***** 01.03.13 Ecocide's Death Fast Day 1: Solidarity with Theresa Spence, Diane Wilson
[ZERO endorsement, approval, agreement, fore-knowledge, or acceptance by Chief Theresa Spence or Diane Wilson (and here, and here )of me or my action is implied here, nor in any way has it been secured. Quite possibly, the opposite. They are not to blame, nor to be held responsible for my actions. I act entirely on my own, as best I can hear our Creator (same as them, I'll wager).]
' 'Till enough are seen UNVIOLENTLY dying for it, giving 100% of their very being, global warming, Ecocide by GHG, and trampling of such few, remaining, meaningful lives as Earth's Indigenous peoples, won't stop. [You saw Avatar, right?] HOWEVER, WHEN enough are seen dying for it, giving 100% of all that they have and all that they are, UNVIOLENTLY, global warming, Global Ecocide, and trampling of what few meaningful lives that exist... WILL STOP. IT WILL STOP, THEN. AND NOTHING LESS, NOTHING ELSE, CAN DO IT, before what tiny hope that exists now, is lost, forever.' Loving ("Global Warming's Death, Fast.")
Yes, this is my 3rd Death Fast, 39 days, then 5 days, in 2012 (here, and here). These came on the heals of two, 50 day water only hunger strikes in front of the White House, to avert Global Ecocide by GHG, in 2011. A Death Fast is not some macabre, perverted commitment to die, anymore than a weapon of mass destruction is a commitment to mass destroy. Both are weapons of ultimate power - one to destroy, the other to Create; one a weapon of ultimate Violence, the other a weapon of ultimate Loving. Sometimes, they go unused. Sometimes tests, even if unplanned, as were my 1st two, unexpectedly. Sometimes launched, but aborted. Sometimes launched, and allowed to reach their target. Sometimes irresponsibly used, or hollowly threatened - neither of which have I ever, nor will I ever do.
204 billion kids ARE my life, 200 billion to be born, 4 billion alive already. They're dead, tortured, eviscerated... already, unless we change things now. Now. NOW. TODAY. 2013. Yes, 40 years ago, when the US Government's Lincoln-created advisory panel, the National Institute of Science warned the President that global warming was the greatest threat ever to face humanity... was our last great, clear, near 100% chance to save our kids. But we've done nothing since then, we the keepers of our children - we've done nothing but make our own lives, like vultures...
So here we are (watch it. Click lwr right of vid field for full screen. Plse, watch it.):
... uh, did I mention - HERE WE ARE???
7 months ago it was clear to me that if there was enough sanity left on earth to Wage All-out Unviolent War, Waging Love, with their own bodies, to stop Global Ecocide by GHG, it was among our Indigenous Nations - Canadian (Athabascan, esp), US, Island Nations, Alaskan, Amazonian, South American, Asian...; and they and their children are the earliest victims, as usual. This came clear to me during my 1st Death Fast in the spring of 2012. I ended the 2nd Death Fast last summer, because I saw that there was no Life, no Humanity left on 2012 earth, that it already was a Dead planet, even among our Indigenous... too completely Dead for my Death Fast to do any good, and NONE OF US are to throw our lives away. Including me. EVER. ("Resurrecting your Unviolent Warrior").
But now I see four things:
1. Life among the Indigenous, I think - Chief Theresa Spence, dle no more....
2. Life elsewhere, such as Diane Wilson.
3. Clearly now I see - 'Unless the seed dies, and falls to earth, it bears no fruit,' Jesus. The anti-apartheid movement was Dead in South Africa until Steve Biko (1977) and others Died, and fell to earth 16 YEARS before apartheid fell... and then there was Life. Blacks lynched, Died in the US 1930's, Seeds that bore fruit 20, 30 years later in the '50's and '60's. Tunisian alight before the Arab Spring. Buddhist Monks alight in the early-mid1960's to stop the Vietnam Genocide half a decade later.... I've seen this pattern for years. I've wondered if I was ever to be one of these Seeds. I've not been able to see myself as that till now. I think I do now. Pretty clearly. I Pray, that I may be Prayer, a Seed, in time.
4. There is no more time. Unless the Indigenous UNVIOLENT uprising, Waging Love with their OWN BODIES, is beginning, there's no more time. NONE. The physics is, about a 20% chance it is already too late to stop. Uh, did I mention, here we are? (watch all 30 min. Trust me.)
Will there be a Death Fast 4 form me? The one I began last night, is number 3 for me.
What is a Death Fast, anyway? Well, here's the book I wrote on it: here (see tabs above) . But it is a Hunger Strike where an end victory cannot be seen in time to save the Death Faster, and the Faster's Death is a perfectly acceptable, and the most likely outcome. It is a decision to be a Seed, if that is what in the end is the best way to serve. It is the ultimate statement of all perfect Unviolent warfare: 'I am here to collect what is rightfully mine ( in this case - legislation to charge NOW, the $250 / ton of GHG that currently is being 'billed' to our kids in the future - see vid), a future for my 204 billion kids. And if the price for that is my life, I'm perfectly happy to pay it! Right now.'
Death Fast NEVER is a decision to die! It is a decision to serve with one's last breath, in my case, the Mission of the virtually impossible averting of Global Ecocide by GHG, with ONE'S LAST BREATH, WITH 100% OF WHAT ONE IS, IN THE MOST PROMISING, POWERFUL (REGARDLESS OF HOW UNLIKELY) WAY POSSIBLE. ('If the idea is not absurd, it has no hope.' Einstein paraphrase). Death Fast is the ultimate weapon of the Unviolent Soldier, and it has the potential to Bear the Fruit of other Unviolent Warriors. In Steve Biko's case, 5, 10 years later. We don't have 5, 10 years. We don't have 5, 10 months:
But I can't change that. I can only change me. And so I shall continue to try, with every breath.
I wonder how this will turn out.
Until in 60 or so days from now when I expect that they cart me away, I expect to remain at the now 7 month old 22/7 vigil in front of the DC Canadian Embassy taking vitamin, Iron (for my cancer-driven anemia to reduce the torturous restless-leg syndrome that results otherwise), and zero calorie electrolytes when available. I may retreat physically for a few days or weeks, if friends in Philly will take me, cart me up and back) during the security of the Inauguration - I'm smack dab in the middle of Pr. Obama's route, LOL; but the Death Fast would continue uninterrupted.
The greatest, foundational Hope of MLK Jr, and Gandhi, our two greatest unvololent warriors of recent history, was in the Teachings of the man named Jesus, ( Tolstoy ). Mine too. I've been re-immersed in study of His teachings these recent months to be a Prayer of channeling His Teachings to my Life, and into this Lifeless, Hopeless age. I expect to continue doing so, and to attempt to study and channel as well the Lives and Teachings of Gandhi, MLK Jr, Teresa of Calcutta, the Freedom Riders, and some of the other Wise we've been given.
I see no other hope, and no other Path for me that is nearly as promising for my 204 billion kids.
God, PLEASE Save their Souls. By all indications, WE WILL NOT.
