The Zen, Tao, and Tantra of Money
Jesus had driven the money dealers out of the temple and doubted that the rich people could reach heaven. So probably money is bad and there is no such thing as spirituality of money. The approach towards money is not much more friendly in other religions. And the mystics who kept their things from organised religion, seeking enlightenment in their hermitages? You do not need money as a hermit.
There may have been different approaches. There have been kings who were mystics. But curiously we do not hear as much of those as of the anti-financial religious messengers.

Everybody can see it: Austerity does not save a bankrupt state. It just accelerates the deflation.
State bankruptcies happened all the time in history. Defaulting opens a lot of chances. The problem in Greece, however, is that there is not much there which would motivate lenders to give fresh money for after a default. Argentina has at least a lot of steaks. Greece can sell a lot of islands, thats it.
(The very same day I was proven wrong by a nice article at spiegel.de: Sechs griechische Lichtblicke.)
Do not get me wrong. It is almost the country in the world that I love most. And it really should build on the fact that it once was home to a great time of philosophy.
The only way of rescue (same way for Berlin, where I live) is: Singaporization. What does that mean?

We want to know. We want to make money with our Forex trading. And we want to transfer our money into other currencies when the Euro shit hits the fan. Actually, we would like to have done that already before. As the collapse may come faster as we can act.

How long will it take? I mean a million from zero. It is obviosuly easy to make a million from a billion for politicians and bankers these days. That is of course not what I mean. I want to have a million within a year. (I really need that, as I still think that the global finacial situation will get worse. I am grateful to Chancellor Merkel to have produced some slowing of the process, but I need to be ready to buy me in somewhere for my old age. Buy some nice land with a water source.)
A million of what? Will we still have US-Dollars or Euro? I really am not sure about that. A million Swiss Franc? Not so sure about them either. Anyway, a million is a kind of symbolic quantity of money. We want to be able to diversify and to switch currencies as needed. Probably there is some nice money at Persian Gulf Emirates, or in Singapore, Australian Dollar looks fine, what about the Russian Ruble. I want to make money enough to relax. I am less interested in the quantity than in the way itself.

I had a post written, in which I hated the leftists of Foodwatch for campaigning against commodity future speculation (which is or was my occupation). You can read it as an pdf-file attached: Speculation cannot cause Starvation. (I probably should declare that in no way I am comparing anybody to the Nazis who closed down the Hamburg Coffee Futures Exchange in 1933.)
But I had to think the whole thing over. I do not want to offend anybody. I want to stay positive. I want to have the spiritual view and attitude. What is that supposed to be? Hmm, a view under the frames of: “Everything is as it is and it is pefect!” “Judge from heart and consciousness, leave the mind aside!” “Everybody acts with a positive intention!”

To the young people who are marching and sitting-in at banking places over the world, a movement called “Occupy Wall Street”: You are dramatically manipulated, misled, and wrong!.
You really need to understand what is going on. This world is going to change and you have no idea where to actively change it to and will just either do a new run of the old thing or try a stupid thing like communism again.

Wealth starts with the individual. If you want an affluent earth where every human being gets fed, has shelter, receives education, start with yourself. Create financial overflow. First yourself. Then support and finance young people.
The starting point is your resolution. It should be worded in a way that brings into reality what you really want. Bad wording of a resolution sentence is like a bad magic spell: It may produce unwanted side-effects or just not work.

There is only one way. There is only one way to create a world with wealth and financial security for every human being. It starts within everybody. Only when every human being puts the inner controls on “Overflow”, “”Sharing my Abundance”, “I am Rich and Earth is Rich and the Universe Gives”, and the like, we will have a world of bliss.
“Every human beging” is definitely a much too high figure. How about a percent of the population? How about the opinion leaders? How about me and you? Let us start, let us be avantgarde.
We want to share some views on how to set the inner controls.

We experience the downgoing of major currencies and stock markets. We may have crashs and deflation and difficult times. Does it make sense to start a business now, trying to get something affluent going, where everywhere is bancruptcy?
Maybe the times of decline are best suited for starting a profitable enterprise.

We are living in the days of the great meltdown. It melts in steps and there is a mixture of outrage and denial, but we see it happening.
There is need for a new theory of money. So that the new money is not just a restart of the old system but a better one. Although, I have to say, that I actually think, that the existing system is not that bad. It just needs to really use the laws and call insolvent states, banks, and companies bankrupt and close them down. (Who needs parliaments and governments anyway?)
