When is Poverty Wealth? Hunger Fullness? Vulnerability Safety? Failure Success?

When? When you are BEING Universal Love.

Oh, what a tragedy that most will understand this as mystical, some trick of words, something obscure, religious, a "belief system." It is no more any of these than is the Truth that sand is unpleasant to chew.

It is so concrete, ordinary for most of us (but on a tragically rare basis), real, obvious (the fish are the last to discover water).... How so? Think of when YOU WERE Universal Love. This is how it WAS for you at those times:
  • Poverty was Wealth
  • Hunger was Fullness
  • Vulnerability was Safety
  • Failure was Success
About the only additional help I can offer regarding this is to say that when I reflect on my recent Hunger Strike / Occupation of Capitol Hill 7/24 all of the these features applied COMPLETELY AND ENTIRELY:
  • Poverty: I was devoid of all resources. Wealth was EVERY MOMENT my experience, without qualification. Wealth of Meaning - the Wealth that surpasses all other wealth; the wealth that entirely obscures desire for on interest in ANY other form of wealth (all if which is by the design of our nervous system, inferior).
  • Hunger: Hmmmm, yup, the hunger signals are shouted by the body on Hunger Strike. Fullness, NOT HUNGER, was what filled my consciousness, virtually, practically ALL THE TIME. At MOST there were fleeting seconds when there was a competition between the Pangs and the Fullness of Consciousness/Spirit.
  • Vulnerability: 2am, tarp over my head, strange noises I can't see or identify, some crazy about to bash a brick into my skull and run? Safety, and nothing else was what I ever felt. Safety, Complete and Utter Safety, knowing that I was doing at that moment what Humanity, and even what the potential "crazy" needed me to be doing at that moment.
  • Failure: 38 days of work, "suffering," "sacrifice," and what to show for it? NOTHING. Total Success was and is my feeling about it, completely, every moment. I did everything I could. There IS no feeling of Success that can surpass knowing you did EVERYTHING you could regarding something of Ultimate Importance. And, EVERY OTHER FORM OF "SUCCESS" FALLS EMBARRASSINGLY SHORT OF THIS.
Beyond the above, if you can't see what's being said here, you are simply not trying hard enough. No, I'm not criticizing you, I'm encouraging you to spend the time to see this. And, yes, I'm sorry but I don't have time to do your work for you. The concept in this Post is a key to the TRUE WEALTH available in Life; the ONLY TRUE WEALTH AVAILABLE GIVEN OUR DNA DEFINED AND CONSTRAINED NERVOUS SYSTEM.

Jesus' Sense of Urgency - The Work is like Planting Seeds on a Battle Field

So much of what Jesus taught has such an urgency to it - the Virgins that should remain awake; the Servants that should remain awake; the rich man who's life was taken that night; THE SON OF MAN HAS NOWHERE TO REST HIS HEAD....

My understanding of what Jesus was telling us just made a monumental leap. Of course I've known, really my whole life, that Jesus was NOT telling us about some Heaven AFTER we die. That's rubbish. No! Jesus died to show us Heaven in THIS life. Of course.

So these parables with such sense of urgency were NOT about winning an afterlife ticket. So what ARE they about?

Jesus was telling us a central feature of our work; that is, our opportunity for Life! The field in which we sew Universal Love is a constantly shifting battle field on which the battle is raging. Period. Always. IT IS NEVER NOT A BATTLE FIELD WITH WAR RAGING AROUND US. When the bullets are being fired on the right, we dash and sew on the left; when the firing is on the left, we dash and sew on the right, and so on.

Now that I stay on or close to the Path, life is SO LIKE THIS! Where I am welcome one second, the door slams the next. When a heart is open to receive one second, it is slammed shut the next. When meager resources, funds, equipment, whatever are available one second they are obliterated the next. Until the Kingdom reigns, this is how it is for those who's religion is Universal Love.

This is important and helpful for me to know. Otherwise I would have the tendency to blame myself for such extreme instability. No. It is the nature of the battle of Life we have the Privilege and Joy to pursue.

Our opportunity, our ONLY Opportunity is to embrace our role as Medics on the Raging Battlefield of Life. The alternative, embraced by almost all is the Purgatory/Hell of the drone, the zombie, the degenerate.

StartL has no social, casual or "personal" relationships, and this will not change. A few treasured working relationships, yes.

Hey, it is not my intention to hurt you, or anyone, EVER.

I don't have personal relationships.  Any.  I don't have social relationships or interactions, any.  I don't have casual relationships or interactions, any.  I don't ask these of anyone and I don't offer these to anyone.

I do have a few, warm working relationships with select, relatively focused and intense Peace Workers.  Why?  Strictly because it helps advance the missions I devote my life to, and or theirs.

My entire life, and my entire time is focused on Peace Work, the most strategically important and hopeful I can connect with at any moment in time. I don't ask anyone to personally chat with me, and I never offer it myself. 

I live on a bloody, battlefield with dead and dying children all around, in the middle of an ongoing attack on the survivors.  I am always there.  I am NEVER not there, regardless of how it might appear to others, and whether they see the battlefield and ongoing slaughter.

I write this in an attempt to minimize whatever pain my non response to "what are you watching," last night.

I don't need you to understand, but I've offered this in an attempt to help you understand if you want, and maybe be less hurt by my response.

I'm strictly business; I'm only business, I'm never not business. 

I don't ask anyone to like that or me, and the vast majority in all camps do not.  But that is how it is with me and how it will stay.

Your brother forever, no matter what,

Fw: StartL is nothing but a failure. And it's Heaven.

Beloved Sister,

Just to share with you, there are, and for years now in my life, there has been nothing really but a long string of "failures" in my life.  At least, truly, that is how any but the most "enlightened" observers would have to view my life.  You are lucky, in a way, to get the occasional "tail wagging," or friendly "deer in the yard" encouragements and rewards.  But with me God has pretty well chosen to just keep on stripping me of resources, support, safety, security, RESULTS.... 

And Sister, I'm perfectly fine with that, to my surprise and amazement. And, I don't think it was (or IS) much different for Jesus!   I know I am doing what She/He/It wants me to do.  And that is my reward.  And it is better than anything, all the riches and pleasures I was born to and gorged on most of my life.  It IS Life, and the other was trash.

Now mind you, God connecting me with you and a very few others is an incredible Blessing and Joy.  But the 99.999% of my life that is NOT spent with you is.... Heaven (AND Hell).

It is that being filled with God / Universal Love - well it is like swimming in it, Yes?  This is Heaven, if we are careful to find it, and Enter In.

Love you.


"President Obama better watch his back." [Cuz WE'RE not going to, right!?]

http://www.examiner.com/x-2383-Honolulu-Exopolitics-Examiner~y2009m3d9-Obama-takes-on-the-black-budget
The Memorandum signals Obama's determination to cut down on wasteful government practices. In following through on his determination, President Obama better watch his back. He is challenging the most powerful vested interests in the U.S. – those behind black budget funding of highly classified projects that totally escape legislative oversight and media scrutiny.

If you value this "Subscription" suggest it to others. We've very little time left.

What's the worst thing you've ever seen in your career?
On an egg farm, it's very, very normal to see live hens thrown in the trash. If you spin them around to break their necks like they tell you to, that doesn't always cause cervical dislocation. So you just kind of throw them away live in the trash. You'll always come across birds that are barely breathing, missing all their feathers, all bloody in the trash. You never get completely desensitized to that.

Have you ever walked away from an assignment because it's just too hard to be there?
Never.



SF CHRONICLE: Obama taking big political risk with budget [A CRUCIFIXION ! Oh boy!] Yes, I'm goading us.

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/03/07/MNEE16AJT5.DTL  [DAMN US IF WE JUST WATCH]
Amid a cratering stock market, huge job losses and continuing ad hoc bank interventions, President Obama is risking his presidency on the most ambitious remake of the federal government since Ronald Reagan, raising jitters among moderate Democrats and presenting House Speaker Nancy Pelosi with the most daunting challenge of her career.For liberals who fretted just a month ago that Obama was acting suspiciously centrist, his $3.6 trillion budget is a call to arms. It is also a carefully woven matrix that tackles everything from global warming to health care with new spending and taxes.Pull out one piece, be it a quasi-tax on carbon or an end to charitable and mortgage interest deductions by the wealthy, and either the programs unravel or $1 trillion-plus deficits rocket higher.

Rush L. Hopes for Ted Kenedy's Death. DEMAND AN APOLOGY

http://www.americansunitedforchange.org/page/s/kennedy
Yesterday Republican Party leader Rush Limbaugh made an incredibly tasteless remark about Senator Ted Kennedy -- saying that the senator will be dead before health care reform happens. Both Republicans and Democrats in Congress love Senator Kennedy. He's one of the most respected leaders in Washington for his ability to cross the aisle and help working families. We can't let the Republican Party stay silent about Rush's wildly offensive remark.

What would you do if - SUPPORT OF FUNDS, FRIENDS AND FAMILY WERE NO ISSUE? DO THAT NOW!!!!!!

Want to find the path that Jesus, King, Gandhi, Eleanor R., Rosa Parks, God... all gave their lives to help you find?

1.  Meditate on this question for as many minutes, or hours as necessary to arrive at a deep, gut level, heart level answer:  What would you do if - SUPPORT OF FUNDS, FRIENDS AND FAMILY WERE NO ISSUE? 

2.  When you arrive at a strong get sense, BEGIN.  DO THAT NOW!!!!!!, or say goodby to Life, Love, Passion, Meaning, Worth to Humanity, Destiny, Calling, Fulfillment, God...; and say hello to emptiness, sadness, meaninglessness, harmfulness to others (you'll spread the disease), waste of life, joylessness, lifelessness... TRAGEDY.

This is the path to Life traveled by ALLLLLLL that have found It.  Can you think of any exceptions?  There are none.

If students are the hope of a sick society, what does that say of the non-students?

Those of us with even the slightest knowledge of social change in the last 70 years know the central role students play.  Right?

What does that say of we older folk - mid 20's an up?  Not good.  We are the obstacle to the young, counter to Life, Truth, Love.  This is NOT a function of age per se. It is a function of atrophy, and immersion time in the toxic bath of western cultural values, that we must shake off or God damn us for being an obstacle to the future, theirs AND OURS.

They are aLive.  We older tend to die, but that is not what God, that is not what our genes ordain. 

The indispensable intellect Ashley Montague said in the mid 1900's, in his book "Growing Young," and I paraphrase,  "I aspire to die as young as possible, as late in life as I possibly can."

"Lobby days" are a Washington staple. But the one held Monday was unique both for its size and who participated.

More than 12,000 high school- and college-age students attended Power Shift '09, a four-day conference organized by the Energy Action Coalition (EAC), a consortium of environmentalist and progressive student groups, held at the D.C. Convention Center over the weekend.

StartL SLOWING DDDOOOWWWNNNNN

At long last I've done the right thing and returned a laptop I was borrowing.  Should have done it many months ago.  Was not right to keep it so long.
The impact?  I lose half my daily computer time because the time at the Peace Vigil, well, now that is out.  Yes, I can hear the cheering from some.  In any case that is the deal, so all of my 4 sites will suffer.  It is a funny God we have.  Or does something like this happen because we IGNORE that God?

POWER SHIFT 09. "And the children shall lead us." SL finds hope for the first time. As sliver.

StartL, JUST SAW YOU ON NEWS CHANNEL 8 - CLIMATE ACTION / MARCH / PLANT LOCK DOWN

START,

JUST SAW YOU ON NEWS CHANNEL 8, TWO MINUTES AGO :)

AND ACTRESS DARRYL HANNAH. ON THE COAL BURNING ISSUE!

WASHINGTON — More than 2,000 clean-energy activists converged at a coal-fired power plant on Capitol Hill on Monday for a protest they billed as the largest display of civil disobedience on the climate crisis in U.S. history.

Willing to be arrested for their cause, they encircled and blocked entrances to the plant, which powers the U.S. Capitol and House and Senate office buildings.

But this particular plant may be the least of the protesters' worries.

Less than a week before the rally, congressional leaders requested the plant's full conversion to natural gas. Organizers were taking credit.

"There are no gifts in this world," said Vermont author and environmentalist Bill McKibben told a cheering crowd. "There is only organizing and movements and people doing what it takes to make change happen and that's what we're doing."

Obama 'gearing up for a fight' [WATCH him g]]et slaughered!

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0209/19434.html
President Barack Obama is beginning the salesmanship of his far-reaching $3.6 trillion budget with a populist blast at powerful interests he says will fight it – all but challenging his opponents to bring it on.  "I know these steps won't sit well with the special interests and lobbyists who are invested in the old way of doing business, and I know they're gearing up for a fight as we speak," Obama said in his weekly radio address Saturday.

PAINFULLY, I'VE FALLEN SHORT OF BEING AN AUTHORITY... UNTIL NOW...

It has been a great pain for me to be aware that I was not an authority on anything of importance.  An authority over men?  An authority over subject matter FOR men, my sisters and brothers - on matters of Life, Ethics, Morality, the Spirit, Psychology - the entirety of what matters.  Why an agony for me?  Because in the midst of such universal, spiritual carnage only by achieving a level of authority regarding the the disease and its cure was one a hope for cure.  I find myself becoming at long last an authority.  This brings further isolation.  Terrifying.  Jesus must have felt it.  But also a faint hopefulness.  No, no one besides me sees recognizes my authority.  Excruciating. Same with Jesus, and the others.


EVERYTHING is at risk now. That means there is EVERYTHING TO LIVE FOR, more than at any time in human history.

EVERYTHING is at risk now.
That means there is EVERYTHING TO LIVE FOR,
more than at any time in human history.
Today is the best time in human history to be alive.
What a tragedy that practically no one sees this;
or Lives this.
Tragedy.
And soon
it will be
too
late.

'Humanity is certain to do the right thing! (after it has EXHAUSTED all other options!!!!)' [a play on a Churchill's words]

Churchill left out the element of time. He should have added:

... as long as they are not too late.

"Too late" is being screamed at humanity by Mother Nature. I pray to God we will hear.

I try to be a Prayer to God
that we will hear,
in time.

What I'm called to lead us to, Universal Love as The way of life, is such a stretch, although I am exerting that force, it will take beyond my lifetime for the impact to materialize.  I am a hand pulling back on a slingshot.  It is not until the hand is gone that the propulsion forward occurs.

****Tribute to a Humanitarian

On 2-19-09, in her remarkable on-line diary, Mia Farrow posted this anonymous "Tribute to a Humanitarian" from a woman in Somalia:
If you see a world torn by famine and war and feel in some way responsible, you know the meaning of love.
If you see people with little or no hope and believe their survival is somehow linked to your own, you know the meaning of brotherhood.
If you feel those of us who have been blessed with abundance should share with those less fortunate, you know the meaning of charity.
If you can travel to the end of the world to bring hope to those who would otherwise never know it, you know the meaning of courage.
And if you can see a smile in the faces of those who should have no reason to smile, you know that there is still time."

WHEN IS "NORMAL" ACTUALLY...."SICK," "PATHOLOGICAL?" Hmmmmm. TODAY.

When there is a Collapsed Elementary School full of Kids / Revolution / War / Holocaust / Meteor Attack /. Rape / Mass Murder / Mass Starvation... going on around you. Then, "being," or "living - "Normal," "Balanced," "Peaceful," "Disarming," "Fun..." - are Truly: SICK, MAL-ADAPTIVE, MURDEROUS, PATHOLOGICAL, INSANE.....
WHEN IS "NORMAL" ACTUALLY...."SICK," "PATHOLOGICAL...?" Hmmmmm. That would be, hmmm, TODAY. RIGHT NOW.

WOULD YOU RECOGNIZE JESUS / KING / GANDHI TODAY? WOULD YOU KEEP THEM ALIVE? WOULD YOU MAKE THEM SUCCEED???

WOULD YOU RECOGNIZE JESUS / KING / GANDHI TODAY? 
WOULD YOU KEEP THEM ALIVE? 
WOULD YOU MAKE THEM SUCCEED???

Fw: My greatest personal fear: "CHURCH." CHURCH HAS BEEN THE ULTIMATE THREAT TO MY LIFE; IT REMAINS MY / OUR PERSONAL "TERRORIST" NETWORK

<<< THE CHURCH.  There have been many threats to my Life, but periodically, entirely unbidden it comes to me that "Church" has been the most terrifying, most potent threat to and barrier in my arrival at Life; my RETURN to Life, my RECOVERY of Life.The "Church" IS "Smith" in the matrix.  They seem these nice folks, but their sole purpose is to "find" those with inclinations that "things are not quite right with the status quo," and to find them and pull them back into the matrix, using whatever hypocrisy, deception, lies and deceit it takes.  I thank God I finally, after many decades of struggle, and only through the Grace of God escaped.  UTTERLY TERRIFYING TO ME.  The ultimate nurse Ratchet / Cuckoo's nest.  And they continue to murder my most promising "family" and I can't defeat them, yet.

Similarly, 71% told CNN/Opinion Research Corp. they thought Obama was moving the country in the right direction before he spoke. By the time he finished talking, that number had risen to 88%.

[I was horribly appalled as a spoiled, stupid, western, "ruling class" youth at the self-immolation of the Buddhist monks to end the Vietnam War.  I thought they were just plain wrong.  Dr. MLK on the other hand, was finally awakened by them to his full Humanity, and the speech at Riverside Baptist that got him murdered exactly a year later to the day, DEMANDING an end to the Vietnam Genocide was inspired by those same expressions of ultimate human outcry to Humanity.      "THERE COMES A TIME, when silence is betrayal," MLK.  SL]

Three people set themselves on fire in the heart of downtown Beijing on Wednesday, state media and a witness said, and city police said they appeared to have come to the capital to voice "personal complaints".  The trio set off the blaze in their car just before 3 p.m. (0700 GMT) at the intersection of the city's main Chang'an thoroughfare and high-end shopping street, Wangfujing.  [I don't know if today's article was one of those Times.

*****Harvard professor named to Pentagon post Weapons-buyer appointee has criticized stockpile

http://www.boston.com/news/education/higher/articles/2009/02/24/harvard_professor_named_to_pentagon_post/
BOSTON GLOBE: President Obama nominated yesterday Harvard professor Ashton B. Carter, a leading authority on arms control and a longtime academic, to serve as the Pentagon's chief weapons buyer.The choice of Carter to run the office that oversees hundreds of billions of dollars for new weapons and research - and is the focus of intense lobbying by defense firms, retired generals, and members of Congress - sparked concern within the defense industry and parts of the Pentagon bureaucracy when it was first rumored last month.But that may be exactly what Obama and Secretary of Defense Robert M. Gates wanted.
