mankind patchwork

sure, brothers and sisters: there will always be atheists and believers, rights and lefts, fascists and communists, materialists and mystics, jews and muslims and christs and pagans and satanists, vegans and meat eaters, nationalists and cosmopolitans, as well as man and woman, black and white, fat and slim... brothers and sisters. most probably all these relations will more or less stay in a balance. as well as the good and the evil does, although we don't know much about this.
what might be forthcoming is the way of getting along with each other. it will be carried by an profound understanding of the patchwork charakter of the world population. even those currents who intrinsically are convinced of pulling the whole rest of the mankind on their part will follow this wisdom, even neglecting it they will feel it. 
mother nature works in a similar mode: every biotope constellation reminds us of a carpet put together like a jigsaw puzzle of different shapes and sizes. as different hands and fingers, feet and toes ready to mesh with each other. this will be our task: to support the best circumstances for a real global network to emerge, interlocking itself in a perfect way.

dealing with scientific aberration...

the development of the globally dominant scientific aberration is as strong as it is. science has failed our world, science has failed our mother earth: an insight as simple as immeasurable sung by californian alternative metal band system of a down. however, the still valid paradigm - science as the only tool to deal with the world and to develop into the future - should not become a reason for mankind to leave the ancient wisdoms, just for to fit into any modern scientific point of view: rather try to expand the range of possibilities concerning the idea of perception, of what is reality.  
if the scientific system still has no sense and no place for father heaven and mother earth, for a strong and everywhere GOD, let us stay aware of ourselves having the larger perspective the higher amount of possibilities, an open field of options... let us turn proud of our devotion. let us stay responsible for  re-creating, re-discovering, feeding the highest almighty GOD every minute and every day.

laughter, music and the clouds in the sky

a descriptive theory of highly complicated phenomena has to be as intricate as the matter it is talking about…* an axiom postulated by german musicology scientist carl dahlhaus concerning music theory. feeling the modest truth of his thought leads us to a similar insight about our world and the mental techniques to get along with it: living in a crazy reality consisting of incomparable strange essentials demands a non-logic way of perception and holistic construction. please, my terrestrian brothers and sisters, don’t take this statement as emerging from the fatalistic everglade of a late and anachronic pessimist observing the last days of a drowning civilization - we are not talking about its cynic blossoms of nonsense and stupidity. it is the world itself - mother earth, father heaven and all the beings fed and beloved by this cosmic harmony relationship, caboclos and devas, plant spirits and atmospheric powers…
we can sing for them, pray with them, connecting our souls with their wordless thruth - but we can’t grip them, we will never be able to. the worst answer to this inability is to establish a so-called human logic. in analogy to the term of german philosopher theodor w. adorno „there is no right life in the wrong one“ let us sing: there is no logic in the nonlogic. the best reponse resulting from the lunatic now-and-here is the alogical power of religion - of the grooving jesus christ story. of lord krishna with his blue skin. of wakatanka on the turtle island, or the funny buddha with his round belly, eating the entire suffering of the world…
no better ways to find an answer which is valid inside this storm of smiling lightful insanity. smile, laughter, music and the clouds in the sky: elements of the language of profound comprehension. meaning nothing. no meaning.

responsibility...

„In a culture of relativism and the ephemeral, many preach the importance of “enjoying” the moment. They say that it is not worth making a life-long commitment, making a definitive decision, “for ever”, because we do not know what tomorrow will bring. I ask you, instead, to be revolutionaries, I ask you to swim against the tide; yes, I am asking you to rebel against this culture that sees everything as temporary and that ultimately believes you are incapable of responsibility, that believes you are incapable of true love…"

while Pope Francesco I. is talking about marriage these words seem to be rooted in an inversion of valuation concerning the relation between a petrified tradition and an ephemer sketch - in his vision the dynamic act we are free to choose is releasing the sketch and going for a decision. christly revolution... it reminds me of a remark by czech author Milan Kundera, probably from his novel immortality: we live our life as if it were a sketch for living - afterwards we become aware of the fact that it was already the life. could this statement be valid for more than just the love between two children of heaven and earth? for our position in our society? in our nation? for politics? for our connection to mother earth?

do you feel a healing radiance in this point of view?

and... responsibility (german: verantwortung) - could it mean giving response, answering to the call we receive from the universe? the world? God?

the mystery of the crown of thorns

ola, dear sister, dear brother of beloved jesus - can you feel inside yourself what is really heavy about christianity? what is the very special task for a nowaday christian? what makes it most unendurable - following the path of christianity?

let us try to accept. try to accept the fact that standing fleer and mockery seems to be an essential of this our way of growing light. our great heroic brother, teacher and healer was the target of derision. you may even say: people were not only laughing at him already during the very mystery of golgatha - this sarcasm was already a basic element of one of the most magnificent stories in mankind history. the crucifixion...

you bleeded. you were castigated. you were forced to carry that cross. you died on that cross. and in the centre of all: you wore the crown of thorns. the materialization of general taunt. 
"the thorn in the crown is the scorn of your own..."

thus we should become conscious of the mystery of the crown of thorns - if we are serious about what we believe, we have to incorporate this into our faith. it means to realize that the weakest appearance gives space to the strongest soul. it may even mean: to win.

sym- para- meta- dia- |||| -bolism

let us welcome four terms based on the quality of throwing (greek: ballein)
throwing: a move that in its naive, unreflected joy- and gameful manner might be significant for the mental shape in this day and age. for setting these four friends grammatically congruent, thus more comparable with each other, they are presented in their most substantival, petrified state, the noun, which we could call even the nominal systematization of themselves
we see them permutating: freezing down from meaning the living action - the ballein - via describing a state down to the thing, the concept, the -ism. although these terms are used in quite contradictive ways of understanding, we can draw some general outline about their relationship - just by a simple description of what they are talking about:

symbolism deals with the equivalence of a sign and its reference. word and reality are thrown sensibly together with each other.
the idea of parabolism is to unify energies - e.g. rays - flowing in parallel direction into one single focus. they are thrown sensibly the same way.
metabolism means the living exchange of energies, the transformation from one state of matter into another, either by splitting it up or by building it up, likely called destructive / constructive metabolism: throwing a certain something sensibly into another position or constellation.
diabolism is jumbling energies and matters confusingly. or even destructively. they will be thrown in a chaotic way - which finally means to withdraw.
