
like Earth
optimize global ecological opportunities
as co-redemptive economies
of loving solidarity relationships
expressing mutual not-negative subsidiarity,
within a web of interdependent Win-Win default networks.

If we are born passionate investments 
of past yang/yin regenerations
redeeming economic risks
weighed as ecological opportunity
for pleasuring pleasant peace 
with active love for all species,
all nature,
all Earth,
all Universal Intelligence,
then are we also,
at least potentially,
an interdependent species 
of co-redeeming economists
thinking and acting and relating and feeling
sensing and feeling and smelling and tasting
touching and respecting and appreciating ecologically balanced reasons,
seasons of time and pattern and rhythm?
Where fasting advents precede 
and roundly follow
cornucopic polycultural seasons for all cells 
and organelles.

We find and sustain co-therapeutic relationship balance
half way between Yang-ego's deductive-reductive immunity boundaries
and Yin-eco's intuitive receptive co-operativity,
co-redemptivity,
correlation-ability,
mutual empathic gratitude
polypathic trans-actional multisystemic relationships.

If co-redeemers are messiahs
then we are also mutual bodhisattvas
as we intend cooperative Win-Win eco-normative salvation 
and eco-logically therapeutic outcomes.

Perhaps mutual messiahs find it simpler to wrestle with,
rather than against death's pain and suffering,
to figure out what to divest of
by reconnecting within each moment's present opportunity
to what and whom and when and where and why we invest integratively
with each Other's health and well-being,
co-redemptive economically rational, yet passionate, logic,
as well as Right-brain's intuitive temperate sense of balance,
proportion,
enthymematic syntax 
permaculturing rooted rhythms
of mindful songs
and global dance.

Ego's Logos as co-determinate partner
with Eco's Right-brain Mythos
co-redemptive political design
re-creating economic developmental revolutions.

Why Aren'T You Saving More For Retirement

Why Aren’t You Saving More for Retirement?

By Elton Camp

Economists are giving a tongue-lashing
Good sense of the public they’re trashing

Unless much more for retirement you save
You’ll have to work till you’re in your grave

Company pensions went the way of the dodo
Once they realized how much they would owe

But most workers have to face wage stagnation
From medical bills there is incredible inflation

Housing costs get higher every day
Food prices are going the same way

College debts many will have to pay
Until they’ve become old and gray

Too much month for the money anyway
How can they save for some future day?

Namaz For Wests Values

I don't know, 
weather God speaks on English or not? 
But that is exceptionally important
for us  
learning as quickly as possible
this exellent tool
for business, global managment, 
human rights and honestly governing - 
for the sake our salvation, independence and prosperity.

Had better if we were prayed on English, 
as our grandfathers turned for God through Arabia, 
and late learned to create namaz for Kremlin and Communizm  on Russian.

O great Lord, 
who are lived everywhere and nowhere.
Bless us 
the same way as did it for US
that have ruled by unknown leaders
and with firmly hand of democrasy
since the end of XVIII centure
whem fathers of american freedom 
proclamed independence of states,
as  the Germany and Japan after World War II,
conveyed to free sociate
by westerns generals and economists, 
as the Singapore
in the hard hand of Lee Quan,
gone for freedom,
we are ready live short  time 
under ruling someone like Pinochet,
if  he really know where to go. 

Please, great Lord,
you just not leave us
and our children, grand chiuldren
with the fundamentalists,
postcommunists, imperialists
and others maniacs of history.
