Waging Brotherhood: Spiritual JuJitsu

I feel quite excited that this is a very fruitful way to conceive of the approach that is cripplingly called nonviolence.

The task of this Waging Brotherhood, this Spiritual Jujitsu is to:

A. disarm/pacify/confuse / anesthetize / disengage / de-energize Selfishness; and to

B. energize / wake up / ignite / alert / fascinate / awaken / excite / inspire Otherishness / Brotherhood.

Oh boy, I know almost nothing about how to do this. For the first time I feel some insight into Patch Adams' fascination with clowning, although I do not think clowning is the answer.

Hunger Strike, Lengthy Prison, Standing in front of an Israeli bulldozer - these are examples of ways of Spiritual Jujitsu.

"Be the change [Brotherhood] you want to see." Gandhi. Certainly this is at the center.
