janhoglundA mighty imagination animates the relationship between earth and those who work it. This imagination opens up when we feel the aliveness of the forms of nature all about us: the colors, the textures, the sounds, the rhythms of growth and decay, the shapes. These speak to our imagination because they live in the imaginal, or rather the imaginal lives in them. This is what the artist in each one of us connects with. Out of this connection comes our poetry, our song and sculpture, our drama and ritual and painting… —Mary C.

janhoglund“What's wrong with our world … is that we have allowed our whole world to be dead. We imagine it as lifeless so we can we can bring our microscopes and our instruments to study it. But it is dead. It has no soul. It has no principle of life. It has no intention. … It's just there and…we can't relate to it. We can only operate on it and do things with it, and exploit it. I think that's what's killing…people, seeing that the world around us is dead. How can you live then? … You have no guidance. You have no support. … You can't walk in the woods and feel that you really are, really know, that you're in a community with the trees and the plants. You can't know that if your scientific worldview…objectifies that world and makes it lifeless. So that, I think, is one of our huge problems. If you have that world alive, you can listen to it every day. You're not going to be lost because you'll get guidance without any problem.” —Thomas Moore <a href="https://youtu.be/CxUEQwi47mQ?feature=shared&t=2817" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/CxUEQwi47mQ?feature=shared&t=2817</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/thomasmoore" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#thomasmoore</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/life" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#life</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglundYou wander through the forest, carrying all your questions, and your senses are piqued to find the answers. Yet, you have no thought in your mind as you move. Your instincts guide you. You are quiet inside, poised and ready. … You are nature. You are wild. You are fully alive and expressed. —Jon Young & Tiffany Morgan, Animal Tracking Basics <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/tracking" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tracking</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglundThe qualities of aliveness expressed in the physical patterns of our homes and communities, communicate a message that can be silent to our ears, but loud to our intuitions. —Duane Elgin, Choosing Earth <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/thequalitywithoutaname" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#thequalitywithoutaname</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglundAliveness is a term for “the quality that has no name”: a sense of wholeness, spirit, or grace, that while of varying form, is precise and verifiable in our direct experience. —Christopher Alexander, The Timeless Way of Building <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/thequalitywithoutaname" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#thequalitywithoutaname</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglundIf we are looking at aligning to aliveness that then includes a moment that's absolutely necessary of being present to what's actually here – and then having that courage to feel what's around us... –Stephanie Wang <a href="https://youtu.be/MaeD9zWYIJw?t=1082" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/MaeD9zWYIJw?t=1082</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglundEvery aspect of life is transformed when we honor the aliveness that's at the foundation of the universe. –Duane Elgin <a href="https://youtu.be/MaeD9zWYIJw?t=996" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/MaeD9zWYIJw?t=996</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/life" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#life</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglundWe are a part of this aliveness. ... Now that changes everything in life. For example,...what is the business that furthers...an opening to the world, to reality, to life? –Duane Elgin <a href="https://youtu.be/MaeD9zWYIJw?t=916" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/MaeD9zWYIJw?t=916</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglundMy feeling is we've been dead too long. Let's come back to life. Let's let's wake up to the aliveness that surrounds us, that is within us, and beyond us. –Duane Elgin <a href="https://youtu.be/MaeD9zWYIJw?t=395" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/MaeD9zWYIJw?t=395</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/thrivability" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#thrivability</a>

janhoglundYou said something like we have to fight for life… It's like this exuberance of being alive that constantly challenges the confines that we have constructed around ourselves. –Charles Eisenstein <a href="https://youtu.be/0Qo0ODiOsmY?t=2183" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/0Qo0ODiOsmY?t=2183</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/eisenstein" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eisenstein</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglund”…besides merely reading this, you’re invited to taste what it means to actually be Life, to live as Life’s aliveness, rather than knowing information about Life.” <a href="https://excellencereporter.com/2017/11/26/peter-dziuban-the-meaning-of-life-is-alive/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://excellencereporter.com/2017/11/26/peter-dziuban-the-meaning-of-life-is-alive/</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/life" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#life</a>

janhoglundIn sharing our aliveness, we enrich the life of others. We awaken their sense of aliveness by sharing our own experience of being alive in the moment. We do not share with the intention of receiving something from others; instead, the sharing itself is a gift of ourselves that awakens a reciprocal aliveness in others, returning us in a mutually enhancing flow. —Duane Elgin, Choosing Earth <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglundThe goal of life is not happiness, peace, or fulfillment, but aliveness. —Blaise Pascal <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglundDon’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive. —Howard Thurman <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglundPeople say that what we’re all seeking is a meaning for life. I don’t think that’s what we’re really seeking. I think that what we’re seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances with our own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive. —Joseph Campbell & Bill Moyers, The Power of Myth <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglundWhen our personal aliveness becomes transparent to the aliveness of the living universe, experiences of wonder and awe emerge naturally. …we feel more at home, less self-absorbed, more empathy for others, and an increased desire to be of service to life. —Duane Elgin, Choosing Earth: Humanity's Journey of Initiation Through Breakdown and Collapse to Mature Planetary Community <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglund“Is there an experience of life so widely shared that it can draw us together in a common journey to a thriving future?” The answer is a straightforward “Yes.” Beneath our many differences, we all share the experience of simply being alive… —Duane Elgin, Choosing Earth: Humanity's Journey of Initiation Through Breakdown and Collapse to Mature Planetary Community <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>

janhoglundWe now confront the paradox of great impoverishment as the cost of material abundance. We are killing ourselves. The destruction of eco-systems pushes us to remember our earliest understanding of existence and to reclaim its ethical foundation: If the world around us is alive, then our mature task is to extend conscious care to all that is living and to treat it with great respect. —Duane Elgin, Choosing Earth: Humanity's Journey of Initiation Through Breakdown and Collapse to Mature Planetary Community <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.microblog.se/tag/aliveness" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aliveness</a>
