Also, I missed you asking about sharing what I found.
Permaculture was the gateway into the world of what is possible. Consider, for example, the 3 permaculture ethical principles:
- Care of Earth
- Care of People
- Fair Share
This is all voluntary. It’s not about making people change, or changing the masses.
The design principles shows a way of decentralizing food production in a way that is more resilient, adaptive, and also works with the culture (and not just the technologies or methods, hence “perma-culture”)Although the two people who originally put this together doesn’t address Consciousness or spirituality, I have found that these design principles can lead to way of life that has room and integrates cultivation of consciousness.
That also lead me to Carol Sanford. You look around at articles and podcast, and then at some point, you see her mentioned all over the place in the permaculture world.
