And now we are still impregnated by superfluous firmness of our logic statements. In the meantime our salvation evidently consists in, so to speak, poetization of our relation to reality and in such way getting more real-thinking participants of World-salvation-process (that, by the way is in itself poetically enough too. Interesting is that in this case we, being deep-rooted rationalists, rather have inclination to take for granted the moving off the optimal solution of world problem, that is to be more rational, widening our intentions to needed volume and size to be actually holistic ecologists or environmentalists. May be, World is violated namely by such a tendency? May be non-violence, which is our target, must begin from abolishment of fallacious philosophy of life and probably only seemingly correct foundations of our opinions?
Judging from what I hear as an answer (that is its absence), this subject is as-if-alien or not sufficiently "own one" for many others that are hearing here exclusively what they anticipate but do not opt investigation of all territory of discussion.
One of renown contemporary traveler Russian Vitaliy Sundakov, which has been contrived to survive and 'to friendly socialize' somewhere, as it seems, among the serious troglodytes of South America and some exotic islands, as well as to achieve many other truly miraculous results in his profession, is internationally appreciated as an outstanding specialist in the domain of survival. He many times highly successfully has been demonstrated his almost magic abilities, leaving for whatever place "on the globe" penniless, without any outfit and even minimum food supply, having... no visa not to mention albeit worthless old little gun. And every time he returned home he was always safe and sound. What is the reason? He insists: "Philosophy!" Using his extraordinary long-standing experience he prepared a draft of his future book, which was ordered by a famous publishing house. But... Here I am forced to be a little immodest (what we are not ready to do for the sake of truth!) and tell what was happened: he took away his typescript and application, because he read over my book on educative philosophy. (I omit complimentary words) Next to nothing: philosophy! But namely survival-professional assumes that everything he does to survive is some kind of internal experiences, cluster of principles, nexus of super-ideas...
You, who till now prolongs his keeping mum, when I make what only is possible to attract live attention of people concerned with the same problem of survival but widened this time to the world scope.
First of all, I, as one that in the whole fully equals (being not a bit better!) to anyone else on the planet Earth, must be 'sustainable' for It, for She. And this part of our work is waiting in the depth of us for attention.
