Abundant Scarcity
I measure (all) things. Including my methods and tools of measurement.
So I thought I saw/say the circle of material survival drawn and assured
in the public domain, ostensibly a public good. We have externalized Cornucopia.
But there is an inner world and an outer world: and the Sufis tell us
the inner world (alam al-mithal) has a hundred gardens: and if
we don't find or believe in the inner cornucopia, then the god of abundance
will serve scarcity: how better to do that than to give us zero? To erase
the slate, with all its museums, its symphonies, its mythologies: abundant
scarcity!
