The Evolution of the Trinity of Agriculture, Money & Usury
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Since the Spring of 2015, I had to put my life of house-less and moneyless freedom on hold to be a live-in caretaker for my aging parents. My dad finally passed away last February 2016, so now I just care for my mom. With a few exceptions, I still don't take or use money for myself. But I did have to get a state ID, I manage my mom's finances, I pay her bills, and I shop for her, dealing with general bureaucracy. I don't have a driver's license, though I've been offered the gift of a car several times but have refused it. I feel as passionate as ever about a moneyless world, and I hope to return to moneyless living. I Know It Is Possible To Live With Zero Money, Abundantly How? Because it has happened to me, as it's happening to ants and deer and slugs and sparrows
and bacteria and atoms and galaxies.
That's right, it's
Nothing Special.
It's happening to the whole, infinite universe
outside our teeny-tiny itty-bitty Babylon we call "civilization"
(which we think is the whole universe).
Yup, I boast!
I boast about
Nothing Special. Let the Nothing-Specials boast,
for Babylon has boasted its delusions of "value" & "progress",
and trampled Nature,
shat on Beauty,
long enough.
Enough
I've been living without a cent to my name since the autumn of 2000 (with a month's exception during my first year). I don't use or accept money or conscious barter, and I don't take food stamps or other government dole (not that I think those things are bad or that those who use them are in any way inferior).
And, after years of doing this, to my joy, I've learned there are other people in the world doing the same.
Why?
I simply got tired of acknowledging as real
this most common world-wide belief called money!
I simply got tired of being unreal. Money is one of those intriguing things that becomes real because you believe it is real.
Wild Nature, outside civilization,
runs on gift economy:
"freely give, freely receive." Thus it is balanced. Commercial civilization runs
on thought of credit and debt
(knowledge of good & evil);
thus it is imbalanced. What nation on earth can even balance its own budget or environment?
Gift Economy is Faith, Grace, Love --the message at the heart of every religion,
though rejected by virtually every religious institution. The proof is inside you: Wild Nature is your True Nature, crucified by commercial civilization.
One Day, in the Present,
we will dis-cover
True Civilization:
New Jerusalem,
descending from Now,
Above!
--yes, Artistic Splendor
that makes what we now call "civilization"
pale to absurdity!
