For clarification when necessary, I will define words that I use if the way I use them varies from ordinary usage, and elaborate on concepts that are perhaps not taken into consideration when defined in common vernacular.
Inevitably, it must remain an ongoing process, updating as I go along...
The Misfit Shaman: Someone who never fit in anywhere, especially among shamen. Not that I know any, but blogging hardly seems a traditional approach.
Sustainability: An as-indefinite-as-possible continuation of the development of consciousness, taking into consideration as many as possible variables that can be entertained in the moment.
Mind Control: An unwarranted imposition upon or intrusion into a sovereign mind-scape
Skepticism: The ability to entertain any and all ideas in reference to the best paradigms at hand and reject those models if unsuitable to explain the phenomenon.
Belief: A favoured perspective utilized for its capability to fulfill a conceptual requirement.
(new definition for belief, more appropriate to overstanding: A predictive model based on experience)
Anarchy: A commitment to helping as best as possible for living organisms to form harmonious ecological niches where evolution can happen consciously, intentionally, and consensually, among respectfully diverse forms of life.
Overstanding: An individual's experience, the self as it is, whether recognized as such or not.
Understanding: The common experience, as modeled and modulated through the use of language
Statism: The doctrine that holds the 'corporations' people identify as 'Nation-States' to be sovereign entities, and that the 'citizens' who've tacitly rescinded their god-given sovereignty to be reclassified as operational chattel for monetary consideration and not the freely unique flesh-and-blood children of god.
