"Further; you seem to hold some weird mixture of New Age Pantheism and are afraid or unable to defend it."
I am not afraid, while your desperate attempts to grasp a label is no more than inappropriate groping in the dark at best.
The world is mostly made up of rock and elements that are non-living, yet of some value to us anyway.
The wind blows and drags along with it clouds, which may decide to rain down upon us. When they do, life springs and thrives in what would otherwise be lifeless regions. So the apparent barren dirt is not a contrast to life, it is in actually one with growth and renewal and abundance. The rain leaves a rainbow and the clouds provide beauty on the horizon as the sun sets for all to enjoy. Because we are all one under the sun.
Bringing to unity seeming disparity is liberating in its power to accomplish goodness.
Division brings the power do separate and destroy by fear and loathing. Fear can be an awesome and driving force:
> Fear of displeasure or disapproval by powerful persons, groups, or authorities. > Fear of harm from bullies, heinous and brutal criminals, terrorists, and despots. > Fear of loss, humiliation, or of becoming desolate.
Struggle against the insidious petty forces of brutes, bullies, and tyrants that would enslave you in fear. Exercise your free will ... be free. |
