Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."

There is much wrong with this book.  There is much wrong with Einstein's work, as he'd be the first to say, but both are so far ahead of all other comparable works that, well, they are like gold, like perfect truth which they are not.  But they are like that.

For the direction that it points, this may be the most important book in existence for the future of humanity.

Read it, and don't stop where it ends.  Use it as a point of departure.

"Jesus Before Christianity," Albert Nolan

It is time to resurrect Him after 1800 years being Crucified, mutilated, buried by Constantine, and the cHURCH these last 1800 years.  For Him?  No.  For YOU?  No.  He was the Einstein of Universal Family,  Universal Love.  There's been no Einstein like Him, before or since. This is one of the only books I know that can make You an agent of Saving Humanity - Averting Ecocide.

It's up to you.

From wiki -

Nolan became famous for his 1976 book, Jesus before Christianity, in which he presented an account of Jesus' radical involvement in the struggle for full humanity in the context of first-century Palestine: he "challenged the rich to identify in solidarity with the poor, a spirituality of solidarity that resonated with white Catholics seeking a new, progressive direction" (Egan 1999). The book was translated into nine languages, and a 15th anniversary edition appeared in the early 1990s.
Nolan published his second major work, God in South Africa in 1988. At one point during the writing process he 'went underground' to hide from the Security Forces during the State of Emergency in South Africa. God in South Africa is a primary example of contextual theology: written as a theology for that particular moment, without a claim to its possible relevance in other times and places. In 2006, Nolan published his Jesus Today: A Spirituality of Radical Freedom (Orbis Books).

From a note to a Good Friend:

*  "We are smart to keep sensible limits on our Hearts, because if we

didn't, our lives would be destroyed!  But what we don't face in that

is that in keeping sensible limits on our Hearts our Lives (capital L),

our Spirit of Loving, IS DESTROYED, or at best Crippled, and near

all of us, down very, very, very deep... know that our Spirit of Loving

IS, =, IS our Life!  "He who would hold onto his life, will lose it; he

who would lose their life for the neediest, gains their Life."  Now, that

Jesus said it proves nothing, anymore than Einstein saying something

proves anything.  But they are usually correct, in both cases.

'I've spoken of my last 4 days Depression. MUCH to be Depressed about.' Loving

"If you seek to hold on to your life, you will Lose it.  If you Lose your life for the sake of Our Neediest Family, you will Gain your Life!"  Jesus.

Jesus, whatever else he was, was the only full Einstein Equivalent of psychology we've had.  The rest of mention, in that field - Alfred Adler and Viktor Frankl, Maslow, Csikszentmihalyi - were/are great, but Jesus was/is the Einstein of how our DNA given circuits work.  And the above quote is the relentlessly overlooked, buried, distorted, discounted... Truth of where Joy, Peace of Heart, Passion and Loving find - and I've been one of the lucky ones to Live that Truth near every breath of my last dozen year's worth.  Heaven.  The Universe, the Spirit, of Universal Loving.

But as I've shared, I went SLAM off the Path these recent days as my external world turned upside down just a little too much, and a little too fast, for me to catch before the, well, SLAM! *****01.25.13 My Personal Agony of late - I'm minding the Creator's Business, not my own. LOL.
I've pretty well regained my footing, which looks like it will be firmly in place within a few more days now.

Central to what I did that caused SLAM was looking outside my own efforts for gratification.  Yes, that is what we do in this culture, but it is not what I've learned to do in many ears now.  Oh, obviously I make it my business to know far more than most, and infinitely more than I did in my earlier decades, BUT I DON'T MAKE IT MY BUSINESS WHAT HAPPENS, just what I DO about it; cept for my footslip of recent days.  Argh!

Anyway, oh my God, how depressing.  Our 'today's Republicans, clinically, they are raving maniac savages, barbarians, sub-humans - my brothers and sisters all.

• Arming to the teeth to defeat 'invading' US Soldiers?!?!?!??!  
• Hating the most Christ-like among us, Pr. Obama, and yearning for his bloody death?  
• Trashing 200 years of Democratic Precedent in the Senate?  
• Insane with Horror and Rage over the most Loving, CENTRIST, AMERICA INCLUSIVE SPEECH by Pr. Obama Monday?  
• Trying with all their might to RIG THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION by destroying hundreds of years of precedent on the Electoral College?  
• ...WHILE EVERY BREATH OF EACH OF US SHOULD BE DEVOTED AT WAR-TIME EFFORT AND MAGNITUDE AND SELFLESSNESS TO AVERTING ECOCIDE IN THE FEW SECONDS WE HAVE LEFT TO DO SO?!?!?!?!

OH MY GOD.  Remember how Mr. Coffey in "The Green Mile" asked not to avoid his execution?  'I'M TIRED.  ALL THIS EVIL IS LIKE GLASS CRUNCHING AROUND IN MY BRAIN.'

Well, had Mr. C been on the Path Jesus died to lead us to, he'd not have made that choice.  But he'd still have had the Agony, the broken glass crunching around in his brain, in his Heart, all the time, as do I, as should you; and if you did, it would propel you to levels of Passion, Life, Action, Loving... - that you'd be Ecstatic for; which is where you'll find me soon again, Creator willing.

BTW, Clinically, according to Abe Maslow, head of the American Psychological Association in the late 60's, to NOT be somewhat Depressed at such times of horror, is, well, Insane.

Also today: 01.26.13 Chemo again looking unlikely. Seems on Living arrangements I was way optimistic. My bad.

***** 01.03.13 Ecocide's Death Fast Day 1: Solidarity with Theresa Spence, Diane Wilson

 [ZERO endorsement, approval, agreement, fore-knowledge, or acceptance by Chief Theresa Spence or Diane Wilson (and here, and here )of me or my action is implied here, nor in any way has it been secured.  Quite possibly, the opposite.  They are not to blame, nor to be held responsible for my actions.  I act entirely on my own, as best I can hear our Creator (same as them, I'll wager).]

' 'Till enough are seen UNVIOLENTLY dying for it, giving 100% of their very being, global warming, Ecocide by GHG, and trampling of such few, remaining, meaningful lives as Earth's Indigenous peoples, won't stop. [You saw Avatar, right?] HOWEVER, WHEN enough are seen dying for it, giving 100% of all that they have and all that they are, UNVIOLENTLY, global warming, Global Ecocide, and trampling of what few meaningful lives that exist... WILL STOP.  IT WILL STOP, THEN.  AND NOTHING LESS, NOTHING ELSE, CAN DO IT, before what tiny hope that exists now, is lost, forever.' Loving ("Global Warming's Death, Fast.")

Yes, this is my 3rd Death Fast, 39 days, then 5 days, in 2012  (here, and here). These came on the heals of two, 50 day water only hunger strikes in front of the White House, to avert Global Ecocide by GHG, in 2011. A Death Fast is not some macabre, perverted commitment to die, anymore than a weapon of mass destruction is a commitment to mass destroy.  Both are weapons of ultimate power - one to destroy, the other to Create; one a weapon of ultimate Violence, the other a weapon of ultimate Loving.  Sometimes, they go unused.  Sometimes tests, even if unplanned, as were my 1st two, unexpectedly.  Sometimes launched, but aborted.  Sometimes launched, and allowed to reach their target.  Sometimes irresponsibly used, or hollowly threatened - neither of which have I ever, nor will I ever do.

204 billion kids ARE my life, 200 billion to be born, 4 billion alive already.  They're dead, tortured, eviscerated...  already, unless we change things now.  Now.  NOW. TODAY. 2013.  Yes, 40 years ago, when the US Government's Lincoln-created advisory panel, the National Institute of Science warned the President that global warming was the greatest threat ever to face humanity... was our last great, clear, near 100% chance to save our kids.  But we've done nothing since then, we the keepers of our children - we've done nothing but make our own lives, like vultures...

So here we are (watch it.  Click lwr right of vid field for full screen.  Plse, watch it.):

 

 ... uh, did I mention - HERE WE ARE???

7 months ago it was clear to me that if there was enough sanity left on earth to Wage All-out Unviolent War, Waging Love, with their own bodies, to stop Global Ecocide by GHG, it was among our Indigenous Nations - Canadian (Athabascan, esp), US, Island Nations, Alaskan, Amazonian, South American, Asian...; and they and their children are the earliest victims, as usual.  This came clear to me during my 1st Death Fast in the spring of 2012.  I ended the 2nd Death Fast last summer, because I saw that there was no Life, no Humanity left on 2012 earth, that it already was a Dead planet, even among our Indigenous... too completely Dead for my Death Fast to do any good, and NONE OF US are to throw our lives away.  Including me.  EVER.  ("Resurrecting your Unviolent Warrior").

But now I see four things:

1.  Life among the Indigenous, I think - Chief Theresa Spence,  dle no more....

2.  Life elsewhere, such as  Diane Wilson.

3.  Clearly now I see - 'Unless the seed dies, and falls to earth, it bears no fruit,' Jesus.  The anti-apartheid movement was Dead in South Africa until Steve Biko (1977) and others Died, and fell to earth 16 YEARS before apartheid fell... and then there was Life.  Blacks lynched, Died in the US 1930's, Seeds that bore fruit 20, 30 years later in the '50's and '60's.  Tunisian alight before the Arab Spring.   Buddhist Monks alight in the early-mid1960's to stop the Vietnam Genocide half a decade later....  I've seen this pattern for years.  I've wondered if I was ever to be one of these Seeds.  I've not been able to see myself as that till now.  I think I do now.  Pretty clearly.  I Pray, that I may be Prayer, a Seed, in time.

4.  There is no more  time.  Unless the Indigenous UNVIOLENT uprising, Waging Love with their OWN BODIES, is beginning, there's no more time.    NONE.  The physics is, about a 20% chance it is already too late to stop.  Uh, did I mention, here we are?  (watch all 30 min.  Trust me.)



Will there be a Death Fast 4 form me?  The one I began last night, is number 3 for me.

What is a Death Fast, anyway?  Well, here's the book I wrote on it: here (see tabs above) .  But it is a Hunger Strike where an end victory cannot be seen in time to save the Death Faster, and the Faster's Death is a perfectly acceptable, and the most likely outcome.  It is a decision to be a Seed, if that is what in the end is the best way to serve.  It is the ultimate statement of all perfect Unviolent warfare: 'I am here to collect what is rightfully mine ( in this case - legislation to charge NOW, the $250 / ton of GHG that currently is being 'billed' to our kids in the future - see vid), a future for my 204 billion kids.  And if the price for that is my life, I'm perfectly happy to pay it!  Right now.'

Death Fast NEVER is a decision to die!  It is a decision to serve with one's last breath, in my case, the Mission of the virtually impossible averting of Global Ecocide by GHG,  with ONE'S LAST BREATH, WITH 100% OF WHAT ONE IS, IN THE MOST PROMISING, POWERFUL (REGARDLESS OF HOW UNLIKELY) WAY POSSIBLE.  ('If the idea is not absurd, it has no hope.' Einstein paraphrase).  Death Fast is the ultimate weapon of the Unviolent Soldier, and it has the potential to Bear the Fruit of other Unviolent Warriors.  In Steve Biko's case, 5, 10 years later.  We don't have 5, 10 years.  We don't have 5, 10 months:



But I can't change that.  I can only change me.  And so I shall continue to try, with every breath.

I wonder how this will turn out.

Until in 60 or so days from now when I expect that they cart me away, I expect to remain at the now 7 month old 22/7 vigil in front of the DC Canadian Embassy taking vitamin, Iron (for my cancer-driven anemia to reduce the torturous restless-leg syndrome that results otherwise), and zero calorie electrolytes when available.  I may retreat physically for a few days or weeks, if friends in Philly will take me, cart me up and back) during the security of the Inauguration - I'm smack dab in the middle of Pr. Obama's route, LOL; but the Death Fast would continue uninterrupted.

The greatest, foundational Hope of MLK Jr, and Gandhi, our two greatest unvololent warriors of recent history, was in the Teachings of the man named Jesus, (  Tolstoy ).  Mine too.  I've been re-immersed in study of His teachings these recent months to be a Prayer of channeling His Teachings to my Life, and into this Lifeless, Hopeless age.  I expect to continue doing so, and to attempt to study and channel as well the Lives and Teachings of Gandhi, MLK Jr, Teresa of Calcutta, the Freedom Riders, and some of the other Wise we've been given.

I see no other hope, and no other Path for me that is nearly as promising for my 204 billion kids.

God, PLEASE Save their Souls.  By all indications, WE WILL NOT.
