"Attaching a children's story... The great realisation. It's rather special.

"Thanks Matt for reposting what I wrote. I want to recheck details, check latest developments and find words that help to accept all this.
Occasionally I do write along the lines... what an abomination a billionaire is using such needed resources for…"

"Thanks Matt. I have been noticing the group extinction rebellion and I feel very pleased to see its appearance.
I have read I think two of Monbiot's books and ensure I read his Guardian newspaper articles. A weakness that is commonly shared is more…"

"All I can do David is reach out to people, very much including yourself. I lack depth in history, geography, global potitics and especially psychology and Buddhism. What I bring to the table is a lifelong distrust of elite government, of…"
"I write to the correspondents in this discussion David, Matt and Kaspa. For such a vital discussion I am again rather gobsmacked that there are so few correspondents.
The political situation in Western countries is as you say Kaspa; still rather…"

"I cannot see any way we can avoid global social collapse driven by what is already ecological collapse. While denial is the social currency and likely will remain so until the fires fully overwhelm us the suffering of all beings will also grow…"
"It might well do so. To avoid doing so humans have to either stop expanding their domain (and even diminish it somewhat) or find somewhere other than planet earth to do so - neither of which seem terribly likely in the immediately foreseeable future."
"Thanks David. Apologies for the tone of my reply. This whole side you write of is too much of a raw nerve for me to keep it together well. I went to a rally regarding factory farming last night and was taken aback by the militancy with aggressive…"
"I am one with the thrust of this essay; including the dualist side. But I need to ask you a little more about some statements there. It is easy I agree to rail against the culture; but it is also necessary. Maybe this is contingent on how we view…"
"Hey Dayamay, nice to hear from you and yes how interesting 'negativity' has been. The most 'out there' of scientific theory I have come across is in the book 'beyond biocentrism'by Robert Lanza. He pioneered stem cell research. That there is only…"
"Thank you David. A good day in store visiting my latest grandchild and family. It seems Brett and Peter have gone too long down this terrible path to rebound, given the few options available now. Namo Amida Bu."
"There were extreme circumstances this morning as I wrote to the discussion on negativity. I answered a knock on the door and a neighbour was there extremely disturbed. He was high on ice and barely able to speak. He explained that he had just…"
"Very much appreciated thank you David. Having recently read Robert Lanza's Beyond Biocentrism and considering now reading Ervin Laszlo's the Intelligence of the Cosmos I am rather full of notions of there being only consciousness universally and…"
"I may have moments of not identifying with body and mind but there is a vast amount of identifying with body and mind in between. Movements like deep ecology draw us into primarily identifying with the natural elements of our world and even the…"
"I can too easily 'identify' with this process of negativity. There is another side to what is called negativity or pessimism or even hopelessness and I seem to excel here in regard to dwelling on the multitude of critical problems besetting this…"
"While science and Buddhism have had many places of accord this seems a very new place for science based enquiry to engage with consciousness; let alone the experience of death. I am quite elated to see this as it will open new pathways to those many…"
