A Shift in Consciousness

It's not that hard.

21 comments Adbusters, 27 February 2012

The status quo has us at each other’s throats. Mainstream economics sees this as the social ideal. More for you is less for me. Antagonism keeps the cash flowing. Maximize each moment lest someone else gain the market advantage on you. This sounds miserable, and it is, and yet it remains the system that most of us live every day. It’s time for a new model. Occupy economics reaches to a much more historical and spiritual precept. An idea rooted in the concept of love and cooperation: that more for you is more for me. Author of Sacred Economics, Charles Eisenstein, explains Occupy’s new logic of the heart.

Stream Sacred Economics short film in its entirety on March 1.

This is the spirit we need! Charles Eisenstein is having a great vision of a possible future. The only problem is how to get there, which seems to be always the difficult point of every good proposal. Even though we do not know, time will pass and people will come to the streets.

All you need is Love.

Love is all you need.

You will run out of money but you won't run out of Love.
