Is Human Consciousness Sufficient For The Threats?....December 27, 2019

Evolution's truth is that it's the capacity to adapt -not brute strength , ego intelligence or military power- which wins in the struggle toward new and better human epochs.

 So in our times higher levels of human consciousness , literally more persons becoming more fully who, or better what, they really are is what holds the shape of the future; whether it's toward extinction or a kind of global redemption and renewal.

 Humans have the strongest capacity for grand leaps in suffering consciousness (Increased consciousness, without exception, includes its accepted companion of inner suffering.) in our known world.

Such increased consciousness may be well formed already in some oppressed immigrants, unselfish activists or a quiet musician, farmer, nurse, scholar, cab driver, priest, billionaire etc.

 The question remaining for the common good is, ''Is there enough individual and collective accelerated suffering consciousness among humans to overcome our threatening darkness of science denial, rational materialism and personal/group narcissism?'

 Given the above dynamics, I believe it remains reasonable to trust and ‘hope against hope’ there indeed may be sufficient consciousness for a constructive global outcome.

 There is surely no guarantee. Otherwise we'd lose motivation to become more conscious persons(Ones whose conscious life has integrated new material from our common Unconscious. All have partially done this yet humans appear to have far to go to prevent self destruction.)

 I think this deep underlying reality has long been forecast. For example this ancient question attributed to Jesus: Paraphrasing and interpreting it so it's  more universally applicable, "When such an epochal time like ours has come again to the Earth, Will there be sufficient human consciousness?"

AMERICA IS SHOWING ITS TRUER SELF IN CONGRESS...Janurary 4, 2018


Regardless of party wins something extraordinarily American  happened in November 2018. It is hard to imagine it happening anywhere else in the world right now.
America has shown it's steadfastness to our most promising constitutional roots , of valuing and honoring a broad and diverse representation for a truly living culture.
This Congress is historic, installing more elected officials from women and minority religions and skin color ever. It is regrettable that to some this threatens a deep, but not reflecting America's promise, fear of the obvious and unstoppable 'browning' and increased ethnic diversity of our courageous experiment of a genuinely representative republic government. 

This 'browning' is an evolutionary sociologically  phenomenon, not subject to any political or religious maneuvering or fears. America, to fulfill it's better heart, is fully valuing- not just tolerating -all diverse differences just as many white individuals value his/her unexpected and precious darker skin grandchild.
And this expression of Americans in support of diversity comes in midst of a fearful political/religious effort, , of constant loud anti diversity voices including the President, Shawn Hannity, Laura Ingram and Rush Limbaugh.
America, in this new Congress, clearly challenges three decades of continuous verbiage of hostility toward women, humane immigration, homophobia and demonizing minority religious perspectives.
This demonstration of Americans standing up for all Americans and future Americans is a very bright star in a time that is dangerously dark and chaotic. The promise of a growing diversely represented America is our surest hope for a still living and evolving nation.
