EXPERIENCE IS DIVINITY

Page 58

…now making their way among us — our sentinels too often sleeping, too infrequently and much too feebly signaling the alarm.

There is evidence that we are aided also by unacknowledged powers — seen and heralded only by the relatively few. All things considered, by the grace of God ... and perhaps that solely ... we might make it.

This Vision of a Primal Renaissance

Still, we must apply ourselves. We must make the effort to see clearly, to see fairly, to break through our cultural conditioning, to reach out to all those living/nonliving, to all that is threatened by our misproliferation of deeds. 

So it is that this book, Experience Is Divinity, seeks to be part of that great reversal, that primal return, indeed, that primal renaissance. In so doing it will unavoidably overturn many of our comfortable illusions. But it will attempt to do so on the basis of the evidence, and it will attempt to leave the Mystery where it properly belongs.

This radical reversal, this mushroom-like returning to our roots, reappraisal of our origins and foundations, may be the thing momentous enough and radical enough to save us, to abort our countdown to extermination. For surely a “Boy Scout” or “Civic League” approach to tackling the problems that beset us is perhaps worse than nothing in its deluding us into thinking we are accomplishing something, when it is major efforts and radical changes that are required.

Yet, as difficult as this reversal will be in the lifestyle changes, the efforts required in the domain of attitudes and conditioning — in terms of assailing the millenniums-strong fortifications of culturally conditioned ego — may verge on the near-miraculous. People do not change easily, if at all.

Still, we are aided, only fortuitously, by some of our own devices. We are goaded also by the specters of our own dissolution and by their lieutenants of epidemic disease who, sent ahead, are even…

PRIMITIVE PHILOSOPHY

Page 57

And in their hearts,
What did they feel? 
Did they think they had the right to steal 
Another man’s land 
Who had no name. 
Oh, they didn’t think he’d feel the pain. . . . 

(from “Portfolio,” Steeleye Span, 1988) 

This Radical Reversal, This Primal Return 

In the wake of this new realization a new humility is necessarily born. Both of these are nurtured further by the Westerner’s own sciences — which have overturned his cherished premises, requiring visions of the truth quite at odds with what was used to get him to this pass, and, coincidentally enough, quite akin to that which had been thrown away, beat back, persecuted, and even killed in its embodiment earlier.

This radical reversal, this mushroom-like returning to our roots, reappraisal of our origins and foundations, may be the thing momentous enough and radical enough to save us, to abort our countdown to extermination.

EXPERIENCE IS DIVINITY

Page 56

Most men they don’t need it,
White man he kills for it.
They took to the seas,
Searching for a land
That they could call paradise,
Stealing the breeze that carried them toward the sun.
With lust in their eyes,
They found a land,
And said “We found paradise,
Think of the Lord, and look at the prize we’ve won.”
We know who they were,
They were the ones who killed their brothers to steal from others.
We know who they were,
They were the ones whose sons and daughters are doing it still. . . .
And in their hearts,
What did they feel?
Did they think they had the right to steal
Another man’s land
Who had no name
Oh, they didn’t think he’d feel the pain.
So they sailed away from their own country
To another man’s land far across the sea.
And they stole that land from the people there, And they called that
land Australia.
Why did he do it, white man. . . .
They sailed away, one winter’s day,
To a sunlit land that was far away,
And they stole that land from the people there,
And they called that land America.
Why did he do it, white man. . . .
