Summary

The website content discusses the concept of reconciliation and the role of reconcilers in fostering peace and harmony amidst cultural divisiveness, drawing from the author's personal experiences and philosophical insights.

Abstract

The article "Forging Peace: journey of the reconcilers" delves into the author's transition from experimental filmmaking to recognizing the subtle energies that exist between individuals, which led to a deeper understanding of human relationships. The narrative emphasizes the importance of reconcilers, who are individuals dedicated to resolving conflicts and promoting unity, often working behind the scenes for the greater good without seeking recognition. The author reflects on the societal challenges of binary thinking, hyper-competitiveness, and divisiveness, particularly highlighted during the Trump era, and advocates for a shift towards infinite games where the focus is on collective well-being rather than individual victory. The text introduces the Law of Three, which includes the reconciling force as essential for balance, and cites the work of Hans Rosling and his team on "Factfulness" to illustrate the progress of humanity beyond divisive biases. The article concludes by encouraging the recognition and navigation of the energy between people to foster commonality and peace.

Forging Peace

journey of the reconcilers

In late ’80s I was making experimental films and videos. One such fictional video was done by a group of friends from improvisational acting classes about emotional intimacy.

The take-away from this piece as the director taught me about relationships. In shooting scenes between two actors I found that when I focused on one or the other’s performance — that they acted for me and not with the other person. Instead I focused on the space between the two actors. They improvised with and for one another. The camera and I were merely observers.

After that I began to notice the energy between people by opening my heart and intuition. In 2001 I fell in-love. One of our hobbies was dining out and covertly reading the relational energy between couples and families at the restaurant. As a result of that and my avocation as an interdimensional healer I began to see with my “physical eyes” the patterns of energy between people. It was faintly reminiscent of van Gogh’s paintings, particularly “Starry Night” except without color. The energy appeared as translucent patterns in the air through consciously blurring my vision. My partner did not see what I saw, but she could feel their energy in a different way.

The Problem of Divisiveness that Besets our Culture

We live in an epoch of binary thinking, money as a primary value, increasing divisiveness, hyper-competitiveness, predatory capitalism in the patriarchy following its logical extremes [1].

When Trump was elected even before he was sworn-in the divisiveness became more obvious. On social media both through the natural proclivities of Americans and the manipulations of both social media and foreign powers, divisiveness infected nearly everyone, myself included. It brought-up an old self of mine. And I DIDN’T LIKE THAT ME. I withdrew from the us versus them and instituted a mission to civilize on social media.

Possible Solutions or a Way Out of Divisiveness aka Forging Peace

Often, we are blind to the people behind the scenes that work / support solutions tirelessly. We rarely hear about them. They don’t usually seek credit because their aim is not about self-aggrandizement. They are about whatever aim or goal they wish for the greater good.

We are often taught (in America) that the greatest good is about who has the most money. Isn’t this contrary to what we feel in our hearts about the bonds between members of our communities? We know they are not about famous people. They often belong to those who play infinite games [2]. Infinite games are not about winning or losing, but represent the non-zero-sum game where there are no winners or losers. Infinite games are played continuously and the play is its own reward.

These people could be called reconcilers — restorers of harmony, resolving differences, surrendering positions as united by the common good for all. Reconcilers are part of the trinity or law of three [3]. The Law of Three briefly stated:

1. The Yin / Female — the receptive force

2. The Neutral / No Gender — reconciling force

3. The Affirming / Male — the active force

Without the Neutral / Reconciling Force the Active and Receptive Forces would annihilate each other in the world of physics.

Hans Rosling, “front man” or one of three authors of the book FACTFULLNESS. Hans Rosling, his son — Ola Rosling and his daughter-in-law Anna Rosling Rönnlund are equally — the authors. The book documents the advancements of humankind and seeks to diminish / eliminate the binary divisive bias that the world holds: it’s either good or bad et cetera. He and the team — reconcilers — utilize statistics from the UN to help paint a different picture of the world than I had and many others have too. If you need the hard facts about the betterment of the world this is it.

Reconcilers enjoy play in The Rainbow of Possibilities

Reconciler force is about the energy in-between two or more people.

It is the third person — an embodiment of energy between us that is a being — composite or embodiment of at least two people in relationship. The more intimate the relationship the greater the being of love.

This in-between energy belongs to a greater oneness blended with the divine at its highest vibration.

The first step is recognizing that the in-between energy exists and feeling it. The second step is navigating the tight-rope between the integrity of our self and the being energy in-between us. And the third step is setting an aim to bring people, ideas, and commonality into play between opposing factions for the common good in arenas small, medium and big.
