Have you Ever been Swept Off Your Feet?

In both cases – whether the bubble was inflated with positive or negative energy – the participants in the bubble are being swept away further and further away from actual physical reality and start to see everything either ‘extremely negatively’ or ‘extremely positively’ – neither experience is grounded in reality – because the physical is neither positive or negative – it just is what it is.

And Then You Crash – Meconomics

In this little series, we’ve been investigating the phenomenon of inflation, how we in our daily lives participate in ‘inflating our reality’ and so, how we are on a personal level participating in the same principles/dynamics that we see playing out on a bigger scale when it comes to inflation, speculative bubbles and financial market crashes.

Comfort, security and nurturing are all things we wish are present when a baby comes into this world. Yet, these conditions are not a reality for many babies, as parents themselves like these things in their lives. In Pietermaritzburg, the capital of KwaZulu Natal province in South Africa, 3 to 5 babies are…

Humanity Washed Ashore

This was an excerpt of just one of the stories about the boy. Over the last few days, dozens have been written and published on various major news sites. What is more striking than the content of the posts, is the comments that are left on these articles. What is humanity’s response to such images, to such news?

Voting Fun – What does it Feel Like to Have a Say?

Now – before such increased direct political participation is a reality – let’s do a little test to see what it feels like. So – here are some mock-questions where you’re asked to give your input. Imagine that this relates to your direct reality (eg. your town) – and your answer has a weight that influences the outcome of the decision. Of course, in reality…

Day 202: Nightmare Bacteria on the Rise

For further context read and full article read:
CDC: 'Nightmare bacteria' spreading
Why 'nightmare bacteria' on the rise



Hospitals need to take action against the spread of a deadly, antibiotic-resistant strain of bacteria, says the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The bacteria kill up to half of patients who are infected.

The bacteria, called carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae or CRE, have increased over the past decade and grown resistant to even the most powerful antibiotics, according to the CDC. In the first half of 2012, 200 health care facilities treated patients infected with CRE.

"CRE are nightmare bacteria," CDC director Dr. Tom Frieden said in a statement. "Our strongest antibiotics don't work and patients are left with potentially untreatable infections. Doctors, hospital leaders and public health must work together now to implement CDC's 'detect and protect' strategy and stop these infections from spreading."

Why are we using antibiotics so widely when the consequences are problematic?
One of the ways we consume antibiotics is through the meat we eat. Currently, the meat industry consumes 4/5th of the supply of antibiotics.Cattle and other livestock are being fed diets which counter their very design. Because it is more expensive to feed them a proper diet in order to 'meaten them up' -- cheaper and more harmful diets are fed to the animals. Obviously, since they are not designed to eat this food, like corn,  -- where the designs of these two points are not compatible -- harmful consequences emerge. One of the ways to get around the health problems that pop up their head when cattle are fed corn, is to give them antibiotics to ease their tummies. And then, if that's not bad enough -- we'll give them some more antibiotics for the sake of 'growth promotion'. Since you are what you eat -- the meat that is derived from the animals is tainted with antibiotics -- which we eat, and then become.

It's funny though how 'anti-biotics' in terms of its Latin roots literally means 'anti life'. It's also kind of how we humans act. We don't care about the life of the animals and we don't care about the lives of our fellow human beings -- all we care about is money. We want lots of it and we want it now. So we'll use antibiotics and threaten the future of humanity and the animal kingdom, but at least we'll get a good buck out of it.

I mean, hospitals are supposed to be places where you can go to 'get better'. Hospitals have become places where you now risk your life either by going into massive debt for treatments or where you get caught in death traps as all the nightmare bacteria and super bugs are coming to bite us in the ass.

And who is really the 'nightmare' in all of this? From the human's perspective its the bugs and viruses -- they are out to kill us: they have to go. Though from Mother Nature's perspective -- we're the ones destroying the environment and all Life on this planet, and we're the bad guys that have to go -- and it looks like she's currently one step ahead of us. No matter how hard we try to come up with something better to beat the bugs, they come beating us right back. And they don't have the technology and intelligence that we praise ourselves for so much. I mean, it's just a bug -- you can't even see it with your bare eyes -- what POSSIBLE significance could it have? Yet here are the bugs and they are winning this race.

In an Equal Money System, money and profit will no longer be the driving force of the Health Care System. Health, Life will drive the Health Care System. We won't just disregard treatments which are actually effective and prevent harm from being done just because it's not profitable -- that's losing the whole point of what Health Care is supposed to be about! We will respect nature, we will respect life and restore balance on Earth.

Not only will this vastly improve the quality of our lives and make health care accessible to everyone -- we will also no longer be a threat to our environment within acting within the principle of Prevention is the Best Cure.

Day 54: Government Intervention - Part 3

I commit myself to expose that any type of intervention within the current economic system completely useless – since we are changing some of the variables in the equation but the equation is still rooted within the same principle – as the principle of self-interest and gain – and whatever changes we implement within the system, will be rendered useless throughout time as self-interest will always prevail – as this is how we set up our system

I commit myself to show that the problem with economics is the very root, as the starting point of economics and the specific character role which has been assigned to humanity – where the starting point is to distribute limited resources in such a way as to attempt and satisfy unlimited wants of humans – where money is the deciding factor as to who gets to satisfy their wants/needs and who doesn’t – and where the human has taken on the role of the self-interested character who is allowed to do whatever it takes in the name of profit

I commit myself to expose that an economic system with the above equation and variables as its starting point can only result in disaster as it is based on unsustainable goals and the reckless/unreliable/irresponsible nature of the human being – having left out all and any consideration regarding any other beings but itself

I commit myself to expose that any action concerning change within the system for the betterment of Life on Earth is not in fact altruistic – as any change within the system is rendered useless by the overpowering authority which has been given to self-interest and the pursuit of happiness and so the only altruistic act, the only act of unconditional love would be the abolishment of the current world system and replace it with a system which is Best for All Life as the Equal Money System which Values Life, that which is real as the physical reality over Mind Delusions as Money

I commit myself to show that standing / support a cause which does not cause the replacement of the current world system is useless and will most likely only bring more suffering as the workings of the current world system as the reflection of the mind is not understood

I commit myself to the education of the human being so all may see/realise/understand how this reality actually operates as it is merely reflecting / mimicking the workings of the Mind


I commit myself to expose that we cannot sustain our current world system as it was not designed with sustainability in Mind and thus the best thing we can do is release ourselves from the current world system as it is a parasite sucking the Life out of Planet Earth and all the living beings as plants, animals and humans – and so I commit myself to remove the parasite and replace it with a system of Support as the Equal Money System where NONE are left behind

I commit myself to the redefinition of economics – where the starting point of economics is no longer that of the limited anthropocentric view of life, but a starting point of Biocentrism* where Life is put as the centre cause and where the Human no longer plays the role of Self-Interested Agent looking out to satisfy his own desires, but is placed in a position of Stewardship*/Custodianship – here to support other Life forms as itself within an Equal and One consideration and respect



*Biocentrism: Biocentrism states that nature does not exist simply to be used or consumed by humans, but that humans are simply one species amongst many,[4] and that because we are part of an ecosystem, any actions which negatively affect the living systems of which we are a part, adversely affect us as well,[4][5] whether or not we maintain a biocentric worldview.[4] Biocentrists believe that all species have inherent value, and that humans are not "superior" in a moral or ethical sense

*Stewardship is an ethic that embodies responsible planning and management of resources.

Day 11: Economics is a System of Values -- Not a Science



I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe and present economics to be a science which is set in stone and within that portray the Capitalistic System to be THE System and THE ONLY WAY it can be within the world

I forgive myself that I haven't accepted and allowed myself to remember from Economy101 that economics is not a science but a value system which reflects what humans value on Earth -- and is in no way set in stone

I forgive myself that I haven't accepted and allowed myself to remember from economy 101 that economics in its essence pertains to the management of resources and the particular questions any economic system must answer to in terms of what to produce, how to produce it and who gets what -- and within that I forgive myself that I haven't accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that Capitalism is only one of the ways of answering this question, but is not necessarily THE WAY of answering these questions

I forgive myself that I haven't accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that there is no right or wrong within answering those three basic questions -- but only that which either works for All or doesn't -- and where Capitalism has revealed through the ages to not be an answer that works Best for All

I forgive myself that I haven't accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the way Capitalism answers these questions is rather unsatisfactory as is evident in a world where a majority starve and suffer
I forgive myself that I haven't accepted and allowed myself to consider other ways of answering the three basic questions of economics such as that of the Equal Money System

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to defend the current World Economic System as if it's "the only way", while the current way of the world economic system merely reflects the values we as humans hold dear which reveals to us our inherent evil nature and the inherent evil within the economists who designed such a system

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that these values are unchangeable and that thus Capitalism is the best we can do

I forgive myself that I haven't accepted and allowed myself to see and realise the extent of limitation I am accepting and allowing myself and the world to exist as, through stating that "this is the best we can do" -- which basically implies we are not the "ingenious superior race" we believe ourselves to be and that bugs such as bees are thus in fact superior to human beings in every way

I forgive myself that I haven't accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that if our current economic system is a system of values, and this is what has become of Earth and the human race as a result of this system -- that this means that our values and who we are as the human race is inherently evil

I forgive myself that I haven't accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that our economic system is not a system of value but a system of disregard and abuse

I forgive myself that I haven't accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the current way of what we value and what we don't value is in fact not working for everyone and that since we are all living on the same planet Earth, and since no-one owns planet Earth and its resources except for planet Earth itself -- that this is very unreasonable to say the least

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to have designed a system of values called Capitalism which values an idea, the idea of money, over something real -- which is Life

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to create a system where I value a figment of my imagination more than that which I can touch here in the physical reality


I commit myself to the re-evaluation of our current values and our current economic system which is a reflection of our values as to realign these values to what is Best for All Life

I commit myself to changing the current World Economic System where Money is valued over Life to a world Equal Money System where Life is valued in fact and all are taken care off Equally

I commit myself to exposing the economic system and its perverse values for what it is so we may see what it is that we have accepted and allowed ourselves to become which is Evil and that this needs to be reversed to Life

I commit myself to remind the economists within the world that our current economic system is not set in stone as it is merely a system of values which can be changed

I commit myself to expose the atrocities that have been created and allowed within the world through the working of a broken economic system which does not serve all Life but only has regard for itself and its own infinite growth

I commit myself to expose the simple truth that our current World Economic System is unsustainable as basic math can tell you that a system of infinite growth cannot co-exst in a world of finite resources

I commit myself to expose that the belief that natural resources can be substituted with human capital and that we should thus not worry about the depletion of natural resource is completely bullocks and will lead our world into destruction

I commit myself to the establishment of an Equal Money System which will be an actual system of sustainability which ALL can enjoy
