Distracted by technology and
propaganda, unable to relate to the human condition and nature, who
are we today? Ask feminist icon and activist Ani DiFrancno. In an
upcoming album release, we look forward to the rest of the songs that
share good company with “Binary”. This Buddhist is digging the
message.
Her description of consciousness as
“binary” and “spinning” reminds me of electrons and the
Buddhist idea that nothing is truly separate from anything else. I
only relate this because the Tao of Physics is what got me interested
in Buddhism in the first place.
This song encourages to “complete the
circuit”. This also involves progressive and engaged Buddhism by
getting up the face of those who propagate the mythology of
separateness by oppression and greed.
Here is her video of the song from the
30A Songwriter's Festival. Thanks, Linda Fahey, for introducing us
to this on NPR. *explicit lyrics
