The Return of the Übermensch

Introduction/overview:

For years I have been inquiring into the source of social dysfunction which my intuition informs me, and I know I am not alone in this, … is ‘unnatural’ and arises from some poorly chosen ‘assumptions’ in our acculturated thinking. Read the rest of this entry »

Klee's 'Angelus Novus' from Stephane Hessel's 'Indignez Vous!'

On September 11^th, 2002, the first anniversary of 9/11, the CBC aired a Peter Mansbridge interview with Prime Minister Jean Chrétien.  The comments were republished in Canada and around the world under such titles as “PM Says US Attitude Helped Fuel Sept. 11” (Toronto Globe and Mail, 9/11/02), and, “The Power to Humiliate” (Sidney Morning Herald, 9/17/02).

Conflicting Realities; Immigrant versus 'Indigenous'

After Columbus ‘discovered’ America [formerly known as ‘Turtle Island’], waves of colonizing European immigrants moved westward from ‘the Old Country’ and began the process of constructing the New World.   There were many new things that they had to deal with including grizzly bears, poisonous snakes and the troublesome aboriginals that infested the forests and plains.  The knowledge and technology of the immigrants easily overwhelmed resistance from the indigenous ‘fauna’ including the indigenous aboriginal peoples.

In the historical narratives that have been written about this era, those written by the immigrants eulogized the ‘creation of a New World’ while those written by the indigenous peoples spoke of the contamination and degeneration of a superior world, by waves of destructive rodent-like Europeans.

What is holding up the ‘updating’ of ‘biological science’ and ‘medical science’ in the light of a more comprehensive ‘new physics’?

“C. difficile is ‘always in the hospital”, says Dr. Keegan-Henry, intimating that the remedy is not in waging a war against c.difficile but re-storing floral balance in the digestive tract through probiotic therapy.  She goes on to say that people are DYING UNNECESSARILY because the Medical Establishment (which she compares to a runaway supertanker or ‘Titanic-with-no-one-at-the-helm’) suppresses the administering of remedies that ‘don’t fit medical establishment theory’ [the medical establishment "blocks the best medicine"].

What is wrong with the medical establishment’s theory/model? Read the rest of this entry »

material forms are; (a) constructed from bits/pieces, or, (b) ripples within energy-flow?

The development of material form, behaviour and organization has historically/culturally been seen/understood in two evolutionarily-opposite ways;

(a) inside-outward determined material dynamics as in Western biological sciences

(b) outside-inward – inside-outward energy transformation as in the new physics

In (a), ‘genie-like genes’ have the wherewithal to manage the genesis-by-construction of the material organism (e.g. human ‘being’).  In (b), material forms are ripple-structures that gather and re-gather in the evolving energy-charged spatial plenum [‘field’]

While (b) is supported by relativity and quantum physics, (a) is a ‘guess’ that gives the black-box response ‘genes’ to the question; “from whence comes the development of material form, behaviour and organization?”

This ‘hocus pocus’ answer to ‘what is life?’, which assumes inside-outward directed genesis, continues to play a primary foundational role in our globally dominating Western social dynamic, although new biological research is rapidly enlarging the ranks of ‘post-Darwinist’ and ‘post-Genetics’ [‘hologenomic’] scientists.

Summer Solstice Essay, 2011

The world is in a mess and we are having a devil of a time trying to understand why we behave the way we do, individually, and collectively, and ‘psychology’ does not seem to have any answers.  In fact, psychology has been born and bred by those whose inquiry is ‘analytical’, hence the terms ‘psychoanalysis’, ‘Jungian analyst’ etc., and the practice of taking an individual into a safe haven where he can ‘open up’ and divulge to himself, the genetic sources of his own behaviour.

Whatever happened to ‘field’ as in physics, wherein outside-inward influence predominates over inside-outward influence?

electron microscans of plankton (radiolaria skeletons, less than .1mm)

To see a World in a Grain of Sand

And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,

Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand

 And Eternity in an hour

-William Blake, ‘Auguries of Innocence’

The radiolarians are among the most beautiful microbial eukaryotes.  They are significant components of the marine plankton and are characterized by mineralized cytoskeletal components that appear as nested spheres and spines; so that they often look like as tiny free-floating star-bursts.

When large numbers of them and their planktonic relations get together, they look like this; Read the rest of this entry »

Pamphleteering: - Islands Independent photo

My inquiry into ‘what is not going right’ in our mainstream society has now piled up more than 30,000 hours, which, at minimum wage, would have a value of over $250,000.  Here is my latest ‘free’ report. Read the rest of this entry »

When God sprinkled the earth with humans or when they climbed out of clam-shells as in Haida Creation Myth, they were quickly attracted to oases, forest groves, green valleys, snug harbours and paradisiacal islands, like iron filings attracted to magnets.  ‘Community’ thus evolved, in the ‘habitat-orchestrates-the-inhabitants’ manner as Nietzsche has described it; “evolution is a process of diffusion in which outside-inward flow predominates over inside-outward flow.”  That is; the dynamics of habitat orchestrate the dynamics of the inhabitants; when a tree grows tall and sprouts dates, it orchestrates tree-climbing behaviour in humans; ditto for valley corn, prairie grain, forest game and marine fisheries.
