become ours. We cant resist them because we are included in this system.

We build such an environment together, but in fact, every one of us has to learn how to do that. Our goal is to consciously enter the next degree with the understanding of what we do. For the first time, we become the creators of a new level of existence. Practically speaking, mankind doesnt create anything specific, but rather consciously adjusts itself to this system Thereby, humanity begins to understand the whole system of nature: how the world works and why things happens this way and not the other. Sooner or later, we will comprehend it, but the question is at what price. Its either we go through great sufferings that will force us to change or we build a society that beckons us, adjusts us to this integral nature, and we consciously, with understanding, aspire to it with our desire and thus make our world better.

The Power of Environment

How do we come to be able to feel ourselves and others unified, as one whole? Its done by building a certain environment, and that doesnt even need to be proved. Out of everything that surrounds us, an environment is the only tool that is capable of influencing us and with which we can influence ourselves. If I influence others and arrange everything in such a way that they influence me in a certain way, this influence, moving through them and coming back to me, is perceived by me as an external influence. And that external influence changes me. An environment builds a person. If a child is left in the woods, he will grow into the same animal like those that surround him. If he or she is sent into a good pre-school and school, he will become what that environment builds out of him or her. Therefore, we only have to care about the environment. The environment can make us become anyone. An environment has power over us specifically because we are integrally connected. Each of us is a part of the whole system, a small cell in a huge organism, and its through this organism that its idea, power, plan, precise thoughts, and feelings

im not telling you its going be easy, im telling you its going to be worth it.

Pentagon Prepares For Economic Warfare

From poorrichards-blog: The guests were assembled in the Warfare Analysis Laboratory, surrounded by uniformed officers from the highest levels of the Pentagon and a dizzying array of screens normally used to simulate nuclear world war. Behind the scenes, the military are worried about the market. For who owns much of this debt? China, the USs most powerful rival and threat. And that makes America vulnerable to a new kind of bloodless but ruthless war. The group was split into five teams: America, Russia, China, Pacific Rim, and a grey team, representing shady outfits such as terrorist organizations. They were sent into bunker rooms and told to use financial or economic tools currency, debt, stocks, gold to bring their enemies to their knees. Everything was conducted via computer, and they could be as devious and ruthless as they liked. When the game was halted, the result left the military men quiet and sobered. Why did the bankers scare the soldiers? The answer lies in the way the world is now interconnected as never before. Over the past few years, China has been buying up US government debt and is now its biggest holder. If China were to dump this debt, it would totally screw with the economy. The markets are now global; the holdings in each others finances are deep, and technical ability to manipulate them -instantaneous. In the 1970s the West feared that its enemies had their fingers on a nuclear button. The modern equivalent may be Chinas ability to press the button on US Treasury bills.

China is, Professor Bracken says, the huge threat, but Russia, with its oil and gas, has shown no compunction in waging economic war on its neighbors, and could do so on a larger scale. Another possibility is that major oil-producing countries could destabilize America by switching to euros instead of dollars as the currency in which oil is priced so-called petro-dollar warfare. Or a terrorist organization might trigger a financial crash via some kind of shady hedge fund or computer attack. At the end of that Pentagon session, the 80odd players returned from their bunkers and assessed the damage. China won, without so much as reaching for a gun. And the soldiers looked at each other and wondered if it was still only a game. There is nothing surprising in the results of the economic war played out by their rules. But the experts were wrong: Namely due to total interconnection, there are no winners or losers in this war. Everyone will lose, and the only way out is to sequentially bring everyone to a single global community with reasonable consumption.

Time that used to be spent together in the community is now spent alone in front of the screen. Robert Putnam, the leading scholar of Americas declining sense of community, has found that TV viewing is the central explanation of the decline of social capital, the trust that binds communities together. Americas TV ownership is almost entirely in private hands, and owners make much of their money through relentless advertising. Effective advertising campaigns, appealing to unconscious urges typically related to food, sex, and status create cravings for products and purchases that have little real value for consumers or society. American politicians are now brand names, packaged like breakfast cereal. Anybody and any idea can be sold with a bright ribbon and a catchy jingle. All roads to power in America lead through TV, and all access to TV depends on big money. This simple logic has put American politics in the hands of the rich as never before. The American Academy of Pediatrics recently warned that TV viewing by young children is dangerous for their brain development, and called on parents to keep children under two away from the TV and similar media. We can to change TV from being commercial and egoistic to socially useful only by realizing the need for positive social influence on everyone, which will inspire us to unite and to become similar to the global interconnection developing between us. TV will become the source of integral education and training and will help us create a new society that will be similar to unified nature. As a result, the crisis will turn into well-being.

A Nation Of Vidiots
Jeffrey D. Sachs, Professor of Economics and Director of the Earth Institute at Columbia University, Special Adviser to United Nations Secretary-General on the Millennium Development Goals: The past half-century has been the age of electronic mass media. Television has reshaped society in every corner of the world. Now an explosion of new media devices is joining the TV set: DVDs, computers, game boxes, smart phones, and more. A growing body of evidence suggests that this media proliferation creates ill effects.
