The capacity to handle complexity must be developed in early childhood to bring real change to our society (Vester: Denken, Lernen und Vergessen).

There are a finite number of elements on the periodic table.
The law of energy, and the law of mass provide the basic architecture. Of these elemental constructs there are only five things that all living things are concerned with. 1) The body, the house, the planet. 2) water 3) food 4) living energy 5) occupation; our place in the ecology. housing, water, food, occupation, energy As these elements combine and interact the possible variations are as the stars in the universe. WHOLEarth system represents the structure, the structural system of life on this planet.

And in organizational management, the complexity of the control system must match the complexity of the system controlled.

...of course, "varety" = "variety"!!!!!

have a look, c, if you haven't yet! Last I heard, after years of toing and froing is that its been canceled. not because of the scientist or the environmentalists who wanted to ensure that the pipes will be absolutely safe from, god forbid, sipping contaminated water into the aquifer, or a development in a grand scale such as this won't be environmentally sound, or that the purification of the 'red' sea will have to take place further south before it reaches the Arava... and so on and so forth, but because king Abdullah is angry with president peres for claiming it is his idea and initiative... but these are just unchecked rumors i heard... whatever it is, they will have to find a solution for both water and for living together like all the single drops of water do. |

Requisite varety? You can't put 50 liters of water in a 5 liter bottle... or pull 10 tons of coal with a one horse power engine...

Welcome to WiserEarth, Mary,
and thank you for your invitation to take part in your study. I'll think about it but will be interested to see the result when published. I wonder who mentioned my name to you if it is not a secret...?
have you tried sending a group message from the editor's page?
all the best

i've forgotten science with regards to the One Self.. how excitingly inexhaustible...

Same thing, Wade,
the all encompassing unity of life, nature, universe, existence, being, reality, essence, origin, consciousness, Mind, Spirit, God, or the divine presence of oneness, are all synonymous... that which knows this unity and that which can be known all inclusively, at its level, in the presence of oneness, is the reality of man, or the reality of humanity. What we know very well in psychology, (knowledge of the self) is the knowledge of the human condition, hence we identify with it and animate it as virtual reality thinking it is 'myself' independent from anything else. Those who came to know themselves through their reality, know it as the Ipseity - from Ipse, self - of all, interior as well as exterior. and acknowledge that what they come to see inside themselves and outside themselves are two faces of One Self which/who is the Self of all.
From this view point, there is no greater mercification than that which draws nigh to this all encompassing height, in the certainty of two eternally immutable factors; the human condition and the human reality none of which is eradicable. but whilst we are all very familiar with our impediments, our reality is knowable in potential hence can, necessarily, be only affirmed and testified when realized. but even realization is not really an improvement... a lot of students get really stuck on this point for years and years, and suffer greatly in a closed looped chase after something that is already there, perfectly, here and now... myself included...
The object and subject of the All Compassionate Self, is Itself; in every living place or inanimate form. without it there is no finite existence. A charter for compassion, ignorant of these two universal factors has yet a long way ahead of it to draw further from this beneficent mystery...
I quote from the Treatise on Being, also known as "Whoso Knoweth Himself, Knoweth His Lord" by Ibn Arabi.
"..."Oh my servant, I was sick and you did not visit Me, I begged of you and you did not give Me"... pointing to the fact that the existence of the beggar is His existence, and that the existence of the sick is His existence."
This is in reference to what I said earlier about modernity. It was mentioned after the people of the Prophet cursed the modernity of their era, and he was told to respond saying: "Revile not the Era, for He, God, is the Era".
If I refrain from afflicting pain upon you because you are no other than the One Self who is you and me in our highest reality and lowest condition, it is of entirely different order to the ethical golden rule of reciprocity - do not do unto others that which you do not want done unto you... unless, the 'other' and 'me' are known to be no other than the One Self.
this is also the essential context for the positive rule - do unto others as you would have them do unto you, as well as love thy neighbor as thyself... in vision, what is realized, is the divine love affair in relationship with itself - being both lover and beloved - in all relationships and actions...
the climate change we are facing today is not just environmental... it is first and foremost about the spiritual climate change - the true reality of our modern times with all its goodnesses and sicknesses in this global crisis... this is, in my view, the real Switch ahead of us, from, and in which, effective solutions in every possible sector are inevitable.
so - self knowledge ... in our era's love to be known as you and me and the al qaeda suicide bomber who has blown my son up... to be known afresh... this is the real context for compassion in vision.
