***** vlog 04.08.13 My Strategy to End Ecocide. Ecocides DeathFast, Day 11, Canadian Embassy
THIS vid link - vid AVERTING ECOCIDE - NASA'S DR. JAMES HANSEN - , sadly [it's criminal, really], is the ONLY PLACE that you can get to the BOTTOM LINE of the Science, Technology, Economics. The sci, tech, econ... there is NOT original, but that it's brought to a bottom line distillation IS. Isn't the future of every young person you know, and any that ever will be born worth 20, boring, hard, difficult, intense minutes? It IS worth my Life for you to do so.
Also, the three strategically crucial vlogs of this Death Fast, begun Good Friday prior to this of today, are below.

nd Ecocide's Death Fast Day 11 - A confession: I had a cup of chicken broth last night, my 2st zero calorie fast violation (the first being the 180 cal Gatorade I accepted). A bistro offered it to me at closing (I asked), would have been thrown out. I figure, I haven't many days left, and well, a last supper sort of thing. I'm not real settled with doing this, but, well, in the scheme of things, I don't think it will hurt. Before Terminating all liquids I may do this one or two more times.

***** 2 New additions to one of my greatest contributions to you, two new additions: #000, #117. It is said, give me the right place to stand and I can move the world. The right place to Stand... (detail)
| 000. It is said, give me the right place to stand and I can move the world. The right place to Stand is in the Depths of my Soul, in Solidarity with the Global Neediest, Serving. And from there I can possibly move the Soul of Humanity, and thereby the world - Gandhi's Soul Force. |
| 117. I defeat temptation by bringing to mind in that moment, the existential choice: 1. Do I want to spend the next moments embracing what's been called God (Loving, Serving from the Soul in Solidarity), or 2. Do I prefer what intoxications the temptation before me holds? |
Within recent months I read, or re-read Sorokin's "The Ways and Power of Love." It is on my top ten must reads for everyone, to save humanity, avert ecocide.
I'd missed, not read, or not grasped his arduous, difficult, utterly invaluable exposition on the techniques used by what, in his estimable view, are the religious institutions that, at specific times in history, have achieved a heroic level of altruizing on the members - most notable among these are the monasteries, employed by virtually all religions.
They were, and maybe some still are, 'boot camps,' 'medical schools,' 'Navy Seal training bases'... for Heroic Altruism, Heroic Loving, Heroic Humanity - INSHE Warriors.
Well, if we are going to avert ecocide, we need to produce the level of INSHE (Insanely Humane) Warriors that they did, but in months, not years. To that end I've written "Unleashing Your Unviolent Warrior - Personal Trainer." Having devoted a lifetime to learn, embody, and practice the characteristics of the greatest INSHE Warriors throughout history, I've distilled in this book the now, 117 characteristics that literally every day, I try to fully instill, or keep instilled, in myself.
I pray that in the days I have left I can update the book for the 9 or so characteristics that my own unviolent warring for humanity have told me were missing from the current addition. The new first item now is 000, and the last 117, above.

B. ...Hasn't the most microscopic clue as to how impossible it is to do the one thing, the only thing, the one thing lacking - get we near-heart-dead, near-Soulless US Affloholics off our asses and into the streets, UNVIOLENTLY, SELF-SACRIFICIALLY, PAYING THE PRICE OF CHANGE WITH OUR OWN LIVES, WEALTH, HEALTH... NOT OTHERS. IT'S NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE. HELL, MY PARENTS GENERATION NEVER DID STAND IN THE WAY OF THEIR CHILDREN BEING FED INTO THE HUMAN MEAT GRINDER THAT WAS VIETNAM. THEY NEVER DID! THEIR OWN CHILDREN, IN FRONT OF THEIR EYES, OBVIOUS, THEIR KIDS COMING HOME IN BODY BAGS, AND THEY DIDN'T RAISE A FINGER - COULDN'T SEE IT! And with Global Warming? 1 MILLION TIMES MORE ABSTRACT, REMOTE. If you think I'm doing it the wrong way, you have zero idea of how unknown what the right way is, to stop this in 2013!

Day 11 Ecocide's Death Fast - Vow of silence update (detail)
My intent to operate under a vow of silence has been observed, and has been very powerful, an excellent choice.
We are decades past needing to Stop Talking, and Start Loving - start BEING the solution to the next 200 billion children. We talk to AVOID doing so - Acting, STANDING PUTTING OUR BODIES UNVIOLENTLY IN THE WAY TILL OUR NEXT 200 BILLION KIDS ARE SAFE. We TALK INSTEAD OF ACT.
As I've stated - EVERYTHING I DO IS IN THE SERVICE OF HUMANITY (OUR NEXT 200 BILLION KIDS BEING THE NEEDIEST, OBJECTIVELY), IN SERVICE OF SPREADING AN OUTBREAK OF LOVING, AGAPE, THE ONLY POSSIBLE (NEUROLOGICALLY) REVOLUTION, HOPE, SOLUTION, SALVATION. Serving Humanity, Spreading a mass outbreak of Loving, in time - being the only Sacred items for me. EVERYTHING ELSE IN MY BEING IS SUBORDINATE, A TOOL, to achieve these goals, and ALWAYS will be sacrificed. Everything else is Strategy and Tactic.
And so too operating under a Vow of Silence (vs 'taking a vow,' which I'd NEVER do - IRRESPONSIBLE - see vlogs):
* My intent has been to operate in silence with all that would come by to, understandably, 'Talk' about ecocide, ending Global Warming - NOW. They need to THINK, and ACT, NOT TALK. I'll NOT ENABLE. When such as these stop, I hand out the handout - see earlier post. Talk would NOT hit their heart, but I see that this sometimes does! There's been but one exception - a fellow in whom I used to have enormous hope for the world stopped by yesterday and I spoke with him, not at length, as he wanted, understandably, but for about 10 minutes. I Love him, too much to have gone longer.
* As I've spoken of in a prior vlogthe one major exception to the silence has been several hours, last
Sunday, that I spent with the 2 folks, the two, beside my dad, that have been Universal Family to me, no slight of disrespect to any others, who took one of only about 3, literally, days off they take in a year (they work 7 days per week) to drive 3 hours to see me. I serve, respect, Adore and Nurture Humanity.
* And, in Service of Humanity, there have been probably 3 or 4 small breaks per day:

- Len, is the most wonderful street guy. I Love him, and worry so much about him. I asked him this morning what I could buy him at CVS when I go - 'a sandwhich and a coke. THANKS!'
- When I see rain coming, internet, I'll tell Hawk, Tony, Delbert, Len... if I see them.
- Carolyn walks about 25 blocks Sat, and sometimes Sun, to get food from the Lucas 4:18 folks, and others, that kindly serve us here, and Bruce, a musician, drops 2 huge food bags off for me to distribute - I told her what time to pick it up from me.
- A foreigner asked me yesterday - 'How do I get to the White House?' And the point of me being Silent would be what? Would have Served who?
