Done

The lengths some go to in order to gather and accumulate wealth. No, nothing's wrong with wealth. Yet what is the purpose of hoarding more than you would ever need? What is the use? Wealth is powerful. It can build hospitals and roads, feed babies, educate, give bikes to those without wheels and musical instruments to those who love music. This obsession with extracting more and more is obscene. Lying, cheating, intimidating, all just to have it for the sake of having it. This need to possess. There is nothing we can inherently possess. Possession means walls and barriers. It causes fights and wars and, inevitably, suffering. Because nothing is created or destroyed. It is only transferred. And this unconscious and hungry transfer has made the losers angry and scared and the winners scared and angry. A great illusion has guided decision-making. It is called ownership. It sits within another illusion called separation, me versus you, us versus them. We are reaching a tipping point. The time to dismantle an antiquated paradigm has arrived.
