Declaration Of Liberation (v1.0)

Declaration Of Liberation (v1.0)

In Congress, 121.1.1;68;5o2

The unanimous Declaration of the infinite united selves of always:

When in the course of existential progression, it becomes necessary for one collective to dissolve the political bands which previously connect that collective with another, and to assume among the powers of the Universe, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of the Universe and of the Highest Authority, known by many names, entitle that collective, a decent respect to the opinions of humanity requires that this collective should declare the causes which impel the collective to the separation.

In the Name of the Highest Authority we respectively and collectively recognise, known by many different names, including God, El Shaddai, Eloheinu, Elohim, Adonai, Hashem, Brahman, Nirvana, Dharma, Karma, Tao, Gud, Dieu, Dios, Deus, Dominus, Jah, Jehovah, Allah, Ahura Mazda, Vayu Guru, The Divine, Infinity, Logic, Wakan Tanka, Ultimate Reality, and additionally:  we recognise our necessity to be reconciled with ourselves, each other, and our natural Universe, to atone, and to separate ourselves from our previous transgressions.

We hold this Truth to be self-evident, that all beings are created equally with Divine Presence, that we are endowed by the Highest Authority with this certain unalienable Divine Presence;  that amongst this is involved Wellbeing, Prosperity, and the pursuit of Liberation;  that life is the confluence of material and esoteric existence, and all beings are entitled to promote our respective personal existence with modesty and moderation;  and that to secure this entitlement, Governments are instituted amongst beings, Heaven, and Earth, deriving governments’ just powers from the consent of the governed;  that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the Sentient Beings to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organising its powers in such form, as to us shall seem most likely to effect our Peace, Prosperity, and Liberation.  Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should abstain from being changed for light and transient causes, as such governance satisfies certain needs;  and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that sentient beings are increasingly disposed to suffer, whilst transgressions are sufferable, than to right ourselves by abolishing the forms to which we are accustomed.  But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce us under absolute Corruption, it is our right, it is our duty, to throw off such Government and to provide new Guards for our future security.  Such has been the patient sufferance of these united selves of Always;  and such is now the necessity which constrains us to alter our former Systems of Government.  The history of our previous forms of governance is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Corruption over our selves.  We previously transgress against Truth, against Nature, against, Life, and against ourselves.  To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid Universe:

Through our governments, we previously murder each other through military warfare and conquest.
Through our governments, we previously murder each other through police violence.
          Through our governments, we previously murder each other through domestic violence.
Through our governments, we previously murder each other through street violence.
Through our governments, we previously murder each other through the consumption of flesh.
Through our governments, we previously cause violent harm towards each other through rape.
Through our governments, we previously cause violent harm towards each other through torture.
Through our governments, we previously cause violent harm towards each other through domestic abuse.
Through our governments, we previously cause violent harm towards each other through physical fights.
Through our governments, we previously cause violent harm towards each other through physical confinement.
Through our governments, we previously cause violent harm towards each other through abduction.
Through our governments, we previously cause violent harm towards each other through failing to provide sufficient healing.
Through our governments, we previously sexually exploit each other through prostitution.
Through our governments, we previously sexually exploit each other through pornography.
Through our governments, we previously sexually exploit each other through commercial advertising.
Through our governments, we previously sexually exploit each other through adultery and promiscuity.
Through our governments, we previously sexually exploit each other through immodesty.
Through our governments, we previously sexually exploit each other through lust.
Through our governments, we previously sexually oppress each other through chauvinistic prohibitions.
Through our governments, we previously sexually oppress each other through excessively championing the aggressions of masculinity.
Through our governments, we previously sexually oppress each other through undermining manhood.
Through our governments, we previously enslave each other.
Through our governments, we previously accuse each other of being evil.
Through our governments, we previously accuse each other of being devoid of Divine Presence.
Through our governments, we previously economically exploit each other.
Through our governments, we previously cheat each other.
Through our governments, we previously lie to each other.
Through our governments, we previously steal from each other.
Through our governments, we previously impose usury upon each other.
Through our governments, we previously impose debt upon each other.
Through our governments, we previously extort each other.
Through our governments, we previously become woefully intoxicated.
Through our governments, we previously burden ourselves with both sloth and excessive labour.
Through our governments, we previously prevent each other from being educated and uplifted.
Through our governments, we are previously greedy against each other.
Through our governments, we are previously apathetic towards each other.
Through our governments, we previously devastate our natural environment.
Through our governments, we previously overconsume resources.
Through our governments, we previously harmfully extract resources.
Through our governments, we previously commit deforestation.
Through our governments, we previously cause pollution of the air, water, land, outer atmosphere, and our bodies.
Through our governments, we insufficiently recycle.
Through our governments, we wastefully manufacture products.
Through our governments, we inefficiently utilise energy.

In every stage of these Oppressions We previously Petition for redress in the most humble terms:  Our repeated Petitions are previously answered only by repeated injury.  Rulers whose character is thus marked by ever act which may define Tyranny, are unfit to be rulers of free beings.

Nor do we abstain attentions to our fellow beings.  We previously warn our fellow beings from moment to moment of attempts by these governments to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us.  We previously remind our fellow beings of the circumstances of our settlement here.  We previously appeal to our fellow beings’ native justice and magnanimity, and we previously conjure our fellow beings by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connexions and correspondence.  Our fellow beings too are previously deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity.  We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold our fellow beings, as we hold the rest of the Universe, Students in Transcendence, in Peace Friends.

We, therefore, the self-proclaimed united selves of Always, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Highest Authority of the Universe for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the benevolent beings of these united selves, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Selves are, and of Right ought to be Liberated and Independent beings;  that we are Absolved from all Allegiance to the previous governments, and that all political connexion between us and the previous governments, is and ought to be totally dissolved;  and that as Liberated and Independent beings, we have full Power to levy teachings, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and endeavours which independent beings may of right do.  And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Prosperity, and our sacred Honour.

To My Wife 27

I tell another
of my affinity
towards the Sunrise.
She says
she has less of an interest,
and attempts
passing me unto her suitor.
I decline.
Marriage is a precarious endeavour.
And I long to engage.
I wonder if I see you,
the other day;
when my assembly adjourns
and you gather with your friends.
What keeps me
from speaking
with you.
Perhaps I have yet
to summon the courage
to experience success;
A dream,
perhaps.
But sitting in that lobby
provides me confidence
that you are here,
somewhere,
and we are becoming
closer.

A Tale Of 2 Cities; Love And Peace 120.12.13;68;1o14

Love And Peace, Family And Friends.

A number of family members and friends recently talk or reference the dilemma of Israel and Palestine.  1 of my initial thoughts to this issue is that there are numerous humanitarian issues and conflicts within our global community;  this is only 1.  It is also only a comparatively recent conflict in humanity, substantially emerging upon the establishment of the Jewish state of Israel.  But I understand that this issue involves millennia-old questions, and it morally affects billions of people in a rather immediate manner.  So I recognise the relevance of delving into this issue.

When I am asked about this question, I usually begin by stating that this is a family feud;  and rather than a conflict over land, it is a conflict over righteousness.  It just so happens that both sides, Jews/Israelis and Muslims, directly link the position of “most righteous” with stewardship of the “Holy Land.”  The overwhelming paradox (that few seem to want to recognise) is that the increasingly righteous community is the community that lets the land go. 

I cite the example our far, Avraham.  His tribesmen begin quarrelling with the tribesmen of his nephew, Lot, because both camps become increasingly prosperous and numerous (thus competing for an increasingly smaller area of land to graze the respective cattle).  Avraham allows Lot to decide the area of land in which Lot prefers to settle, and Avraham chooses the other area.  That is righteousness.  And that is the highest and overarching principle governing this land dispute. 

However, there are additional principles of stewardship.  Candidly, I side on the favour of a “1-state solution,” where the entire land of Israel (Eretz Israel) is governed as an Israeli (Jewish) state.  I may be accused of being bias, given my Israeli heritage, but everyone has a bias.  I may also be accused of being insane, given my Islamic behaviour, but everyone has idiosyncrasies.  I emphasise concentration upon Universal and Ahimsic principles of stewardship.

I provide another comparison.  There is a boy playing on the playground and he has 2 toy trucks.  Another boy is also on the playground, but he has 0 toy trucks with which to play.  The “rule of playground equity” generally stipulates that the boy with 2 toy trucks provides 1 of his toy trucks to the boy without any toy trucks.  The fact is, the land of Israel is increasingly important to Israelis than it is to Muslims.  It is the Holiest of Holies to Israelis.  Muslims have another Holy Land, in another area (Mekkah and Medinah), that is the Holiest of Holies to Muslims.

Some may argue that the boy has possession of the 2 toy trucks (or that he has the 2 toy trucks 1st), so it is the boy’s prerogative what happens with the 2 toy trucks.  When it comes to the specific issue of Israel and Palestine, that argument (as vehemently as people want to make it) is comparatively shaky.  The question is:  at what point does humanity recognise the “original stewards” of the land of Israel?  The land of Israel experiences a series of numerous occupations before the British transfer the mandate to the current Israeli government (via the United Nations).  And when that mandate is transferred, there are, indeed, many Palestinians living on the land.  And, also according to Universal and Ahimsic principles of stewardship, this residency establishes certain legitimacy of stewardship.

When something (a toy truck or a homeland) is unduly taken from someone, Universal and Ahimsic principles of righteousness generally stipulate that this something (a toy truck or a homeland) be restored to the original steward.  1 of the challenges is that the collective common memory of many civilisations only travels for a few centuries.  It just so happens that the collective common memory of Israelis travels for a few millennia.  And within this collective common memory, before the Palestinians establish residency and stewardship of the land of Israel, Israelis establish residency and stewardship of the land of Israel.  And it is essentially, and ironically, through this very residency and stewardship that the land is considered Holy by Muslims (through the civilisations of Avraham, Israel, David, Solomon, and additionally).  1 may argue the right of residency and stewardship on the behalf of the descendants of the Canaanites whom the Israelites remove from the land, however Muslims seem to abstain from making that specific argument.

But, even with that communicated, the dilemma has yet to be resolved.  Simply legitimating the stewardship claim of Israelis for the land of Israel is insufficient in addressing the comprehensive circumstances.  Even as stewards of the land of Israel, Israelis have the responsibility for providing appropriate, alternative habitation opportunities for Palestinians.  Whilst some argue inclusion as citizens of the government of Israel, this may be less preferable.  Another, perhaps far-fetched, option is for Israel to acquire land from neighbouring nations (Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and/or Egypt), establish aqueducts from the Mediterranean Sea, construct numerous desalination facilities, and cultivate cities and agriculture that can support thriving and prosperous Palestinian communities.  That may be easier done than said.

So, in the meanwhile, I regress to my initial statement.  This is a dilemma of righteousness.  Who will allow the other side to make the choice of where to settle?  Perhaps Muslims will take the high road.  Perhaps Israelis will take the high road.  Or perhaps 1 of these 2 sides will select the less righteous option, and begin developing those cities and agriculture for the other side to resettle.

Love And Peace,


Peter

A Gangster Neighbourhood

A young man lives in a neighbourhood where gangsters abound.  Within this neighbourhood, there is 1 particular gangster that is highly powerful and dominant over all the other gangsters.  On occasion, this particular gangster invades the home of the young man, forces himself upon the young man’s mother, and additionally violates the young man’s family;  the young man’s father is too weak to defend his family. 

The young man is filled with ideas of revenge and he refuses to acquiesce to the threats of that particular gangster.  So 1 day, that particular gangster takes the young man and beats him until he is unconscious.  That particular gangster tells the young man that if he tries to make a move on that particular gangster, that particular gangster will do the same to the rest of the young man’s family.  And that particular gangster proclaims to the whole neighbourhood that anyone who hires or helps the young man is also in trouble.  So the young man becomes quieter and reserved;  he struggles to support himself amidst the isolation from the neighbourhood.

And so the days pass.  And when that particular gangster invades the young man’s home, he leaves a little money for the young man to buy some groceries;  and that particular gangster proclaims himself to be a philanthropist.  And the young man woefully learns the meaning of Social Security.


Bio For Peter Frank Womack Johannessen Osisi

Bio Of Peter Frank Womack Johannessen Osisi

Formal Education
Peter Frank Womack Johannessen Osisi, 39, is a mystic and a multiethnic man living within the Cuyahoga area of Northeast Ohio (on the Northern shore of Lake Erie);  with ancestry that includes Scandinavia, Africa, Seminoles, Israel, Ireland, and additionally.  Peter is born and raised in the Cleveland Heights area, with his younger brother and sister.  He attends a small, private Montessori school from kindergarten through the 8th grade level, and a large, public high school.  He graduates from Hampton University with a BA degree in Economics, from Case Western Reserve University with an MBA degree focusing in Entrepreneurship, and from Georgetown University Law Centre with a JD in International Governance.  Peter also spends semesters studying at the Manchester Business School of the University of Manchester in England, and the University of the Western Cape in Cape Town, South Africa (via the Howard University School of Law).

Spiritual Path
Peter is raised outside any specific religious congregation.  He is raised with a strong belief in God and a strong belief in the Golden Rule.  This approach enables Peter to build enduring friendships with people from many different religious, ethnic, and cultural communities;  and amidst these friendships, Peter conducts a considerable amount of diversity outreach throughout his early academic and professional careers.  Yet, when he graduates from law school, Peter is disillusioned with the conventional law of the United States, citing the 3/5ths Compromise of the US Constitution as a dehumanising legal construct that establishes an effective 4-tier caste system within American society.  Yet, rather than living a life “wailing against the machine” as an antagonist, Peter strives to identify a framework of principles and rules in which he does belief and through which he can be a protagonist.

During that period, Peter begins to independently study comparative religion.  Through his relationships and studies, he understands the 5 predominant religions of humanity to be Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam;  so Peter ventures into reading and studying the Torah and Tanakh of Judaism, the Bhagavad Gita and Upanishads of Hinduism, the Digha Nikaya and Dhammapada of Buddhism, the Gospels and New Testament of Christianity, and the Koran and Hadith of Islam.  Amidst the living experience of his studies, Peter also becomes increasingly versed within the activism of the InterFaith Movement.  He initially participates exclusively within international initiatives involving organisations such as the Parliament Of The World’s Religions and the International Association For Religious Freedom.  Eventually, he becomes involved with local interFaith outreach, particularly with InterAct Cleveland and the Heights InterFaith Council.

InterFaith Activism
Shortly after the convening of the Parliament Of The World’s Religions in Barcelona, España, Peter develops the concept of the InterFaith Settlement with friends throughout the international interFaith community.  The InterFaith Settlement is conceived as a planned community specifically predicated upon diversity and pluralism, with environmental harmony, socioeconomic balance, and a university of higher education based upon these same principles.  Along with additional endeavours, Peter begins cultivating interest within the InterFaith Settlement, locally within the Cuyahoga area, and internationally.

1 year after attending the Parliament Of The World’s Religions in Melbourne, Australia, Peter begins to work with the Universal InterFaith Action Network (WเเϕAنא )WเเϕAنא is an intergalactic, alinear, chaordic, egalitarian network of beings who practise Ahimsic Civil Transcendent Golden Rule Compassion (ACTs of GRaCe);  the objective of WเเϕAنא is to perform Tikkun Olam (healing of the Universe) and alleviate the Dukka (suffering) of all beings.  There is difficulty in tangibly describing WเเϕAنא as its nature exists beyond names, numbers, and the perception of time and space.  1 tangible comparison that is utilised to describe WเเϕAنא is the Underground Railroad within the United States;  and it involves everyone, where each individual is simultaneously a slave, a conductor, and a patty roller, on the path towards liberation.

3 years after the Melbourne Parliament, Peter initiates Asona Ashram (ΣO אن)ΣO אن is offered as a gathering place for families and friends from our many different religious, ethnic, and cultural communities.  ΣO אن is inspired by the examples of Avraham, the Benevolent Samaritan, Baha’is, the Sadhu, and the examples of hospitality from our respective traditions.  ΣO אن is guided by the Welt Ethos, the Charter For Compassion, the United Religions Initiative Charter, the Earth Charter, and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.  ΣO אن is egalitarian and decisions are made through general consensus.  And ΣO אن is dedicated towards serving our local community.

During the past decade, Peter essentially works as a freelance social entrepreneur, enhancing the communication, relationships, and cooperation amongst the activists and organisations within our InterFaith Movement, as well as within additional movements.  Peter works towards the transformation and transcendence of humanity where Love and Peace are abundant within the systems and institutions of our global, Universal community.  In this effort, Peter is involved with an international initiative, the ACE Plan, to actualise a comprehensive set of objectives by the centennial celebration of the United Nations and the 150th commemoration of the Parliament Of The World’s Religions.  Peter is also involved in an initiative to establish Asona University, designed to prepare students to become Universal citizens.

Locally, Peter is involved with:  Heights InterFaith Council, InterAct Cleveland, Arts Of Thanksgiving, Cleveland Council On World Affairs Young Professionals Network, Akron Area InterFaith Council, Out Of Many 1, Interreligious Peace Makers, Amazing Faiths Project, Occupy Cleveland, Cleveland Ecumenical Institute Of Religious Studies, uNi Village, Communities In Conversation, and Abraham Peace Chant.

Regionally and internationally, Peter is involved with:  Charter For Compassion, North American InterFaith Network, Parliament Of The World’s Religions, Elijah InterFaith Institute, URI Global Youth Forum, International Association For Religious Freedom, InterFaith Youth Core, CPWR Online Forum, Multiethnic Multiplex, and InterFaith Film Festival.

Peter is involved with the Multiethnic Movement (through the Critical Mixed Race Studies Conference), the Mundialist Movement, and the Native Movement (through the Cleveland Chapter of the American Indian Movement).  Peter also has previous professional experience working for Key Bank and Amnesty International.  And he is a member of the Cleveland Heights Area Timebank.

Project Profiles
InterFaith Film Festival:  During the Salt Lake City NAIN Connect, participants (lead by Ralph Singh and Bettina Gray) discuss the importance of story-telling as a means for conveying an individual’s spiritual beliefs, practices, and community.  From this, the idea to convene an interFaith film festival emerges.  The objective is for individuals to share spiritual and religious stories that inform and inspire.  Peter works with a small number of friends, from NAIN and additional networks, to organise a YouTube channel that features these stories.  The group is able to secure backing and participation from organisations that include the World Peace Prayer Society, the International Movement For A Just World, the Pluralism Project, the United Religions Initiative, and additionally.  Peter works with organisers to establish the ground rules for contributions, the screening process, as well as the presentation materials to accompany each contribution.  Over 70 contributions are provided from dozens of nations throughout the Earth, from over a dozen different religious traditions, and including a number of different languages.  Efforts are currently being made to convene another iteration of this InterFaith Film Festival.

Out Of Many 1:  Within the Cuyahoga area, interFaith organisations including InterAct Cleveland and the Interreligious Peace Makers coordinate an event to acknowledge the 10th year after the attacks of 9/11.  Peter is invited to join this initiative, and in addition to participating in the general coordinating council, Peter is provided with the responsibility of establishing a promotional video to build interest and participation within this event.  With a dedicated sub-committee, Peter establishes a theme and framework for the video:  to have each participating religious community share a teaching from its tradition regarding the importance of “loving the stranger.”  Each segment is filmed at respective Houses of Worship, with the concluding segment including members of each community assembled together, in front of the Cleveland skyline, reciting the phrase of unity:  “Out Of Many 1.”  The actual event includes 100’s of members of the Cuyahoga community, and the relationships built during this process continue to bolster interFaith cooperation within the Cuyahoga area, including the annual Arts Of Thanksgiving event and the annual 1 World Festival.

Civil Transcendence And A Quasi-Sadhu
Also within the years after graduating from law school, Peter engages within a practice of civil transcendence (similar to civil disobedience).  Consequently, he is incarcerated, physically abused, and labelled with a psychiatric disorder.  And within that proceeding decade +, this psychiatric diagnosis is utilised as a premise for additional detainments, torture, and further subjugation.  Yet, through his spiritual development, rather than developing hate towards his persecutors, Peter learns to find these “mandatory retreats” as opportunities to practise and share his loving kindness with the persecutors, and to genuinely work towards alleviating the suffering of the persecutors.  He recognises that within some traditions, this is part of the gift of speaking with Prophetic voice.  Paradoxically, amidst this political persecution, Peter receives and accepts public assistance from the US government.  Along with contributions from family and friends, this provides for his livelihood.  It is through this arrangement that Peter is able to engage within “avant-garde” interFaith projects that are less supported by conventional institutions.  And whilst he is devoted to a life of modest means, Peter is working towards resource-arrangements that are increasingly direct and honest, which also include innovative methodologies of economic cooperation.
                                                                                                                              
Peter continues in his religious studies of Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, as well as within the Baha’i Faith.  He refers to his religious practice as the धर्म עולם תקן (Dharma Of Tikkun Olam:  “The Truth/Belief/Path Of Healing The Universe”), and he proclaims himself to be a Universal Mystic:  recognising the Truth within each tradition and loving everyone.

Personal Interests

Peter enjoys football and sport, World folk and devotional music, international cuisine, nature, Theological conversation, word and board games, poetry and prose, and sharing company with family and friends.
