Description

In this episode, Chetna shares: The Chetna Unfolding newsletter where she’s been publishing more recently about longing and depression as portals, second arrow suffering, the addiction to binary thinking, and more Ahimsa and nonviolence, and the confusing contemplation about what peace means today The day count and loss of 30,000 Palestinian lives, 1,400 Israeli lives, and uncountable plant and animals lives taken by genocide An introduction of Hawah Kasat, an award-winning educator, community organizer and yogi among other things HawaH talking about “negative peace” and “positive peace” How the negative/positive peace binary helps her understand to some degree, but also has its limitations HawaH talking about the nuance of nonviolence Binary-thinking as a strategy to make quick moves in a panic The illusionary clarity of binary-thinking that leaves little room for nuance and complexity How relying on panic to carry us forward f*cks us over even more by fueling even more panic and suffering. The distracting suffocating binary of enough and not enough in regards to our activism The present-traumatic stress caused by over-consuming media How there is no one-right way and to believe and assert on others that there is one right way to think, to be, to act right now may be a perpetuation of domination and separation The inquiry: “how can I expect to steward- from my dysregulated nervous system- a New Earth that’s wholly different from the one built by dysregulated nervous systems?” The inquiry: “how can I- and we- be influences of change in the world without perpetuating colonial cultures of separation and domination?” The inquiry: “how can I expect to disrupt the cycles of trauma and fear when I’m acting from my trauma and fear?” Her desire to normalize when and what we don’t actually know…and to open to the possibilities of connection and healing in that unknown.
