The aim of life remains truth and beauty fused.

The aims of modern science are hardly pure or clear. No religion can redeem science from its basic fallibility. No religion can save science from subjection to financial domination. In pure form, science is simply a parsing of observable reality. Science adopts a logic based on hypothesis. Hypotheses range from the flawed to the sublime. The way to truth is filled with thorns and snares. We are fallible. We live within continuity. We stray and we move on. We need a spirituality based on universal values whose effect is to reduce harm. We need a science immune from subjection to lesser values. We need tolerance, helpfulness, democracy and a rejection of idolatry in all forms. Both science and religion are subject to the regulation of imperishable universal values. The aim of life remains truth and beauty fused.

What's Coming April 4 & Beyond? A Global Democratic Revolution

Millions around the world will start to do something radical and new April 4

Radical means getting to the root and for us our roots are within us and within the community we long for

New means something that was not there before, something that can fire your imagination

We are at THE change point in our human evolution. both radical and new

We  can only get the community we want by altering the way each of us thinks

What is new is that we see change is up to us and that we alone can build the communities we want





We affirm that we are one with all and respect the rights of all

We affirm that we will not accept a world that accepts violence at any level

We will likewise not accept a world which does not give each person a fair opportunity
  
Our global democratic revolution will  reduce violence and extend opportunity

We will not accept easy slogans that are meant to mobilize by dividing

We will act individually and in groups to extend tolerance, helpfulness and democracy

We will practice universal respect for the rights of every person

We will not waste time in fruitless opposition, we will demonstrate what we affirm

We affirm a global democratic revolution to bring the world to a new stage

We affirm that we are all nomads of the universe - explorers of what it means to be human

We affirm our willingness to work alone and in concert to bring about a global democratic revolution

Sudden Death


Losing a friend 
changes lives 
all around 
in ways that 
make dying 
exert more power 
than we might 
wish to admit 
It can mean 
moves that 
change the 
lives of all 
concerned 
It can jostle 
the lay 
of relationships 
so 
permutations 
unseen 
unanticipated 
emerge 


Dying is 
so absolute 
and often 
so sudden 
that it seems 
to possess an 
unpredictable 
power 
Just know 
it may 
change 
everything 
and ask yourself 
if you 
can change 
in turn
