What to do, What to do?






 

What to do, What to do?


 
In response to recent posts I’ve received comments that ask – In the face of such massive, global-wide dysfunction, and given the almost incomprehensible complexity of making fundamental changes to world-wide systems, What Can We Do?

Here is what we can do -

First stand up. Speak out. Look, study, commit. Talk about it, think about it. Ask about it. Help us find like minded folks who will begin to come together to discuss how to:

1. Define the connection between denial of mortality and grief and the culture of "More"

2. Design an alternative to Capitalism

3. Define political process (Government) in a Quicksilver Times Evolutionary/Revolutionary environment

4. Find and create group affiliations.

5. Reach out to, and connect with world workers

6. Define specifics of population control

7. Design political action that is in keeping with concepts and values of QST

8. Define and create an environment of sexual freedom that will allow each individual to fully experience her/his sexuality.

9. Encourage spiritual perspective based on re-defined spiritual values identified on Quicksilver Times and in White Man Dancing – Grief, God, and a Unified Theory.

Each of these topics is essential – and more may need to be defined as the path unfolds – to making the fundamental changes that must be made to heal the systemic, planet wide dysfunction and move towards balance.

In addition to communicating via Internet we need to design meetings, workshops, and retreats where we begin to meet with folks in person. The power of the Internet has been co-opted by the massive amount of drivel out there at any given moment.

We can gather momentum, we can define and share, but, finally, we have to stand in each other’s presence and be seen by the community at large. Just as this Evolution/Revolution will grow one heart at a time, it will be recognized and valued when it manifests out here in the real world one group, one meeting, one physical manifestation at a time.

Right now we are involved in defining and organizing. Does it feel overwhelming? Oh, yes. But the key is remembering that no individual is responsible for making any of this happen. The singular responsibility is to do your part – and you do your part not “for the good of the world,” but for yourself. Because it’s the only way to understand the next step on your own path. It’s a beautiful example of appropriate selfishness. It’s a lovely paradox. The only way to truly serve yourself is to serve the world.

  2. I am wondering if you are familiar with The Zeitgeist Movement, The Venus Project and The Free World Charter?

    In my mind a mere stand against capitalism is not enough. In the above mentioned movements we are striving to overcome the monetary system alltogether, making everything completely free (no money, no barter, no servitude at all). No nations, no borders, no governments, no laws, no prisons.

    It might be interesting for you to check it out.
