The problem here seems to be that one part of the government tells us we have trouble on our hands, while another part of the government protects the trouble makers. Which means we have an even bigger problem than we think. slate.com/news-and-politics/…

People who say “all you need is a change in consciousness” are privileged enough to have food on the table & a roof over their head; people who think all we need is political change underestimate the psychological & emotional forces that are roiling beneath the surface of things

An enlightened political vision includes: 1/ Front ending resources into first years of life, 2/ focus on waging peace thru higher levels of cooperation rather than waging war through acts of “defense” & 3/ Atonement & amends for natl sins, 4/ climate, economic & criminal justice

3/ Nature knows how to organize itself, as evidenced by cells of the body, patterns of weather etc. This is equally true in civilization as we’re being subconsciously led to relationships and circumstances with the greatest potential to activate the healing of our group dynamic.

2/ We need love to fuel our politics just like hatred and fear fuel the politics of others. Love is a quantum field out of which emerge breakthroughs the rational mind alone can neither formulate nor cause.

1/ The quality of our personhood is as important as our actions at a time like this, and will deeply influence our ability to be effective.
