Posted by M.T. Al-Mansouri, Ph.D. on November 7, 2012 at 11:10pm

The Yemeni President swears at the race of Indians, Indonesians and Somalis

His Excellency President Barack Hussein Obama: Abu Samra

After greeting and appreciation

This is my message to you in order to carry responsibility of the liberation of slaves in North Yemen from persecution, discrimination, racism, ignorance, poverty and disease. For many centuries they suffer harsh conditions, because the religious and secular revolutions of emancipation and liberation the of slaves did not extend to them due to the unjust ruling elites of governors, whom their traditions and beliefs do not have any thing associated with the true God .

His majesty, as you know the son of Abdu Al-Mutalib, Omar Al-Faruq was and will be a protagonist not only for the slaves but also for disinheriting, the paupers, the needy and the wayfarer.

The latest events for the son of Abdu Al-Mutalib was God’s message for the wise , strong and capable rulers to express their deep anger regarding slavery, including intransigent freemen of North Yemen and what practice against them genocide and persecution of tyrants era torturers.

The son of Abdu Al-Mutalib carried the torch of light and faith. The grandson of Abdu Al-Mutalib said that the race, espousing the son of Abdu Al-Mutalib. The support of superpowers as well as the support of other countries of the world is needed and should start immediately in order to help him to realize his mission.
I would like to tell Your Excellency to take action within government and non-government agencies as a matter of urgency in order to rush very quickly and rescue human beings.

Furthermore, evacuations of the victims of every kind of conflicts must be made to neutral state interests in civilizations, laws and non-intemperance, religious, or national nation. In addition, taking strict procedures on Yemeni’s unjust governors and the freezing of their assets, including fixed and mobile in Western and International banks.

Finally, I wish you and all Americans all the best of 2010.

You are my friend and I will not disagree.
In my childhood I was playing with your shadow and your colours.
I was reciting the Qura'n, singing songs and repeating the letters Q and A.
We were breaking the bread and eating it with anchovies.
I have soaked in their absences not only in hot allspice water, but also in Sudanese Roselle.
I drank and ate the rest in the days of a nasty enemy conspiracy.
Death with dignity, whether on a bed or a chair of death or by the sword.
Dr. Mohamed Tawfik Al- Mansouri, President expected .
If I do not become President, I promise you, I will never deviate from my goal.
I have already informed them with bad torment in pre-afterlife and the before the grave, as well as I promised them the establishment of the Kingdom of Rooster and Hoopoe with dignity, peace, asceticism and righteousness, and they will sing epic of Adam and Eve in its bright letters and “No” to the letters A, N and the end of the letter A("No" to Violence).

Here's a few twigs of the poetree, c'est moi, pour vous

Posted by reality on September 4, 2009 at 11:02am

Good Poetree month to all, Write on. For all you do and don't, here's a few twigs of the poetree, c'est moi, pour vous :)a longest dayOn World Refugee Day we heard, saw, read, said, studies, events, reports testifying to the facts that since '03 the # is up 21 %, mostly in Afghanistan (was the # 3 largest narco-state before the war, under usa supervision it's become # 1), Iraq, countries we've war torn to shreds, Somalia, which we occasionally bomb, attack, and Sudan; millions premeditatedly mass-murdered by the corporate structure's determining all global to national systems are based on scarcity, instead of abundance. This while, sadly, 5-07, was the deadliest month for usa troops, yet. A dozen Iraqis die from the war an hour. "We're loosing a battalion a month", reports a top General. Out of every 5 killed by coalition forces, 1 is a civilian; when they figure this war, if it ends in 2 years, will cost us 2 trillion, they're not figuring in war reparations, a minimum for the genocide we've caused. Meanwhile, the autocrats who rule almost all Middle Eastern countries, many of whom bought the usa military as their personal mercenary force to mass-murder their middle to lower class people into submission in the future, from the Bushes, are getting skittish because it seems the republican conspiracy can't engineer the Iraq war into an unending one successfully, let alone the global unending supposed Christian crusading war they hoped for. Although, Bush did say, "the war in Iraq may last over 50 years, like in Korea", the other day. You must already know what they're pre-imperial election continual refrains will be, "we're turning the corner", "victory is at hand", "don't be a defeatocrat", "the end's 'round the bend", "we're winning", "6 months more to success", "victory is around the corner", "just 1 more surge", etc.; being that you've heard it all before, for the last 4 years. They think they legitimize the remocrat conspiracy, as they have the corporate structure's convolution, while that organized conglomeration of enumerable crime families and conspiracies, not only devolves all, it determines extermination of humanity and dictates the extinction of large mammals and human beings, but, they can't; they just confess to being fascist collaborators, without whom fascists couldn't do all they do, and don't all they don't. As well, if they think the false legitimization of unending, unnecessary war in Iraq, will legitimize, and be successfully engineered into, unnecessary global uber unending supposed Christian crusading war, just because the Bushes contracted that it would with the Middle Eastern countries autocrats, you've got another thing coming; namely, presidential and congressional elections. They say cliche, take back the night, when we never had the day; each one teach one, when we had to be real to reach one, first; closing the economic gap, when that chasm is demanded by scarcity being the basis for systems, undoing nature's abundance, et al. Why, 'cause the knew catch word is real, so they sound it, mimic it, pretend to be, when all they're doing is fashioning the next phase in what they project to be their realism show, schism in reality. While most supposed Christians are more like Satan worshippers than Christians, in their religious practices, actually, so too, all supposed are anti: scientists, artists, politicians (without dempublicans collaboration remocrats wouldn't rule; without socialists collaboration totalitarians wouldn't rule the left; independents, more republican conspiratorial than most in their pushing bipartisanship like a drug), academes, and most other religious practitioners. Why are republican conspiracies' pitbulls, like Coulter, who just suggested "Edwards should be attacked by terrorists", turning rabid, chanting their mantra, "white water", like it's the best rapids and they're extreme sports fanatics, while the only white foam we're seeing is from their mouths, 'cause, here and now, they see a 'tunity, with this impending imperial election, to destroy any remnant of democracy in the united suck of assassins. The duopoly devolving into the duopolar axi of republican and totalitarian conspiracies, continually; whose powers increasingly dictate the extinction of human beings, large mammals, through the extermination of humanity. This day, at sun's height, still, Happy Rhodes lyric, "There's a beacon in the sky meant to catch your eye", a point to uplift our visions, and solar energy, aren't. So, nihlistic narcissism, vampirism, cannibalism as sociological process; machinelike rote, sociological programmed memory, regurgitation as education; non-spiritual conformity to process, empty rites as religious study, life; organized conspiratorial crime as business, medicine, healthcare, science, art, which has determined people devolve into extremist automatons, addicted to much, yet, at least, to consumerism, loyal parts in "la machine", conspirators on a scale between corporate agent to assassin for the empire, almost all corporate agents, and, increasingly, supposed Christian assassins; unsustainable earth murder (the largest tool for supposedly garnering increasing delusional profits and pleasures in, increasingly, cyclical, centralizing patterns); extinction of species at a rate not seen since the last ice age ensued (including bees, butterflies, without which nothing is pollinated, nor grows); unending, they hope, unnecessary war (the second largest tool...) in Iraq, which will lead to, they hope, unnecessary global uber unending supposed Christian crusading war (a necessitated precursor to the militarization of the world to enforce the extinction processes and murder all people who, finally, stand against the extermination of humanity by destruction of ecosystems permanently altering weather cycles, which exponentially increases the number and severity of all supposedly natural disasters, and war) and the end of all democratic processes, everywhere. Delusional profits and pleasures, for, the destroying of eco-systems stops their creation of our food, water, oxygen, which will cost humanity astronomically more to produce, in the future, than the limited short term profits their destruction seems to garner, now. Still, "we, the people..." suffer the GOP's criminal insanity, thousands dying from unnatural disasters, our forests going up in smoke, a battalion being lost a month; trillions to unnecessary war, no more for the poor, elderly, kids, college students, handicapped, homeless, homeowners, disabled, ill, small and organic farmers, small business owners, etc.; no amnesty for 12 million of our best (before borders bolstered), no national conversations on racial and religious profiling, national healthcare, teaching as opposed to preaching vacuous lies, global warming, the evolution, life; as their direction is devolutionary and death. Meanwhile, supposedly, Jesus, in most hearts, everyone's friend, walks again. What would he say about the millions murdered in his name, his preacher in chief, Bush, purposely not preventing the attacks on 9-11, this supposed Christian gov't purposely: not preventing unnatural disasters like New Orleans levees, which broke under the pressure of no repairs; reporting studies showing "acts of terrorism down", before the '04 elections, and after the election, they "made an oopsy, it's actually up"; reporting studies showing "poverty is down", before the '06 elections, and after it, "it's up, they were off by 40 %"; foreclosures, homelessness, poverty up, to highest level since before the '29 crash? About the corporate structure's war against the middle class to poor, the riches' ravaging of humanity and earth, while unabashedly giving themselves an "unending tax breaks" during "unending war"? Many crusades, and 100,000's of Islamic men, women and children savaged, later, the supposed Christian, crusaders assassinating with their crosses, knew nothing of Isa until he, the most merciful, Muhammed, forgave them the unforgivable, and they fled the Holy land, to crusade no more; 'til now. Not as then, the crosses they bore to behead children, bear them now, they pray and say they're martyred as they did then, grace bandied about like crusaders give out candy, knowing nothing of Isa, or him. They will leave or die 'til they do, today, as it was a millennium ago, Islam is gathering, as well. For, the intellect can't lead, as the life doesn't follow, so too, clarity is a sword that cuts all ways, without, as there is no cutting, and a pointless point. The Sword of Islam, always, and in all ways, knows. Will "we,..." go the way of the dodo bird, just another species we devolved to extinction, unlike ants and roaches, being evolutionarily superior to us, as they can't choose to be extinct like we did; or, will we rise to take back the day?normalI don't suffer, or, suffer from,Eurocentrism, northern malaise,Nor, academia; a blood disease.C'est La UnvieA million monarchs lie dead, though,No less sociological programming ofUpper-middle to rich classes withDecadence, affluence, inclusion, is.No less societal determination ofMiddle to lower, being excluded byDivision and conquering, privation.Yet, they, on wing no more, still flyIn our spirit's eye, heal humanities'Heart. While their silent cry echoesThe 33,000 species extinct each year,A rate not seen since the last ice ageEnsued; does it move you?Does your curiosity ask why?Will you, on this 33rd Earth Day, allowA tear for all life's fallen? ConsiderThe losses economic apartheid incurs,Mirrored by the divide human-centricityHas levied? Our underlying duplicitousDisregard for life, greed and oil fueled,Won't abate for our existence, will you?( For the beautiful butterflies )WingedWalking through this valley grayed,Whence mountains have been laidLow, I follow not, nor lead,Being unleveled, unknown.Though, still I'm one, and theFootprints I do not leave,Trace none. Yet,For every eagle feather glided thisWay, I stand. It may be ourSister's and brother's last hand,That's if they be the family ofMan, and men be man.It's said, one who will raise theDead will come, and, as well, leadAll on. I raised but a few sightsFurther, so I doubt that one willWalk this way. Though, the LifeIs indivisible, there's only you,Here and now!ToneLife's signs and meaningsPerceived by all our senses andBeing's foci of attention, canDivine from within and without.That's if our inner-eyeIsn't clouded by false-ego,Self-conscious self, or doubt.InjusticesAddressing, not addressing themhave costs, the former is individual,the latter is global, as well.ends or meansNeither do I embrace.Rather, the struggle well run,Which uplifts us uncrowned,Every moment humans race!ResponsibilityIf you don't exercise it,Its Siamese twin sister, freedom,Will wither, like a muscle, as well.A Weaver Of LifeHappy BirthdayTo a student of Christ's and Ghandi's.One who had a dream that somedayWe'd live in the promised land andTook us by the hand.Yet, we won't get thereIf you don't break your chains,Refusing to be a pawn in their games.We can't turn our back to thoseUnchosen, on the outside or in,Simply 'cause they can't afford.We can bring them with us, if we,Resisting, everyday, their commonDelusions, not be a link in that chain.The chains that keep our humanitiesGrowth arrested, our potentialsUnexplored; our thoughts,Feelings, and deeds flawed.If you don't refuseTo be the chains that bind you,We'll never break the chain.The chain that murders.The chain of delusions.The chain of death.YOU CANTalk the talk, walk the walk, and evenBe the be, but, if you don't vote the vote,You'll never be livin' in a democracy!"Love Is Not All"They ask what they know. For, if I'm, but,the shadow of a man, then, my life proceedsme, no? As their psychic abominationbreathes my life, again they refrain, "she rideson your back", I Beren be, on paths untold,On Elbereth, of old. They mock, and harkingboast, as they've already drunk many a toastto what is man's, woman's death, entombed,in-crested by their seal, their ghastly host.False-ego, the answer to their opening joke,their precious just a parlance for,what you grasp possesses you. "Though,if there's no possession, how could this betrue?" The body, phenomena too, ofelements and to elements goes. Like attractslike, the earth beckons, as well, to her womb.Yet, as Longfellow's "Psalm of Life", retorts,"dust thou art, to dust returnest, wasn'tspoken of the soul." Nor, of spirit, the whole.Grimace, they fear undermining life's fabric,the evolution, will be more arduous thanundoing a thread. I liken their mask to EricFromm's admonition, "people tend to escapefrom freedom to familiar forms of authority."What of the fullest reach of life, beingourselves to be? There, they fade, "FromWhence..., To Wither", they go, shadow.For, now Socrates entreats them with, "theunexamined life's not worth living". Defyingthe tacit assumptions of their convolution,like, winner, loser, predator, prey, sides,the most fit instead of those that fit mostto reality. Why, you ask, do they substituteslogans for being? 'Cause, "the introspectivelife takes more courage than soldiering." Stillossifying, the corporate machine continues toshape the world in its own adolescent,patriarchal, oligarchic image, as it has God.Here, hear, off in the distance, hearts tattoo,Cornel West's "Socratic, prophetic, broughttogether blues." For, it's old news that "we'vehardly any rights, and liberties left. Justsounding brass, tinkling cymbals." Reigningon humanities' parade. You see, we've notexercised our responsibility, so, its Siamesesister, freedom, has withered as well. AsEmily Dickinson's poem's refrain refrains,"Not In Vain", now, will we be this day,what it is to be this day?GleanWaves spraying our faces, for, we don't walk the walk.The beaches edge, which ever changes, is where we,Sky, earth, moon and sea meet.Breezing through the strong breeze, theFuller our lungs the lighter we'd run,It was to be, with ease.As reality, she and I stalked ourselvesIn those shells silences, like whenWe leaped from a slip on a rock to the next, well.Then sitting still, we glistened, the sun splashingThrough us, as the ocean's and our salt were one.Her thoughts and mine flowed,Our feelings were its ebb and flow.Nature, true, would not be unsung.That blue gray cloudy day found us in the end.Finding it by moons ray, our ears to waves did lend.It was as our footprints,Truly there, 'til waves did gently lift.For, if it were that we held it,Like sand grasped, it wouldn't be a gift.A Flute Echoes UsA light within that has always been withoutAs well, grows, while life's vultures ever circle,Below. Why has it always been that human beingsWho be more so, have had to be exiles inTheir own lands? This time, more than any otherBefore, beckons all life to be most vividly that.As long as I can, walking the road in the world,Which is the unwinding path within,Will enlighten; as it does.Listening to a song sung and un, without words andNature's sing me, I'm naught, but, it's echo andThe mountain which does not rise as that eagle'sTalon leaves a rock perched in its eyre, I,At the top. Singing, this voiceless rock that isn't,Resounds a universe's song, which leaving asA talon did, is felt sky bound, for, it ever plays on.Now, a galactic wind weaves me through thatStormless storm, on this unspeck of dust, to here.Being filled with this songs silences,I'm reminded of where our mundane life andThe unseen are one. Walking that balance we gleanThat living is the grist of our individual mills, andDiscover that inner unfolding is unending.As well, life is the grist of realities' mill.So, we've come to pass and learn, as well as teach,Through life on that wheel, what it is to be,From within and without.Ergo, ourselves are the question we always ask,And the answer we never find. For, whenYou put your finger on it, it's no longer there.The Rainbow's GiftBlood, forever pouringFor all life, notOne drop spilt, andTruth, never yellowing,Though, ever changing,Create orange, you see;On the palette of to be!MusingsIn between words and lines,Poetry's music fathomsThe depths of our heart,The heights of our intellectAnd imagination,Breadth of our spirit,Well of our soul,Alluding to the unknown;Saliently.

I say,"We", still beingThe life, will!LeafA raindrop formsIn love's eye.Joy, sadness, let go.IllumineFire in the skyAnd your art,Entering my eye,Going Sane, Or In?The F.B.I. knew, but, didn't tell. The military,No response until an hour after initial attack.No air force jets scrambled, to shoot theCommandeered ones down. Soon, the Central LackOf Intelligence Agency will dictate, it wasn't known.According to the Emperor, in his new threads, heWill be "victorious in this Christian Crusade againstAll terrorists and their supporters", to the 4 corners.This while the British empire couldn't take the I.R.A.,Even on their best day. Yes, he really meant,Non-Christian, non-whites, especially the ones who'veBeen pounded for hundreds of years by war with theBrits, Russians, et al; and eventually, all who disagree.For, we can't forget his edict to the world,"Either you're on our side, or you're terrorists".As if this weren't criminal enough, they're talkingAbout using nuclear weapons. So, we've W.W.IIIAgainst one of the poorest countries, already in rubble,Getting famine relief, who practice the fastest growingReligion, Islam, to kill them and cut OPEC's edge onUS oil; while making radioactive dust?Then, a chorus of supposed feminists chime in,"They've oppressed women and children for years.War is good, as long as women are in leadership after."Have we forgotten, destruction and murder areOf no value, they just reinforce the effects of cyclicalDeprivation? There are no "sides", that is a delusion?How could "we" be so lost, or let them lead us astray?rahimIs man deserted in the Middle East?Does it bleed him as we bleed the earth,The fouling of one sky always following?How could the sons of Isaac and Ishmael,So, not remember their way? ThinkingThey're choosing peacing and warring onEach other for delusional profits, pleasures,While sanguine sands mark their real lossOf life, humanities' loss of time.Wasn't it written, God is watching andWe are returning, as the home of heartIn a child beckons the man that becomes?Isn't it so, our souls call to us in silences?Yet, the military machine rolls. What is,Or could be, heard by any above this?A woman martyr, 18, imploded by the liesTaught to her from U.S. written, donatedTextbooks, explodes, taking hers andOthers lives from us. Same as the shiningSun seems to divine famine.Here, clouds relent, watering soil,Cleansing spiritually, some mind's eyes.While the media's constant chides of,"You're not the earth, reality isn't yourWomb, rather, a tomb divined",Though, only smoke and mirrors, divide.Yet, the life, indivisible, defies, a flowerBlossoms, Michaelangelo's... roll by,An avian's trill still rings true.So, what of me and you.Will we allow individual injustices to goUnchallenged, devolving into global ones?Our freedoms to wither, for, we didn'tExercise our responsibilities? DeathsDirge to purge our evolutionary calling?Manifest destinies rag to drag us throughTheir mud, determining the unactuationOf life, our and large mammals extinction?Or, will birdsong be sungOf what we've done?Let not the only tear to eye be theirDestined flood. Let our sojourns longingRedefine the sublime in morningsAwakening. Let life at humanities' hearthGrow, our being veracity and loving sow.Exigency Or Humanity?CIA, KGB, tell us, routine illegal acts of premeditatedMass-murder guarantee the people's liberty; a higherMorality. The life knows criminal insanity guards notHumanity, or anything else. Rather, it devolves it toNon-existence. For, morality isn't its contradiction.Being humane, alive, isn't an exercise in theoreticalPhilosophy, where tautologically, anything can "be".Because the inmates have been running the asylumFor too long, "we" can't afford to be mesmerized byTheir mechanistic play; they fabricate as life.No matter how much their smoke and mirrors,Song and dance, forcibly fill our populaces eyes,We can still teach destruction and murder are of noReal value; and the delusion of sides doesn't exist!Though, they insist, "those disagreeing are terrorists,If you're not premeditatedly mass-murdering them,You are them and should be murdered". What willCome of their exigency that society meet the needsOf their extreme religions: supposed science, greed,Militarism, organized religions, and materialism?What will be the price society paid in advance, for,Not effectively separating them all from the state?As Reich relates, supported by Adler, that descent onJacob's ladder is to fascism, individually, communallyImposed hell; easy to sell to the devolved.Is it any wonder, this perdition will be realized byThe make believe "Christian" crusade, following inThe Roman Catholic Empire's missteps? How couldWe separate it from the state, when we failed to do soWith supposed science, materialism, militarism, etc.?Where will the emperor in his new threads lead us?When he states, "terrorists must be smoked out,Made to run, and killed", he reminds me of Bacon,Who dictated that, "nature must be hounded intoWandering, bound into service, made a slave".As his forbearer, and a make believe Christian too,He equates humans to animals, denigrating himselfWith fascism; while dangerously projecting it to all.Yes, the Twin Towers, temples of doom, were felled.Yet, multiplying our past mistaken cycles of war, willOnly reap future destruction, not prevent it.For decades now, the Non-American, non-Christian,Non-white world has suffered the unnatural disasters,Caused by the technological worlds permanentlyAltering weather cycles. Their blood also oilingThe US war machine. Millions of tragic deathsTo advance "America's way of life", et al; also, a rateOf species extinction not seen since before the lastIce age ensued, and eco-systems destruction realizingOur future extinction, now. When it'll be, unknown.Those same imperatives of extremist greed, etc.,Dictate we use non-renewable energy sources,Determining humanities fall on the horizon. AllWhile our countries crisis of perception is projectedAs superfluous and supercilious, and the forcesDividing us from within are given carte blanche.How could we forget Blake's admonition, "you'veGot to keep from the single vision of Newton'sSleep", detailing our need to think independently.For, survival can't replace evolution's nexus, alival.Or, Thoreau's, that "the only necessity for evil toRule a land, is for good men to remain silent".How could the extremist unending war againstTerrorisms exigency be anything more than theEfficient and automatic societal transference fromNihilistic-narcissism to fascisms raison d'etre,To not be humane. Have we allowed the exigency ofThe Cartesian based definition of time to determine usTo be automatons? Why allow Isaac's and Ishmael'sPeacing and warring on each other to determine theNecessity of the extremism of war; and the muting ofShakespeare's "relations make music of the spheres"?Can't we, as Illich relates, "de-school society",Before avarice determines it's too late?Do we just fall behind in trying times, or allowPotentia space to realize growth by struggling,Relating, thinking, emoting, more, not less? WillHumanity evoke, or exigency revoke all rights,In reality? Though Liberty's torch is scorched,Bell cracked, knell snatched, will we rise toFraternity's call? As Blake relates, "if the doorsOf perception were cleansed, everything wouldAppear as it is, infinite", in all its possibilities.A Sign Of The TimeThe emperor says, you're either with WWIII, or again'Us, proving, "from the mouth of babes comes wisdom.";Just not theirs. Soothes say, here's where it all has toHappen, seems so; for, if not us, who, here, where,Now, when, or possibly never? Following la machine'sFearless lead, Tim Robbins chimes out, "Let us war onViolence". With enemies like these, the republican'sConvolution's direction of devolution doesn't needFriends, sure why not be a waron, instead of a moron;The resemblance, striking, literally. Yet, like PBS,It's the best we have, and unlike hbo, it's not b.o. AChorus, unchiming, that having's an illusion, drownedOut by their show, is still. 'Cause, isn't the delusionBuilt on it, possession, it 9/10 ths of the law, a corner-Stone of that most vacuum up economic tool of mollock,War? They hark, what about take away game theory.This, while the U.S. sucks up 80% of earth's riches,Being only 5% of its population, causing permanentlyAltered weather cycles, determining unnatural disastersThat kill millions, and will billions. C'est la unvie,They must die so the autocracy ever-concentrates at theTop, unnatural selection, user, used, predator, prey,They say. Yet, using is illusion, evolutionary agree-Ment, reality. Though, the suck: lack of investment inInnercities, unschools programming memory skills, thePrison industrial complexes defacto-slavery, the injust-Ice systems premeditated massmurdering death penalty,Make believe Christianities antilife unchoices, splittingOf atom, earth-murder causing extinction, could be theStart of an eventual blackhole; after they trash GaiaAnd flee the collapsing solar system, a losing race toEscape their ignoring, if responsibility isn't exor-Cised, its Siamese sister, freedom, will wither, as well.Now, the Oracle of Tevi illumines, Bishop DesmondTutu's "co-creation" is beautiful.

Question unnatural selection.Know, as Howard Zinn, "media, artists are determining people get in line around thePerimeter of gov't power, yet, it's their job to transcend that". Remember I.F. Stone'sTwo words, "gov'ts lie". Think out of the ass. As artists, how else can we address theElements of war, by the struggling with supposed paradoxes as actuating artistic process,Individuation, through creation of art. The artist transcends mundane and worldlySociety, by envisioning perspectives, subjects, mediums, styles, outside their framework,Allows a looking glass in which the world, individual, and reality are reflected.The devolutionary mantra, "you've got to be professional", is the most repetitive of theirCodes. That's all it takes for people to justify, self censor, limit, not question, allowing allOther, their piece of the rock too; everyone in for a penny, in for a pound, decay bound.Yet, it's necessary for artists to inspire paradigms in which others can struggle withSocieties mechanistic mold of professional; worn like a mask, whatever, is done behind it.Thereby, facilitating feeling, views, discernments and questioning of exigencies, et al.Keep in mind Mark Twain's, "patriotism is loyalty to country, not its institutions",Emma Goldman's, "... is love of country, not gov't", and Arthur Miller's, "... isIndifferently bestowing custody of their country to state depts.".

What else can we all do, not be a link in the chainOf murder, actuate potential, own responsibilities, including civic, and teach anyone.If you don't exercise responsibility, its siamese twinsister, freedom, will wither, as well.Berrigan wrote, "cause is the heart's beat, the children born, the risen bread".Peltier, "we're all related, all one".

Uncommon sense :) from pithe to folk wisdom

Posted by reality on September 2, 2009 at 7:44am

For, if, for no other reason, the beauteous writing, prosaic or poetic, of many of our most revered and cherished works are at once literary gems and wisdom, of mundane to mystical, is it not this truth they all have in common; and, therefore, all of humanity shares in common? Where to start, Rumi, Milarepa, Thomas Merton's translations, especially of Chuang-Tzu, the Sermon on the Mount, et al, are so inspiring and lyrical, that we could surely believe they weren't penned by mortal hand. Here's a few less commonly cited :)"If there was something in the airIf there was something in the windIf there was something in the trees or bushesThat could be pronounced and once was overheard by animals,Let this Sacred Knowledge be returned to us again.Artharvaveda (VII, 66) as quoted in Entering the Circle""Discipline is the art of feeling awe.Carlos Castenenda""Do not rush to answers, let the questions be questions until the answers are revealed.Martha Graham""To walk in seasons is to question,A flower is opening.Basho"And, if I may be so bold, one of mine:claritySword that cuts all ways,Without, for, there's no cutting;And a pointless point.jmn"Then a cloud passed, and the pool was empty....Go, go, go, said the bird, human kindCannot bear very much reality.And yet there is that other dimension altogetherin the very fact of consciousness itself:To be conscious is not to be in time.... Except for the point, the still point,There would be no dance, and there is only the dance.I can only say, there we have been: but I cannot say where,And I cannot say, how long, for that is to place it in time.I will say to my soul, Be still, and let the dark come upon you,Which shall be the darkness of God.The inner freedom from the practical desire,The release from action and suffering, release from the innerAnd outer compulsion, yet surroundedBy a grace of sense, a white light still and moving ...And what the dead had no speech for, when living,They can tell you, being dead: the communicationOf the dead is tongued with fire beyond the language of the living.T.S. Eliot's poetic opus, the cycle called "Four Quartets""The Native Mind tends to view wisdom and environmental ethics asdiscernible in the very structure and organization of the naturalworld rather than as the lofty product of human reason far removedfrom nature. The Native Mind tends to view the universe as thedynamic interplay of elusive and ever-changing natural forces, not asa vast array of static physical objects. It tends to see the entirenatural world as somehow alive and animated by a single, unifyinglife force, whatever its local Native name. It does not reduce theuniverse to progressively smaller conceptual bits and pieces. Ittends to view time as circular (or as a coil-like fusion of circleand line), as characterized by natural cycles that sustain all life,and as facing humankind with recurrent moral crises-rather than as anunwavering linear escalator of "human progress". It tends to acceptwithout undue anxiety the probability that nature will always possessunfathomable mysteries. It does not presume that the cosmos iscompletely decipherable to the rational human mind. It tends to viewhuman thought, feelings, and communication as inextricablyintertwined with events and processes in the universe rather than asapart from them. Indeed, words themselves are considered spirituallypotent, generative, and somehow engaged in thecontinuum of the cosmos, not neutral and disengaged from it. Thevocabulary of Native knowledge is inherently gentle and accommodatingtoward nature rather than aggressive and manipulative. The NativeMind tends to emphasize celebration of and participation in theorderly designs of nature instead of rationally "dissecting" theworld. It tends to honor as its most esteemed elders thoseindividuals who have experienced a profound andcompassionate reconciliation of outer- and inner-directed knowledge,rather than virtually anyone who has made material achievement orsimply survived to chronological old age. It tends to reveal aprofound sense of empathy and kinship with other forms of life,rather than a sense of separateness from them or superiority overthem. Each species is seen as richly endowed with its own singulararray of gifts and powers, rather than as somehowpathetically limited compared with human beings. Finally, it tends toview the proper human relationship with nature as a continuousdialogue (that is, a two-way,horizontal communication between Homo sapiens and other elements ofthe cosmos) rather than as a monologue (a one-way, verticalimperative).David Suzuki"“The basis of all relations, including with self, and all studies, including activism and advocacy, are also environmental, spiritual…” jmn"Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined persuading yourself a god inspires you. Believe nothing on the authority of your masters or priests. After examination believe that which you yourself have tested and found to bereasonable and conform your conduct thereto." ~ The Buddha"With sincerity and earnestness one can realize God through all religions. The Vaishnavas will realize God, and so will the Saktas, the Vedantists, and the Brahmos. The Mussalmans and Christians will realize Him to. All will certainly realize God if they are earnest and sincere." ~ Ramakrishna, `The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna'"In my humble opinion, non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as is cooperation with good.", “Be the change you wish to see in the world”. ~ Mahatma Gandhi"What is life? It is a flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset." ~ Crowfoot"The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds." ~ A KNOT, by R.D. Laing"Take care of everyone and abandon no one. Take care of everything and abandon nothing." ~ Lao Tzu~ E F Schumacher says." Wisdom demands a new orientation of science and technology towards the organic, the gentle, the non-violent, the elegant and beautiful"."What can be explained is not poetry." ~ WB YEATS"We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, effects all indirectly." ~ Martin Luther King, Jr."Not to hurt our humble brethren is our first duty to them, but to stop there is not enough. We have a higher mission, to be of service to them whenever they require it."~ St. Francis of Assisi, patron saint of animals."Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." ~ Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)"If you rejoice in victory, then you delight in killing. If you delight in killing, you cannot fulfill yourself." ~ Lao Tzu"Peace is the only battle worth waging." ~ Albert Camus"There is no flag large enough to cover the shame of killing innocent people."~ Howard Zinn"How smooth must be the language of the whites, when they can make right look like wrong, and wrong like right."~ From Black Hawk (Makataimeshekiakiak) (1767-1838) Sauk war chief"What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say."~ Ralph Waldo Emerson"If you want to know your past life, look into your present condition; ifyou want to know your future, look into your present action." ~ Padmisambha"Yesterday is a dream, tomorrow but a vision. But today well lived makesevery yesterday a dream of happiness, and every tomorrow a vision of hope.Look well, therefore to this day." ~ Sanskrit Proverb"Don't ask the Lord to guide your footsteps unless you are willing to moveyour feet." ~ Christian proverb\\"It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop."~ Confucius"People usually fail when they are on the verge of success. So give as much care to the end as to the beginning." ~ Lao Tzu"It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare, it is because we do not dare that things are difficult." ~ Seneca"For the sake of the rose the thorn is watered too." ~ Africa"As a great fish swims between the banks of a river as it likes, so does the shining Self move between the states of dreaming and waking." ~ Brihadaranyaka Upanishad"When spiders unite, they can tie down a lion."~ Ethiopian Proverb, Courtesy of Strider, via Inez Matus"To find yourself, think for yourself." ~ Socrates"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." ~ Aristotle"Skill to do comes of doing." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson"Water always finds a way out." ~ Cameroon"Leap, and the net will appear." ~ Julie Cameron~ Lao-Tzu, "A journey of a 1000 miles begins with the first step.""Know thyself." ~ Socrates"Few men have enough virtue to withstand the highest bidder." ~ George Washington"You can't dismantle the man's house with the man's tools." ~ Audre Lourde"If a thousand [people] were not to pay their tax bills this year, that would not be a violent and bloody measure, as it would be to pay them and enable the state to commit violence and shed innocent blood." ~ Henry David Thoreau~ Jean Baptiste Dubos (1670-1742) :) "The principal aim of painting is to touch us. A work that touches us deeply must be excellent on the whole. For the same reason, the work that touches us not at all and that does not engage us is worthless; and if a critical examination finds nothing that breaks the rules to reprove, the reason is that a workcan be bad without breaking the rules as work that breaks the rules in many ways can be excellent.""If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything; If you don't ‘turn on’ politics, politics will turn on you." ~ Ralph Nader"To walk in seasons is to question. A flower is opening. ~ Basho""Abhaya, fearlessness, is most important for an individual and a country."~ Mahatma Gandhi"Painting is poetry which is seen and not heard, and poetry is a painting which is heard but not seen." ~ Leonardo da Vinci"It's better to light one candle than to curse the darkness" ~ Emily Dickinson"Nature is an instructive and impartial teacher, spreading no crude opinions, and flattering none; she will be neither radical nor conservative." ~ Henry David Thoreau"What lies before us and what lies behind us are small matters compared to what lies within us." ~ Emerson"All it takes for evil to rule a land is for good men to remain silent." ~ Daniel Webster"The seeing is not reflecting on an object as if the seer had nothing to do with it. The seeing, on the contrary, brings the seer and the object seen together, not in mere identification but the becoming conscious of itself, or rather its working. The seeing is an active deed, involving the dynamic concept of self-being; that is of the Mind." ~ Suzuki~ Thomas Merton's Journals :)"..the creative power of our liberty is perhaps.. A non-destructiveness. If we can accept creation we concur in creating because we have the 'power' to destroy. Our power to create is a power to consent in creation....Our power to destroy seems more ours (and it is so) and more of a power. What is happening now is that we concentrate more and more on the power that is a rejection. Yet paradoxically, to have the power to destroy and not destroy is to 'make'.........The problem is for people to see that the power to nurture and preserve......is the only true power, and does not appear as power. Whereas what appears as power, the power to destroy, is not power but self-defeat. Strangely, this power is regarded as the one great reality in our world....""The price of Freedom is Eternal Vigilance.""Those who surrender Liberty, to get temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." ~ Benjamin Franklin"O Beloved of hearts, I beseech only You. Have pity this day on those who turn to You. My Hope, my Rest, my Delight, this heart can love none other but You."~ Rabi'a, "Rabi'a the Mystic""Our peace of mind increases in spite of suffering; we become braver and more enterprising; we understand more clearly the difference between what is everlasting and what is not; we learn how to distinguish between what is our duty and what is not. Our pride melts away and we become humble. Our worldly attachments diminish and, likewise, the evil within us diminishes from day to day." ~ Mahatma Gandhi"In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." ~ Martin Luther King, Jr."You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face." ~ Eleanor Roosevelt"When we are ignorant we live in His prison; when we become prudent we live in His palace; when we fall asleep we become intoxicated; when we are awakened we are in His hands." ~ Rumi, "Mathnawi""The fairest graciousness, they say, is a kindly look. Wherever it thrives, the whole world flourishes." ~ Tirukkural 58:571"Let a smile be your ambassador." ~ anon."Compassion is the willingness to play in the field of dreams even though you are awake." ~ Matthew Flickstein, "Swallowing the River Ganges""If we divide into two camps--even into violent and the nonviolent--and stand in one camp while attacking the other, the world will never have peace. We will always blame and condemn those we feel are responsible for wars and social injustice, without recognizing the degree of violence within ourselves. We must work on ourselves and also withthose we condemn if we want to have a real impact."~ Ayya Khema, "Be An Island""We never know the worth of water till the well is dry." ~ France"Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards"~ Danish philosopher, Soren Kierkegaard"Compassion is the chief law of human existence." ~ Fyodor Dostoyevsky"As for those who seek the transcendental Reality, without name, without form, contemplating the Unmanifested, beyond the reach of thought and of feeling, with their senses subdued and mind serene and striving for the good of all beings, they too will verily come unto me." ~ Bhagavad Gita, 12:3-4"It is the theory that decides what we can observe." ~ Albert Einstein"We who lived in concentration camps can remember the people who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a person but one thing: the last of the human freedoms -- to choose one's attitude in any given set ofcircumstances, to choose one's own way." ~ Viktor Frankl (1905-1997)"When we have chosen the vocation in which burdens cannot overwhelm, then we experience no meagre limited egotistic joy, but our deeds go on forever and when we die the tears of noble men will fall on our ashes." ~ Karl Marx"The Master said, "A man who is not humane, what can he have to dowith ritual?"" ~ Confucianism, Analects 3.3."There was undoubtedly much in primitive Christianity to appeal to the Indians, and Jesus' hard sayings to the rich, and about the rich were entirely comprehensible to us. Yet, the religion that we heard preached in churches and saw practiced by congregations, with its element of display and self-aggrandizement, its active proselytism, and its open contempt of all religions but its own, was for a long time extremely repellent."~ Ohiyesa, Charles Alexander Eastman, `The Soul Of An Indian'.“All people, as all life, are threads in the whole of the fabric of life, which will always need mending; yet, "we" can't allow it to be torn asunder". ~ james m nordlundThurgood Marshall ~ "By recognizing the humanity in our fellow human being, we pay ourself the highest tribute"."Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength; loving someone deeply gives you courage." ~ Lao-Tzu"Never borrow for what you don't need. Never think you need what you have to borrow for. ~ Irish Proverb""We're not human beings having a spiritual experience, we're spiritual beings having a human experience." - Wayne Dyer (supposedly)Well, thanx, for a great read. "Painting is poetry which is seen and not heard, and poetry is a painting which is heard but not seen." ~ Leonardo da Vinci. Enjoy a festive eve' as you can. Lest "we" forget, if you don't exercise responsibility, its Siamese twin sister, freedom, will wither, like a muscle, as well. Sadly, now, it first needs to be exorcized before its exercised.
