Red Ray and financial catalyst

[vervex]

Thank you for sharing this perspective Plenum. I agree that the catalyst of personal finances can relate to one's survival in society. I would add that the social structure we are part of has made it so that we have become dependent on this tool of exchange in order to sustain; if we still lived close to nature, if we cultivated the land and sewed our own clothes as our ancestors did, survival would be based on acquired practical skills and the abundance of raw resources to build, feed, heal and clothe ourselves. That being said, there are countless advantages which have emerged from living in society, but with them came new sets of issues and new catalysts.

"I don't have to live. I don't have to eat or drink. I don't have to have money. I will continue to be conscious regardless, whether in this plane or another."

I call this faith -- absolute faith.

While I agree with you, I find this view a bit extremist. We seek sustenance because we want to fulfill a desire, the desire to be incarnate a this time on Earth. And so long we choose to pursue this desire, we will have to face the catalyst of survival. Perhaps adopting such view could help one be at peace with their decision to come here in the first place but once you embody that desire, does it not become a redundant statement? Personally, I never felt obliged to be here, yet I enjoy my life and I would like it to last as long as humanly possible; thus I seek sustenance. I'm not really afraid of death or starvation; both situations I would like to avoid for now though for obvious reasons I can say finally that in my case, I would most probably attempt to escape pain more than anything else, not so much an anxiety related to living (which I don't have, as far as I know). But indeed, in the end, all will be well.
