Eco-spirituality pioneer Charlene Spretnak has long inspired me. I sent her my book and she replied with a endorsement:
"[this book] shows us how to achieve a sensuous and aware immersion in nature... so gentle, wise, and encouraging — urgently needed in our hypermodern world.”
I’m deeply honored.

There’s been a lot of talk about flags lately, so I thought it was about time I raised one. This is the Union Jill, a symbol of protest at the Twyford Down in the 1990s. It seems appropriate to raise the Union Jill again now as a symbol of resistance to fear, oppression and greed.

Very unsatisfying discussion on BBCRadio4 about whether democracy is a failed experiment. Where was the anarchist expert? Sophie Scott-Brown would have offered a genuine alternative. Is anarchist thought ignored because it's uncomfortably reasonable?

Given Reality: embodiment, the other-than-human, our animality.
Invented Reality: Nations, money, etc.
Why do we give so much attention to what's been made up and so little to what's given? Maybe it's partly a distraction 🤔. The result is what we might call an 'industrialized mentality'.
