Here we delve into cosmic consciousness and the ways humans differentiate themselves, but also the ways humans intertwine with one another to think without analysis or awareness around consequences. The glee of individuating comes up in the form of Jonathan Livingston Seagull's joy at being a wave within the ocean of heaven on earth. Various species besides human may also be viewed in this sense as seen in the collective nouns given to animal groupings such as a "shrewdness of apes". A call to action to urge your state representatives in the US to sponsor HR-40 also rises. The episode concludes with a micro meditation to affirm and practice our ability to think for ourselves in this wide world. How do we find ourselves within the larger whole? How do we handle fear and doubt around being cast out? How do we celebrate our great ability to be one with all and also ourselves with self-care, self-compassion and self-acceptance? #groupthink, #purusha, #prakriti, #HR-40, #shadow, #individuation, #collective
