Being and Cosmos

In this blog i will add some thoughts on reconnecting Being and Cosmos using insights i have acquired from both Western and indigneous Australian sources.

Reconnecting our Being with Cosmos is a healing challenge.

At present i am writing "Becoming Otherwise" about the need to end ethnocide - and will post my initial materials here for comment and feedback.

From my former anthropological teacher, Prof Jan Pouwer, i learnt much about the importance of complementary opposition as a useful tool for looking a life - an inclusive both-and healing approach in comparison to the exclusive either/or divisive logic which is part of the self-styled "age of reason'.

From Warumungu/Alyawarrea senior men i learnt the need to try to get non-indigenous Australians (and others) to understand their true surroundings.

My other blogs include one on Cosmology (in the wider sense).

Lately, as part of the Darwin 200 celebration, i have been writing about Darwin, naturalism and related matters. See http://songlinesoz.spaces.live.com/
