Dear All,
Some recent conversations have led me to prepare
the attached. I feel it contains quite a profound and stark statement about what
has gone wrong for us (humanity) philosophically, theologically and politically
- together with a glimmering of hope for how this can be remedied through
transfigural inclusionality/natural inclusion. The intransigence of
objective definition is a real 'compassion killer'. This intransigence is the
habit that I think we need urgently to educate ourselves beyond.
I think those of us who are trying to introduce
transfigural inclusionality/natural inclusion to the world are all, in our
different ways, feeling our way beyond the barricades of this 'intransigence'
that arises from definitive logic. I think 'intransigence' is a good word for
describing the imposition of a false discontinuity that lets nothing through,
most fundamentally by abstracting matter from space. Those of us who are more
inclusionally receptive (i.e. 'open to creative possibility') find encounters
with intransigence bruising and difficult to know how to permeate or by-pass.
All of us can find ourselves 'at a loss' when we are presented with a situation
where there just isn't any way through 'the thick skin' that confronts our
inclusional intent (including, as it can sometimes turn out, our own thick
skin!). And such is the truly radical nature of our enquiries, that there
aren't any precedents or guidebooks to help us, so we need to help one
another.
Warmest
Alan
