RT @nick_routledge: @SherPoint The Messiah didn't say, "Blessed are the peace-lovers." He said "peacemakers." A teleology of Being, then? The Kingdom-Paradise of the Heaven of Earth, with a homemaker's address. Only the Kingdom gives access to Paradise but only Paradise renders the Kingdom fully concretized.

The Inayatiyya's Ziraat (meaning 'agriculture') concentration, specifically articulates a horticultural/agrarian paradigm as inner path. Meanwhile, the 'paradise gardening' or 'spiritual agriculture' movement sublimates the esoteric-exoteric distinction. t.co/0TykW9g1qc t.co/e5YyCHTBex

Copy of tweet here: the UN special rapporteur on the right to food: “Any hope for justice for all in the United States must address people’s food needs and the food system.” Stuart Haniff, CEO @foodbankrgv: "The truth is, we’re never going to foodbank our way out of hunger." Because the root cause of hunger is inequality, any method of boosting food production that deepens inequality will fail to reduce hunger. Conversely, only technologies that have positive effects on the distribution of wealth, income, and assets, that are pro-poor, can truly reduce hunger. -Miguel Altieri The contemporary 'paradise gardening' or 'prophetic earthwork' movement adds a novel twist, embodying a dynamic reconciliation of path, justice and peace in the natural, immediate sequence of a concrete, native journey into Beauty’s deepest ground. How and why do we garden, then?

Quoted by9/ New World Creation isn’t a hashtag. It’s a middle finger to collapse, soil under your nails, messianic action in the dirt, one shovel and one plot of land at a time, each seed a meme against despair, redeeming history and ourselves where we stand with what we have to hand.
