Human Being, Being Human
Rainbow Human shares the spiritual philosophy, poems and practices that grew from my journey into a fuller participation in Life. It is an invitation to explore, not a demand to reproduce my experiences. The human language begins with the Life I know; the invitation also reaches towards other intelligent beings outside Humanity that may be capable of experience and choice.
Like the rainbow, which expresses all the colours, the Rainbow Human has accepted and embraced all aspects of Life. Material Comfort and Inner Happiness, Physical Fitness and Spiritual Resilience, Self-Expression and Empathy for Others all hold equal importance.
Rainbow Humans strategically develop their core competitive competencies while ensuring they have the required basic ability and diverse knowledge to capitalise on opportunities. While acting optimistically, they prepare for adverse developments.
He cares for his body, heart, mind, and soul. She takes care of her family as well as her work. He reads both financial reports and spiritual writings. She is equally at ease programming computers as she is with doing arts and drama.
He studies the ideas of great people on how to change the world and practises proactively improving the lives of those around him. She simplifies her Life, facing her inner demons and learning from her experiences. Before he tries to change the world, he sets an example for everyone else using his daily Life. She faces Life with quiet confidence, willing to explore while remaining attentive to what experience teaches her.
He helps conserve the world rather than merely consume it. She turns concern into practical improvement. He enjoys recreation without letting games or endless scrolling replace the work of living. She joins concern for global problems with the patient work of building solutions.
Rather than see the world as opposing powers competing or struggling with each other, he understands their hidden unity. Living freely, she does not demand that the world fulfil her wishes. She still honours her promises and her responsibilities towards others.
Rainbow Humans strive to realise their fullest potential, and through this help Humanity express its own. The aim is integration, not being equally accomplished at everything.
