@kevinhargaden Both hold true and both require action. Of the simultaneity in practice, the experience of prophetic earthworkers confirms the somatic, personal requirements of a functional, coherent synthesis. New World Creation is *made*, and 'The Way', as you call it, requires *being made*.

Copy of tweet and quote tweet beginning here:

I wonder if perhaps the greatest shock of all, facing moderns, is that personal and planetary salvation, or whatever we call it, simply can't be lived vicariously. Ultimately, it transpires, we can't outsource Real life. The work ahead, for each of us, is unavoidably hands-on.

Quote Tweet
Monibot simply can't be flawed for the degree of his concern, passionate sense of urgency and proven moral courage. Nonetheless, our reality, the sages aver, is as large as our experience. Environmentalism is an intellectual pursuit: homecoming, a somatic encounter with the Real.

@teamhumanshow @rushkoff end/ As for your 'much ridiculed' prescription for tool-sharing? You precisely echo both planetary prophetology and indigenous cultures in a universal affirmation of ‘neighborly’ social reality as humanity’s best bet. It's the way common existence naturally functions, after all.

Quoted by@AimeTim 2/ Where the co-evolutionary singularity of a unifying harmony, reconciliation and salvation arises from as much as comes to ground, we come home to the concrete reality of earthly and human solidarity only in so far as we and the world complete one another.Quoted by@RizomaSchool A Pandora's box, that one. Perhaps indigeneity will take varied bio-cultural forms the world over? Whatever it takes to settle in well to the genius of a particularized habitat, together. The form of such solidarity? We make it by walking. Find your people, land, work it, as one.
