We have problems of power politics, ponzi economics, a pyramid society, and pop or
pomp culture. Actually we have a pseudo culture, not really a culture or cultivation
that can cease and change karmas.
Organisms orient toward self sustenance and survival, homeostasis and metastasis
with their karma-machines and karma-kinetics. Evolution is also devolution –
division and diversion from the wholesome whole.
Humans have developed ego infatuation, elation, and estrangement, which become
the triple poisons of delusion, craving, and anger, causing samsara, suffering, and
strife as hellish beings, hungry ghosts, fighting devils, etc.
The small separated self is like a cancer cell, spreading, smothering, and slaying the
whole organism, organization, organic system – individual, social, ecological
systems with wars, disasters, destructions, demises, etc.
A wholly wholesome whole requires a paradigm shift from sinfulness (sick
separation, like a disruptive cancer or bubble) to holiness (wholesome whole,
like a harmonious body or ocean).
Holiness (hagia, ariya: wholeness) is inevitable for and interdependent with health
(wholesomeness). The harmonious unity of them is essential for true happiness
(whole wholesomeness, wholesome with all) throughout time and space.
Holy harmonious healthy happiness is possible in sitting, stopping karmas, and
settling into a holy harmonious healthy realm of unconditioned peace (nirvana)
and unsurpassed awakening (bodhi) in ultimate truth, goodness, and beauty.
