I can only shake my head at some of the issues in the greater political sphere today.
NSA has collected tens of millions of phone records.
Bush challenged hundreds of laws
Not to mention the various stories of politization of policy, based on ideology.
Now, despite what is happening out in the wide world, bringing oneself, BACK to center, back to breathing, back to silence - the day is beautiful, this moment - and this moment, and this moment, are experienced as Perfect.
So - what's the correct response, if anything, to stories such as this?
Category error, is the biggest issue here, for a spiritual person. What is God's, what is the world's? What is the spiritual and integral response, if anything?

Hi eBuddha,
I'm angry and I'm spooked over today's news about the NSA. So, nonattachment/nonaversion is out the window for me at the moment. Damn it, I'm furious. Regarding an integral response, what we have is a command-and-control, conformist group in power. Blue meme stuff. Perhaps if we defended the fourth amendment in blue meme language, some of Bush's base would listen and wake up. Is there a way to do that? Anyone? Regarding a spiritual response, perhaps we can learn from Viktor Frankl's experience in an internment camp. Because more and more, it looks like that's the kind of place where we're heading.
