Some quick and inadequate observations:

- Resist beginnings. My thought too. To resist middles and ends is futile.

- As in martial arts we win by yielding. Universally stopping resistance might disorient our opponents more than would continued resistance.

- What is really revolutionary is worldwide unity of purpose (if we could figure out what that would entail).

- A self organizing system.may, of necessity, depend as much on culture and psychology as on thermodynamics. How do you exclude anything from a self organizing system?

- There can be no single, local solutions. Solutions must be global and in line with the self organizing system

- Resistance is not so much resistance as it is appropriate self actualization. It is therefore a lot like art. It is more the beauty of your creation than your resistance to its nemesis that matters.

- It is part of the human condition never to know our destiny. We exist on a razor's edge...eternally.

- Art is the way--we're charged with making a good work of art, the value or success of which is judged through the self organizing system.

- The balance of aesthetic intuition with facts and reason is perhaps our best way to proceed.

- Aesthetic intuition and spiritual understanding are closely allied.
