The consequences of Conscious living

In these times where we are being confronted from many sides with what we human beings are doing to our planet through our system of consumerism, which is pollution to the point of no return, global warming, total disruption of ecosystems that are vital for maintaining the earth's 'balance' that makes life on earth for the human possible, intoxicating the very air we breathe and the water we drink by creating and disposing stuff during which we did not take earth into consideration as to how our endeavor in trying to build our 'glorious human empire' will practically affect our environment, etcetera... - there simultaneously arises an 'awareness' that we must start to 'think about nature' in the things we do, as an attempt to slow down the self-destruction path that we seem to be on at the moment.

when we look at society, we will firstly look at wealthy countries such as most European countries, Canada, Australia, etcetera..., we may notice that this 'awareness' to 'live consciously' and 'think about nature' isn't equally present in all human beings - there are those that go full force and only wear hemp clothing, eat organic, recycle everything, try not to use plastic at all, only shop in specialized 'Nature-shops', have solar panels on their roof, drive a hybrid car (depending on how much money they have) and cannot stop talking about how everybody should live like they do, then you have the ones who simply try to 'be a good citizen' so they do the recycling that their government suggested and think to themselves that 'if everyone lived like me and did their recycling there wouldn't be global warming, and then there are those who couldn't care less what happens to the planet or what anybody has to say about recycling, protecting nature or about 'being a good citizen'.

So, what we can clearly see is that even though it is obvious that a change is needed in the way that we 'communicate' with earth, as the actions that we take towards animal and plant life - there doesn't seem to be a general awareness within all human beings that this is what is needed. In fact only a very small percentage of humans actually live out this awareness of 'taking care of earth' as 'conscious living', and I am still only talking about the wealthy countries because in the countries where most of the population is quite poor and struggling to make a living, there is no 'awareness' of this 'necessity of conscious living' at all as they simply don't have the money to consider 'going green', to buy their products in health shops, get an electric car, have their house properly isolated or buy bio-degradable diapers for their children.

What is fascinating within this is that this very small percentage of humans that 'go green' and 'live consciously' have still not noticed that more than two thirds of the worlds population is not applying this lifestyle and consequently only perpetuating and adding to the global ecological crises that we face - and as the governments of the world aren't planning on giving every living being an unconditional income that would enable them to in fact apply the 'conscious living' for themselves as well, there is just no way that this entire 'going green' mentality is ever going to make any change in this world what so ever. It is plain to see, if one merely looks at reality as what is really going on in this world, that we're basically fucked and that 'conscious living' has not provided the answer/solution for anything at all.

So, obviously the question arises of 'why do these 'consciously living' beings in this world not realize that what they are doing is based on an illusion?', 'why have they not yet realized that this is not the solution, so they should stop what they're doing and find an actual solution?' - or is it that they don't really care about an actual solution for this world? - Is it that this entire 'conscious living' and 'going green' lifestyle is just that --a lifestyle like the latest 'style' in fashion that only serves the Image of Self, and not an actual real live expression sprung from the real awareness that if we do not start supporting earth, we will literally destroy everything here?

If human beings really cared about what happens to nature, to animals and to our fellow human beings, wouldn't we have already figured out that 'changing our lifestyle' is not the solution as these 'lifestyles' are still very much based on our capitalist, consumerist system that we exist in and that is in fact the cause for our disrespectful and abusive way of handling the earth we walk on? If any of us truly cared about earth, we would have stood up within the realization that the capitalist system must be stopped at all costs because it is nothing but an excuse for abuse - yet no one has truly stood up so far, we have all been much too willing to comply to bogus, fairytale solutions like 'going green' and 'conscious living' when, if we were to only take a moment to look at the practical effects, we would see that this is just us making ourselves believe that we are 'making a change' to make ourselves feel good about what we're doing - while what we're really doing is in fact deliberately ignoring the actual reality because the truth is that we don't truly care about this world, nature, animals and our fellow human beings. So, as long as we are able to, we'll just live out this life of pretense, which seems to be fairly easy as it gets supported by our environment as the capitalist system that we exist in.

Though, finally here are these human beings that had the guts to look themselves in the eyes, be honest with themselves and realize that we as humanity simply cannot continue living in this illusion anymore as the consequences are simply too grave. There just has to come a point where we stop and realize that things aren't magically going to fix themselves, as what we seem to secretly be hoping with our 'conscious living', 'going green' and even spirituality - we are going to have to face all that we have allowed to be created through our participation in all the systems that we were born into, that are all based on the capitalist monetary system of inequality, to eventually stop completely and start over with a system that is birthed from a real consideration of ourselves as living beings right here on earth - within the realization that the fact that we exist here on earth and in a way have the complete freedom to do with earth what we please, implies that we are responsible for all life on earth and that we therefore must take that responsibility, because if we don't - well, the results of that is what we face at this point in our 'human evolution'.

Investigate Equal Money, which is the only acceptable solution if we want to ever truly restore Earth's and our own dignity - The Equal Money System presents the real solution that considers changing the actual problem which is the entire monetary system in itself - wherein we will make sure that all human beings have an equal opportunity to live their life in dignity and self-respect and thus have the opportunity to respect Earth as the animal kingdom and nature so that we will eventually be able to truly live in a sustainable way here on Earth without abusing our position of power that we have taken on during our existence here on Earth and instead realize ourselves as the custodians of Earth instead of its Exploiters and Abusers.

2011 And God created Ritual Slaughtering

And God created the Ritual Slaughtering of an animal to be accepted into the kingdom of heaven. For example, in the Islamic Religion an animal that is deemed 'Halal' is slaughtered to remember some story about the Prophet Ibrahim that is written in the Koran. On this day almost every muslim family in the world slaughters an animal - without sedation as this is not 'Halal' - because it is tradition and because apparently they will not be sentenced to hell by Allah on Judgment Day.

Also on the seventh day after a child is born, a ritual slaughtering of an animal takes place - to apparently create a connection with God and to thank God for the blessing of the child.

What is 'Halal' and what is not 'Halal', meaning 'the right way' - is pondered and discussed and decided by a Muslim Council of theologists - which often results in speculation for example not sedating the animal before it is slaughtered is something of which they 'believe' is 'Halal' (the right way) because 'the Prophet did not sedate the animals that he sacrificed' - so, just to make sure they get into heaven, the animals will not be sedated before their throats get cut open.


Now, realizing that this is going on in the world - wherein human beings are simply slaughtering animals for no apparent reason but the belief that it will 'bring them closer to God' and 'God will love them if they do this' - leads one to question what kind of a God this is that would allow the blind killing of His creation as earth and the animal kingdom by Human Beings as beings who believe that they are 'Gods special children' and therefore they can abuse all of existence.

Would it not be more common sense that when someone who has participated in the ritual murder/slaughtering of animals wherein they were only considering gaining their personal little place in heaven next to God, not even really seeing what it is that they are doing unto another living being - when they die and get to Heaven and there they meet God, that instead of God saying 'well done' and padding them on the head, God would tell the being to stop and look behind them to the earth that they have left behind and that they have created, wherein they did nothing but abuse God's Creation, blindly following some belief as a tradition because of some words that were written by some guys in a book once.

God would ask 'Why the Fuck did you not sort out the shit on earth?', 'Why did you not create Heaven on earth, as this is your responsibility as the image and likeness of God?' - then he'd say 'now you're dead and all you've done when you were alive is allow life to be abused, raped, killed and consumed and you did nothing to stop it, you did not take care of my creation as the Custodian of Earth that you were supposed to be', 'you were a selfish bastard, who was only ever thinking about his own ass somewhere in some heaven that you will now never get to experience as your chance to in fact create heaven on earth has passed'.


It's time we as human beings living here on this earth together, start looking at the hell that we have been creating in our search for a private, personal heaven - not realizing that heaven can only exist if and when all of life exist in heaven, as heaven on earth. This is common sense - after all what kind of a God would allow a being to experience a personal, separate heaven while the rest of existence is suffering - except for a fake God who is only after separation as Power.

We do not accept fake Gods anymore - we stand up as all of existence as what is HERE, real. We stand as/for an Equal Money System, that will ensure the practical implementation of the 'Kingdom of Heaven' here on Earth, so all may live in Heaven on Earth, as how it was always supposed to be.

2011 Will cancer exist in an Equal Money System? How will cures be found in an EMS?

Within an Equal Money System, the main principle/law/objective, is 'doing what is best for all' 'giving as we would like to receive', so that definitely includes unconditional health care, to make sure that each being is being taken care of as how we ourselves would like to be taken care of.

So, there will most likely still be cancer in an equal money system, as an EMS isn't a magic wand that makes all 'bad' things go away. Though, within an EMS, the existence of diseases such as cancer, that occur quite often in people, will be looked at from every angle. Researchers and scientists, as beings who are interested in investigating illnesses and finding cures, will be given all the time, space and opportunity to experiment and 'look outside the box'. In the current system the possibilities of 'looking outside the box' and experimenting are very limited as only projects that will more or less have a set/definite outcome will get funds, as companies don't want to waste their money.

Within the principle of 'best for all', experimentation and 'looking outside the box' will very much be supported as it is this way that new methods and ways can be found, and 'wasting money' isn't even possible in EMS.

There will be many people who will want to do a job in the health care system, as many of us have friends and/or family that died of cancer or some other illness and because surely we don't want to die that way. So, within this, we realize that, what is best for all is what is best for me and vice versa.

2011 What for/how will military weapons be used in an Equal Money System?

Let's look at the point of 'having a military' that is in fact in complete contradiction of 'what is best for all' as 'having a military' is only considering 'what is best for MY/OUR country', which is like an extension of the ego wherein each individual wants/desires to protect himself from other people who are apparently 'threatening', not realizing that beings will only want to attack when they themselves feel threatened.

So, in an EMS, we realize that it is completely redundant to create unnecessary 'threats' by carrying weapons and creating armies, as this will only instigate the feeling within 'other countries' that they have to 'weaponize' also.

The ideal is to ban all weapons, because the design and manifestation of a weapon in itself represents 'destruction', which is obviously unacceptable. Though the existence of weapons as 'means of destruction' within our current world, says a lot about the human being, as who/what we have allowed ourselves to become, on this planet.

2011 What happens to the money that I have when an Equal Money System is enforced?

So, what will happen to my savings and the 'extra money' that I have when an Equal Money System is in place?

Will I get to keep it or do I have to give it up?

Ok, with an Equal Money System, the key objective is to start over, to create a completely new system, with a new currency (Equalities – The Symbol: Є), so yes, the money you had been saving and building up will have no value anymore.

Though, your savings becoming invalid doesn't mean anything like 'inflation' where the currency of the money becomes 'worthless' and the people using the money are suddenly left with nothing, because the entire point of the Equal Money System is to provide for each being unconditionally.

So, you will have enough money to pay for everything that needs to be paid for, so from that perspective you will not need 'savings' anymore as money that most people only save up 'for a rainy day' anyways. There will be no more rainy days in an Equal Money System ever again, no more inflation, no more 'countries going bankrupt', no more economic crises, no more raising taxes, so in essence: no more uncertainty and insecurity towards the future.

Once an Equal Money System is in place, it will be here forever, because this is the only system that can not go bankrupt, that will not waver, as this system is built on the one single principle that is able to stand unto eternity, the principle of 'doing what is best for all', which is a principle that cannot be attacked or counter-argumented as any and all counterarguments to this principle is of self interest and selfishness, and selfishness is unacceptable within this reality where we are millions of beings living on one planet, so therefore we must take all those beings into the equation when making decisions and creating/implementing a system.

So then what about the point of 'I have been working all my life to save up this money, so it would be unfair to have to now give it up, it would be like giving up my life'. First of all, a statement such as this is only made within the belief of human beings that we are completely defined by the money that we have. Within the current system human beings are , all throughout their lives, only worried and thinking about money, only thinking about what they have and will have and what is in their bank account and savings account, so it is as though we have BECOME the money that we have because we've literally built our lives around it, so it would then feel as though our life would be taken away from us if our money were to be taken away from us.

What must be realized here, however, is that this is but a mind-set/belief/idea, that doesn't actually consider the physical reality and requirements. It is a mind-set that is entirely cultivated by the design of the current system, wherein money rules our lives and wherein we have placed value unto ourselves based on the amount of money that we have.

I imagine it would be difficult for older citizens to give up their savings as they have completely integrated this mind-set within themselves and where the savings that they have saved up throughout their entire life, now seems to be the only thing that gives some 'value' to their ending life.

Within an Equal Money System, it is this very mind-set that changes, so it is not about 'having to give up your savings/money' and thus apparently becoming 'worth less', it is about realizing that money does not determine the value of who you are and of your life.

Also, obviously the richest people will be the biggest protestors to this point of the EMS as they have been able to live a life within the belief/feeling that they as beings and their lives are worth so much more than all the lives of those people with much less or no money, as the money that they have gives them a position of 'power' because in the current system, 'money=power'. So it is this feeling of apparently 'having power over' everyone else, that they will not want to give up. Though thankfully, due to what they desired and created, the 'richest' in this world, as the 'elite' is but a minority-group, and in the EMS the majority rules.

Also a reason why people tend to extensively save the money that they have earned and worked for in their life, is so that they can pass these savings on to their children, so that their children may have a 'better'/'easier' life. So this is an important point to consider with regards to 'having no heritage to pass on'. Now, again, this point has only been important in the current system wherein you have to 'fight/struggle to survive' and wherein it is possible to 'lose everything' and therefore parents feel the need/desire to make sure that this will never happen to their offspring. So the desire to save up as much as we can, is only experienced due to fear of the opposite (=fear of losing it all), a fear that will not be able to exist in an Equal Money System, as all will unconditionally be taken care of. So the point of 'being able to have a good/easy life' is not even in question in an EMS.
