warren olds artistaHemi / James Baxter (1926-1972) fue uno delos más prominentes poetas de Nueva Zelanda.Baxter en 1969 adoptó ‘Hemi’, la traducciónmaori de su primer nombre James. Enseptiembre del mismo año fundó la primerade dos comunas rurales en Jerusalén en elrío Wanganui. Fue consistente con la contraculturainternacional de las comunas querechazaron el materialismo y la cultura delconsumo. Aún más interesante fue el hechode que Baxter trató de formar una comunidadque abarcara los conceptos sociales y laespiritualidad maori, sugiriendo que conceptosperdidos en la sociedad urbana ‘pakeha’(europea / blanca) de Nueva Zelanda podríanser recuperados de esta forma. Baxter decidiótrabajar con los ‘nga mokai’, los desplumados,jóvenes marginados por la sociedadurbana que a menudo llegaban a Jerusaléncon problemas de adicción.Warren Olds, Julio 2007Tamaki Makau Rau / AucklanndAotearoa / Nueva Zelanda***Programa de Hierro Forjado para ActividadComunal en Jerusalén, para Habitación Temporalo en Hogares Permanentes.Alimenta al hambriento;Dale de beber al sediento;Dale ropa a aquellos que no tienen;Dale hospitalidad a desconocidos;Cuida al enfermo;Da fianza para sacar gente fuera de la cárcel,visítalos en la cárcel, yCuídalos cuando salgan de ella;Ve a los funerales de tus vecinos;Dile a otra gente ignorante lo que en tu ignoranciacrees que sabes;Ayuda al que duda a clarificar su mente y aformar sus propias decisiones;Consuela al triste;Reprende a los pecadores, pero suavemente,hermano, suavemente;Perdona a lo que parece haberte hechodaño;Soporta a gente difícil;Reza por todo aquello con vida, incluyendolos espíritus de los muertos.Donde estas cosas se han hecho, Te WaiuraTapu (el Espíritu Santo) viene a vivir en loscorazones, y las diferencias de doctrinas y lasdificultades comienzan a desvanecerse comola nieve del verano.James K.

BaxterPukapuka Rā (1971)Hemi / James Keir Baxter (1926-1972) wasone of New Zealand’s most prominent poets.Baxter adopted ‘Hemi’, the Maori transliterationof his first name James, in 1969. InSeptember that year Baxter founded the firstof two rural communes at Jerusalem on theWhanganui River. Consistent with an internationalcounter-culture movement the communerejected the materialism of consumerculture. More interestingly though, Baxtersought to form a community that embracedMaori spirituality and social concepts, suggestingvalues lost within New Zealand Pakehaurban society might be recovered in thisway. Baxter chose to work with ‘nga mokai’,the fatherless ones‚ young people alienatedby urban society who often arrived at Jerusalemwith addiction problems.Warren Olds, July 2007Tamaki Makau Rau/AucklandAotearoa/New Zealand* * *A Cast-Iron Programme for Communal Activity,at Jerusalem, in Crash Pads, or in People’sHomesFeed the hungry;Give drink to the thirsty;Give clothes to those who lack them;Give hospitality to strangers;Look after the sick;Bail people out of jail, visit them in jail, andlook after them when they come out of jail;Go to neighbours funerals;Tell other ignorant people what you in yourignorance think you know;Help the doubtful to clarify their minds andmake their own decisions;Console the sad;Reprove sinners, but gently, brother, gently;Forgive what seems to be harm done to yourself;Put up with difficult people;Pray for whatever has life, including the spiritsof the dead.Where these things are done, Te Wairua Tapu[the Holy Spirit] comes to live in our hearts,and doctrinal differences and difficulties beginto vanish like the summer snow.James K.
