Sean is articulating something that has been on my mind all day since listening to a talk by Dr.Gabor Mate. This talk by Gabor Mate, about When the body says no is really good, and i share it here, and as a physician what he has to say is quite profound and radical, and still there is a lack of naming what the primary forces are which contribute to stress, to alienation, to a lack of healthy cultural context for parenting ect. Gabor does name these things in a way, and i hear through a lot of what he is saying that there is a critique of civilization, of this culture, but he doesnt straight up come out and say that what is making us sick is the illness that is this civilized industrial capitalist patriarchal culture, this death culture, that surrounds us and is deeply embedded into our DNA, Embedded into our DNA through the trauma of our ancestors, which has now been scientifically proven through epigenetics. And i also think that deeper then the unresolved traumas we carry from this life, as well as the long lines of our civilized ancestors, are the spirits of those who came before, before we were enslaved, before we lost our vital connection to the earth and spirit, who are watching over us now, who are beckoning us to join them towards, igniting a fire in our hearts to re-connect, to find our way out of this nightmare, to return to the village where we are held, nurtured, and apart of the web of relations. So yeah, healing in this time is a big thing to think and talk about, let alone do. Thanks for your thoughts Sean. And Gabor. Healing, fighting, growing, connecting, hurting, healing, fighting....... May we continue to learn and evolve from this process. May we find ways to create deeper understandings and find our freedom from the suffering of our conditioned states. https://youtube/watch?v=c6IL8WVyMMs
