"Individually and collectively, anything we do to resist or postpone the collapse will only make it worse. So stop resisting the revolution in human beingness. If you want to survive the multiple crises unfolding today, do not seek to survive them. That is the mindset of separation; that is resistance, a clinging to a dying past. Instead, allow your perspective to shift toward reunion, and think in terms of what you can give. What can you contribute to a more beautiful world? That is your only responsibility and your only security. The gifts you need to survive and enjoy will come to you easily, because what you do to the world, you do to yourself."
This is a great essay...I urge everyone to read it. It's pretty much what we need to know about the current economic situation, along with some real wisdom concerning how to survive it. http://www.realitysandwich.com/money...s_civilization "I think we all sense that we are nearing the end of an era...It arises from the very nature of money and property in the world today, and it will persist and continue to intensify until money itself is transformed. A process centuries in the making is in its final stages of unfoldment." |

People who would like to postpone a full blown crash into depression like me usually only want to do so to give us more time to prepare. Ill happily admit that its a selfish reason but when the time comes where there are enough of us to help each other then I will gladly contribute to its downfall by taking all cash out of banks

I did not see that this article was already up. But I do agree, money is debt. Money is just more for the PTB because interest is always attached, not to mention taxes galore and inflationary taxes. You work your butt off to pay for your house three times over, and then you get sick, lose a job, and bam, they take it from you and all that money is gone. You don't own anything, except a poor "character report card", your credit (debt) report.
From my vantage point, never again will I go through something like that. There is no ownership, don't you see. When they print money, it is debt that buys your groceries. How about another system. Nothing, but nothing will change until we abolish this system. Let er rip. Let go. This has not worked for anyone unless you are particularly attached to your Mercedes?!!! What about life? Quality of Life? Quality of life for your kids, and their kids? Peace to all |

This article is great, so east to understand, I have forwarded it to a couple of non-avalon based friends.
Indeed. It feels like things have calmed but just think about exactly how bad it did get at the weekend. It was very nearly global collapse and it seems to have been avoided, FOR NOW. And yes I am relioved too as it give me time to getthings into place. I might even have enough time to get out of the city which would be fabulous. We are still going to have a recession and I can'ttell yet whether it will be inflationary pr deflationary. I think the UK governemnt are going for inflationary as they have insisted that the banks they have lent money too resume 2007 lending levels. Can anyone help me out here with this - whether it will be inflationary or deflationary? The inflation figures yesterday were 5.2% but they were saying that this will be as high as it gets. Any ideas? |
