THY KINGDOM COME[S] [AS] THY WILL [IS] DONE....

When Hell on earth is complete within the next few years, our Father / Mother will be shaking their head at us -

"We warned you. We did everything possible to warn you. We told you where the Path to Heaven on Earth was. You were determined not to listen. Oh what a waste:

1. "Our Father in Heaven."
2. "Hallowed be your name."
3. "Your Kingdom come[s]." (variation: "Thy Kingom [IS FUNDED] as thy will is done...")
4. "[As] Your will [is] done on earth as it is in Heaven.
5. "Give us [all] this day our daily bread."
6. "Forgive us our [errors]," 7. "As we forgive [the errors of others.]
8. "Lead us [all] not into temptation," 9. "But deliver us [all] from evil.

"You dicided instead that patholocial self-delusion was the way you wanted to live. So you decided to live a culture of "make believe:"
A. Jesus and the Appostles were only speaking in metaphore.
B. The above are not literal and specific instructions EXACTLY like the instruction to a child - "Honny, do not grab that hot skillet by the handle! Do not put your hand on that burner." What we told you so clearly were the natural consequences of Selfishness / Death and Otherishness / Life based on your psychology, your physiology, and the dynamics of the physical universe.
C. Everyone is NOT your brother or sister. The 13 children that starved to death within the last minute were not really, Truly, exactly YOUR IMMEDIATE CHILDREN; YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY.
D. Capitalism, not God and "Love your neighbor as yourself" would be the "god" in which you would place your trust.
E. Christianity is a "social club with a thin veneer of religiosity" which you join for a few bucks and that uses Jesus to comfort and amuse you; Not the church of Jesus - a radically, totally universal-family culture to replace all empires like Jesus and the Appostles died to show you.
F. Etc....

YOU BLASPHAMOUSLY SELF-PROCLAIMED "CHRISTIANS" OF THE YEAR 2007 DELIBERATELY AND WILLFULLY REJECTED OUR SON JESUS, YOUR BROTHER WHO SUFFERED AND DIED TO SAVE YOU. We will always love you, but we accept your decision that you are no longer our children. Your Hell is now your responsibility, not ours.

Your loving Father and Mother, God"

Darfur Hunger Strike Day 22: Final Farewell

My dear brothers and sisters around the world. As noted below I've been away from the 24 h/day Sudan Embassy Darfur Hunger strike for more than a day now to deal with a wrongful arrest that seems to be dropped. This has given me access to computer that I'll not have on the sidewalk of the Embassy. I expect this is my final goodbye to you as I'll spend what is left of my body trying to thaw el-Bashir's heart on his Embassy sidewalk.

You still don't see it. Saving Darfur is about saving your world. Darfur is a mortal wound on the humanity of your Soul, and the Soul of your global brothers and sisters. Leaving it un-Rescued and un-Restored is bleeding away from you whatever bit of Heart / Humanity / Sanity you've had left in this cesspool / toxic dump of a selfish world.

Your Heart will not survive much more of this. You need to get off of your death-bed now. Draw on your Heart. Through exercise it will regain strength - quickly.

Otherwise, you have once and for all lost planet earth to the end times. You will give Living Hell to your children.

May God help you.

Your loving brother forever, Start Loving

MASS SHIFT OF AN INNATE PARADIGM IN OUR PSYCHE IS OUR ONLY HOPE FOR HUMAN KIND

Have you seen this at Right? What do you see?

When one first sees this picture they quickly see EITHER an old woman or a young girl.

Without prompting they may never, never, never see the picture any other way!!!!!!!!!

With help, and sometimes a tremendous amount of mental work, they will see what they did not see the first time.

Switching back and forth takes a tremendous amount of time for the brain.

This site is about the central, INNATE, organic, God given, Nature Given, NEUROLOGICALLY ROOTED paradigm:
A. Humanity is my "FAMILY" brothers / friend / means of survival / my "body" OR
B. Humanity is my competitor / enemy / rival / the other / NOT-family.
Virtually none of us realize this central paradigm within us, BUT WE LIVE OUT OUR PERSONAL AND SOCIETAL LIVES ENTIRELY ACCORDING TO THIS UNCONSCIOUS CHOICE!

Most of us unconsciously live both:
* "Friends" / "Family" within the household. We'll call this "Otherishness," "Brotherliness," "Love...."
* "Other" / "Competitor" outside of the household / immediate biological unit. We'll call this "Competitor," "Foreigner," "Potential Enemy," "Stranger...."
Just as how we see the picture can be our choice if we take the time to learn, so it is with how we see the other - "family" or "enemy." The fate of planet earth depends on learning to choose "family," doing so Religiously, and thereby teaching and saving the world.

This is the purpose of this site - to teach you of this central paradigm of life and to provide basic training in living accordingly.


Alfred Adler, psychologist (contemporary of the pathologically sick Freud) and Jesus are our guides on this site. Adler considered his work to be a scientific development of Jesus central teachings. "If you love me you will do greater works than these," Jesus. Einstein might have said the same to his disciples.

Due to our ignorance of this paradigm we have developed a culture that stupidly and wrongly develops us to see ENEMY 99.99999% of the time. This is the entirety of EVIL. It is literally destroying the planet.

Let's get on with becoming the master of this paradigm - masters of Brotherly Love. Currently the paradigm is the slave master of us.

I pray that we are in time. I fear we are not.

VIOLENCE CAN ONLY MOVE OR MAGNIFY VIOLENCE. START LOVING.

The opposite of Violence is Sacrificial Loving (by whatever name)
Def: Loving - Brotherly, Loving, Otherish, as-you-would-have-them do behavior
Def: Violence - "Enemy," Non-Brotherly, Selfish, Not-as-you-would-have-them-do behavior

There is changing the heart of the other, the group... the world through brotherly / sisterly Love; OR there is Hell / Doomsday. People have been telling you this for 60 years - ever since the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

I wonder if God is not giving us two fianal signs for us to see. Iraq and Darfur. In the case of Iraq, the US Military Industrial complex, more terrible in its ability to inflict violence than anything Satan could imagine - is powerless to do other than create an increase in violence. In the case of Darfur the shamefully self-named "Darfur activists" (masturbationists actually with few exceptions) are powerless to mobilize the internatinal community with the benign violence of money and politics.

We sacrifice our bodies through being heroic brothers and sisters in the attempt to wake up a clinically heart-dead other ... or the world, or Have a Nice Doomsday. As God is my witness.

WHAT IS LIFE PARENTS? PULSE OR HEART?

How you decide this question will determine whether you lead your children to a Life of Flesh, or Brotherhood.

If you do not explicitly choose you will be carried by the flow of western culture to the answer Pulse / Flesh. And in protecting and "saving" their life you will kill your children, feeding them to Mammon - Selfishness - Death.

If you choose the answer - Life is Heart - you may, you will put their bodies at risk but you will give them Life, Vitality, 6 billion brothers and sisters, Joy, Love, Courage, IMMORTALITY (no, this does NOT require there to actually be an afterlife)....

Think Rachel Corrie.

THE PLANET-KILLING SINS: SEX AND "IMMEDIATE FAMILY"

By far these are the engines of selfishness - the life of the beast.

The New Testament could not be more explicit regarding this - do not practice recreational sex either mentally or physically. Sex is not provided for our entertainment. Sex is a gift of procreation. Go beyond that? Pure, utter, destrucitive, murderous, infections, cancerous sin - error.

Our economy is driven by sex. Men spend their entire lives exploiting others for money, power and prestige so as to maximize getting sex. Women spend their whole lives maximizing what material comforts and assets they can extract for giving sex. John's and Whores is what the western adult aspires to their entire lives. This is what we sacrifice our chilren to Meanwhile 13 children per minute starve to death; and women tonignt are having their breasts cut of by the Janjaweed because we are too preocupied to stop the Genocide.... [none of you can outdo my sins on this one I'll bet. God forgive me.]

"Immediate family." Is there anythng, ANYTHING that was more central to Jesus suffering and death than his determination to Live as brother to us all? Did he not die exactly to show us that there is to be zero, ZERO double standard? THERE IS NO ROOM FOR INTERPRETATION ON THIS. "Who is my mother...?" "Love your enemy as yourself." "Love your neighbor as yourself." "Good Samaritan." "Good Shepherd lays down his life for his sheep...." "No man has greater love than to lay down his life for his brother." ONE FAMILY. ONE FATHER [and you are not it], NO DOUBLE STANDARDS. ALL PEOPLE ARE YOUR BROTHER OR SISTER. ALL CHILDREN ARE YOUR CHILDREN. GET ON WITH IT.

Think Gandhi, King, Teresa, Corrie, Beko, Assisi, Jesus, God-Father, good soldiers....

THIS SITE, NO CREDIT TO ME, IS THE CODE FOR HEAVEN ON EARTH.

Will we learn it, deploy it, give our lives for it in time. That is the question, for you, and for me.

Before God I believe this is Divinely Inspired code - like, yet more important than the 10 commandments.

If we do not master, deploy and implement with our lives we will not be forgiven. Our punnishment, our natural consequence will be Living Hell on Earth for us all; irreversable; inescapable.

Your choice.

Your loving brother forever, Start Loving

OK. IF THIS SITE IS CORRECT, WE'VE BEEN SO WRONG HOW ?!?!?!?!?

Wow. I'm really, really glad to have faced this question today. I can't answer it at a detail level now but I see the heart of the answer.

At the heart of our tragic errors regarding Jesus is the mistaken, wishful belief that he was creating a club, or some ritual by which to be saved.

In the way you can join a country club, the Elks, or Chamber of Commerce, or a local Church:
Can you join the neurosurgeons?
Can you join the corporate lawyers?
Can you join the F14 pilots?
Can you join the Everest assent team?
Can you join the Navy Seals?
Can you join the Olympic Gold Medalists?
Can you join the Harvard Graduates?
Can you join the Nobel Peace Prize Winners?
Can you join the Christians?

You can only become these things. It takes:
* Heroic effort
* Enormous discipline
* Enormous sacrifice
* Enormous training
* Enormous will
* Enormous self development
* Enormous risk

Jesus was not playing. Jesus saw the one and only way to lead us from world-as-hell to Heaven on Earth - ALL OUT NONVIOLENT, GIVE YOUR LIFE FOR BATTLE TO MELT THE ICE OF SELFISHNESS SMOTHERING THE HUMAN HEART. He saw this as the prize worth dying for, the Prize that many would have to die for. Why? Partly because the pursuit itself is "Heaven on Earth;" Partly because Hell is no place you can tolerate for your family - all of us, God's children. Jesus saw that the all out, give-your-entire-life-for-it war of Sacrificial Love for Heaven on Earth is Life Itself, that everything else is death.

We want to think that Christianity is like the Health Club - pay your fee and you are "Saved."

God forgive the "Church." Jesus and the apostles warned us over, and over and over about this. God forgive us. May it not be too late for us, the world, our children.

If you are destined to find the cure for cancer but...

... your spouse does not want the lifestyle associated with that, what do you do?

I Testify: Jesus was true in promising Hell in this life

Having just read the New Testament letters for the first time in many years (New American Bible, St. Joseph's Edition!) I offer my life as Testimony to the absolute Truth of the Spiritual / Psychological reality it explicitly teaches. [Perfection in all words? Come on, these were men writing as and two people of 2000 years ago. Imagine the limitations! Let's grow up.]

Yes, HELL IN THIS LIFE IS A CERTAINTY FOR:
* Living in the Suburbs
* Expensive educations
* Practicing capitalism
* Sex for power or recreation at any time
* Holding "Church" in other than a basement or warehouse
* Restaurants
* Daily casual time
* Time wasting
* Pandering, catering to the wealthy
* Tempting anyone toward anything other than going to the Cross for The Least Of These.
* Skiing and other $ and time intensive sports
* etc.
* etc.

All of this is sin punished by Hell in this world of unimaginable suffering by the masses. There is not a second, $, neuron, or muscle fiber to waste. The world is one big Elementary School and the roof just collapsed. And you are going to worry about your career, dinner tonight, appearance, preoccupation with "your" child/husband/wife, flowers, garden, house, safety....???????????

These (above and their like) are guaranteed Hell - separation from: God, Our Father, Eternity, your Body, Your Soul, Solidarity, Service... LIFE.

Wow. The clarity I found regarding this in the New Testament is so extraordinary. God forgive me for not seeing it before. Timothy 1 and James are breathtaking.

I Testify with my life, for all who I Love, for all Humanity that with trivial exceptions these writings are the Truth, as Einsteins writings are the Truth.

Please do not lead a life (death) of sin as I have. It is Hell. Please LIVE. It is Heaven on Earth.

Read the New Testament in this version of the Bible and BELIEVE.

--------------------------------

Exceptions:
* Dramatically discount emphasis on getting to heaven; HEAVEN AFTER DEATH IS NOT WHAT JESUS WAS CONCERNED ABOUT.
* Subservience of women to men: RUBBISH.
* Continuity with the Old Testament: RUBBISH. Maybe this was a constructive emphasis 2000 years ago in attempts to bring along some of the Jews into Christianity. If it was of use, it is no longer. Forget the Old Testament. Making it through the next 20 years alive beginning now depends on Jesus' prime directives: Love God and Love Your Neighbor. Get Distracted and you and we die.
* A few others but I'm out of time. Anything that is not about waging a Navy Seal calibre War of Brotherly Love to bring about Brotherly Love FOR THE JOY/LIFE/LOVE/PEACE OF IT - IGNORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jesus leads us exactly, precisely and solely to the Cross

I never saw this before. Why? Because Christians are not Christan. The are all evidence to the contrary. James for example makes this unmistakable.

But in the time now that I've had to contemplate, and to read in detail the Gospel there is no other conclusion. Jesus saw a world exactly like today's world, except ours is much worse. He saw a world totally corrupt with selfishness. He saw a world clinically "mad," out if its mind, with it's humanity mutilated, where are Hearts are starved of virtually all energy that has been robbed by mind and Flesh.

The only hope was to raise an army religious in their Love for their mad brothers to the point that they would willingly get in the way of the murderous selfishness until the stench of their blood, and the stack of their bodies was so high that the all but dead Hearts of the mad masses could stand it no more. That the perpetrators could not stand the site of themselves, and would be literally thus "Saved" from their madness.

This is exactly what Salvation, what Saving is and how it happens. There is much less carnage than in a war of hate where the intent is to kill the other. The results are much more permanent and constructive. But it will take many, many lives. Jesus knew this. Most or all of the apostolic letters were explicit in this.

How did I never see it?

How can the Church (The Anti-Christ) do such a brilliant job of deceiving us?

Jesus led us, every single one of us, every single one of us to the Cross, just as harsh, just as torturous, just as murderous, until "Thy Kingdom Come," and even then....

Imagine, saving the world. It is not a dream to me any more. It is clear as day. It can be done. Jesus showed us how. Adler gave us the theoretical underpinnings in more current concepts. Others throughout this site, including my contributions once and for all enable us to see how, to get on with strategy, campaigns, recruitment, execution....

Can we find enough love left within our selves for "the least of these?"

Can we find enough love left within ourselves even for our own biological kin? These are the questions.

These are the end times. I can't explain it but I know it to be true. If, IF you will take the time to listen to your Heart I believe it will tell you the same thing.

Imagine, being the ones that finally brought Heaven on Earth.

Oh yes, much sobbing too

I frequently sob for my Darfur family, that they have been abandoned and suffered such atrocities for so long.

I frequently sob for the death of humanity so evident in my western onlooker brothers and sisters.

I frequently sob that I can't seem to stop it.

I frequently sob that I think Armageddon is hear for much of the world and descending quickly on the rest.

From My SOUL, in SOLIDARITY, SERVING

Take away Selfishness and Western Culture Vanishes

If you take away all selfishness from the US population what goes away? (more important than my quick jottings below would be YOUR quick jottings)

White House
Starbucks
Malls
Elite Colleges
Capitalism
Skiing
Internet Porn
Magic card games
All but extremely modest exercise clubs
Revealing clothing
Almost all popular music
Almost all restaurants
Lockheed Martin
Video Games
Most movies
Most TV
All but the most modest motels
All but the most modest vacation spots
Etc, etc...................................

Essentially our entire culture would vanish. This was a huge revelation for me. Utterly profound.

Selfishness makes the U.S. go round. Period.

The other book that Killed Gandhi the Barrister, Birthed Gandhi Social Warrior

"Unto this Last" by John Rustin first published in 1860. These are actually a series of three essays that Gandhi read. Along with Tolstoy's "Kingdom of God is Within You," transformed and created the Gandhi that for a brief time, transformed the world. The central idea of "Unto This Last?" ["Unto the Least of These"] Atleast in Ruskin's day he viewed that there were 5 major segments of society, four of which shared a vital characteristic, the fifth of which did not, should and by not sharing it mortallly threatened the very wellbeing of society: Doctors, Lawyers, Soldiers and Ministers: WOULD PREDICTABLY LAY DOWN THEIR LIVES FOR THOSE THEY SERVE. The Merchant sector: WOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEIR CLIENTS, AND NEVER LAY DOWN THEIR LIVES FOR THEM. Please think about the implications of this. Certainly Jesus calls for all of us to lay down our lives, TO LAY DOWN OUR LIVES for "The least of these our brothers." For the Merchant class, the majority of us in the western world such an ideas is laughable! And we wonder why the world is turning into a hell.

THIS IS HEAVEN ON EARTH. You cannot imagine the Joy and Life

I Testify, my life, my entire life, my Life of recent is absolute proof of the Truth of the Divinity (Absolute Correctness) of Jesus teachings and almost all of the New Testament):

I absolutely can't imagine that I will live past the next 20-40 days. Bashir's heart will not soften that fast, and after 140 days of hunger strike and restricted calorie fast since May 06 my body isn't going to last much longer I think.

I have never, never been so happy - moment to moment, day after day.

My body has rarely been so sick and tortured. It took me three hours the other night, in front of the Sudan Embassy, to get into my sleeping bag and seat, all assembled, everything in order. I'd do a little then pass out from the exhaustion and nausea. Do a little more... etc. Repeat. Three hours. It was wild!

My body is absolutely tortured and rebelling from having to be upright, sitting 24 hours per day. My hip joints scream, my back screams, my toes scream, my side screams. No, not each segment all the time. They do a great job of tag teaming. Last night was the worst - about 2-3 hours sleep.

I am not the most Joyful, most Alive in my life because of this suffering, but despite it.

I have never been so aligned with Life, in the service of Life.

You may know by now that I try very hard to hold myself accountable to the likes of King, Gandhi, Jesus, Our Father, Mandella, Steve Beko, Dellinger...and you, my inner family. I spend as much as hours every day imagining what they want me to do at this time in the face of the Darfur Genocide. I'm getting hugs from them for what I am doing! Our Father and Jesus have kissed me! Twice! Hmmmm. Steve Beko? He smiles but says, keep on young man. You've got quite a ways to go to get hugs from me.

"From my Soul, in Solidarity, Serving." I bring this all important model to mind, to heart and the pain and suffering virtually vanish, and stay banished from my consciousness. I become the shattered mother with her child in her arms focusing all of her attention on her, on our Darfur brothers and sisters.

Obviously people, obviously we need to give our lives to stop the Darfur Genocide. The very Humanity of the Planet is at stake. It is not my responsibility that currently 1000's of us don't see this. I do see this need of us, and I have the privilege to go and to die on this Cross of Human Selfishness for my Darfur Family, for my global family. For you.

Well, this is exactly where Jesus was. This is exactly were Jesus tried to lead me, and you. There is no greater love than to lay down your life for your brother. You must lose your life to win your life.

It is sheer madness, sheer clinical loss of humanity on a global scale that 1000's of us are not doing this.

What could one soldier, alone, do in Iraq? More than zero, and less than the 10's of thousands we have there.

You cannot imagine the Joy. You cannot imagine the experience of participating in the service of Life, of Darfur, of Humanity.

My regrets of any consequence? That I will not survive to do the same hunger strike to the death for Chester, PA. That I will not through my efforts stop the Genocide. That I will not by myself save humanity which is locked on a course for Armageddon of the spirit and of the body as well. That I haven't Saved you. That I can't save our 13 children starving per minute, Haiti, Jamaica, Palestine, Congo, S. Africa Aids orphans, Katrina victims, Camden victims....

Small regrets. I'll miss you, terribly. I'll miss Gerry's hot spaghetti. I do already.

Oh that I had 100o's of lives to give.

Essential Reading

1. The Gospel in Brief (Tolstoy, Translated by Isabel Hapgood); Created Gandhi, may have Created Dr. King. Online Translation (not as good as the paper version)

1. The Kingdom of God is Within You (Tolstoy); LAST 2 CHAP. 1ST. Online. What I Believe, Leo Tolstoy.

2. Individual Psychology of Alfred Adler; a non-mystical, psychological, mainstream way of seeing what Jesus died to show us - evil is clinically madness - selfishness. To be selfish is clinically to be out of your mind. Probably the most difficult read of my life. Skip it unless you want to save the world. Online

3. Four Gospels and the Appostolic Letters- New American Bible, St. Joseph Version; to my shock I find not only the Gospels but the letters enormously helpful in moving from Flesh/Death to Spirit/Life within myself. Now Jesus said in Johh, "If you love me you will do greater things than these." Jesus either didn't know the psychology of what he was on to, or he figured out that those he was preaching to couldn't understand it 2000 years ago. Either way, you've got to see that these folks were using mysitcism where today it doesn't belong. Be careful, I wish I had more time to explain, but now I don't. Use your heads. And, they were human! The got the woman thing, subservience, all wrong except for the extreme modesty part which is absolutely correct. Too frequently they justify going to the cross for an afterlife. No! Going to the cross to save your brothers and sisters IS heaven on earth, and it is clear that those writing and being persecuted experienced it that way. To my shock I found it enormously in sych with the contents of this site. Profoundly so. James and 2nd ? were utterly awesome.

4. The People's History of the United States (Zinn); If you read this book you will have the same Truth experience that Neo had when he took the pill in The Matrix. You cannot be ALIVE in the US culture without reading this book. You will stay in The Matrix - screwed in, all nice and save, sound, and Dead.

5. Voices of a People's History of the United States (Zinn)

6. From Yale to Jail & Revolutionary Nonviolence (Dellenger); total of 3 years in prison for his nonviolent war for civil rights, stopping the Vietnam War, and other causes. See this site: David Dellinger Quotations

7. Peace and Nonviolence (Guinan); well this is an indespensible gem of a book. A collection of writings unlike anything I've seen before on the great nonviolent warriors of our time. Inexplicably brillient and useful collection if you want to Save the world. Online excerpts.

8. Courage & Compassion (Fogelman); Heroes of the holocaust. What to see what going to the Cross looks like? Online excerpts. Online excerpts.

9. The Cost of Descipleship (Bonhoeffer); This man walked the walk - to the Cross, with Life - Joy and Love. Online

10. All Men are Brothers (Gandhi); Online

BE EXTREMELY CARFUL OF:

Walter Wink. Through a tragic blindness he perverts Jesus' teachings of "Saving" the Heart of the other into slick power moves. Tragically evil.

Gene Sharpe: His Politics of Nonviolent Action. He is a mechanic! He shows a profound lack of grasp of the Spiritual battle. STAY AWAY!

ANYONE AND ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT HAVE A HEROIC TRACKRECORD. Spirit is everything - including Wisdom and Insight! If they do not have a Heart for Heroism, they don't have a Heart / Spirit that knows nonviolent revolution. Learn from Heroes or figure it out yourself. BE CAREFUL.

OTHER GREAT STUFF: [sorry about the formatting. no time to fix it now.]
for now a cleaner version of what follows is at the Chester PA site: Suggested Readings


TITLE
AUTHOR
RELEVANCE
What Life Could Mean to You
Alfred Adler
Considered by some the comprehensive foreseer and pioneer of today's emerging, theoretical, directions in psychology.
Their are only 2 possible overarching goals and humans organize their entire lives around one OR the other: 1) Survival, 2) Happiness (which is achieved only by bettering the future of mankind). It is only the latter, that is "healthy".
This book may be the single most illuminating, important guide book to "health" in living ever written. (Jay's opinion). Read it, and be alive!
The Evolving Self
Flow
Findiing Flow
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
University of Chicago Cognitive Psychology Dept. Foremost authority on "happiness" or "optimal experience".
If you exhaustively study all people world wide you will find that "optimal experience" (joy, bliss) comes from: 1) absorption in a high skill; 2) high challenge; 3) high human MEANING pursuit.
Said differently: the human organism is rewarded with the feeling of joy when he/she is totally immersed in the task of bettering mankind... that is, working against the relentless force of entropy, that works against the success of the "species"; that is, being "loving".
How can I help?
Ram Dass
Stamford University, psychology
Exraodinary insights on how the psychology of the helper, if understood, can enable helpers to avoid burnout, and progress rapidly along a path toward limitless bounty of compassion, joy, peace and love for themselves, the helpers.
The Words of Gandhi
All Men are Brothers
Mahatma Gandhi (by Richard Attenboro)
'The golden rule... is resolutely to refuse to have what millions cannot.'
'Full effort is full success.'
'Be the change you want to see'
'I will admit but one tyrant in my life... the still, small voice within'
Lost Boys
Dr. James Garbarino
Cornell University: World recognized expert on adolescent male break down and violence.
If you take any 100 people like me and you and keep them in "war conditions", ALL of us will BREAK DOWN emotionally within 2 months! Same for ANY AND ALL minority males born and raised in an environment like Chester, studies conclusively show.
"It's the "diet" (environment) stupid" [play on President Clinton's saying]
Autobiography of Dr. King
Clayborne Carson (using the archived words of Dr. King)
'Spirit, not material things, ultimately shapes history'
'Human rights (life, liberty, pursuit of happiness) are won ONLY at an enormous price.'
'Rights are ALWAYS won by the oppressed. [Jay - So, what is to become of the Children of Chester? Herein lies the profound challenge ahead to liberate the Youth of Chester from oppression.]
'The great obstacle is the "moderate" '
'I am disturbed to find that all too often the Church is the 'opiate of the people... a social club with the thin veneer of religiosity."
'Church is a place where people go out from. Let us go out!'
'Human health for any individual can be ascertained by measuring three axis: 1) healthy love for self; 2) love for humanity; 3) love for God (and all of his creation).'
"Love is gladly giving one's life for the wellbeing of another'
'Peace is not the absence of injustice, but the presence of justice.'
'Freedom is achieved at the point that you are not afraid to die.'
'A man is fit to live when he knows what he will gladly give his life for.'
'The ends are preexistant in the means"
Long Walk to Freedom
Nelson Mandella
Leader of the South African freedom struggle.
It is nurture, not nature that shapes the individual.
The battle is for the heart and the mind. The prize is worth any price that is required of the warrior.
The pursuit of Happiness
David Myers
Hope College
Extensive meta surveny of the research on happiness by this author of the world's most widely used basic psychology text.
What No School Can Do
NY Times
'Researchers and educators have known for decades that it is the environment of the child before they enter school, and when school in not in session that determines success in school... and life.
'The amount of social and intellectual capital a child brings to school, more than the school itself, determines the outcomes.
'As with any capital, social and intellectual capital can be given only by one who 'received' them in the first place.'
"It's the "diet" (environment) stupid" [play on President Clinton's saying]
Vouchers for summer school could help halt the learning slide.
NY Times
"A child living in an inner city is in school for only so many hours. It's the rest of the day -- as well as the rest of the neighborhood -- that's the big influence, and the problem."
"It's the "diet" (environment) stupid" [play on President Clinton's saying]
Bible
St. Paul
'Owe no man anything, except to love one another.'
The supreme value is Charity... an awareness of God in oneself and in the other. [Clearly our children are starving to death in Chester due to extreme poverty of charity in the Delaware Valley. What other explanation? This is to be expected. The way we amass personal, material wealth is by allowing our charity to atrophy. This is our supreme, enabling technology of the west. No? - Jay]
Spirit is everything... material things are nothing.
Adults know what kids need; we just don't do it
Search-Institute.org
We better get on with "feeding" our Chester children what every child needs.
"It's the "diet" (environment) stupid"
Identity and the Life Cycle
Erik Erikson
Harvard Psychiatrist. Author of the predominant theory of human psychological development.
"Healthy" human development takes place through 7-8 stages.
The 6th stage is reached by "healthy", 'species normal' [vs culturally normal - Jay's note] people in their early 20's and lived until the onset of old age.
The 6th stage is "Generativity"... being consumed, gladly, with the task of advancing the wellbeing of humanity through insuring the success of the next generation.
Man's Search for Meaning
Victor Frankle
Among the most widely translated and published books in the world. This psychologist jew survived the holocaust and in the process discovered that "meaning" in life may be the most important determinant of mental health and wellbeing.
The Meaning and Measurement of Moral Development

Lawrence Kohlberg

Also: See basic Psychology texts and research articles.
'Species normal" adult moral development is BEYOND, social reference, or observance of law.
Healthy moral development is Stage 5-6, where an individual acts based on the developed capacity to experience "interchangeably, and indistinguishably' the human impact on the "others" in a situation, and on the "self".

Fewer that 1 in 150 people reach 'species normal' healthy adulthood - 'self-actualization'.
Contrary to almost universal misrepresentation, "self actualization" ALWAYS means becomming totally absorbed in, and utilized by the the task of advancing the future wellbeing of all humanity.

JESUS TAUGHT US: SPIRIT IS EVERYTHING

PLEASE DON'T BLOW THE FOLLOWING OFF. IT MAY SAVE YOUR LIFE. IT MAY BE MY SINGLE GREATEST CONTRIBUTION.

Dr. King thought that clearly Jesus taught us that Spirit is everthing, so he wanted to understand conceptually what constituted the dimensions of Spirit. He figured that such a clear conception would enable him and others to develop that Spirit to its maximum strength / capacity, and to enable a much clearer warning indicator of when the Spirit was nonexistant or critically ill. The following depicts Dr. King's conception. Each dimension can expand or contract independant of the others. The larger the area of the rectangle, the more complete and healthy the Spirit. Jesus tried, and so far failed at making this our Religion:

The dimensions of Spirit / UNIVERSAL LOVE / Otherishess / Brotherhood / LIFE:





















I've found Dr. Kings conception enormously helpful, but I began to wonder - is Adolf Hitler explained simply by being a small version of this cube - weak in every dimension. It became clear to me that no, this does not explain a Hitler. There are opposites for each of these dimensions. I believe that what follows is a reasonable and profoundly enlighening attempt at what this opposite, Flesh is. The U.S. and U.K. have succeeded beyond the dreams of avarice so far at making what follows the World Religion to which we enslave ourselves and eagerly sacrifice our children:

The dimensions of Flesh / Selfishness / Lust / Capitalism / DEATH
/ EMPIRE:






















Dr. King: "Life's most persistant and urgent question is, what are you doing for others."

Jesus: "What good is it if you have all of the world, but lose your Life?"
Life's central choice: Stand on the spirit of
A. UNIVERSAL LOVE, or
B. EMPIRE

THE CENTRAL TEACHINGS OF JESUS

Tolstoy's translation of Jesus Gospel as found in the original Greek Texts is that which seems the most clear and Truthful by far: "The Gospel in Brief." Two books that grew out of "The Gospel in Brief" proved monumentally important: "The Kingdom of God is Within You" created Gandhi / became his bible; "The Law of Love and the Law of Violence" deeply influenced Dr. Martin Luther King at Crozier Seminary when he was young. From "The Gospel in Brief," I find these to be the essential teachings of Jesus:


p58 "...my teaching ... works of love to one's neighbor."

p58 "The external worship of God cannot be combined with works of love. The old teaching of the external worship of God cannot be combined with my teaching of works of love to one's neighbor."

p67 "He gave the spirit to the world, and the spirit itself lives in men, and men who liveby the spirit make up the kingdom of God."

p67 "A woman puts yeast in the kneading trough and mixes it with the flour; she then stirs it no more, but lets it ferment and rise. As long as men live, God does not interpose in their life."

p67 "For the spirit there is neither death nor evil. Death and evil are for the flesh, but not for the spirit."

p72 "If all praise them [the rich], woe to them, because only deceivers get everybody's praise."

p73 "...he who shall fulfill [the commandments I give], and shall thereby teach others, shall be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven."

p75 "All sensuality destroys the soul, and therefore it is better for you to renounce the pleasure of the flesh than to destroy your life."

p75 "... the soul ... your life."

p79 "All men are His children, and therefore all are brothers to you."

p80 "All these commandments are contained in this one: All that you wish people should do for you, do even so to them."

p80 "I. Do not be angry, but be at peace with all men. II. Do not seek delight in sensual gratification. III Do not swear anything to anyone. IV. Do not oppose evil, do not judge, and do not go to law. V. Do not make any distinction among men as to nationality, and love strangers like your own people."

p80 "... love strangers like your own people ... "

p82 "The light of the body is the eye, and the light of the soul is the heart. If your eye is dim, then all of your body will be in darkness. And if the light of your heart is dim, then all your soul will be in darkness."

p89 "My food is to do the will of Him who gave me life, and to fulfill that which He intrusted to me."

p94 "... the fulfillment of the Father's will depends on each man's effort and striving to make people see that life is given, not for oneself personally, but for the fulfillment of the Father's will, which alone saves from death and gives life."

p99 "... the nourishment of man is the spirit descended from heaven. This it is which gives life to the world."

p102 "... Our flesh is the true food for the real life."

p106 "I drive out evil by summoning people to fulfill the will of the Spirit, the Father, who gives life to all."

p118 "That which stands high in the eyes of men, is abomination in the eyes of God."

p118 "Now the kingdom of heaven is attainable on earth, and great are they who enter it. But they enter it, not the rich, but those who have nothing."

p121 "Do not kill. Do not commit adultery. Do not lie. Do not steal. Further, honor your Father, and fulfill His will; and love your neighbor as yourself ... One small thing you have left undone. You have not fulfilled that which you say. If you wish to fulfill these commandments ... above all, the comandment: Love your neighbor as yourself - then, at once sell all your goods, and give them to the poor. Then you will have fulfilled the father's will."

p121 "... sell all your goods, and give them to the poor ..."

p121 "... above all ... love your neighbor as yourself ..."

p124 "See now, this poor widow has put in two forthings in the boc. She has put in more than all. Because they put in that which the did not need for their own livelihood; while this woman has put in all that she had; has put in her whole life."

p124 "... put in [all that you have] ... put in [your] whole life ..."

p128 "... God should be served not in the temple and by sacrifices, but in the spirit, and by deeds."

p128 "...God should be served ... in the spirit, and by deeds."

p129 "Your law of Moses is not the Father's law ...."

p135 "If your father were one with me, you would love me, because I came forth from that Father."

p136 "I am from the Father of good, from God; but you [Orthodox] are from the devil, from the father of evil."

p136 "... the Father of good ... God ..."

p139 "There are shepherds to whom the sheep are the chief interest in life, and who give up their lives for the sheep. These are true shepherds. And their are hirelings who do not care about the sheep, because they are hirelings, and the sheep are not theirs; so that if a wolf comes they abandon their charge and flee from them, and the wolf devours the sheep."

p140 "My teaching is this - to give up one's life for the life of men."

p142 "Every man in the spirit is the son of God."

p151"... Men do not love even a reminder of the spirit which lives in them, and declares to them that it is eternal and they are not eternal; and they have killed, as far as they could, the consciousness of the spirit; they have wrapped in a cloth and burried in the ground the talent that was given them."

p166 "I am teaching ... how to save people."

p172 "... Christ is that same Lord, our Ruler, whom we know in ourselves as our life. Christ is that understanding which is in us."

p172 "... Christ... in ourselves as our life."

p172 "... Christ ... that understanding which is in us."

p173 "From [the orthodox] comes all the evil in the world; because they hide the good, and instead of it uphold evil."

p173 "[The orthodox] do the easiest thing, the external thing; that which is needful and difficult - love, compassion, truth - they leave undone."

p173 "... that which is needful and difficult - love, compassion, truth ..."

p174 "There is one temple of God, that is, the hearts of men when they love each other."

p181 "... the present society of men is condemned to destruction. From now that which rules this world shall be destroyed."

p182 "... my Father, the living spirit in me ...."

p182 "... my Father ... the spirit of understanding ..."

p182 "He who believes in my teaching believes not in me, but in that spirit which gave life to the world."

p187 "Seek to be only thus distinguished from other people - Love one another."

p194 "My commandment is, that you love one another as I have loved you."

WE ARE IMORTAL. THE ONLY DEATH IS SELFISHNESS

Have no belief in a God being that can hear us. It is madness to live is though there is not a Father of us all.

I have no belief in any type of life after my body is gone in the sense that no part of me will experience anything.

It is profoundly real to me, as real as the keyboard I am typing on, that we are Imortal beings. Gandhi will live on as long as does the universe. My father, Edward John McGinley will live on as long as there are people that knew him, or were helped by those that did.

We are Spirit / Psychological beings. You and I will never know anything outside the immaginings of our mind. Everything else is virtual illusion.

Life is Unconditional Love / Brotherhood / Family of Man / Otherishness. The only possible death can come from my own "hand" when I choose Selfishness over Otherishness. This is true for you too.

Darfur Hunger Striker's Letter to President el-Bashir

March 13, 2007

President el-Bashier
Country of Sudan, Africa, Human Family

Dear brother,

I mourn to the point of death for your mutilated humanity / the “death” of your Soul, of your heart. I mourn for the torment, atrocity the Hell on Earth you have created as the result for my brothers and sisters in Darfur.

I love you my brother. You are no better or worse than I. You are no more to blame for who you are than I am for who I am.

But I am to blame if I do not do whatever I am able with my life to bring you back to your humanity, your sanity, your Divine Self.

I'm a poor student of life but everything I have learned in life* launches me on a course. This is my 13th day of Hunger Strike (60 in the last 9 months; 134 days of Vigil at the White House), intended to be Ransom for the restoration of your Humanity, for your Soul and for the salvation of my dear brothers and sisters in Darfur.

Today by noon I hope to be in front of your Embassy in Washington delivering this letter. I intend to continue my water only hunger strike until it is clear to me that your Heart has thawed toward your family of Darfur. I believe I am prepared to let the hardheartedness that is exterminating Darfuries exterminate myself as well in the hopes that one more body might help you see.

My brother, you are going down in history and in our Father's eyes as a butcher of humanity along side of Hitler, Bush, Cheney, the Zionists and Pol Pot. My brother, it is not too late. You need only turn from your head, from endless dialog, you need only turn to your Heart, the domain of our Father. Your heart, our Father will tell you what to do.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Your loving brother forever,

Start Loving

Press release attached: http://jesusgodgoodetcnjay.blogspot.com/2007/03/press-release-darfur-hunger-strike.html

My Religion is Loving. My Church - folks known for Loving all of All. My Master is Jesus.

CANCER IS ONE OF THE TWO POSSIBLE STATES OF ORGANIC STUFF

Life is a process whether we are speaking organically or psychologically.

The Life process of the "cell" is either working for the wellbeing and regeneration of the entire "body" or it is "cancer." Cancer is simply organic stuff that loses health in such a way that it neglects its duty, role, God given, evolution given function - neglect of the other.

The "mind" is either dedicated to the wellbeing of the "body" or it literally is "cancer" - killing the body of mankind, and dying itself.

"The Kingdom of our Father is within you. Be like a child and find it," Jesus.

The essence of a child is to Love. Yes it gets pissed when it has a poop in its pants, but its essence is to Love, be connected, fascinated, enthralled, empathetic, compassionate, caring, helpful (yes). These are our neotenous (Montegue) species traits of Health. Losing this essence of Loving is the psychological equivalent to losing and arm, or being riddled with cancer; and it is the equivalent of becomming a killer virus to the body of humankind.

Cure and health of the psyche is the moral and species survival imperrative of all humans - cure thy self, cure thy brother, or perrish.

Whereas I think Jesus is "the great," pro golfers beside Tiger Woods...

... could also make me great if I followed them.

I absolutely think Jesus was the greatest psychologist / spiritual leader of all time.

However, so what? At the Heart of all the great religious are great psychologists / spiritual leaders.

Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, Atheism, Humanism... pick one and become great at it. This is the material and spiritual salvation of planet earth. Our lives are at stake.

NOT SO WITH PSYCHOLOGISTS - Alder [see posts this site] and secondarily Abraham Maslow, M. Csikszentmihaly, Rogers, Victor Frankl are our only choices, for Life's sake. The others fall between trivial and pathological - especially Freud.

NOT SO WITH THE PHARISEES, AND HYPOCRITES. THE ORIGINAL TEACHINGS FROM THE SOURCE, AND THE FEW SAINTS ARE THE ONLY SOURCE OF LIFE.

CLINICALLY: OUR "HUMANITY" IS OUR LIFE

Our humanity - Love, Conscience, Courage, Otherishness, Wisdom, Truth - our Heart / Soul IS our Life.

"What profiteth a man if he wins the world but loseth his life," Jesus.

'Social interst pursued with great courage IS the measure of the health [life] if the psyche,' Alfred Adler, psychologist [synthesis].

To fight to awaken the Humanity / Soul / Otherishness / Love / Brotherly Love of another is literally to fight for his / her life.

Activists / Christians, the stakes are much higher than you / we / I thought.

Activists / Christians, the moral imperitive / mandate / justification / reason is much clearer than we thought.

3.12.2007

JESUS SHOWED US HOW TO WIN THE GAME - END WAR, STAVE OFF ARMAGEDDON

We haven't seen it.

Jesus was a psychologist. Get this, get over it, get on with it, or the game is over... Get this, get on with it, and the world may yet be Saved.

Football players know how to "see" what is happening, and what "will happen" on the football field. They truly and deeply "know" what is going on.

There is no evidence of this in any group that calls itself "Christian," "Activist," or "Nonviolent Revolutionary."

We are like this: Imagine that a Nuclear Powered, Indestructable Lap Top was transported back 2000 or 4000. Years. Imagine the "mysticism," the "Ritual," the "Religion" it would inspire. It could be hundreds or thousands of years until its real value was undersoood.

Instead of growth charts, detailed strategies, objective goals, quantification of results... all the tools that enable the Pentagon, and Military / Industrial complex to be the Church, to rule the world, are unavalable to us because Christianity is all about some future life, and Saving ourselves or that Life.

No. In the name of God see this. Jesus absolutely, concretely showed us the strategy for shocking, clinically shocking humanity into its Right Mind.

Gandhi's Bible, Tolstoy's "The Kingdom of God is Within You," the entire reason it was written was so Tolstoy could make this point as best he could: 'The entire world has been exposed to Jesus teachings. It is leading to only horror so far. But I think, like a supersaturated chemical solution in a glass, with just the right impact it can instantly crystalize and transform entirely - in a flash.' [paraphrase]

Tolstoy, Gandhi, King... were all "mad" with similar inklings.

BUT WE LACKED ADLER'S MODEL OF MENTAL HEALTH! PHYSICISTS LACKED EINSTEIN'S THEORY OF RELATIVITY! LOOK WHAT THEY'VE DONE IN THE DECADES SINCE! LOOK WHAT ALL THE PHYSICAL MANIFESTATIONS THAT EINSTEINS THEORY UNLEASHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

JESUS AND ADLER. PLEASE HAVE FAITH. EVERTHING IS AT STAKE, YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE AND WE HAVE EVERYTHING TO GAIN.

JESUS/ADLER ARE TO MENTAL/SPIRITUAL HEALTH WHAT EINSTEIN WAS TO PHYSICS

Get this, or the game is over.

See any and all notes on this and wherever you can on Alfred Adler.

This is what "Christianity" has been missing.

Whatever "mystical," "Divine being" aspects there are associate with Jesus; Jesus died to teach us about our mental lives, how to bring ourselves to clinical health, and that...

Right Understanding is the keys to Heaven on Earth.

MILITANT, "MILITARY" NONVILENT ACTION IS A MORAL & SPIRITUAL IMPERITIVE.

We cannot be Christian if we are anything less.

SPIRITUAL: "Saving" the Soul is to be a brother to a stranger that will gladly sacrifice themselves to help. This and only this can activate, "Save" the Immortal Soul.

MENTAL: IF OUR MIND IS DEAD, WE ARE DEAD. WILL GOD / CONSCIENCE / MORALITY / HUMANITY FORGIVE US IF WE LEAVE A DYING MAN UNATTENDED?

IF WE NEGLECT MILITANT NONVIOLENCE RISKING ENTIRELY OUR LIVES, WE ARE MORALLY AND SPIRITUALY LOST, FOREVER.

!!!!!!!! ALFRED ADLER !!!!!!!!!!!!

Adler was a contemporary of Freud. [Be careful! Just as is the case today with our understanding of Jesus teachings, for the same reason, do not, repeat, do not look to any of the "followers" of Adler to understand his work. NEVER. Go to his original writings (link above.) Having said that, to help you guage the credibility of what follows, and the cursory evidence as to where Adler falls in today's field of psychology I point you to a 6o second scan (no longer than that!) of International Association of Individual Psychology, Alfred Adler Graduate School, and dozens of other organizations world-wide.

Adler was as Healthy as Freud was Mentally Sick. Freud is to be forgiven. In essence it is as though was born into and lived his entire life in a mental ward for the seriously insane. Freud had absolutely no concept of "Health." You cannot have a valid psychology without experience and grasp of Health. How can you know what direction to move your clients?

Freud and Adler worked together. Adler broke off in his own direction.

Freud, in a society in Lust with burgeoning Capitalism (mandate to abandon brotherly responsibility; just invented in Freud's time) became its Darling. Freud validated that the toxic effect of inhumane competition was "normal" and therefore something to be accepted; something to be resigned to. It was a perfect marriage!

The parallel between the first 80 years of Jesus' life and that of Adler is enormous in that they both developed an tremendously loyal, potent, committed following that was in the vast minority and either ridiculed or ignored by the "main stream." Adler considered his psychology a "scientific" rendering of Jesus teachings. He was correct. God forgive me for not seeing the global implications until this week.

ESSENCE OF ADLER'S THEORY:
* We are born with an inbuilt paradigm. We WILL see humanity / others as family to be servant to; or enemy to be feared and exploited.
* We are far worse than terrible at managing this paradigm.
* Environment is the key determinant of selecting the paradigm. The environment if courageously "friendly" is likely to cause shift to the "friendly" paradigm in the other - OTHERISHNESS. The environment if at all "hostile" is likely to evoke the paradigm "enemy," "other" to be exploited - SELFISHNESS.

One of the five most difficult, MOST IMPORTANT books I have ever read is Adler's, "The Individual Psychology of Alfred Adler." Please get it, read it and understand it. Now. Before it is too late.

PRESS RELEASE: Darfur Hunger Strike Moves to Sudan Embassy 24 Hours Per Day

Darfur Hunger Strike Moves to Sudan Embassy 24 Hours Per Day Until el-Bashir Regains His Humanity

Washington, DC March 12, 2007 Darfur Hunger Strike day thirteen moves to the Sudan Embassy tomorrow at about noon where the striker intends to remain until Sudan President el-Bashir regains his humanity and brings full and generous protection, relief and restoration to his tortured Darfur family. Start Loving, previously known as Jay McGinley, has attempted to end the Darfur Genocide since May 14, 2006 by vigiling 134 days at and around the White House, accompanying this with 60 days of water-only hunger strike.

Loving, an executive in the computer industry turning around failing organizations most of his adult life, is also a trained psychological counselor and was on the management team of a small retail chain in Philadelphia until May 13, 2006 when he gave up everything to fight nonviolently in DC for his Darfur family.

“I appeal to the heart, to the humanity, to the Immortal Soul of my brother el-Bashir,” said Loving. “Al-Bashir is headed toward a place in history alongside Adolph Hitler, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Zionists and Pol Pot. He has the blood of millions on his hands. I hope to give my life, if that is required, in an attempt to awaken his heart in time to save my brother and some of our Darfur brothers and sisters. I hope to find the heroism and courage of my blessed brother and sister U.S. Soldiers who willingly give their Lives in Iraq for others, as mistaken as their beliefs may be.”

According to the faith based SaveDarfur.org coalition, “not since the Rwandan genocide of 1994 has the world seen such a calculated campaign of displacement, starvation, rape, and mass slaughter... Darfur has been embroiled in a deadly conflict for over three years. At least 400,000 people have been killed; more than 2 million innocent civilians have been forced to flee their homes and now live in displaced-persons camps in Sudan or in refugee camps in neighboring Chad; and more than 3.5 million men, women, and children are completely reliant on international aid for survival.”

Loving faces added difficulties in his Sudan Embassy Hunger Strike campaign including a record of arrests for peacefully demonstrating at the Pentagon, Federal Court House and the White House. Despite more than 60 nonviolent, all night vigils in front of the White House acknowledged by the police to be lawful and admirable, in late January of 2007 a rogue police officer, under the cloak of darkness, harassed and then arrested Loving for sitting up under a tree holding Darfur posters; just as Loving had done on the previous nights. Loving's court date for this arrest is March 21st and the Sudan Embassy Hunger Strike will preclude attendance at this hearing.

Additionally, Loving is completely without support or backing for his campaign which will make his campaign more difficult to survive for any significant length of time. On previous strikes Loving has had access to water , bathroom facilities and the protection of Lafayette Park Officers. Additionally, without support Loving has no knowledge or experience to guide him regarding the potential behavior of police. Despite the fact that he will be entirely nonviolent it is unknown what police action may be mounted by the various law enforcement agencies.

“Time is long past “up” for our Darfur family, and for the Soul of my brother el-Bashir” said Loving. “I have no illusion that my efforts will make any difference, but that is not my responsibility. Our Father calls us to be faithful, not successful. As best I can tell Our Father, Humanity, Conscience, Love, whatever you call it demands that we risk everything we have to awaken a Saving Love, Brotherhood, Humanity in a brother, el-Bahsir, in the face of such suffering and atrocity. This is my best attempt.”

Attachment: Letter to el-Bashir

Dear Inner Family, Hunger Strike moves to Sudan Embassy

Know that I have never been more filled with Joy, Peace, Love, Life and Agony.

Saint Thomas is getting back on his feet and this morning returned to his Sacred 25 year Vigil in the park. I received the sacred blessing of being commissioned by Thomas to cover his activity there for several days while he recovered from his illnesses. Thomas and Ellen have opened a portal there in front of the White House that enables writing on people's Hearts as few places on earth can match. No I am not talking about the location. I'm talking about the 25 years of Faithfulness, vision, courage, perseverance, Heroism, Love, Long Suffering, Wisdom, Truth that Our Father has built using them. They have opened a window to write on peoples hearts. May our Father bless their Hearts for creating this and may Thomas and Ellen finally learn to accept His Blessing of their Hearts with His/Her Infinite Love, Peace, Joy, and Life as they have not fully learned to accept up until this point in time. May She give them the Wisdom, Truth, support and Courage to continue their work with all of their Hearts, Wisdom and Truth.

With Thomas getting back on his feet to cover the 25 year vigil, and with others available to share coverage with him until he is 100%, my work here is at an end, for now.

I have longed to participate in the voluntary arrests Friday Night, March 16th with as many as 400 others at the White House after walking from the National Cathedral - Christian Peace Witness for Iraq. I have longed to participate in the Jonah House / Dorothy Day Catholic Worker April 4-6 Retreat (Holy Week Faith and Resistance Retreat) and to risk arrest with them each of the three days. All this if I did not land in jail March 21st for my wrongful arrest in late January at the White House.

But our Father seems strongly, urgently and Lovingly calling me back to Darfur, and I am overwhelmed with Joy and gratitude. I expect She will have me in front of the Sudan Embassy Tomorrow by noon. Seems She wants me there for as long as my flesh lasts, and the police permit. At the end of this post is the Press Release that some of today will be devoted to distributing. Please fell free to distribute further if you are so moved [or to blow this entire matter off!] as my time, and resources (no on-line press list for example) are profoundly limited at this point.

I would Lie if I said other than that after a lifetime of Living a Prayer for Wisdom and insight, this week our Father finally gave up hope of me figuring out the till-now hidden secrets of Making Global Peace and Brotherhood. My sense of that beginning late last week She finally threw up Her hands with something like, "Ok Start, you imbecile, I'll show you! Now listen carefully and write what I tell you!!! Now stand on the shoulders of Jesus, Dellinger, Gandhi, King, the Berrigan Brothers, Adler, Maslow, Hugo, Dickens, Dorothy Day, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, OPEN YOUR EYES, AND SEE!"

Between now and noon tomorrow I will devote most of my time to this task, writing all that She has shown me to the best of my pitiful abilities. I feel certain that She has given me Divine Inspiration and that it will be a grave Sin against Humanity if I do not share, and you do not carefully ponder what She has shown me. Pretty Absurd huh? This writing will go primarily on the blog: Jesus, Good, G d-Father, Alfred Adler, n Start Loving. I will not finish in time - tomorrow; and as of this moment it is little more than an outline!!!! But by tomorrow the more fleshed out outline will be enough if you work at it, PRAY AND USE YOUR IMAGINATIONS... AND YOUR HEARTS / CONSCIENCE / WISDOM / SOUL. In the name of G d I pray you do so.

With Love for you forever and missing you painfully already, your brother, Start
[Following is the Press Release and Letter to my brother el-Bashir.............. ]

Not yet ready to die for your brothers and sisters? Not yet Christian.

Not yet giving your life for "the least of these [your] family?" Not yet Christian.

"A man who does not know what he is willing to die for, is not [yet] fit to live," Dr. ML King.

"If you would have your life, you will lose it," Jesus.

"The good shepherd lays down his life for his flock," Jesus.

"To be Christian I think your life should resemble Christ's," Teresa of Calcutta.

The lives of our heroes, both nonviolent (brotherly) attest to this truth: Gandhi, Jesus, Dr. King, Mandella, All the Saints, Beko, Bonhoeffer, Corrie, Romero, Jan Juste.................................................................

Is Start Loving ready? Who the Hell knows! I think he is, eager even if it will help.

HEALTH, SANITY, JESUS DEMAND THAT RAISING AN ARMY OF HEROES IS PRIMARY

Activist community, my beloved Catholic Workers take heed.

You are mortally neglect in this regard, and deeply blind it appears to me. And no wonder. You have deprived of access to Adler's Theory!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ADLER: There are two, and only two basic ways to be human, to approch and live the problems of life. We all select and live out our lives using one or the other:
A. Mankind is basiclly hostile - live accordingly. As subily or overtly as you need to do - "do unto others before they do unto you."
B. Mankind is basically Friendly / "Family"- live out your lives accordingly - "do unto others ALL that you would have them do unto you.
Adler goes on to demonstrate that "A" is an ERROR (sin) which can be corrected by powerful exposure to evidence that man is in fact friendly / "Family."

See that you are indeed called, morally mandated to raise all human kind as a permanent army of brothers. In this single act alone you will end war; you will cause mass, entire desertion from the forces of Selfishness - warmaking, capitalism, fascism, the state.

This is the work Jesus began. This is the work that Nicea put a final end to. This is the work you are called to. Know that you are called to give your lives entirely in whatever way our Father calls you to do.

We are out of time. You see this and proceed, or it is the end of humankind.

I pray you, I pray we are not too late.

Selfishness, Lustfulness is clinically Insane / Pathological / Pathenogenic

Insane, clinically, because it displaces Brotherliness / "Social Interest," Alfred Adler's measure of human health.

Pathogenic because is induces selfishness in others. Selfishness, private logic, treating the other as not-brother is insane, a diminishment of human health.

Who the hell is Alfred Adler? Oh God, it is time for your faith. See a post above on the subject. Is it mere coincidence that Dr. King quoted Adler in one of his last and most important sermons, "The Drum Major Instinct?"

Who the hell was John the Baptist!??!!? "Did you expect to see someone in fine clothes?"

Imagine the implications for the Peace Movement if you conclude that violence and war are Truly mental health issues. Imagine the implications.

Trust me at least enough to look into this further, in the name of God! See posts on Adler elsewere on this site.

We are "ALL EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY."

Genocide in Darfur?
We Americans are "ALL EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY."

Apartheid/Genocide in Israel/Palestine?
We Americans are "ALL EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY."

Three million slaughtered in Congo to steal raw materials for western "stuff?"
We Americans are "ALL EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY."

etc...

etc...

etc....

Why the hell have I spent four of the last eight months in front of the White House regarding Darfur Genocide? Because I can't continue to be "all evidence to the contrary."

I've just watched "Rachel Corrie: An American Consicience." At youtube you can find snippets on Rachel (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, more Rachel). But this movie is devistatingly effective at showing the Genocide of the Palastinian people.

We Americans, the normal day-to-day lives (deaths) we live are "ALL EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY."

WE ARE GUILTY OF VIOLENCE IF WE DO NOT CONFRONT VIOLENCE

Sanity, Health, Salvation is being Loving, Brotherly.
Insanity, pathology, illness is EVERYTHING else.

We are guilty of violence if we abandon our brother to , insanity, disease, illness, pathology.

See Jesus and Alfred Adler.

I LOVE JESUS AND I THINK THIS IS 99% OF WHAT HE DIED TO TELL US. HE GAVE HIS LIFE TO SHOW US HOW TO BECOME BIOLOGICALLY, NEUROLOGICALLY HEALTHY HUMANS. HOW MUCH LONGER WILL HIS DEATH BE IN VANE?

OUR FATHER'S KINGDOM IS THE HEART & SOUL. ONLY IN THE HEART ARE WE TO DWELL.

Our only hope of you seeing this is to use your Heart or s (as distinct from what seems to you to be your "mind," "logic," "reason...") to examine this.

What we in our more lucid, wise moments refer to as our "Heart" AND "Soul" is the part of our nervous system that is the seat, yes?, of:

* Conscience
* Wisdom
* Compassion
* Insight
* Revelation
* Soul
* Spirit....

Well, obviously this is The Kingdom of God is the Heart & Soul!!! [Did you know that? I didn't!]:
A. Within ourselves
B. In the world!!!!!!!!! The kingdom is the Heart and Soul of all human kind [whatever else it may be in addition.]

The turf, the battle field for "humanists," "Budists," "Christians," "Hindu's," "Muslims..." is the Human Heart & Soul - Clinically! If we fight and win there, the body must and will follow. We haven't even played there seriously. We mistakenly thought that all the teachings had more to do with some after life than life on the planet today. Yes we had some vague idea, but with Adler we can go from weak vision and theory to hard hitting, confident, courageous self-sacrificial, totally nonviolent battle for humanity!

THE OPPOSITE OF LOVING IS VIOLENCE. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE.

The opposite of breathing is death.

The opposite of your heart beating is death.

The opposite of full health is disease.

The opposite of proper "cell" activity 24/7 is death of the body.

We are social creatures. We are all "cells" in the body of human kind. We serve each other 24/7 or the body dies. Use your Heart and see this. Use your Head, you will NOT see it; GAME OVER.
