WHAT’S ALL THE NOISE ABOUT?
As we acknowledge Big Bang
our voyage through eternity begins.
Accepting that single origin of all energy,
we can sense each animation as an original
in inter-dependence with all earth’s kith and kin.
There are known and unknown details of reality.
We are humbled, even awed, by Big Bang’s burst into life,
allowing us to sense privilege, our sense of stewardship
of a tiny vital passage, just one human lifetime,
within spirit/energy’s all-embracing, ever-creative, flow.
All this allows us to reimagine and redesign life on earth,
noting in July 22 James Lovelock’s passing at 103.
That bold, perceptive pioneer of the ‘Gaian’ explanation
of all above as channelled through the sun,
locating humanity and our kith and kin in a sacred setting
The universe is the primary revelation of the divine, the primary scripture,
the primary locus of divine-human communion. (Thomas Berry)

In response to the draft thoughts, ‘ What Is This Noise About’, that I sent you I received several valuable reflections. Among them was this profound reflection from Claudius van Wyk, which he has agreed I could send on.
I addressed James Lovelock in this on-line Holos presentation on human rights which I offered on my birthday 26th July, which I share with him: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/human-rights-responsibilities-21st-century-claudius-van-wyk/ – Claudius
It so happened that James Lovelock, at 103, died on that day. His basic theory, ‘Gaia’, is profoundly formative in our rising consciousness, whatever we make of Cyborgs! Please find time to read it. And of course private or open comments are warmly welcomed.
