Saving the world with muscle!
Ask The Question
The human perceptual system is such that when you ask the question properly it contains within it a large part of the answer. Searching for the evidence of objective reason is only one way to ask the question. It is not the only way and it is not the best way in many situations.

Save The World anyone? Any takers? No interest? Got better stuff to do?
What if saving the world is tremendously gratifying spiritually, mentally, and physically? What if it is as good as sex? What if it actually means self discovery and tremendous joy?

The idea of a model is like magic, like a key to perceptual shift. It is very synergistic, easily memorable and intuitive. It kind of looks like an egg. Seriously. I teach about two very powerful neurological versions of the model and then I also teach my own embodied anatomy version.

@ardemp.bskyverified.social I have written a substantive essay on the epistemological politics of the muscle sense. I would love to get your thoughts. I have sent an email with an abstract to your scripps.edu address. I hope you see the significance I point to!

Howdy! We interacted briefly on the bio tensegrity webinar recently. We share a similar interest in the role of the body in perception. I am deep into it. Chat me up if you would like to talk sometime.

Where is consciousness?
Is it in the mind? Is it in the body? Is it in the Earth? The answer to the question is not verbal or logical. It is a different way of thinking. We do not operate complexity. We cooperate it. We use our interoceptive sensory motor system for this.

Consilience

“I have argued that there is intrinsically only one class of explanation. It traverses the scales of space, time, and complexity to unite the disparate facts of the disciplines by consilience, the perception of a seamless web of cause and effect.”

Consilience, E. O. Wilson

Our grasp of complexity theory rests upon our experiential grasp of the structure of our own bodies. This is self evident. However the self that it is evidence of is an unfamiliar inner self. Going within is the only way to understand the earth.

Where is our moral ground? Where is our ethical authority?

We traded it for online shopping.

But where is it? How do we get it back? And your indignancy is not the same thing.

Biopsychosocial Collapse
How to reverse it? Start within.
Every one of us is like a microcosm of the Earth itself. We can look to find leverage at any point in the system. That is the beauty of holistic approach. Our deep core anatomy, our animal intelligence is a very important part of the equation
