Contemplating Baba

Meher Baba taught that one could never know the results of one's actions.  Good deeds could produce evil unintended outcomes.  Evil deeds could yield good.  We're seeing the latter these days. 

President Donald Trump calls environmentalists “terrorists.” Yet he is responsible for destroying more oil and gas infrastructure, and possibly more fossil-fuel demand, than the most optimistic ecoterrorist could in their wildest dreams. By going to war with Iran, the president, who has been openly hostile toward the clean-energy transition, may unintentionally turn out to be one of its greatest allies.

Donald Trump has done more to accelerate the energy transition than anyone else alive. The attack on Iran is not the way any of us wanted this to happen, but the unintended consequences of Trump’s pointless war could help sink Trumpism everywhere – and the corrupt and filthy industry that props it up.

Van Morrison said it in "You Don't Pull No Punches, But You Don't Push the River." 

And we was contemplating Baba, William Blake and the Eternals

Looking for the Veedon Fleece

I can only hope that my efforts, meant in the best of intentions, do not in turn on themselves.  After spending a morning in the Lebanon & Beyond Garden at the BioPark's Botanic Garden placing labels with Maria, it was a domestic and restful afternoon.
