We Are All Fukushima



David Rainoshek, creator of http://www.juicefeasting.com/ has authored an important new report called We Are All Fukushima. This report delivers "an integral perspective on the meanings and promises of disaster."

It is an advanced look at the cultural and spiritual causes behind Fukushima and other disasters

In this groundbreaking report, David Rainoshek asks the question, "Where does the problem of Fukushima really exist?"

It's not just at the nuclear power facility, it turns out. This disaster — as with many other disasters — egins in the hearts and minds of modern humankind. To explain his perspective, David Rainoshek, an avid student of philosopher Ken Wilbur, cites the Great Chain of Being and the roots of our the worldview and human values.

His report also asserts that science is the domain of "external truth" that often ignores the far more important inner truths from which any lasting science must spring. "Science without religion is lame," Albert Einstein once said. He followed it up with "...religion without science is blind." This quote invokes an integral approach to understanding both the fabric of reality around us as well as the apparent events that take place within that fabric.

It also warns that human civilization moving forward guided only by science but not a more integral understanding of our role in the universe is a path fraught with peril. [source]

So, always remember when pointing a finger, that there are always 3 pointing back at you.

We Are All Fukushima.

Excerpt from WAAF:
We are all becoming increasingly aware of the Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear power plant disaster in Japan. Fukushima, 40 years old, is among the largest nuclear facilities in the world. It was designed by General Electric and built by GE and Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) on the Ring of Fire, one of the most seismically violent areas on the planet. In fact, it was built at the site of four notable earthquakes:
the 7.2 magnitude Meiji Sanriku earthquake of 1896 which caused a 103-foot tsunami killing 22,000 people; and three magnitude 8.0-plus quakes in the Fukushima area in 1793, 1677 and 1611. On March 11, 2011 Japan suffered a record-breaking 9.0 earthquake off its eastern shore. A 46-foot tsunami easily overcame the 25-foot concrete retaining wall of Fukushima-Daiichi, taking out the power systems, backup diesel generators and pumps at the nuclear facility, all of which are necessary to circulate waters to keep cool the six massive reactors and the seven pools of approximately 600,000 spent nuclear fuel rods.
Today I am going to present a series of perspectives on how humanity has arrived at such a disastrous position, why we are all partially responsible (not just the Japanese, or G.E., or industrial contractors, or military personnel, or governments), and what this enormous event means: Fukushima is not just an exterior or physical meltdown event to be contained (entombed), but an interior cultural and personal crisis which provides an opportunity for evolutionary development and healing both individually and globally.

In short, Fukushima is arising as both a disaster area, and potentially as hallowed sacred ground, should we choose to treat it as such.

These evolutionary, transformative Life Practices will be physical, dietary, mental, emotional, spiritual, interpersonal, economic, and ecological, and will contribute to a depth of meaning and human expression worthy of our continued existence and evolution.

  1. So you are born and come of age and then you find out that the ghrown ups who you had been led to believe were responsible people had allowed nuclear plants to be built on an island prone to earthquakes and had even been warned they were unstable and did nothing and you further learn that over these fools are a satanic cabal who PLANNED meticulously the Japanese fuk U shima disaster using weather--manipulation WMDs-- as yet another magic blood ritual as they did 9/11 etc etc etc and this you know in a plastic culture with mannikin puppets with couffered hair plastic eyes and brutal tones who spout paranoia-inducing misery into your rooms on the screens...
