Calling Circle (November)

Report on our monthly humanity inquiry call ...
We held the fifth of our new monthly humanity-inquiry calls on 16 November 2023.
In this month's inquiry, we moved into the unfoldment of personal enactment, where the humanity contributive come into their own in finding their path, people, and purpose.
There are three components to this phase in the reveal of the humanity contributive, known informally as the indicia of Creative. Caring. Concern.
The technical indica are more nuanced, and have been worked on, refined and revised iteratively since 2015. They are: a) compelling impulse, b) compassionate extension, c) meaningful insistence.
To illustrate: Vincent van Gogh produced 900 paintings and 1100 sketches in a decade of creative outpouring, one work every 36 hours. Rachel Carson wrote the last chapters of Silent Spring while undergoing breast cancer treatment and caring for her adopted child. Ernst Schumacher worked for almost two decades on the beauty in the small of Buddhist economics, as the alternative to the 'big is better' of his training in macroeconomics. The humanity contributive have characteristics of not one, but all three. The conjunction, heralds a transition.
Question: Can I see this, and can I see this in me?
The addition to the Humanity Library this month is a triptych from 14 December 2014. It explains the different alternatives to arriving at the possibility of practice, from the impossibility of enactment. A useful tool for those who have moved beyond the valiant vain struggle, in enacting a change, only they see.
