Yes to this the stream- and when I hear about how Gregory is in the dance of realtime community and who the women are in his life that carry wisdom because they are Earth- the Her of Her- then I will know Buffalo Calf Woman is present. Remind me please?
Although I cannot share the women in my direct circle, because I wish to protect their privacy, I can say that I have been deeply influenced by Robin Wall Kimmerer, Vanessa Machado de Oliveira, and Rowen White, just to name a few. Please read their works if you have the time. Powerful.
I loved 'Hospicing Modernity'. Thank you for bringing attention to it.
Hopefully we get this profound moment right.
Our lives can be a testament to right living; our actions and behaviour coming from a place of love and healing. And deep listening.
Being alive right now is such a responsibility. I hope we can embrace this moment and move in the direction of peace, fairness, kindness and restoration of what is true and good. And let the rest go.
Thank you for these heartfelt thoughts that are perfectly timed for me. So much to ponder about here as I actively heal my own wounded connection to our Earth. And as it happens, I'm currently halfway through "Hospicing Modernity."
If the earth is sick, the people will be sick too. We inter-are. I am glad you are reading such a remarkable book. It is an important one to be sure. Thanks for sharing, Ramona. All blessings.
So glad to see you here again and I want to confirm that you're living on the farm in Thailand. Is that full-time? Are you still open to have a group of students or others visit and learn? No one in mind at the moment, just curious but I keep thinking about that.
Thank you for these beautiful and insightful observations and insights. If more would appreciate and adopt a different life-style we would have a healthier, happier and peaceful world. Not in our lifetimes given the behaviors we're seeing. Thus, "Hospicing Modernity" a route to consider!
Martin Prechtel's books are my absolute favorite, truly touched my soul. Beautiful article. Appreciate the pointing out of the hero and superstition narratives, letting people off the hook versus doing the work - it's so true! So much goodness in this. Thank you. (enjoyed the voice over as well)
To be all Academic here - 'Hospicing Modernity' helped me so much along this anti-colonial transformative journey... I still have a hard time falling into this category of 'anti-colonialism', as a white guy... to boast : I know the Earth; "He, She - the great Energy" has integrated deeply my healing (chronic illness) and learning process of Human-ness. It is only in my return to the Capitalist Game of Economic Survival - I feel disheartened and unworthy to carry the Nature Values innate within each of us. 'The world-built blockades against Universal Will' in a way... yet to paraphrase from 'Ishmael' by Daniel Quinn - "If this be our Evolution, leading us to our own destruction... so be it... as it is the Universal Will (of our own Creation)" - participate in it what you will... at the least - we are aware of what the World Is. We can bear witness to our own story unfolding...
A writing where Vanessa Machado de Oliveira Andreotti (Bless Her!) crept into my unfolding awareness... paired with "Inflamed: Deep Medicine and the Anatomy of Injustice" by Raj Patel and Rupa Marya (On Substack : Deep Medicine : https://rupamarya.substack.com ) - a book that also completely altered my relations and brain chemistry I'm Sure!

We can do it. Together, we can do it. Alone, not likely. Learning to come together again, this is our times great work.
