"When an activity raises threats of harm to human health or the environment, precautionary measures should be taken even if some cause and effect relationships are not fully established scientifically. In this context the proponent of an activity, rather than the public, should bear the burden of proof. The process of applying the precautionary principle must be open, informed and democratic and must include potentially affected parties. It must also involve an examination of the full range of alternatives, including no action." - Wingspread Statement on the Precautionary Principle, Jan. 1998

Myth and Magic

“Myth must be kept alive. The people who can keep it alive are the artists of one kind or another. The function of the artist is the mythologization of the environment and the world.”

— Joseph Campbell

DREAMS

"He wishes for the cloths of heaven"
By William Butler Yeats

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

People & Cultures of Hawaii
A psychocultural profile
Edited by John F. McDermott, Wen-Shing Tsing, Thomas Maretzki

"...the traditional Hawaiian belief in dreams, which persists with many Hawaiians today, is so powerful that they may be able to dream on demand, giving themselves and others insight into their inner lives and concerns as related to daily conflicts and problems...

...If one negates the special meaning of dreams one negates culture..."
