biodiversity - life

just try replacing  the word "biodiversity" with "life" whenever you come across it. in most cases these days with our excessively dead kind of science and less lively way of life that tends to lend itself to tunnel vision, this should work. (obviously for the <1% of us who are genuine (peculiar) biologists/ecologists/etc., this is not applicable, yet potentially enlightening). note: considering the ecological/historical baseline can be very important, and relative biodiversity (biodiversity in relation to this baseline) should be kept in mind.

example in context - ""Biodiversity” may be one of the multitude of glad outcomes of a path (that is liveable to all species) being found, but it is not the right concept to equip us for the steep, necessarily social and political uphill climb to find it." (from Mongabay article)

chronic vs. acute terrorism - the effects of both are undesirable/denounced by most of the society, though highly likely that there is a difference in intentions of these two different forms of harm/violence against others. the former is usually without much evidence of malintention (but perhaps rather a product of a less harmonious culture/nature) to harm others, while the latter usually has evident (though sometimes nuanced) malintent. the word tends to hold a very serious connotation and crime status that places people on very high attention/alert (understand better with oppressed righteous)

example in context - "someone needs to explain to me why wanting clean drinking water makes you an activist, & why proposing to destroy water with chemical warfare doesn't make a corporation a terrorist." - Winona LaDuke, (from the book Stop Saving the Planet, pg. 118)

example in context - the sociology professor contrasted chronic vs. acute terrorism rather than simply (environmental, societal) ..harm to get the important point across using an admittedly more sensational and attention-provoking word ("terrorism") about the deeply engrained, much subtler, over a much longer period of time, (and so often not given the appropriate recognition) violence/harm caused to nature and many (otherwise appropriate, nature-based) cultures' (including harm to the descendants of the chronic terrorists, see graph for example) ways of life that have been terrorized/destroyed, or made to be an impotent choice in comparison to joining the terrorists.

example in context - sometimes the forms of terrorism can be the same unless being viewed at different time scales (consider the timescale of the heartbeat of the planet for example!), like a general situation such as European/'white' settlers terrorizing Native Americans and their way of life. but sometimes the distinction is very clear - for (the most popular?) examples, the 9/11 attacks is acute terrorism, while an economy that is dependent on crude oil, imbalanced/out-of-scale industrial setup/workings, and capitalist social arrangement that encourages unnatural use/abuse of the environment (resources) and greed, while making it very difficult for all to have the opportunity to live in a natural, happy, responsible, healthy, and truly sustainable way is chronic terrorism

example in context - There is also a less-holistic focus (on the "acute") in publich health when it comes to chemical toxicity, which is not very able to identify subtler or chronic (or even interrelated) negative effects of toxic production/chemicals.

example in context - The teacher asked and taught, "What form of terrorism is Derrick’s words about taking down a down-taking ‘civilization? a) chronic, but not acute, or b) both chornic and acute?... the answer is "a"..." and then the teacher went on to to explain more.

delusional non-present disorder (psychological) - in matters concening the shared existential reality, this disorder refers to inaccurate, incorrect, skewed, or abnormal beliefs or actions that tend to be due to one not being present in that reality.

example in context - Like when consuming recor☠️d media (books, news, music, shows, movies, video games, VR, social media, metaverse, etc.) even once, but especially over and over, there is really a deslusional, non-presence with relation to our shared existential/physical reality.  Though these delusional instances can be beneficial/necessary, there should be more doubt/consideration given when the realm of the shared existential reality and the realm of deslusional non-presence are close together.

example in context - To have better background knowledge to understand this concept, understanding the following concepts can help: ecoliteracy, these related blog posts, my om nama shivaya mash,

example in context - Long-time environmental activist Deanna Meyer clearly talks about the misguided conventional wisdom regarding fires and government's response in this podcast (@ 42 min & 47:30) "... so few people live in the real, physical world…because they can so distract themselves with things that aren't real" 

example in context - The very funny and intelligent if not ingenious animated series "South Park" did (an epic?) satire of this disorder In My Safe Space.

example in context - In Truth, there are beliefs of comfort/convenience vs. belief of how-it-is (which may not match with one's values/biases or beliefs how things should be). One can align their comforts/conveniences with realizing/expressing how-it-is, and we tend to call them scientists, realists, etc.  So there can definitely be overlap of these types of beliefs.  For example, one who society acknolwedges and pays/rewards to realize and express how it is (a scientist, journalist, university professor, student of a good school, etc.).  Some examples of when there is disagreement between the two however include geocentricity, Climate Change is a hoax and not human-induced starting from around the Industrial Revolution, isolated living comfortability (as exemplified in In My Safe Space), being dishonest/immoral for your own security/job to survive (as exemplified by the hard-hitting Upton Sinclair quote), etc.

example in context - Excellent teacher Amit Sengupta says "...Americans are enabled to "have nothing better to do" (with regard to the Russia-Ukraine war).

example in context - While Sadhguru masterfully discusses his new book, he highlights this disorder when he says "but this morbid fear that people have created towards [death], makes us unrealistic.." and "if you're poking yourself from inside... you need to look at this because this is a very cruel joke on all the people who are not doing well (getting poked from the outside)" (here).  Eligh represents a typical (responsible?) developed-world citizen in this rap.

example in context - Sadhguru brings up a sad reality society must face.  The disappointing consequences of the inflated, unrealistic/unrelatable economic-educational system can be understood better hyr.

example in context - The internet and devices that society is on is another technology that enables misidentification/confusions with the shared, existential reality,  incuding the physical reality,  including one’s physical/stable identities, such as gender, and the Woke Discovery YT channel contains videos on this and delusional pronoun thinking.  However I wondered from a less-biased, sociological functionalist perspective, what was the function of such thinking.  Lillian Hellwomon's From human bodies to digital identities - transgenderism, transhumanism & 4th industrial revolution considers transgenderism as "the trojan horse that bridges us from now to (a dystopian/undesirable/life-senseless) transhumansim."

example in context - The sociology professor asked the students to regard Helen's observation and consider to what extent that resulting mass/pop culture is not a reality-based culture: “TV caused people who grew up in its wake to have their minds filled with pseudo-knowledge, rather than actual knowledge. And I think the main consequence of that was the destruction of both high culture and folk or local culture, and their replacement with mass culture and pop culture.” - Helen Andrews

example in context - To even further understand the disorder, the professor then asked the students to write a dialectical essay using a thesis-antithesis-synthesis format to compare delusional non-present disorder to nature deficit disorder.

example in context - Sai Baba gives good parallels of this disorder to the divine, karmic law here, to the adharmic societal injustice here, and to the sinful individual actions/thoughts of maya here.

example in context - This may not be a recognized disorder as it would not help to maintain the society’s stability and sense of security.  Consider how bad science, for example, corresponds with the imbalanced, conflicting economic interests of the USFS.  This society is characterized by economic conditions which are imbalanced, unsustainable, and destructive.  Consider Al Gore citing Upton Sinclair's famous, penetrating words in the "An Inconvenient Truth" documentary film - "It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it."

developmend - mending the formerly touted (model of) overly-extractive, nature-imbalanced "development" - which proved itself to be environmentally unsustainable, ecologically imbalanced, with deceiving socio-economic benefits, and creating unfortunate, unnatural dependencies to an ill setup.

example in context - At early stages of popularized/politicized environmental consciousness, there was much priority given to domestic environmental conservation efforts (e.g. California’s 30x30 initiative), however, this well-intentioned initiative lacked accounting (and awareness?) for the environmental harm done from the exploitation of resources by importing countries (usually rich, developed countries) and the resulting inequity amongst other, often less developed, “poorer” countries, thus not allowing those places to properly developmend their own domestic lands.  The EU took one of the first steps to fix this problem with their ban on deforestation-linked imported commodities, and The Global Commons Stewardship Index (a more holistic Environmental Performance Index) was also developed by the UN, Yale, & the U. of Tokyo.

example in context - In Spring 2025, the World Bank took a great step in the right direction to more conscious, responsible funding of development projects that remedies/prevent social and environmental harms (article)

example in context - Like the above-mentioned 30X30 domestically-focused conservation initatives, Nature-based Solutions (NbS) is a great direction/focus.  However, perhaps there's a need to discuss Daily-Integrative NbS to acknowledge the importance of how - upon holistic evaluation (for example) - all of our day-to-day lives integrate with N-bS to have better balance in survival and extraction (like these illustrations get toward for example)

example in context  - It is becoming increasingly clear that “primitive” ways of life are more advanced/evolved ways of relating to nature/the environment, and the takenforgranted, hyped, overly “developed” way of life is a more outdated, unfortunate way, especially given a clear understanding of the energy/resources needs and environmental impacts.  The former way is sane, balanced, nonviolent, environmentally responsible and sustainable, and natural too, but the latter way has come to dominate, and so much developmending is needed.

example in context - Some examples of (radical) green jobs that go beyond the usual greenwashings of jobs, and actually developmend the environment (and society) damage older generations have left us/you with (can be seen through this YT playlist, the jobs creation.. category, ).

dual health - personal, human health as well as environmental/ecological health

example in context - Though the "one health" approach that emerged from the COVID-19 pandemic was a step in the right direction of more holistically understanding our world, this still too human-centric view was less broadly seeing than a deep green or dual health perspective.

example in context - In the heavyweight roundtable discussion on the plastics crisis, Dr. Leo Trasande notes the "first environmental health test in clinical care (for 50 years, lead was previous), is for PFAS contamination in communities' water.

ecological/historical/reference baseline - the (historical) state of the ecosystem before unnatural, usually unsustainable, ecologically imbalanced & significantly altering human intervention / disruption. ("historical" or "reference" baseline tends to be used in ecological contexts)

example in context - There’s great Interests and Efforts being put forth in restoration (including the high-level authorized “UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration”), but they’re not necessarily the most appropriate ways or without sufficient regard for the natural state of the ecosystem before humans significantly altered it (like this example from Brazil’s Cerrado grasslands). Thus, I think more focus needs to be put on if and how it has been significantly altered with the ideal aim toward full restoration to the original state ("fully recovering native ecosystems"), or at least with that proper awareness, doing the best possible, or what makes most sense (naturally) to do given the complex, dynamic situation.

example in context - Sometimes the historical baseline can be unclear, as can be seen from this example from Madagascar.  But still, fair estimates & good aims can be made, like this example in Cabo Verde, Africa, where fish workers were interviewed to get a better understanding of the fisheries baseline.

example in context - Often the reference baseline can help to avoid harmful/toxic mimics (see video for example on deceptive fire prevention efforts that are actually for harmful economic interests, and how good science can counter such forces).

example in context - Though this concept of ecological baseline focuses on ecology, a similar comparison to way of life can be understood (often in parallel to changing and compromised ecology too).  For example, in Sierra Leone, natives relied on these community forests to harvest timber and other forest produce, hunt for bushmeat and grow staple crops, until the 1900s when industrial-exploitation interests caused massive deforestation destruction that gave way to more recent conservation and carbon credit efforts/projects that rehabilitate the land to a different, new condition.

example in context - Though this understanding of ecological baseline is a general definition, some use it more in relation to their particular circumstances/objectives, (like here, the DOE uses it in relation to the release of hazardous substances)

ecoliteracy - as opposed to the conventionally touted "literacy" (better understood as egoliteracy that reinforces an egonomy), this kind of knowledge is also inclusive of reading imbalanced egos, and defending against harms that are caused by them.  However, this literacy's main importance is in its quality of proper understanding, or awareness of the planet and our relationships to it - relationship especially in the sense of (biological) survival or (environmentally sustainable) balance.

example in context - The collective minds/energies were hard at work in a more complicated situation to transition people from an antiquated, environmentally unsustainable, and imbalanced egoliteracy to a more appropriate ecoliterate society, for various natures, ages, capabilities, cultures, and situations especially toward a more balanced environment and social harmony.  Because some argued or promoted (like Sadhguru, Mere Sai Sai Baba, or myself) that Nature would be instructive, naturally; and so, no need to over-complicate things or mess with one's mind like with that unnecessary "(ego)literacy", or interfere with childrens' natural ability* to learn whatever they are interested in with good guidance from ecoliterate parents, or elders (*but in truly/holistically environmentally sustainable living situations).

example in context - World-renowned Sepp Holzer's words here have profound insight into ecoliteracy (and more outdated "literacy", especially here, when he speaks of people who grow up around nature or not)

example in context - There is a common societal expectation that older people are expected to be more knowledgeable (and even wise), which makes it extra difficult to humble themselves with regard to their lack of ecoliteracy (which is normally picked up at a very young age in more nature-integrated cultures (like indigenous/IPLC ways).  One may see this as similar to the American game show Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader, but there is a major difference in the consequences of ignorance of reality-bearing ecoliteracy vs. more trivial or less practical “knowledge” lauded in that game show and especially the outdated educational system in general (which tends to lead one to a delusional non-present disorder).

egonomy - whereas "economy" actually means "management of the home", this is "management of the ego," which has been accentuated with the use of social media, and has a proven track record to be imbalanced with the boundaries/limits of Nature.

example in context - He argued a natural progression (like geocentricism to heliocentricism) from the better understanding from the proper study of the home ("ecology"), would lead to to the better management of the home ("economy"), with the correct alignment of, or significance given to, the psychological phenomenon known as the egonomy.  Sadhguru also brings up this concern as it relates to children's education, how connected we are to Nature, and how we see ourselves, and other lives.

example in context - Sai Baba teaches a good lesson to avoid the egonomy by basically guiding that we should all be more self-sufficient, not expecting others to do too much for us.  Specifically, it is for wives to not be too much of a servant to their husbands, and be able to be self-sufficient too.

environmental justice vs. environmental social justice - the former is the type of repayment or justice after such undeserved harm to our environment, without any regard to social injustices that may be interrelated or seen as connected (especially to the extent it generally holds true that those marginalized people/races who are disadvantaged by the predominant, less natural sociopolitical systems, are also most susceptible to disruptions in more natural conditions), which would be the latter.

example in context - More technical maybe, but in these early days of environmental justice, there seems to be a confusion or at least mix-up (sometimes rightly so, thus making this distinction of environmental justice and environmental social justice less meaningful) of the justice many are much more familiar with, which is justice among humans, especially lopsided socio-economic unfairness to non-males and certain races/ethnicities (that could be categorized as "BIPOC"). One specific example of this confusion can be found in the case of this black community's opposition (not for environmental reasons) of artificial-solar energy in Florida.

example in context - Though consideration of the distinction of environmental justice and environmental social justice may not be as clear or obvious, sometimes it is, like unfairness in water access/use, like among various farming operations in the Central Valley (also here), fossil fuel/ artificial energy control/use, like developed vs. undeveloped world,

example in context - There are various kinds and views of justice, and it’s pertinent to see how social justice can often be in conflict with justice for the environment or the nature (both external/environmental and internal/individual types of nature)

example in context - Usually, with efforts to amend or solve societal problems, there has been, and is heavy humancentric emphasis on the social dimension to generally, either (a) fairly help all (like the same amount of brown help platforms in the “EQUALITY” image, or (b) recognize involuntary disadvantages (like race or gender), and then help accordingly (like in the “EQUITY” image). Good intentions and increased opportunities / standards of living as it may be, however both of these may (and have) not accounted for the externalized costs/pressures put on the environment/planet in the making of those helps/platforms.  Instead, focus on “JUSTICE” to the environment/planet which we humans have collectively degraded with our unsustainable way of life & inhumane economy/culture (that’s likely to have caused such “disadvantages” to begin with also), would likely naturally facilitate a kind of “level playing field” as it were, also remembering other important considerations too (like dynamickarma, climate change injustice, for example,).

example in context - Regarding environmental social justice, my trulof hip hop recording  more holistically and compassionately considers those that Society has found guilty and put in jail/prison... HasanAbi also suggests about how general reintegration initiatives (not just for California inmates fighting wildfires) would be good to have.

example in context - When considering “community empowerment,” it may be most relevant to understand it in the context of equal oppression, or more monolithic, uniform living conditions of an overwhelmingly intrusive or dominant/imbalanced Economy.  And so, the empowerment can be either empowerment within those destructive/imbalanced conditions of a misguided Economy (often/traditionally known as “social justice”) vs. protection from that destructive economy (like this case in Mexico)

example in context - Another angle to "justice" is the framework of the extension of the "planetary boundaries" warning-concept, which is known as "Earth System Boundaries," which includes three justice criteria (“3Is”) to planetary boundaries:

1) interspecies justice and earth system stability (environmental only)

2) intergenerational justice that stems from the thought that we need to recognise the potential long-term consequences of short-term actions and associated trade-offs and synergies across time (environmental and social)

3) (intragenerational) justice between countries, communities and individuals... (that also) considers multiple and overlapping social identities and categories like gender, race, age, etc. (social)

From this then, one can clearly see how the US Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (immature/incomplete) understanding of "environmental justice" only meets the 3rd criteria above.

example in context - The US Dept. of Energy’s "environmental justice" funding is going to non-EJ companies (especially like this fracking company).

example in context - Scientists have underscored that human equity and well-being could mark a tenth planetary boundary; the concern being that violating the thresholds of those other nine boundaries could quickly lead to the undermining of basic human rights, to social chaos, economic collapse, and authoritarianism. (from Mongabay article, and the Nature article)

example in context - The astute student suggested, “..like if another peoples, nation (or planet) attacks, climate change, global warming, and other shared enemies (of various common environmental threats for example) effectively act as a unifying force, breaking down more superficial (though perceived as/potentially important) differences between people, like those of appearance, like race/ethnicity for example, right?.., then there’s forces / media that emphasize this ‘environmental justice’ thing about disproportionately impacting people of color, or BIPOC… which acts against getting past those superficial differences..” and the wise professor replied, “Yes astute student, good point, but on the other hand, people like to do/support good things, and helping marginalized peoples like the ‘BIPOC’ kinds seems to essentially count for a point... and stopping environmental harms - well, that is like a bonus point, even better.  So from that (more functionalist) perspective, the reality of those forces can be better understood/justified.”

example in context - see my blog post for even more clarity

example in context - The purpose of the daily national pledge to the USA flag with the right hand over the heart as school children was “..for liberty/responsibility and justice for all”. And so, considering both, that post-responsibility (and as opposed to proactive/pre-responsibility, “payback can be a bitch/unfortunate,” or with fitting consequences to the credit card transaction approach?) includes wickedly complex, unfortunate, though needed environmental restoration efforts (like SER, native/smart seed restoration, ecosystem restoration opportunities, ) many of the pledgers (and non-pledgers) will find themselves having to payback (like this?) on this account, one way or another; whether desired or not.. and as "I daydream of another dimension..."

note: some people (whether expressed with angeRage, love, concern, etc.) “pledge no allegance” as they see how the USA does/would (or hopefully did, as enabling conditions for truly sustainable livelihoods would be made priority and defended) not provide the freedom and justice for all (including Americans, non-Americans and even all the non-human beings)

environmental health - like one's own personal health or even a less precise "public health," this is the measurement of quality or simply the state of natural, healthy condition of the environment; the external experienced world including the appropriate harmony of the 5 natural elements (earth, water, fire, air/wind, and ether)

example in context - Currently "environmental health" has a more human-centric meaning (see EHN for example) that refers to the (mostly human-caused) environmental influences that then karmaconsequently impact human health, from smog to antibiotic resistance from industrial livestock operations.  However another meaning (which a future-oriented thinker might use) would be to reify the Environment as if it were a patient, like in the profound ER analogy (video here) by a powerful Nature advocate, or the relatively nascent Rights of Nature legal framework.

exergy - seems to be like accounting for "externalized costs" or the concept of "embodied energy."  Rather than a more dated, narrower measure such as "energy," for ecological understandings-investigations, this concept (or even analytical tool) provides a more holistic-accurate account to better see our destructive human impacts.  (see pg. 51/52 from this compendium for more detail)

example in context - Non-peaceful or excessive energy seeking/addiction of many (like of  modern civilization / the city) can translate to a problematic, too-high exergy value.  In relation to food, at the individual level, similar to gluttony, but more than the large amount of food, the large amount of exergy embodied in the whole life cycle of the food, and may be associated with pathological  “hanger” (hungry-anger, for example (but not to discount really good, healthy ways to resolve anger issues)).  Also, at the societal level, excessively high exergy food can be generally understood as enabled by our unfortunate, unsustainable way of life that has resulted in continued weak dependencies on such imbalanced/unsustainable exergies of a destructive food system (see this article on the FAO's The State of Food And Agriculture 2023 report for example), and way of life. Then, in relation to sex, sexual appetite/cravings would be less if survival (which is also relative to various needs of various people)  wasn’t as easy or in favor of us humans; wasn’t as supported by excess-energy consumption.  Another way to consider this is that the high degree of liveliness/attraction to sex-charged situations, is likely at imbalanced/undeserved costs to others, biodiversity, energy..

example in context - sadhguru has talked about how the non-physical, very powerful ojas energy does not conform to the usual, scientifically understood physical layer of existence, and so, one can steal/excessively take energy from this physical, finite world without having a negative impact on their gross-level health as the energy in the food is converted to a non-physical energy. such a phenomenon seems to further complicate an already-complicated task for good policies and (subsequent) evaluation of our human society's undesirable environmental impacts (as sadhguru has himself been very much a part of, through initiatives/movements including "save soil" and other various reforestation efforts)

example in context - A very highly complex, subjective, dynamic issue & dilemma especially pervading in our present modern-day society is concerning when we come across very, too-high exergy products that have been produced without our consent, demand, or request, we (may) realize it has been produced at (varying levels of) high externalized cost to the environment & biodiversity/life, yet it's already there, and would otherwise sort of go to waste or somebody else would use it if we don't. There sare so many examples of this, but here are a few examples of this:

*the amount of exergy, or similarly-specifically water used to grow various foods (like a more quantitative Water Footprint Calculator can show), but perhaps a good, more congruous, common-sense solution is to consider obtaining-consuming a "natural" amount (the amount one would have in more environmentally sustainable or natural conditions).  For example, there was much effort, intelligence and sophistication in calculations regarding the amount of water used to grow, 1 almond for example (~1 gallon)... or one may consider having.. ~ a quarter almond tree's worth of almonds/year (maybe more or less depending on if its local or not to them), which may average ~ 15 lbs., or ~ 1 lb./month

*from unsustainable development / land use, the (drastic) ecological changes that may be then incorrectly assumed to be the new baseline/standard for comparison for environmental health (consider rainforest to pasture in Brazil for example).  And so, may be important to (have records to) know the historical land use.

*What to do with certain/valuable seized items, like marijuana or ivory? (and to add even more complexity, another article to consider)

*solar panels

example in context - It is apparent that the USA EPA is also broad-sighted enough to see that we need to also measure-account for imported/external good/activities (like this focus on "Scope 3" GHG emissions for example).

Nature connection/harmony vs. environmental sustainability - Though not as clear (especially when exergy/“embodied energy” of things are taken into account), one’s way of life can be  environmentally sustainable without or with less connection to Nature.  However, it seems that one’s way of life that is in connection with Nature, is almost certain to be environmentally sustainable.

example in context - This distinction of how one's/a group's way of life is considered is like focusing in on the aim of the "lifestylist."  Yet another distinction that takes it a step beyond to the level of the "deep green's" inclusivity/responsibility would perhaps be how environmentally responsible  (at a holistic/global level, like the highest rank of 5) the individual/society is.

example in context - The youth headed to a career in (traditional/too-centralized as opposed to relocalized/tribal) government, understood that though people with a Nature-based way of life could serve as a great example for others, there may be a greater need for them to focus on preventing / better guiding the more objective, shared negative social consequences of environmentally harmful and unsustainable ways of life.

example in context - Sai Baba has an extremely supportive, sacred view of Nature by saying to not cut any trees, which can make one’s livelihood more difficult, but definitely doable.  Such a world-view that sees trees as equal to humans can be beautiful and inspiring (and more evolved) compared to other views, but also unnecessary for environmental sustainability purposes, which can include a moderate, balanced, and truly sustainable approach to land management (for examples).

example in context - There's beliefs, such as religious/spiritual beliefs, that may not impact others (and obviously examples where it does negatively impact others, like the European/white culture's historical “Bible and gun” conquest of "primitive" peoples).  The belief in / objective of environmental sustainability is different from many other beliefs since it impacts all of us (and future generations) on the also-important physical plane of existence.

example in context - In setting up Regenerative Ag. for Indigenous, Time can iron out cultural disorders of European/white violent conquest, or distort native/indigenous ways of life (of less-controlled hunting and gathering for example).  In other words, isn’t it ironic that the very similar (albeit somewhat smarter and improved) settler agriculture and associated way of life that destroyed the native way of life, is now shown as the way for them?  Is this “indigenous” merely by genetics/race, or by activity?  To the extent it may be wise to forget the past and deal with the present, the question becomes if the activity is environmentally sustainable?  The next question is if it is culturally appropriate / in balance and harmony with Nature.

example in context - Maybe there is a parallel of religious suitability and way of obtaining food.  Religion may be like more controlled permaculture/agricultural growing, and religion may not be for everybody, but it can be helpful for one to “sow” better (re the karmic wisdom of "you reap what you sow").  A more wild, hunter-gatherer may be more like one who does not even need the crutch of a religion to be the best they can be.

oppressed righteous - those unable to, or unreasonably difficult to do right; oppressed when trying to do right (understand better with righteous radicalism). "One becomes a revolutionary only when he is wronged.  Stop injustice on them and people won't have any reason to fight" (from Mere Sai)

example in context - It is understood (in Hinduism) that this age of Kali (Kali Yuga) makes it much more likely for there to be struggles for doing/being good; for there to be oppressed righteous (as mentioned in Mere Sai)

example in context - Sometimes to even really know what's right is a challenge, but then when one realizes what is right, and then is oppressed from doing so... what an incredibly frustrating and really difficult situation to be in!

example in context - "..there's no real acknowledgement of the fact that we (especially in the West/developed places) live in systems and a culture that makes it fundamentally difficult to do the right, responsible, or sustainable thing" (from 9:46)

example in context - Another name of oppressed righteous are "criminalized victims" (or helpless criminals), as the supposedly responsible, authoritative legal or governmental system does not have a legitimate mechanism for protecting correct norms

example in context - Demarcating into groups of either oppressor and oppressed, oppressors are given the benefit of the doubt of: righteous ignorance; a complex, too-distant/centralized no thanks to oil Economy, dilemma-like governing situation (for examples), or (very subjective) favorable (karmic) timing (of awareness). And it's of course a less clear, and even dynamic, area of what “right” may be, but the bottom line is that one in an authoritative position should take extra caution/effort to not make it difficult for, or oppress the governed people they are supposed have (legitimate) authority over to do right.  Perhaps the best methods to consider in ensuring they are able to do right is: (1) the simple, yet often critically important consideration of if you were in their position, and (2) (more challenging) to despoil/disable them from a misguided way of life, and instead a way of life in line with their true nature/dharma (I've attempted to list examples/directions for such needed rehabilitation).  Similarly of course, the ruled-over class should not misuse the opportunity (or freedom) they have to do right. And of course, both general classes have (deep karmic) consequences of their actions.  Finally, similarly, the guidance can also be vice versad too - the rulers should of course not misuse their power/freedom, and the governed would also be better to try to not make it difficult / unpleasant for the rulers to enable their (relatively spoiled) selves ( and so more or less painfully) to rehabilitate.

example in context - The Aarhus Convention is a good example to protect against oppression of righteous actions.  The convention is a legally-binding international framework developed in 1998-2001 mostly agreed to by European countries mostly, and protects the right to peaceful environmental protest and prohibits the oppression (persecution, penalization or harassment) of anybody seeking to protect their (super basic/reasonable) right to live in a healthy environment.

example in context - Let alone criminalizing, oppressing, jailing them, non-criminal protest efforts can take a toll on activists too, like taking on a second full-time job. (see article)

example in context - We should “focus on solutions”? (like transitioning our artificial energy dependency to hyped renewables?) when true, meaningful change happens from dismantling (at the root/source of) the destructive, imbalanced, and unsustainable Economy? Such thought expressed there by Kalmus and Scientific Rebellion would support oppressing righteous groups (such as Deep Green Resistance) from doing right.

example in context - There'd be a lot less oppressed righteous when the mainstream criminal justice system evolves its awareness to expand its marginalizing/criminalizing behaviors (of corporations/industries as well as individuals) in relation to its ecological impact (e.g. excess (embedded) energy needs/addictions), or impact on nature.

specific examples include:

• Global Witness group working to help the oppressed righteous

• Cambodian activists that were unjustly criminalized/imprisoned (later honored)

• Lack of resolution mechanisms allow palm oil conflicts to fester in Indonesia

• Jessica Reznicek (and Greenpeace faced with a SLAPP)

• see Normalizing radical and Oppressed righteous categories for more ideas and examples

example in context - As 20/20 hindsight can help prevent making the same mistakes, to see similarity in undesirable dependency-making situations can help to prevent repeating such mistakes of the past.  Just as their was oppression from right, sustainable livelihoods of villagers/rural dwellers that were impelled to migrate with an unsustainable, abstract survival, toward the money found in the cities, there is potential for similar oppression of undesirably impelling people to depend on actively using, or just being connected to, this artificial internet (not to even mention passive disconnection, yet still undesirably disturbed at a subtle invasive level just physically being within the space / close proximity to unwanted electromagnetic radiation pollution).

example in context - A lighter form of oppression of dismantling the credibility of, for example, deep green "hypocrits" that use the same technology that they are opposing (see editor's note) does not itself have as much credibility... unless they go to the really deep, karmic level of how those supposedly noble, righteous deep greens are in such an unfavorable position of struggle to begin with, but (wisely) give me/us a break.. to heal that level/layer (can/should you?)

organic - multiple meanings, but here conceptualized as "natural" (as opposed to being forced, for example), and furthermore, especially in the often-used context of agricultural marketing

example in context - Similar to the reflexivity of politics and the health of all people in the society (or even the reflexivity of the humans' ((more evolved) perception of their) position in ecological relation of their world), the dynamic meaning of "organic" appears to be very much dependent on where the social economy is in its relation to food, and has been mostly referring to better (but still with much room for improvement) methods of growing food, without using chemical fertilizers, pesticides, etc.

example in context - Though it is considered natural/organic, elemental sulfur is the most widely used pesticide in the US and is not benign (article).  What other "organic" pesticides are there that have negative impacts to human or environmental health?

example in context - A parallel of environmental health and human health, Sadhguru on importance of healthy soil that’s having high SOM (which then wouldn’t require so much external/irrigated water), and Sadhguru on importance of eating our water - both ways already have the water integrated in the soil, or the food - seems organic (and tend to have more life-sense) to me.

example in context - The more we shift our methods of food growing (from right awareness) to truly ecological, or in right relation to the planet; environmentally sustainable, the more outdated the "organic" marketing label will get (like the nascent "climate-friendly" label, which seems to easily imply that the previous "organic" standards are insufficient, and upon an increased, good awareness of our climate-related agricultural situation, it will be clear that the "organic" label is a step in the right direction at best (and at worst, given the urgency of needed societal/agricultural industry changes, less desirable / weaker, and even promoting an unfortunate false confidence and corresponding complacency, as the '25 Deep Change Theory report by the UN corroborates).

example in context - The 50 year-old organization California Certified Organic Farmers (CCOF) gives their explanation of "organic" here

example in context - It is sad/unfortunate when contraindicated forces (such as Walmart (and the consumers'/our demands for the mostest-bestest at the lowest cost)) effectively dilute the good-intentioned labels embedded in "organic" or "regenerative" ag. operations.

example in context - Though this seems to be a step in the right direction (?and thus called "organic"?), when one compares biofertilizers to outdated chemical fertilizer, but it seems a misnomer to call this "organic" since the process to make such biofertilizers seems more similar to GMO processes (which are juxtaposed to "organic").  Instead, agroecological approaches (perhaps reviewed, rated (on a scale like LEED ratings?),  and verified/certified by experts) that would smartly enable the Nature-dominant conditions to provide (how do you say?) healthy ecosystems, healthy soil, healthy microbiomes in the soil, etc may be the best benchmark at this time.  Whatever it's called, consider the actual effects of the activity, you know? (about a toxic mimic)?

example in context - Soil is normally made by Mother Nature (or God) naturally, but in these abnormal conditions characterized by us humans so hugely destroying our environment, it is a good idea we intelligently soilify all our food waste, humanure, and other appropriate organic and inorganic wastes the best way we know to regenerate our environment.

Permaculture possibilities - though “permaculture” is a method responsive/resistive to an impermanent, holistically less functional, environmentally unsustainable way of living (especially contrasting impermanent industrialized agriculture), this catch-all term has many different possibilities for its actualization, reflecting variabilities amongst people and geographies (especially to generally note the degree of control of and limitations by the external environment)

example in context - V. Shiva's suggestion for a "krishi sahasranam" (basically meaning "thousand names of farming") for various ecological food growing practices reveals many permaculture possibilities.  Some namams can include:

☸ let the roots breathe better and be well nourished in non-compacted and nutritious/healthy soil

☸ Climate Change contingency succession plans

☸ BIOS for life, not death (biophilic orchard-centric land use)

Problematic Problem-Solving - (PPS) - problem-solving in situations that are "problematic" themselves, and applied to environmental problems, this is mainly due to dependency on an imbalanced, environmentally unsustainable way of life

example in context - The sociology professor tried to elucidate the relatively difficult concept of PPS by pointing to examples: from inherently problematic, or contradictory, social institutions like the political system (itself, that nobody voted for)... to imbalanced, profit-oriented marketing spin on greenwashed energy solutions and products/services... to the "sick" medical system.. and Fukuoka's words from "The One Straw Revolution" (pg. 18 / seen below) seemed to be impressed upon, or resonate most with the students' minds, which further motivated them to step up to STEP (Source-Targeting Environmental Protection):

“Human beings with their tampering do something wrong, leave the damage unrepaired, and when the adverse results accumulate, work with all their might to correct them. When the corrective actions appear to be successful, they come to view these measures as splendid accomplishments. People do this over and over again. It is as if a fool were to stomp on and break the tiles of his roof. Then when it starts to rain and the ceiling begins to rot away, he hastily climbs up to mend the damage, rejoicing in the end that he has accomplished a miraculous solution...”

example in context - "Today we thought, "Very easily you can put out the medical facts, and say, 'This is it'"... but unfortunately look at this - how it is happening.  It doesn't matter what technological tools we have.  Till we transform individuals, this is how it's going to be.  Technology doesn't really solve the problem..." - Sadhguru

examples in context - Alhough for more than a century, chlorination has been a cornerstone of public health, virtually eliminating deadly waterborne diseases like cholera and typhoid, chlorinated drinking water is linked to higher cancer risk.

example in context - The professor then further elucidated the socially & environmentally malignant virtues and deceiving intelligences that rewards questionable, misguided, short-sighted, or improper values (like prioritizing profit/production most/too much, false confidence in COVID vaccinations, needed spiritual progression for some, “going green”, “eating healthy”...), and emphasized them to remember the lower, animalistic innate nature or tendency for "bad happiness" (happiness at others' sorrows), and how we should try to stigmatize this in favor of a richer culture that encourages the upliftment of the human (spirit), and not at the detriment to the health and sustainability of the environment.

example in context - “It really looks good. They put money into it, and science, and children. The underlying problem wasn’t fixed. But their reputation was fixed.”- Robin Cohn, a crisis PR specialist and author of The Crisis PR Bible, from Bayer's bee care initiative raises questions about PR priorities article regarding real pesticide use problem and superficial Public Relations gloss-over.

some more popular examples - ...supporting artificial (though renewable-source like wind and sun) energies, promoting recycling,  consuming green(washed) products, being more efficient in consumption, etc.

example in context - “Climate change is challenging not because we do not understand why and how carbon emissions accumulate in the atmosphere, but because acting accordingly would imply subverting power relationships that benefit from the system’s own malfunction.” From ~pg. 24, True Cost Accounting for Food, Balancing the Scale

example in context - “Pledging to make your operations ‘net zero’ when your entire raison d’etre is to continue producing the fossil fuels destroying the livable world: this is like pledging to become more energy-efficient when your business is manufacturing electric chairs.” from X/Twitter

example in context - To help solve the need for massive amounts of electricity-energy for anticipated accelerated ↑ in AI use, massive investment-development for nuclear fusion-generated energy is in the planning stages (article)

example in context - A Stanford chemical engineering scientist sees precious resources in wastewater (like producing ammonia from nitrate pollution) (article)

example in context - Based on district-level data, the survey underlined the farm income losses of 15% percent to 18% on average, rising to 20-25% for unirrigated areas. India needs to spread irrigation – and do so against a backdrop of rising water scarcity and depleting groundwater resources, the survey has recommended. (from Mongabay article)

example in context - The student then asked the professor wisely, "Is the article, Scientists studying microplastics in Antarctica discover... it almost all came from their ship, an example of PPS or just a self-critical, more evolved awareness of PPS, that reveals the merit/honesty of the relatively objective process/method of Science?"

example in context - They may be able to “see through the dust,” but could they see how their actions were not balanced, healthy, or sustainable with the environment?

example in context - "In the run-up to the elections, political parties have announced a number of measures aimed at farmers, including crop insurance, loan waivers and a minimum basic income. These are primarily economic measures, aimed at one-off treatment of farmer distress. But is the farming crisis a one-time disaster that requires a bailout, or an inherently risky business that needs systemic support? The roots of India’s agro-pastoral crisis are ecological and require systemic ecological measures for treatment. Yet this aspect is completely missing from the current debate." (from India’s farming crisis is a crisis of the ecological commons article)

relocalization - around the globe these days, there are not as many people that live locally as our ancestors did (especially in the “Global North”), and for such people who revert back to a locally-based way of life as opposed to the few that are still continuing to live locally, this phenomenon or development/developmend paradigm applies.

example in context - it seems more important to setup our day to day living conditions to enable habitual good, environmentally-friendly choices, which is greatly accomplished when relocalization of our needs/infrastructures/livelihoods occur.

example in context - from an epidemiological view, relocalization and environmental protection (from harmful/unsustainable business/industry-as-usual) may be the two main + and - priorities respectively

example in context - relocalization should be done smartly, responsibly, in balance, with good conscious, good faith and maybe even appropriate incentivization sometimes, strength, inner-correctness, resilience, etc.

resilience+ (exclusive/continued unnatural vs. +inclusive/transformative natural) - the capacity to withstand or to recover quickly from difficulties using the same tactics that got you in those difficulties to begin with or +withstanding/recovering using evolved and transformative means to transcend those difficulties

example in context - A simple way to disregard this distinction would be to simply attach the critical co-requirement of resilience as resilient and/+ truly sustaining.  This means there should be a sufficient understanding to not continue those actions that got ourselves/society into such an undesirable position to begin with.

example in context - The often-used, highly desirable word "resilience" usually functions as a collective goal/value that we should aspire towards, but it is important to have just enough critical thinking / awareness when the term is used so that we understand what kind of resilience is being called for - or if imbalanced, outdated systems are reinforced (in the ag supply chain for example), or if +/needed transformations are occurring (which may be as clear as the waters).  A good, simple, yet difficult-inconvenient question to ask, is something like, "Would this 'resilience' manifest in a more balanced nature/environment and society."  Two major considerations of how resilient+ one is are: 1) familiarity in one’s way of life and 2) age.

example in context - In the Northern Great Plains, there's rejection of the human link to climate change, with actions that emphasize adaptation and resilience rather than mitigation. (from article)

example in context - Are freedom-loving/-hyping Americans turning to resilience-loving next?  Well, it can be great (and hopefully lasts just as long as needed to get out of undesirable circumstances), and similar to an adage that focuses on the right balance of freedom ("freedom to vs. freedom from"), think of the consequences of resilient actions as either exclusive or inclusive.  Or - like nobody wants 'the bad guy'/enemy to be resilient; nobody wants a resilient... let's say virus or COVID-19.  So reflect, "In these/our 'resilient' actions, are we like a virus amongst the living planet?  How is it impacting all other living beings?"  Especially when one is already in very difficult circumstances (as is implied to even use the word resilient to begin with), to go beyond and worry about others may really be expecting too much, but (like 'being between a rock and a hard place') to have false confidence in the foundations of an exclusive, PPS-type of resilience, this is also undesirable.)

resoil/soilify - synonymous with "compost", to make soil again; the process of humans/consciously making soil

example in context - The formidable plan aimed to resoil much areas of our earth that had been degraded by destructive human activities.

example in context - Soil is normally made by Mother Nature naturally, but in these abnormal conditions characterized by us humans so hugely destroying our environment, it is a good idea we intelligently soilify all our food waste, humanure, and other appropriate organic and inorganic wastes the best way we know to regenerate our environment.

slow money (environmentally sustainable/ecological) - given a relocalization paradigm where the group of people’s immediate/own ecosystem is valued/protected, as well as being conscientious to not harm other distant peoples environment, this is a kind of money/value that is earned slowly and steadily, with very great stability as it is not/less harmful in a holistic, ecological, environmental sense

note: of course there’s money that can be made “slowly” that is very much maligned, with the misguided Economy, but that is not the meaning here. Also, even more sustainable than “slow money” would to be even less/not connected to, or dependent on, the mainstream Economy like more isolated tribes/people that subsist off the land or other self-sufficient ways of life (like a 9 or 10), but the meaning here is for partial participation in that Economy

example in context- Of course the value of money is arbitrary and dynamic, but the underlying value of the mainstream Economy that is destructive, imbalanced, and dependent on nonsensical, unsustainable industrial levels of artificial energies (especially oil for example) is also unsustainable.  An economic paradigm shift to (re)localized ways of life would have the more gradual (weaning) shift that would include things like local exchanges, local currencies, and even transitional/relatively slow money.  I thought the well-established Twin Oaks community was an especially good example of slow money, where after the responsibilities of immediate community needs/work and few communal business activities are cooperatively done, “each member receives a small personal spending allowance ($75/mo.) to cover items/needs the community does not provide.”

(counter) example in context - An example of agribusiness-as-usual fast money (to contrast with slow money) is this easy-to-understand scenario from Solitude Farm (Auroville, Tamil Nadu/India):

Let’s take a local farmer growing an acre of peanuts. He spends a thousand rupees for plowing the land, another thousand rupees on compost, another thousand rupees on buying seeds, another thousand rupees on the first weeding, another thousand rupees for the second weeding and probably there are more maintenance and running costs. In that field, if Sundakkai, wild spinaches, Mudakathan or Thoothuvalai comes up, the farmer will immediately remove those plants as weeds. His focus, obviously, is on the economic gain those peanuts offer him. Those peanuts will be sold to the middle man and the farmer and his family receive no nutritional gain from the crop.  The farmer is squeezed within the economic paradigm of industrialized agriculture which values economic gain over  nutritional, medicinal, ecological, social and cultural values of the food he grows.

Source-Targeting Environmental Protection (STEP) - as opposed to what mostly passes today for "environmental protection" (see P.P.S. above for more understanding), this approach gets at the source of the environmentally destructive economic activity of humans.

main examples - Stopping the industrial sources of misguided business: oil/natural gas extraction, mining, deforestation, dams and canals, agriculture, fishing, 

example in context - It is great and hopeful more people are becoming aware of the need to heal the environment that has been so harmed, from "being the change" to even supporting good intentioned causes like ecological restoration, reforestation, etc., but without STEP to block further environmental harm at the actual source, such efforts would obviously not be as effective, if not sort of silly,,, like, sort of tragic (like, again, Derrick Jensen's ER analogy)

example in context - The Global Commons Stewardship Index accounts for not just the domestic impacts of a country (like the less holistic EPI), but also the externalized/"spillover" impacts of a country.

stilldigenous - counterpart to "indigenous", these technically "non-indigenous" (yet good-intentioned / good-willed people) still have a way of life that is in balance with Nature like the typical/traditional way of life of those referred to as "indigenous"

example in context - Though BIPOC discrimination of non-colored ("white") people (especially due to their overwhelmingly bad track record against BIPOC and Nature.. and the natures of BIPOC) seemed unfair, these (too?) clever people knew that if they fixed their bad tendencies/reputations, and committed to a truly good way of life, they'd easily be embraced with an honorable "stilldigenous" status (at that level of thinking)

example in context - As opposed to exclusively "indigenous," IPLC (Indigenous peoples and local communities) makes very good sense (for example in this context), and can be the critical change needed in cases such as this one, where Brazil’s biggest bauxite mining firm denies riverine rights.  IBAMA does not have to help the stilldigenous locals because they are not PFIC-having “indigenous” or “Quilombola.”  Daniel Christian Wahl also explains the arbitary, less descriptive definition of "indigenous" in the sense we will all be indigenous again - here.

example in context - Indigenous people (if still alive, sadly) usually have a great track record to not harm the environment like the developed, civilized society, but there's of course intradiversity of that categorization of "indigenous" that includes assimilated (to a violent, nearly unavoidable conqueror's culture) indigenous, and sometimes they also unfortunately participate in bad, as George Wuerthner speaks clearly on (from ~13 minutes)

example in context - "Stilldigenous" attempts to unify indigenous/wisdom cultures and non-indigenous/typical modern cultures with the common basis of how effectively their way of life is sustainable and balanced with the natural world.  However, there is most likely a "fundamental difference in the nature of mind" between the two cultures.

upliftment, psychological/sath (conscious) vs. (unconscious) by mere virtue/karma/citta (intelligence unsullied by memory)

Example from Mere Sai  episode where Baba is so elevated that his mere presence/virtue has such uplifting power, and his oneness/yogic-like awareness is so genuine and strong.  Contrasted with the relatively lower/weaker level of thinking and subsequent being (that I currently have) to judge that we are all not just different by name, but by sort of constitution (though changeable, improvable) - from our subjective feeling of content/joy that is based on our karmas (including having the blessings of being in the presence of uplifting forces, like that leper had), and level of freedom (how animalistic or super human tendency?), or mukti (as Sadhguru explains the importance of here).

example in context - Sadhguru and Daniel Schmachtenberger both do a great job explaining the social-pscyhological meanings/language (many of us are too familiar with) that do not really/necessarily accurately relate to reality, vs. the existential nature of what really exists (in sound, or even in the absence of struggle for examples).

example in context - Regardless of one's belief/rationale (in fact sometimes it would be in opposition to their action), one can find themselves unaware of supporting something they don't believe in! - like President Trump who appears to not care much for people or planet, God knows has great virtue still, and his unpopular tariffs on foreign imports, actually encourages an environmentally-gold standard priority of relocalization, which can nicely couple with Trump's vision for a stronger, more independent American economy via a shift to domestic/local production.

example in context - Yogic paths (to God) can be done in unexpected contexts, like karma and bhakti paths with efforts (and intentions/devotion) involved in scientific reasoning/pursuits is like religious praying in relation to focused energy.

Sadhguru also explains this awareness nicely in his "Karma" book about how it is not one's karma, but our, collective karma..

If words are put in some way to uplift... if energies are put in some way to uplift, how aware are you, or are you aware? of your upliftment..

more words

bilkul - usually “certainly/sure” in Hindi, but Indian slang for too-kul paper bil money that is not warm/hot/h8, with life energies.  It should be reminded that other abstract (mostly fossil-fuel enabled) forms of money, like electronic-tied plastic cards or internet/crypto currencies, that has externalized cost to harm the environment is also too-kul.

example in context - Upon asking if they take e-payment, the seller gave an unimpressed, neagtive (though also somewhat confusing to the Hindi-speaking, Life-senseless programmer), "Bilkul"

bwhat - a form of "what", to be used when also suggesting or asking "but...?" simultaneously. especially in response to a narrower-minded, ignorant, or less-informed statement or expression. also, especially to be used with Indian or Spanish accents pronouncing "w" as "v" or "b" as "v", respectively.

example in context - Maya replied, "?bwhat...?" when the disappointing U.S.A. president declared building a wall on the U.S.A./Mexico border.

example in context - Confused around the nascent gender pronouns digital presentation of self (e.g. he/him/his whatever), the reality-based elder thought, "?bwhat!?," and then after hearing an excellent, dense briefing online, thought to add his own reality prosplains digital presentation for increased awareness linking with 9:41/10:01/13:59  more better --> …the pronouns? how about the responsibility (...responsibility) (cuz they too free)

fatestore - as is meant to be, as in what Fate has in store (or even Fate's door), English alternative to "adios"

example in context - when used as people are departing from each other, there are expressions that imply there will be another meeting, with phrases like "hope to meet again" or "till next time" (au revoir). And another phrase that is especially relevant for (expectation of) intention-heavy relations/communications, fatestore can be used (to balance), especially to signify a lack of intention/desire, but leaving it up to Fate/God's Will.  Often would be used with other faith-based phrases such as "God bless," "God is great," "Valle con Dios" (go with God), and  (perhaps redonedantly) "adios" (to God).

huh-sexual - indicating sexuality (such as "homosexual" or "heterosexual"), this is a category that suggests confusion akin to the expression “huh?,” as sexuality is naturally intended for procreation, to produce the next generation of offspring.  Huh-sexual suggests where there is sexual activity that is confusing this purpose.  Of course this includes homosexuality, but even heterosexuality that detracts/prevents the natural, offspring-bearing purpose of sex (from premeditated birth control to other/more fetished acts).

example in context - Huh-sexual can be better generally/initially understood through Sadhguru’s explanation of how we use life energies: "..sexuality is another expression of the same (life) energy, and one has to decide how much of their energy, in which direction (for what purpose) they want to send (or use) it..." (as well as the very great amount of body-memory left in oneself upon sexual interactions involving thought, emotion, and body (here)).

example in context - I think that though abnormal non-heterosexual relations and my watching porno must have some beneficial impacts (God knows), they are similar in the sense that whlie the actions don’t directly harm/cause violence to others (seemingly, at a grosser level), it is imo still toward an unsustainable, unnatural, spoiled, wasting/decaying, disappointing, and non-resonating society.

advanced example in context - It can be interesting to see such unnatural, huh-sexual behavior as rebalancing to (some) humans' (natures) very imbalancedly favored, dominating, & unsustainable relationship to the environment (as described in the meaning of "exergy" above: "sexual appetite/cravings would be less if survival (which is also relative to various needs of various people)  wasn’t as easy or in favor of us humans; wasn’t as supported by excess-energy consumption.  Another way to consider this is that the high degree of liveliness/attraction to sex-charged situations/manifestations, is likely at imbalanced/undeserved costs to others, biodiversity, uplifting or higher energies..")

example in context - Pope Francis discourages the ignorance associated with huh-sexual phenomena when he writes in LAUDATO SI’ (see paragraph 155) a good explanation of respecting and properly recognizing the natural sexual nature, learning to accept and care for our God-gifted bodies, etc.

ideallaw - as opposed to a written policy, rule, or law (with the correct intent/spirit) that is upheld in real world action, this is when a policy, rule, law is not validated upon observation

example in context - The WJP Rule of Law Index initiated a somewhat fanciful reflection of the use of "fair" for justice and skin color, but deeper still, the distinction between ideal and real, laws as ideas, the realness of many who really believe in laws (more than an idea), ideallaw to show the contrary, and a sort of karmic or all-awareness (like "God") to dynamically, or with interactive-reflexivity sort it all out accordingly.

K愛SH - Kommunication (And) Information Super Highway

example in context - Numerous ways to think of this K愛SH, internet, world-wide web, including as analogous to: the actual "wood wide web" in the soil fungal networks in nature; a wonderous, magnificent spider's web that higher intelligence(s) seems to have built (with bug-catching abilities included!); a fisherman's net (that has both intended and unintended catches/impacts); a watershed (and given water to be life) in the consecration of life energies.  The  K愛SH can also be seen as a sort of filtering tool to evolve our (collective) consciousness, with a sort of "survival of the fittest" of memes, knowledge, ultimately awareness

memore (expansive) - beyond the conventional definition of our internal memory of the past centered around an external-oriented, materialist perspective of reality, this is a centering of our self to the Supreme, deep within us, and so similarly seeing even present, yet external objects as the former perspective would see "the past" - things other than our true self.

example in context - By brilliantly relaying various types of memory - “evolutionary,” “genetic,” “atomic,” and maybe even “karmic” and “elemental” - Sadhguru wonderfully (like a wise magician) co-opts such nonsensical, outdated scientific pursuits like evolutionary biology, genetics, and atomic-level sciences, which is very much consistent with his reminder-preaching that "heaven" is not up there somewhere, but here and now, on planet earth..

example in context - Sadhguru explains that we carry the memory of how our ancestors looked not in our intellect, but on our bodies.  Is this an example of atomic, or genetic, or evolutionary memory?

Panca kosa  - (from Yoga for Arthritis by Dr. H R Nagendra) concept from Vedanta and spiritual lore of "5 layered" existence of all of us, and can contain in it the physical body (Annamaya Kosa) and the next three, subtle layers Pranamaya (vital airs), Manomaya (organs of mind), and Vigñanamaya (intellect and knowledge) Kosas.  The fifth is the Anandamaya (bliss) Kosa; the causal body from where all other layers take birth.

example in context - For a better theoretical framework/approach that is more inclusive than modern, merely gross-level science, the Taittireya Upanisat postulated and described in great detail the Panca Kosa concept, which was found to be the most holistic concept of human existence, in no way contradicting the modern systematic approach to the understanding of human body, and can be used as the foundation for yoga therapy.

example in context - Sadhguru's explanation of the non-physical, esoteric, subjectively experienced 5th layer (anandamaya kosa) can be better understood with the insightful, profound video, Sadhguru on Vasana karma and samskara

?uanswer - Question and answer combined, like in the form of a rhetorical question

example in context - Some of the great quanswers, in a beautiful couplet form were offered to me by the wise Sadhguru ji, from p. 203 of his recent book on karma: “The mind has its questions: But how exactly does this work? But what really does this mean? (like the science of consciousness?) The heart has its own questions, too: Why should this happen? Why is this so difficult to accept?”

scareful - combination of scared and careful

example in context - It's usually a good idea to do things carefully, but if you're doing it scarefully from a less desirable (even unnecessary) fear, then maybe you should first try to overcome that fear.

example in context - Scareful knowledge/communication from unwanted liability and fearful of suing can help motivate people to do right, especially in light of a very impersonalized, modern, Gesellschaft society where often people don't know one another. But like rajas is to satwa, the more people know each other, or the more one has super awareness of others (for example),

toxic mimic - something that takes the form but perverts the content of something good

example in context - Authoritative yet misguided government and greenwashing are a few good examples of a toxic mimic, and Derrick Jensen has described this umbrella term numerous times (for example).

example in context - Opponents of Sonoma County’s Measure J, such as Cal CAN, saying it would hurt “local” supply and “multi-generational family farms” etc. when actually (many? of) the operations are not really ecological or good for environment, and of course hellish for animals.  The operations that Measure J would have corrected, would have also removed the bad name "multi-generational family farms" would be associated with when they are likely to continue such misguided, vile operations, as well as improve the operations of locally-sourced agriculture products.

example in context - "Anytime you see a land management agency use the code words 'forest health,' 'resilience,' and 'fuels reduction' in the same sentence, you can translate this as "we're planning a commercial timber sale.""(from YT video)

(advanced) example in context - In the light of real, smart, positive, hopeful, blessed thinking & actions in the face of more dire, adverse, and unfortunate situations, hopium can be considered a toxic mimic, however from the (lower) perspective of simple awareness-raising amongst (frustrating Ignorance) to see the reality as it is, such a toxic mimic (seen from above) is needed at that level.

(advanced) example in context - The wickedly deceptive, often hard-to-catch use of "sustainable" in actually green-washed promotion of one's business, is a toxic mimic of the real meaning of the environmental type of sustainability that's being mimicked (the environmental sustainability that is environmentally healthy now, as well as sustainable for future generations).  Instead, the green-washed, toxic "sustainable" (rather cleverly, or at least effectively) usually does have some rectification of their environmentally destructive ways (but at a merely more symptomatic, PPS level, while continuing to support environmentally unsustainable activities, and including the broader misguided Economy by extension too).  This is well stated in (Jensen's book) Bright Green Lies, "Our way of life doesn’t need to be saved/"sustained".  The planet (is the one that really) needs to be (sustained and protected) from our way of life."  Hopefully enough people have the proper discrimination to know when the toxic mimics are being used so that it can be understood and not-supported appropriately.

Trump ‘25 specials: why good? & crisis-driven change theory

Top 5 reasons why Donald Trump ‘25-’29 was a godsend

1) strengthening the people (especially ones more weak/spoiled), as many learned to take more initiative rather than be overly dependent on others/government

2) we learned how important certain governmental components/institutions were (as well as how unimportant some were)

3) certain types of people (like Trump supporters) were given their chance to shine / show who they really are

4) it gave more clarity (and strangely-not-strangely, nuance) on not what the government is supposed to be, but what the government is (i.e. there is competing real values/money/lobbyists/etc. vs ideal/dreamer/social-change values/propaganda-like that may help/actualize a better reality, but not necessarily)

5) he actually wasn’t, the all-mighty god let the devil send him (like a "there is no good without evil" understanding, you know)

Green Greggor: You know I voted for Jill Stein, and us greens detracted a bit from Kamala Harris, but now that Trump is going to effectively destroy or weaken America beyond the point of return, real change is finally going to happen! like from the people!

Liberal Lou: Umm

Positive Pete: Yes!  People will stop relying on the government to change things, and be the change!

Scen* Sy: Positive thinking as usual PP, but there are matters that are epidemiological, above the people, that need people specially focused on, dedicated to working on such wickd problems..

Positive Pete: That’s for my God to tackle!

Liberal Lou: mmm, no, was for the Harris administration to handle

Green Greggor: psh, it’s mostly not real, needed change, and just what’s convenient, that people want to hear

Scen* Sy: I hoped not, but unless something short of a miracle happens, like God comes to earth, America is going to a bad/weak position, and probably most of the world too

Positive Pete: Let’s pray..

Green Greggor: and then act to make that not happen

Typical American: OK, youall do that and save our c’ntry!

Typical American 2: I’m with you, what can I do!

Typical American 3: Psh, Trump will get us out and stronger than ever.. uh, because, he.. has mojo, you don’t know!  Plus, he’s got the support, ‘n energies of all of us real Americans

Liberal Lou: Not the kind of America, American culture I want to be a part of

Typical American 13 (or Trump disguised as a typical American): Liberal Lou you a fool! You don't want to be part of a culture that you can live like a God, you can have all your food delivered to your door, all the glories of the internet streamed nonstop to your mind, which can't be happier, have machines and fossil fuels do all the work for you, or all 'a us, and for a lil' mo' scratch/savings, be able to travel just about anywhere you want on God's glor'us planet!! Huh!?!

Typical American: Speaking of God, is 'e here yet?

Scen* Sy: Um, let’s call Sadhguru [do interactive, consecrated chant, Brahmananda Swarupa]

Remindering Regis Randomly Returns: You have 1 lifeline left

(Meanwhile, in the cloudy heavens, like parents talking about their spoiled, misbehaved children, Shiva and Parvati discuss saving the earth world. Basically, Parvati tries persuading Shiva to take it easy on them (Americans and the like) and just show them, let them take the right path, while Shiva considers universal, karmic justice that needs to take place, for those souls, those people harmed by the misguided ones, but even for the misguided ones themselves to learn their lessons too, like tough love.  And different people have different different karmas, vasanas, samskaras... and of course dharmas... and God knows everything happens for the greater good, like how some people do not like being told what to do - like to be in control of how they spend their money more than a tax-collecting goverment would allow - but also like to do what's right)
