Introduction

This could be another instruction book or a didactic rationale for another belief system or explanation about the E.I. Phenomenon ...but it won't be. They don't work. Instead, it will be a series of questions...questions which arise daily for those of us who deal with or work with the now epidemic and increasingly obvious incidence of Environmental Illness ...the onset of hypersensitivities to environmental, man-made contaminants which make normal life quickly impossible and will eventually curtail all life if not remediated.

These are the questions all of us who can't breathe, can't think, can't move, can't see, can't remember....hurt constantly, react to irrationally...ask ourselves every day... what is it? what can I do? why do they think I'm crazy?... and the big one..why is it happening to me at all?

There may very well be an answer. A good one. A very simple one. One that can completely rebuild our sense of fairness, purpose and justice. One that will reshape our destinies and actions. One that can reinstill sanity and purpose.

It may even be true.

The foundational principles of En Terra Science (explained elsewhere in detail on the Smart Shelter Web Site...www.smartshelter.com) insist that it does you no good for me to know your problem. It only does you good when you know your problem. My job then, if I really do know anything, is not to tell you, but to devise a system of first, the right questions for both of us to ask, then to give you background references and documentation about other causes for similair effects and finally, to devise a simple method of (En Terra...that is..On The Ground) experiments you can do...on your own turf...which could enable you to answer these questions for yourself.

But the key to progress and enlightenment does not start with answering questions...it starts by knowing which questions to ask...and that is the heart of the Avetar Paradigm. If we spend a lifetime searching for the answer to how far a snake can jump...we will forever squander our time and energy because of the mistaken belief that snakes don't wiggle.

It's about the sabatoge of our assumptions...the wrong roads we walk down because everyone else did or we think that's the way to town.

In the case of the E.I.... the chemical or emf hypersensitive...that has always started with the belief that there is something wrong with us. Wives believe it, doctors believe it, psychiatrists believe it...even most of us believe it.

Believing you are sick is a sure fire way to lock yourself into a life of being that way.

But it may not be that there is anything wrong with us at all...in fact, there is every reason to believe that there is everything right...and what is wrong is wrong with the deterioration of the soup in which we swim. When that basic assumption changes...a house of self-defeating cards tumbles and a whole new life may begin...for you and for the planet.

Is this by design??? Many of us are not only beginning to believe so...but are now living in a different...albiet vastly more possitive...universe because of the basic change...the changing of our paradigm from that of the weak and destroyed...to that of the Avetar... who will either change the world or perish.

 

Maybe It Isn't the E.I. Who's Sick

Let me beleagure you with a quick recap of my own story. I want to do this because it contains the common ingredients which have lead to a new sylibus for understanding Environmental Illness and subsequently to the dawning of a new rationale.

I grew up at first frail but then through adolescent and early adult adaptations to a point of being virtually impenetrable to disease...viruses, bacteria, etc. I went seven winters in Telluride, Colorado (20 below zero) without dawning a coat. I would describe the state of my immune system then as...being the one who never got sick.

At age 47 (I'm 60 at the time of this writing)...living in L.A., eating a horrific diet, working in the toxic building industry and living with huge manmade electromagnetic fields...I underwent what is now termed an Alpha 2 E.I. Threshold. In a six month period of time, I watched my memory collapse, my concentration vanish, paranoia skyrocket, abdominal/digestive problems escalate, skin phenomenon too grotesque to mention erupt, and my sanity and self confidence collapse.

I was at the time a very successful and well paid cabinet maker, money in the bank, retirement savings building and assets galore.

Five years later, the job was lost, the money was gone, I couldn't work, I could be out of bed no more than 3 hours a day, abdominal cramp attacks that consistently reduced me to tears on my knees holding my stomach for two hour bouts three times a day continued for two years and none of the 5 MD's, battery of V.A. Hospital tests or a psychiatrist had any clue at all what was wrong.

An accupuncturist introduced me to Environmental Illness, began the dietary and environmental clean up and finally an Electro Magnetic Field specialist filled in the last of my blanks by diagnosing a horrific field contaminated living environment.

13 years later, I am happier, healthier and have more energy than I did at age 45, have founded a network system providing help to E.I.s...among a lot of other things...live in an offgrid Micro Habitat and provide remote location work to the betterment of the biosphere as antidote to my own "Illness", global warming, environmental damage and The Ghia Chi.

A year ago, for no apparent reason...but having asked the basic spiritual question of us all ("why is this happening")...I started thinking about the state of my immune system before the threshold happened. I was the one who never got sick.

By that time, I had networked about 500 regional E.I.s. Systematically I began asking them all the same question (without any pre-biasing information about the reason)...what was your immune system like before this happened to you.

At first, I though that coincidence and a small number of queries accounted for what I was hearing. After more than a hundred of the exact same responses, it became apparent that, indeed, this may be the dawning of a new perspective regarding Environmental Hypersensitivity.

Every single one of the respondents...an I mean without exception...said: I was always the one who never got sick.

Rolling this data pool around for a couple of months a strong suspicion began to surface: maybe this army of sickos isn't actually sick at all.

Then another piece of evidence started to come into focus. I had gotten myself remarkably better (often to the point where I forget I have any hypersensitivities at all) by finally cleaning up my living environment (discussions of the Micro Habitat are on the web site...www.smartshelter.com) and moving it to places as clean and removed from human contamination as possible. I hadn't just gotten a little better...I experience today a completely new life. And I'm not alonge.

The number of other E.I.s who ever accomplish the degree of life-cleaning necessary to see the other side of this phenomenon is small...but 10 years of diligent networking identified a couple of handfulls of them...and they were seeing the same things happen.

The conclusion, scientifically, deductively is...if there was something wrong with me there would be still. On the other hand, if there was something wrong with the environment I was living in, then leaving it would reset me to go...which indeed it did.

My conclusion was this...there isn't anything wrong with me. Where the problem is is with the environment.

You can draw any conclusion you want...but you're not likely to get me to give up this new lease on health and sanity.

Not only, did I deduce, is there nothing wrong with my immune system...there is, indeed, every reason to believe that there is everything right with it.

Long ago, in absence of emf meters and enless chemical testing to diagnose Environmental Annomalies responsible for triggering reactions...we would simply council people to send in a know, knowledgable E.I. and have them do a Sniff Test. A good hypersensitive immune system can diagnose a mold, fragrance, carpet, pollution, or field problem accurately in seconds...and often leave with a one-liner solution.

It doesn't take rocket science, if you've made it this far, to begin deducing that this Canary/ Studfinder capacity coupled with a complete inability to live or survive in anything but an environmentally remediated surrounding has a purpose...especially in light of its epidemic proportions of demography.

The conventional medical industry is now capable of diagnosing less that 25% of the people who show up with severe anomalies at the average American Hospital Emergency Room. (That's diagnose....successfully treat??? Forget it.)

All of this leads somewhere. In fact, it may lead somewhere incredible. You may be beginning to see some of it. It may be worth seeing in its entirety. It may even have an evolutionary invective of quite astounding proportions.

The E.I. and the Ghia Chi

There is obviously a number of connections between any living creature and the planet which hosts it...the earth, the mother, the Ghia....george...whatever you choose to call it.

For thousands of years virtually everywhere (except here) human belief systems based themselves on invisable energy exchanges between substances animate, inanamate and astronomical.

The invisable substance containing these energies (in Chinese medicine) is called Chi. Hawaiians, Eastern Indians, American Indians...insisted that rocks have it, dogs have it, stars have it...even we have it. We got chi...kind of like a mouth full of peanut butter..good luck getting rid of it.

When we first started looking at the space-shot pictures of the planet earth, we started realizing that the sucker must be alive...seas swell, winds breathe, rocks kill, hot springs invigorate, grass makes ions...it feeds us and eats us...the planet is alive.

It then probably stands to reason that the Ghia has a Chi...which is to say, the planet has a life energy. Here is where we may leave you...or you may decide to make a leap...that's up to you. Because this text is digital in essence...you can dump it immediately and not incur any guilt or planetary wrath because you torched a piece of environmentally critical imformation that was not entombed with toxic ink onto the tortured bodies of murdered trees.

Go ahead...hit delete...or not.

But if the planet is alive...and we as a species have now contaminated it with our oil wells, power plants, chemical dumps, military demolition zones, paved parkinglots, big box scars, synthetic aroma therapy nightmares, cell phone moron phenomenologies, motorhead mania, Hummers and tract trophy homes..it may be deciding to take action.

It may have done this before. We can only surmise that when the stench of endless swamps full of fresh dinasaur poop finally hit the planets tolerance limit...something made them go away...and pretty quick.

L.A. smells worse than any bronosauris pile I've ever smelled.

Go figure.

But here we enter the realm of the totally conjectoral...as in all belief systems. But there is a diagnostic tool which, over time we could use to assess veracity.

We're pretty sure (those of us with the reasoning capacity to add) that given the current deterioration of planetary health and the concomitant escallation of immune disorder and pandemic threat...that this Ghia puppy is about to burp.

An interesting academic test might be to fix the problems and see if we get to stay around...or even get healthier (those of us who can subtract, at least).

Could it be that a living planet which birthed all other life forms, sat patiently by and watched a young and erant species defile the nest, then gave increasingly heated warnings...all of which went functionally unheeded (at least by the masses) and finally devised a strategem in which it produced in a selected portion of the demography...capable and willing to take effective remedial action...a state of being whose reaction to its own self-created pollution was so intense that it made all life short of complete environmental restoration either impossible or so painful that compliance was assured?

Is it possible that the Ghia could do that? Is that what environmental hypersensitization is?? And if it is, how would we know. And finally, what will we be forced to do????

And here's the rapier to the thorax...if you were the planet and wanted to select the most likely to get the message and do something about it...wouldn't you choose the healthiest...the most sensitive to do it with???

Every single E.I. I asked to describe the state of their immune system prior to thresholding said...and without exception in over 100 cases..."I was the one who never got sick."

It is of profound self-elevating effect for an E.I. to exit the "sicko" venue of self-definition, know they can recover and take new hope...even have a wonderful life. But it is of evolutionary, spiritual and historic vastness of destiny and cosmological effect that we could come to see ourselves as the harbingers selected to turn this nightmare of global, capitalist, greed, militaristic, nihalistic, venomous, egomaniacal, debased, putrid and patently assinine consumerism around to the end of a sane existence, a healthy environment, a vibrant sustainable economy and status of global spiritual harmony and grace.

Those of us who have survived the ravages of the Alpha Thresholds and have gone on to find good lives have almost without exception also abandoned the pathetic spiritual depravity of believing we are incapable of anything short of the miraculous and most of us are now insistent on that as a bottom line for delineating our meanings and continued existence.

What is very, very interesting to watch is the unexplainable increase in vibrance and health of the E.I. (most graphically, the Land Stewards) who dedicate their lives soley to sustainability, minimalist existence, natural integration and pro-stainable restoration of planetary health. They recieve themselves a level of well being and health that is very, very dificult to explain in any other way than a source as obvious, appreciative and immediate as the ground on which we stand.

The Avetar Phenomenon

Eastern Indian/ Vedic spirituality attaches a term...the Avatar...to identify the living body forms of a repetitively reincarnated diety. If there is a spirit or persona...it manifests into reality as an Avatar. (The details of spelling are changed here for reasons that will not be explained).

It may be useful to begin testing the basis of the Avetar Paradigm by identification of those personas and recognizing ourselves for the spirits that we may well be...if, indeed there is any spiritual origin to hypersensitivity (especially as a mass phenomenon) beyond the realm of individual metabolisms and environmental reactiveness.

In the junctures with profound belief system and spiritual changes...there can be proof of the vitality of any singular belief through one venue and one venue only...and that is the test of time.

We deduce it, we formulate it...we try it and we see.

Can you see yourself as a vehicle for change...on a plane far outreaching the spere of your own needs??

You Don't Need to Swallow the Whole Phenomenon to Relieve the Consumptive Belly Ache

The Changes a Shift to the Avetar Paradigm Can Make

The Dangers of Fixing an Immune System that isn't Broken

On the other side of widespread discounting and disbelief (even condemnation) in response to the hypersensitization phenomenon (now recognized by Social Security, the AMA, World Health Organization, the Veterans Administration and my Internet Service Provider)...is a growing industry of fix-it products all invariable based on the assumption that the E.I. is sick and something can be taken to make them better.

Herbal supplements, cell phone plastic anti-emf bubbles, magnets, pills, meditations, the list is sickeningly long and growing.

It has become with me...and so noticeably with other E.I.s ...a virtually knee jerk reaction to any offer of remedy that we barf. Eventually there often comes a retiscence even to reveal that you've undergone a threshold because the offer of another sure fire cure is sure to follow.

One of the singularly most important changes you might find in a change of perception sucn as adoption of the Avetar Paradigm is that it abandons quickly the idea that you should do anything to fix your immune system...mainly because there is not only nothing wrong with it...but also that it is a tool of direction and destiny and even if you could correct its indicator mechanism (which you will probably find you can't)...you shouldn't. It is the best tool we have for diagnosing a sick environment...and that diagnosis is the first step in survival...in which we fix the environment, not the E.I.

There are myriad E.I.s who attempt making a living off other E.I.s by peddling them algaes, herbs, chemical substances, chrystals and grotesque metalic neclaces which no one who knows about Chi, chakras, bio-energetics and metal objects would dream of wearing around their necks or over any accupressure point.

I have developed a quiet, but invariably revelatory technique for dealing with the substance peddling E.I...whose motives of care and cure are so shallow and invariably sales-pitch riddled. First, once they are identified, I avoid the question of what they're taking and ask them..."in the last year have your reactions gotten better or worse."

As predictable as the day is long, what will follow is a sad and depressive look of futility followed by a discertation of varying length regarding how much worse off they now are. To most, it has not occurred to them to compare progress over a long time frame.

Then, as if by devine innoculation...their eyes will brighten and the testimonial about the super new, scientifically proven mostly miracle green goop in amber plastic jars made from West Nile mud, squished dust mites and kosher pickle juice will begin...always, of course, ending in the timid admission that they are the sole regional distributor for this miraculous pyramid marketing scam. (There's usually a case of two of the stuff right outside in their car).

At the end of the spiel, they are visably enlivened and convinced beyond a doubt that this has fixed them.

I go home, write down their first status report and note the futility of attempting to fix an immune system that isn't broken. Copius notes to this effect are what, along with the querries of their states of immune health prior to thresholding were the foundational case study evidence which led to the formulation of the concept that something unseen was going on here.

The test of science is the effecation of productive results...which obviously are not forthcoming in the attempts to repair environmentally hypersensitized homo sapiens.

Once enough case studies of dramatic health improvement were found, all based on cleaning up the environment itself...the conclusion became very simple rocket science.

Don't fix something that isn't broken.

Actually, I have become convinced that you can probably kill yourself doing that.

The analogy that I make is to that of a smoke detector/ fire alarm...the kind in every tract home bedroom.

Instead of a detector above your sleeping area which is either quiet or screeching depending on the presence of any thresholding smoke...we have one with four alarm modes:

(a) the alarm is quiet and the environment is safe...sleep on.

(b) Someone has lit a match, burned a candle or a block away someone is burning leaves. The second stage alarm puts out the sound of a faint, but noticeable hum...not obnoxious at all.

(c) A third stage sound...that of a warning squeal...goes off when the toaster is burning, the fireplace is backing up or your teenager is smoking crack again...disturbing circumstances needing attention, but not life threatening.

(d) A full blown ear shattering shreik that would awaken the dead and one you cannot roll over and ignore...one that will force you out of the burning house whether you're in the middle of an erotic dream or not.

You'll find a treatise on The Alpha States of Environmental illness on the Smart Shelter website. It basically describes 4 levels of immune hypersensitivity working in exactly the same way as this new smoke detector which can be used very accurately in diagnosing the relative threat posed by escallating levels of environmental degredation...energetic and chemical.

The more sensitized an E. I. becomes, the louder and more painful the immune system's shreik. Ignore the flaming toaster and your kitchen will probably burn.

What do you suppose happens when your neighbor is burning leaves next door, doesn't douse the fire at nite, the wind shifts to spread the flame up your bedroom wall and you're having sex with the ministers stacked teenage daughter in your dreams blissfully unaware of the raging holocaust because you filled your smoke alarm battery chamber with immune rebuilding super new, scientifically proven mostly miracle green goop in amber plastic jars made from West Nile mud, squished dust mites and kosher pickle juice?

I have some ideas...but you don't need to believe them...pop the cover on that puppy, fill it up and lets see.

 

The Absolute Imperative of Consumptive Minimilization and the Pro-Stainable Imperitive

The Avetar Paradigm and the Victim Role of EIs

Caroline Metzler, in retrospect, was probably the first key to my identification and subsequent climb back out of the morass of a collapsed life and health crisis...13 years ago...yikes, could it be that long???

Caroline is one of those dynamically transitional beings and has since moved on to become an astounding artist and from the child like glee she garners from mention of her art...we can be pretty well assured that art is exactly where she needs to be.

At the time, however, she was a practicing accupuncturist and Chinese herbalist...which she approached with the uncanny expertise, study, integrity and determination which is so characteristic of her life. She is the one who first described to me the sources and levels of toxification, the symptoms of maddening complexity and the various modalities out of the morass.

Many years later, at the conclusion of that era of her practice and then having myriad cases under her belt to draw surmising diagnosis from, she pretty much put the EI syndrome in a nutshell...albiet limited to the place we all would be at that time...by saying (herself included...Caroline is an alpha 2 chemical EI)..."Everyone I've treated has a victim mentality."

The same general consensus about the real basis of Environmental Hyper-reactivity can be found from about as many different sources (EI and not) as you'd care to address. It's your attitude, fears, paranoias, hypertension, stress, perception...whatever.

I've gone down that road, not just once, and along with probably every other intelligent and self aware EI as well as those who watch us day to day.

The paranoia phenomenon associated with hypersensitization is very real. I use it as a diagnostic tool, it is so predictable.

So is the psychosomatic phenomenon. I play a game with a severe Alpha 2 EI I know...almost as a form of demonic delight...certainly out of impatience.. I'll engage her in conversation while she's in a good and unreative state. Then I'll point out something in the proximity and as her if she's heard about how it is now known to contain formaldehyde. One of her classic reactions is to redden her face to a rudy and unhealthy glow...when there are real or imagined toxins in the environ. She will react immediatly, just at the thought of formaldehyde.

Rising of the Avetar to the Zenith of Leadership

Hypersensitivity Focus and Instruments of Global Deterioration

There appears to be an invariable and interesting correlation between the sources of escallating hypersensitization and their concomitant contribution (especially as an industry and a consumer market) to global environmental deterioration. Is this a voice speaking? Is this the justice of an unseen, but increasingly insistent guilding hand?? Are the bold-faced subject heads which follow actually the writing on the wall???

En Terra Science lets you be the one to decide.

Chemicals

EMF-Electro/Magnetic Fields

This most mysterious, invisable and conjectural phenomenology (unknown to monday sports fanatics...but quite well known in the physics community) has arrisen in the last few decades...begining in this culture singularly with the work of Dr. Robert O. Becker, Md...as the sylibus to causality not only of the functunal universe, but of life itself.

The Bio-Energetic Anatomy...what would be left if we subtracted all tangeable substance from your physiology??? What does the electrical and magnetic energy shadow of your life form look like and how does it work?? More poignantly, how does it drive literally all of the material parts of your body...the endocrine glands, brain, muscles, heart...all of it.

You think it doesn't??? Have a heart attack and watch them hook you up to an EKG. Have a brain tumor and they will wire you to an EEG. Muscular dysfunction??? That one gets an EMG. What are all those devices? They are sensitive and sophisticated machines, electronics, for tracking what medical science has known (but pathetically failed to utilize) as the driving force of all nature...the electrical impulses, brain waves, nerve impulses, gland signals...which are our steering wheels and anatomical sensing systems.

What happens when you introduce this fragile and sophisticated electrical physiology to the micro-wave digital radiation emf from a cell phone, a wifi, a flourescent light balast, a moving car, your wide screen tv, the electron cannons in standard tube computer screens??? Guacamole...that's what.

The irony is that shielding these devices, avoidance through minimalization...and in the cases of cell phones...complete international bans on technologies which never should have been let out of the cage in the first place and are now so vastly documented worldwide as carcinogenic and immune depressive (not to mention so consistently destructive to the social fabric thanks to the media driven panic of the moron level consumer)...this competent shielding is so simple and cheap.

But on the other hand, in an era of drasitic need for selective population reduction targeted at the gullable and expendable which generated their categoric demise (especially with the combination of cell phone immune depression and the rising spectre of panepidemics like the avian flu)...maybe we better just quietly define some cell-safe spaces (like our libraries) and let them go about underwriting their own demise undisturbed.

There is without a doubt, a natural, global emf system...it pulses at 7 beats per second and is the foundation stone of all our neurophysiology, brain wave systems and life forces. Contaminating that electro-magnetic field system, now 6 billion years imbedded in our evolution to the point of creating phenomenon like cell-phone carcinoma and communication hysteria might just eventually become a source of unreconcileable irritation to a global entity...or not...(it's your belief system...maybe).

Why, then, concomitant with the latest wave in digital radiation technology...wireless communication...electrification of everything (including adolescent addictive behavior)...why has this been greeted with an epidemic of now diagnosable and increasingly obvious hypersensitization of electro-magnetic fields...for which there is no remedy except avoidance, protection and removal?

Even deeper as a metaphysical question is the stunning evidence that populations hypersensitizing to emf and those hypersensitizing to chemicals have at minimum, a 50% demographic overlap. I would place that coincidence, through about 500 case studies regionally at closer to 80% and as we refine our diagnostic screening thechniques, we may come to see them as different identies of the same phenomenon...that is, a 100% correlation

Explain this one.

Empowerment and the Avetar Paradigm

Any percieved debilitation or inflicted limitation carries with it the threat of victimization and loss of personal empowerment. E.I. is no exception...especially in light of the vast lack of knowledge and recognition of the phenomenon and the concomitant denegration and discounting of those who undergo thresholds and the excruciating changes it brings with it.

On the other hand, adoption of an elevating belief system (such as the Avetar Paradigm) is a double edged sword...adding potential bouyancy to help the E.I. change the light in which they see themselves and turn the sensitization phenomenon into an assed..but at the added threat of ego inflation.

The disasterous consequences of empowering greed, selfishness, environmental degradation and overt usary warfare on innocent states brought about by the capitalist/consumer/corporate paradigm is as poignant and example of this peril as possible to imagine. Its legacy is monday nite football, atvs, cell phones and monsanto...hardly recommendations for anything except an intelligent hit list.

None the less, the phenomenology of a changed perception from that of a debilitated victim of widespread chemical and bio-energetic contamination to that of a harbinger of a new and saner era whose sensitivities should (and will) be used as guideposts for the directions of culture, business, industry and environmentalism in the future is profound...albiet quite a surprise for most

Changes of points of view, tenants of belief and basis of identity and purpose may actually be among the most powerful weapons homo sapiens possess. We have thought...therefore, the way we choose to use it is singularly our most poignant empowerment.

Try for a week changing your belief every time you see a particular obstacle from being irritated and victimized about it (which is to believe there is nothing you could or should do about it...except apply more tolerance)...to that of believing that your objection to it is the invective for a spiritually ordered necessity for it to change.

You may find the results stunning. I certainly have.

Another way of looking at hypersensitization...especially once it is a non-rescindable reality...is that it is and will remain to be...exactly what you make of it....an asset or a liability. The question (for me at least) is not which, but how.

Can we assign ourselves destiny??? Is it maleable through our beliefs. If we tailor and carve our beliefs, do they become our realities...through redirection of our choices, intents and actions. There are a lot of spiritual guidelines from a lot of different sources that insist that this is exactly the case.

It is rare, if not impossible, to find a positive lite in which to place the categorically complete dismantling of health, career, home, family, societal standing, savings, viability in 99% of man-made environments, reaction to virtually anything on any shelf in the conventional super market. But the Avetar Paradigm might do exactly that.

The test of any model or theory is experimental results. It's only verification as truth or fact lies in its ability to enable prediction of results and remedy of malady. As in all of En Terra Science, it does you no good for me, a doctor, a social worker or a guru to know what will fix you. It only works if you know that for yourself, and the only way you can know that is to devise a testing time and strategy and fly it...then evaluate the results.

The changes in how I see myself (after 15 years grappling with this supposed malady) are profound beyond the capacity for writing or words to express. Part of that shortcoming may be because the essence of this change is at a profound spiritual level and the exhileration of freedom from victimization and the dawning of positive beleif regarding what is happening to me and why are so earth moving that their essence originates on a deep psychic and emotional level (albiet a deeply spiritual one) in whose reaches there are no works...only feeling and intuitive senses of purpose and direction.

For lack of any better definition of a power greater than myself, I'll settle for that one. How about you? If that is the source of power, then wouldn't the result of ingesting it be called empowerment?

We can play around with these word games forever.

A bunch of us trying this on and comparing results down the road is actually the only thing we can do to find out...right???

What It Means About Our Role in Society

The Invectives to Minimalism

There are, of course, innumerable common denomenators between E.I.s. Nome, however, may be so consistent, poignant or surprisingly transformative than that of its tendency to drive the subject deeper and deeper into pro-stainability and minimalist lifestyle.

The typical beginning scenario is that of one who is, by and large, successful, accumulative and consequently bulletproof in terms of career, health, savings, status and performance.

Within a very short period of time...invariably less than a year and sometimes as little as a few months...performance capacity vanishes (in bed and standing up), careers crumble, savings are quickly devoured, medical bills skyrocket (with little or no results), reputation vanishes, friends disappear, earning capacity drops below zero, retirement funds and investments/savings are eaten in the desperation to survive...and existence within the common structures and workplaces seen as status and comfort in contemporary (over) consumer socienty become impossible.

It sometimes seems (and may very well be) that we become allergic not just to the proliferation of insideous synthetic petroleum based chemicals that produce such bizaar reactions in us, but to consumerism, convention, accumulation and insulation as well.

As in all modalities of diagnosis and recovery...the best analogy to explain human existence is that of the onion skin layers as symbol to the myriad levels of our existence...spiritual, emotional, mental, psychic, physical, bio-energetic. If we sicken on any one level with a certain symptom, every other level will develope a correlary malady...with the result that we end up holding a bag of very nasty chirping maladies.

It isn't rocket science to take any limited resource origin (like the planet or any drainage basin) populate it with a species which proliferates in exponential numbers and compound the resource depletion rate with a sickness that leaves each successive generation with a per capital consumption, polution and destruction level several times that of the previous...and to arrive at a desaster scenario.

That may not be rocket science, but its insideousness in populare insulating belief system and thought is exactly equivalent to the commonly share belief system among lemings that fur means you can float forever.

If there was, or is, a power greater than ourselves, who wished to look after a planet it may or may not have created, all the species on it and in particular the one most hellbent on mutual anhialation, wouldn't it follow...given the infinite (or at least grandios) powers within its grasp to effect productive change...that it just might take note of the situation, issue a hundred years of caring warnings and when the corporate, consumer, republican, conservative, nazi, fascist, wealth consumed elite failed to heed...it devised a system including a reinforced and unrescindable methodology for enforced sanity in terms of individual consumption levels, welfare of the biosphere, sanity of the practitionser and spiritually elevating pro-stainability...maybe even through minimalism.

Whether or not this is the case...(and all our belief systems are self-constructed and volitional)...it is a fact that advanced environmental allergenic thresholding invariably brings with it.

The number of E.I.s I know living in cars, in desperate flight of escalating pollution and in constant quest for relieving environmental purity as the only peaceful and comfortable times their lives now afford are vast. Every single one of them has a success story-embellished past.

The desperate attempts to arrive at domestic (let alone...workplace) safety has produced half-million dollar artifical living environments with regimented construction standards and air filtration strategies that do, indeed, enlist rocket science, hermetically sealed compartments, trailers lines with aluminum and ceramic interiors, off-grid converted trailers, scrubbed mountain cabins borrowed from friends...and the back seats of a ramshackle fleet of vans, cars and whatnot.

Elsewhere in this work is discussed The Micro Habitat, which has been developed to an extent and time tested to a degree to convincingly prove (at least to the E.I.s who own them) that radical minimalization of the space you think you need to confortably live, the invective that any sane and safe E.I. living environment must be moveable (to vanish when the neighborhood environment toxifies) and, once adapted into the E.I. lifestyle can quickly prove that the most unlikely of places and conditions can and will produce the only viability attainable to the beliguered and impacted.

By and large, money can't buy the solution to a phenomenology fueled by consumption itself. It's very interesting to watch the well-heeled why threshold into E.I. throw wads of dough at air filters, green products, designer clothes and trips to Machu Pichu with wannabe gurus to the end that their desperation continues to deepen and their hope vanishes.

It is equivalently interesting to watch the 50 year old, gray haired grandmother of three from a southern baptist conservative Oklahoma family suddenly diagnosed with EMF hypersensitization, endure 6 months without sleep, transit a complet physical collapse, loose job, apartment, family support (except for an angelic mother...god bless them), incur the discounting and retalitory wrath of employers, doctors, governmental support agencies and society...spend a winter with three cats in the back seat of a miniature car hiding on public land...find herself two years later building her own micro, petting the purring cats, living in an array of pieces of paradise money in any amount cannot attain, vibrantly glowing, learning new trades and enjoying a fulfillment and energetic health she has never found before.

Her living space went from 800 square feet to 120 (interestingly enough, exactly the Micro Threshold), her cost of living went from $18,000 per year to less than 10. All but a small storage space of meaningless consumer accumulations have been sold, given away or burned. The self-constraining barriers of association, propriety, relationship with the land and limited purpose in life are shattered...and her photographic art work (the real center of her life) has blossomed along with her exit through the keyhole of E.I. existence.

Is this the scenario that might define an Avetar...someone who at age 50 undergoes a catharsis to the extent that her new persona is virtually unrecognizable to the previous. That her life is now dedicated and inextricably tied to the land, the purity of environment, advocacy, unconditional help for E.I.s who seek it and a spirital traslation to a gamut prior to her threshold certainly unimaginable.

She got all of this by losing everything. She found out how to be happy by abandoning all her material and idiological constraints. She maintains them with an uncanny intimation of guidance and care...as long as minimalization and direct, pro-stainable effort is effected as part of her daily routine in care for the healing of the land which is the source of the healing she has recieved.

The concept of constant growth, ceaseless improvement, garnered wealth...are the mantras of idiots. How many times are these lessons perveyed by spiritual icons...including our own...only to have their following usurped and their messages consistently trashed for the benifit of the rich?

It isn't working...is it????

And what else is happening???

The biosphere sickens, the environment reels, the air reeks, the populace sickens, the medical regimens and industry fail...and a small, growing and dramatically-willing-to-change sub group comes through the keyhole and flourishes...some of them.

Actually, relatively few of them. Which is why the Avetar Paradigm may be so important as a key.

Bolstering a supposedly damaged immune system with designer herbs and new age wo wo doesn't work. Neither do the mindnumbing chemicals of conventional alapathic medicine. Stringency in diet, elimitation of pollution exposure, adoption of minimalism and pro-active work for the betterment of the environment seem to.

Can they for you??? Will they prevent a collapse for those wise and daring enough to self-enforce them prior to a threshold??? Does this paradigm carry through in greater numbers...which is probably the only real test of its veracity.

Like all of En Terra Science...there are no answers for you that come from anywhere else. What there are may be informed and inciteful questions, an array of accurate cases to draw your own conclusions from and a necessity...mandated by circumstance and destiny, if nothing else...for you to venture forth into a future only you can create.

But in these handful of incidents, I have seen the only consistent and explainable solution to the disasters of hypersensitization which places it in a reasonable, testable and positive light.

Is this the paradigm in which either we take responsibility and effect reasonable levels of consumptive destruction...and pro-stainable lifestyle and actions...or as a species...we're piles of dinasaur turds in a very stinkey swamp looking up at a darkening sky at a very large flaming ball of molten rock headed straight at Cancum.

Grab your bootstraps, baby...this just may be the last great ride.

Avetar and the Micro Threshold

We can do Anything We Want...

Starting with a belief that our lives, neighborhoods and planet are contaminated to an extent we cannot fix is as self-sabatoging as our original belief that there was something wrong with our immune systems and we were doomed to a life of misery.

Both are boloney

Not only can we do anything we need to do, but if I'm not mistaken, we may very well have no other choice.
