Bill Plotkin - Soulcraft

In this Earth Talk, Bill Plotkin offers some imaginative possibilities for cultivating a greater affinity between the breathing, inter-dependent patterns of nature and our human participation in a world brimming with intelligent presences.
Bill Plotkin PhD, describes himself as a "psychologist gone wild." A cultural visionary and wilderness guide, he's been blazing new trails for decades. His ecocentric re-visioning of psychology invites us into a conscious and embodied relationship with soul and with the natural world. He is the author of Wild Mind; A Field Guide to the Human Psyche, Soulcraft, and Nature and the Human Soul.

I saw this the first time in the 19th Century. Return to Nature! He speaks of "healthy cultures" but not of civilization and virtue. He speaks of "vision" and "revelation". That means founding a new religion, or just feel good gobbledeegook.

So he wants industrial collapse.

[@JeffreyPSmith-ub9bz]

he does not exhibit the conviction that comes from living what he talks about. This man is a total product of the "culture" he claims to revile and has no first experience is what he claims to advocate.

[@deepsupport11]

Perhaps the soft spoken-ness emerges from his extensive work on himself rather than the false ego conviction we see so much of

@@deepsupport11 true people from the west are used to posturing and bravado and ignorant of real confidence :P buddhist monks have this unassuming presence in them and they are the bravest

@@redefinedliving5974 Read "Soulcraft" if you haven't, it's genius. Plotkin's forays into the domain of soul were partly in response to not getting a lot of value with regards to the Soulful domain via the Buddhist and other Eastern traditions. We are not only universal awareness or Buddha Nature, we are also individual Souls--unique waves on the Ocean

[@redefinedliving5974]

@@deepsupport11 That's true. I've long since branch out from my studies of Buddhism. I've been into astrology and the occult stuff and getting more into shamanism and I can see the parallels with my limited knowledge of Plotkin's work. Will definitely dig deeper!
