Deep Time Medicine
'Deep Time Medicine' describes the
healing that stems from a
realisation that our tiny biographical identity is embedded in a
vast old matrix that can be traced back beyond the first living
cell, thru the supernova that gave rise to our solar system and
beyond.
Until we can claim this very universe as our own and hear within
our tissues the enraptured creation story that stretches
back
from womb to womb thru fur and scale and fin, until
then, we
remain in the grip of an old patriarch with a white beard
who
created the world 6000 years ago for the benefit of man.
Indeed, until we are stirred by a new and authentic
creation
myth, regardless of what we profess to believe, our souls remain
in the grip of this outmoded and pernicious story, as do
our
economic and political systems and the very words that pour from
our tongue.
Deep Time Medicine is the way forward, thru our roots. The mighty
epic of evolution has the power to renew us, to unite
us, to
offer us hope, empowerment and vision.
Rainforest activist, poet and deep ecology philosopher John Seed
will talk and sing and facilitate experiential exercises
that
bring us back to whom we have always been under our
socially
constructed "self".
