Money: Is the solution or the problem?


Would like to know the person on this planet for a whole day to being conscious, has not thought at all about the money. We all think about it, but do we really know what is money? Do we feel love for him or are his slaves? Let us see we draw clear.


If we stick to the definition we can give any dictionary or encyclopedia will get something like this: Money, exchange through common and generally accepted by a society that is used to pay for goods, services, and any obligations (debts). But we will give a lecture on economics, you'd better focus on what we think most people about money.
If I ask the question, what is money? it is likely that quickly comes to your mind the image of coins and bills, if I said that's not the money but coins and bills are what represent materially likely to continue meditating on the question and possibly the following to think about is how to get it, spend it, keep it, "what would I do if I have x million ..." etc, but you will not have a clear answer of what it really is. Many people believe that money is happiness and if it is not at least get close enough to it and who does not think so is because it does not, others think that is the source of all evil, and people change for the worse when manage large amounts of it, and others simply live longing for their arrival and true become addicted to it, even without it.

    If anything is clear to us that the money exists, we all know and use it, but as we said before the money is not the coins and bills that we carry or the numbers you see when you look at our bank account, that are material representations of it to be controlled in a practical way in this world. Really the money is more abstract than that, is a value, a promise of benefit, that there is something that comes in the wake of that coin or paper, we accept this system assuming that others will continue to accept it.



    This system analyzed calmly see that it is an energy system, the money movements are really energy movements (in future posts we'll talk about it), then we can say that money is a unit of measurement of vital force, so much so when people make something or provide a service to another place their price, other than for the materials used, for the life time assigned to that activity, the energy used, so we could say that the amount of money one has is proportional to the energy that has been used to obtain it (not just physical energy).

    At this point we can say that money is the unit of a game system that we have all accepted the rules. The more money we have, we have managed to accumulate more power and proportionately more than it can sue, ie have more power over others, which leads us to think that money is not the great problem of the huge global imbalance, but rather the sense of greed, attachment to material things, that humans blinded by this destructive fever prepended to love that is so important to lead to happiness.

    We are not slaves of money, if you make your regular relaxation exercise and try to investigate this issue more clearly see there is really no material things of this life that enslaves us, but it is only our mind that we subordinates with his insistence negative feelings of greed and greed that overshadows the love, and try to replace material possessions only give us small moments of pleasure (not happiness).

    But with that, we are in material life, we need things to live, but maybe we should change the focus. Question: Can we bring / create wealth (rather than money) to our lives? The answer, as always, so much love in future posts.
