Earth Can’t Survive Unless Spiritually-Inclined People Begin Pursuing Money

It’s a big responsibility you’re neglecting

One of the greatest thinkers of the 20th century, Sri Aurobindo, once remarked that the frequency of money had long been held (and trapped) in degenerated hands.

Ever since the ‘awakened’ members of our species turned toward a minimalistic, anti-material way of life, the neutral force of abundance had no wholesome place to go.

It naturally was drawn to whatever was most drawn to it.

Which was no longer the philanthropic, socially engaged, and mystically-aligned human of ancient eras, but the short-sighted devotees of pure power.

If you think about it, this paradigm explains a lot.

You’ve probably felt some frustration at the struggle to break free from how money always flow into the wrong hands.

Cheap trends, soulless pop culture, and white lies sell best — while genuine artistry always falls short of the digits they deserve.

You might also be frustrated by the fact that spiritual expansion is just so fulfilling compared to the cheap impermanency of material affairs.

Why can’t we just vibe and live simply? Oh, because we need money for that. Damn.

These sentiments are the natural expression of humanity’s collective karmic history over the past few millennia. Thoughts are universally, and not individually rooted.

But something is changing.

There’s no longer any practical possibility for us mystic folks to band together & build hermitages in the mountains anymore.

Our money power, in that paradigm, has run dry, and we’re stuck with our backs against the wall. Reincarnated in the modern West, away from our ancient homes.

We have no choice but to finally enact an astral counter-assault — or quite simply, as the investor Chamath Pahilapitiya puts it, change the world for the better, simply by putting more wealth into the right hands.

There’s a higher calling for us, who are attuned to the subtler realms of causation.

We are meant to change this world using our gifts, not live in the world despite them.

This is literally geopolitics, not intangible conspiracy.

To take back the universal money-power, we should know what we’re up against.

If you think about money in a way that is attractive enough to its frequency, it will come to you.

So you can imagine what happened when the mystics of the world began totally shunning this dimension of life 2,500–2,000 years ago.

When world-transcending Buddhist and Christian monasticism became the most popular ideals of spirituality.

It created the seeds for a global dark era: the destruction of pretty much every Ancient library on the planet, from Egypt to India to China, at the hands of marauding warlords or despotic leaders.

The newly available money-power had naturally fallen into the hands most open and eager to receive it, which were not concerned with its ethical use.

Then came colonialism, in which the West took over and practically demolished the East, which has for long been humanity’s central bastion of spiritual thought.

But we are on the verge of a new global reality.

By the end of this century, Nigeria, Indonesia, India, and China will be the most populated and richest of the non-Western powers.

These countries are civilization-states, not colonial settler ones.

This means they have the vision to craft a vision for humanity that isn’t just an existence of consuming cheap sense pleasures under meaningless capitalism.

They have the potential to infuse life back into the pursuit of wealth.

The more people change the way they think about wealth, the easier it will be for people to live differently. (Because, you know, most thoughts are not individually rooted).

Sri Aurobindo extensively emphasized how spirituality should be about divinizing and elevating this world, rather than escaping it. And wealth carries a central role in that mission!

Money was actually deified and worshipped as a goddess in Ancient India, which was the richest country on the planet for most of our history.

It was seen as a tool to carry out activities for the betterment of all life, not a crutch to aggregate our egos and dominate the world.

Money can be a vehicle for virtue and spiritual evolution, as it was for centuries in all the Eastern nations influenced by Mahayana Buddhism & its emphasis on generosity.

It doesn’t have to be a ‘tainted’ source of corruption that spiritual people run from, but a direct sign of the universe’s abundance.

If there is any ‘minimalist’ ascetic tendency that remains in our pursuit of wealth, it may very well be the spirit of of giving away everything, and leaving little for ourselves.

But ironically, energy flows into vacuums.

So this won’t result in poverty but an even greater flow of money power into those hands who know how to wield it best.

The future will be compassionately rich, and visionarily abundant — and it can start nowhere other than you and how you think about wealth.

All it takes is a single chosen domino to fall at the right moment.
