I wanted to draft something grand as an introduction to this POD, but upon reflection cannot improve on Janos’ original post on GW’s blog …
“We are only a half-human species. Modern humans (sapiens sapiens) are about 100,000 years old and our philosophical efforts to understand who we are and where, that started our struggle to become...(more) fully human is, at best, five thousand years old (with capitalism/socialism being but one very recent experiment on the way).
I suggest that this context helps to foster a more creative attitude when viewing the causes and agents of our modern, very sophisticated, slave society. I am dreaming of twelve teams each made up of twelve modern “knights” (144) working together to subdue the (roughly) ten thousand year old conspiracy of a minority to dominate and exploit the surplus labour of the majority.
Zaadzland would be a good community to recruit from. This grand project could start with only a few who could agree a shared vision relevant to the task. Part of the initial team's work would be to engender/design/invent the organic process “snowball dynamics”.
It is suggested that teams would deploy their creative efforts of renewal in twelve areas of human concern (a provisional list): Economics, Politics, Philosophy, Psychology, Education, Sciences, Arts, Healing, Faiths, Esoterics, Biosohy (self development), Symbiosophy (social development).” [Emphasis mind]
So here we are, Modern Knights and Maidens gathered together to engender/design/invent change. We will be reviewing our past, assessing our present, and creating a format or formula to foster growth, creating a more equitable society.
janosI may not come here as often as before but believe that the stuff that has been assembled adds radiant energy to the evolving "global brain" (7 months ago)
