- [Instructor] Throughout this series,
we've talked a lot about the interconnection
between money and spirituality
and evolving our spiritual relationship with money as well.
And all along the way,
we've been striving towards this end goal for the series.
Ultimately ending with the question,
is it possible for everyone on earth
to have all of the resources they need,
not only to survive, but to live comfortably
and in harmony with the world and each other?
It is a simple fact that at the moment
our resources are not spread out
in a way to reach this goal.
But the question is are there really enough resources
in the first place?
Our thoughts on this mirrors the thinking of Gandhi
who says, "The world has enough for everyone's need,
"but not enough for everyone's greed."
Humans have undoubtedly been increasing
their density on earth quite rapidly in recent history.
In the last 10,000 years,
we've gone from no more than several million humans
to nearly 8 billion strong.
Given our current system of resource management,
which for the most part is based on capitalism
and the potential growth of the population
to 11 billion by the 22nd century,
we are in a time unlike any other
as the population has never been this high before
and there is no historical precedent
to tell us whether our current system
is sustainable in the longterm.
But researchers have another concern,
not with a number of people,
but with our unsustainable rate of consumption,
something that we looked at previously.
So far, as we've been exploring money
and spirituality together, one of the primary comments
in the opposition to this exploration
has been that the existing financial systems are corrupt
because it allows some people
to have millions or billions of dollars
and others to have absolutely nothing.
So of course, a shift to a different kind
of financial system for us as a species seems to make sense.
Discussions of a resource-based economy
often emerges in this kind of conversation,
but what is it really going to take to get us there?
And can it really work?
The challenge here is that we exist in a world
of many different systems
and these systems were designed in particular ways
based on existing levels of consciousness
that we had attained.
If we were to watch human evolution
over the last several thousand years,
we would see this continuum of developing systems
and the introduction of new systems
as old ones became out of date.
This is important for us to realize,
especially for those of us who have the mentality
of smash the old paradigm
because doing so leaves us with anarchy
and may not actually support us
in moving to a new better system for all of humanity.
It's for this reason
we made the spiritual money series at all.
As we found that shifting our thinking first,
it supports our evolution
instead of just mindlessly rebelling against
and destroying something that we don't like.
As humanity continues to evolve
over the next 10, 20, 50 100 years and beyond,
we should be striving to develop
and implement new strategies, solutions, technologies
and most importantly, ways of thinking
into our social and economic systems,
allowing us to become more harmony
with each other and nature.
And when opportunities arise to make quantum leaps
like implementing a full-scale resource-based economy,
we shouldn't be afraid
to take that leap of faith and try it.
Worst case scenario, we fail
providing us with valuable lessons on how to do it better
and then we do it better and then we win.
It's very critical that we realize this,
that if we approach money
and economic systems with a destructive attitude,
we will only create more destruction.
Sometimes destruction is necessary,
but we must also be mindful
that the best approach is a creative one,
where destruction of the old is just a natural byproduct
as people utilize new technologies in brilliant ways,
supporting humanity and becoming more conscious themselves
and the world around them.
Looking at the way that our species acts,
at least right now,
is that not everyone is thinking for themselves.
Most humans act like pack animals,
following the herd, the ideas, the systems
and guidelines that've been established
by others around them.
Even most of our opinions are not our own,
but often a regurgitation of things that we've heard
and resonated with in some way.
Because of this,
we are conditioned to fight each other a lot
because that's what we're spoonfed so often,
such as, for example, in political media,
left-wing this, right-wing that.
Didn't anyone tell the news that the left wing
and right wing are a part of the same bird?
Anyway, this same challenge seems to be at the heart
of why so many people dislike capitalism
because there're system builders
with a lot of resources at their disposal
who implement systems for the masses to follow
that generally don't encourage health, wellness,
or freedom of thought.
However, the seeds of our salvation
can be found in the same systems.
If freethinkers and system builders
could exist within the capitalistic model
and implement solutions and systems on a large scale
for millions or billions of people to use
that encourages connections, health and wellness,
we would see a new world so quickly
as humanities collectively wakes up to a higher truth
and insists on living more in alignment
and harmony with themselves and the universe.
The capitalistic model could actually be used
to create a resource-based economy
without having to see our civilizations
collapse in the process.
Shifting to a resource-based economy is completely possible,
but in order to truly see something like this manifest,
we first have to shift our way of thinking.
Mindlessly rebelling against the old paradigm,
won't actually create anything new.
It's going to take each of us shifting
and living differently
until we hit that point of critical mass
and enough people act as creators and make something new
that replaces the old paradigm altogether.
It's for this reason
we've been exploring money and spirituality
because we found that it was important
to bring a holistic approach to all of the aspects of life
and money is a very root chakra issue,
a foundational aspect of life that we have to overcome
if we want to see the whole world thrive.
Part of that is that even if we existed
in poverty for a long time,
we don't have to stay there.
We can participate in the existing systems
and become a conscious creator
and change the world around us
and even generate resources in the process to do so.
Like him or hate him,
I feel Elon Musk is a really good example of this.
Utilizing the existing systems and technologies,
He's moved humanity forward in huge ways,
such as developing vehicles
that are light years ahead of any other vehicle technology.
You can literally fall asleep at the wheel of a Tesla
and you're almost guaranteed not to crash.
Not to mention, his other work
inspires dreams of colonizing
other parts of the solar system.
So the question then becomes,
what are you creating in your life actively?
What are your dreams in life?
And in what ways are you moving towards them?
If you are someone who has unconsciously
allowed the world to crush your dreams
and get the better of you, don't worry.
You're not alone and there is good news.
There's something you can do about it.
It all begins with a shift in consciousness,
a shift in thinking.
When you look at the world differently,
look at limitations and see opportunities,
it empowers you with the freedom to behave differently too,
to take actions rooted in possibility.
It is only when we believe the existing story,
when we believe that there is nothing we can do
about the circumstances of our lives,
that we are disempowered to do anything about it.
Today, I'd like to invite you
to cast off your limitations where you have them,
go inside and connect with your dreams,
your vision for your life
and then begin to move towards it.
And if you don't know where to start
and you're looking for some help,
you're invited to come
and check out our special nine hour long masterclass
called spiritual money mastery.
This workshop goes deep
into everything we've learned about money as energy
and how to utilize money as a tool
for being in service to humanity.
The more that we collectively shift this perspective,
the faster we can create a new paradigm of life for us all.
With that, thank you so much for joining us
on this journey into spiritual wealth
and we'll see you again soon for even more spirit science.
