Imagine no possessions. I wonder if you can. What would a world without money look like? Would society be better off? Would it eliminate greed or hunger? Would we be happier? How would you get the things you need?

Because the Ego (the guardian of individuality) itself possesses the electric momentum of Activity-Creativity and the emotional magnetic impulses of -Bonding-Rejection, - whatever is born of the -Ego-drive- by its thoughts, feelings and actions, is charged with physical electromagnetic life which will produce replica life forms and will be eventually materialized within the life of the Ego-creator.
These created forms not only manifest eventually as experiences but also disturb the functioning of the physical processes of their creator and are the origin of physical discomforts or viruses or diseases.
-
Therefore, is it a great cause for rejoicing when the soul emerges from its encapsulating human consciousness of the Ego (the guardian of individuality, for the ascending spiritual consciousness will create the harmonious life-giving conditions it holds in consciousness. Conversely, it is a cause for sorrow while the human consciousness is submerged in Ego control, producing upsets, trials and tribulations both in life experiences and the physical condition itself.
Therefore, I tell you: if you do not like the world, you have it within your power to change the -conditions of existence, - right where you are - if you have the faith and consistent will to do so.
I repeat in another form to gain your attention:
If you continue in your present level of human functioning and thought, you will only experience your present level of human existence.
You will be bound down to working hard for a paltry living, beset by numerous problems, such as poverty, ill-health, addictions, immobilized by prostrating fear and exposed to ill-intentioned attacks of all kinds.
You will be burdened by present conditions until you understand how to change them.
This is the golden opportunity to take control of your lives as never before, by getting control of your thoughts and emotions - the electrical and magnetic impulses - the blueprints of your future experiences.
For - you are like potters possessing clay and daily shaping pots and utensils for your use.
CONSCIOUSNESS is the clay - the substance with which you make your life - and every condition pertaining to it. You, alone, shape your life into the forms you experience.
By your thoughts, you can change your personal future - if you will but accept the Christ Letters, A Course In Miracles and A Course Of Love.
You can affect your environment, your homes, families, work, the people you associate with, and even plants, animals and climate.
Whatever you hold steadfastly in mind externalizes.

This video only touches on the question, -What if we suddenly stopped using money? - In which case, yes - our world would turn into chaos.
A world or country without money could exist, but it would require for people to live with a completely different mindset, which we currently can't even image having.
If money or trade (e. g. -Here's item A in exchange for item B-) never existed, people would need to be forced to choose their role in society, i. e. pick a job that they would prefer to do. There would be no poverty and everyone would have equal opportunities in life, if you were hungry, you'd just go to the local -grocery store- and pick what you want. Want a nice home? With no money to measure someone's status, everyone would likely create and move into the best available houses at that time.
Would a world where you work for free and you get everything for free work? Yes, but again - would require a law that forces people to choose a role in the society in order for the society to evolve. And if money was never invented, people would likely be less greedy and have a greater sense of unity and equality.
Another option is - Could we create such a country in our current world and time? Possible - yes. Likelihood of it failing - almost guaranteed because of the mindset people are so used to living with - the need for power and to own more than others. In order to form a no-money country, we would need to somehow gather a large group of people who have a -We are equal and must do our part to maintain this society- mindset, have a diverse set of skills/knowledge, and have a self-sufficient land that would not require the assistance of other countries (otherwise it would again require money or trade. Block off the country from entry, so others don't come looting, have the necessary wind, sun, water, land and power resources, and place the people inside - it could work. But again, would require a law requiring people to have a job, so there's no one who is not contributing to the society.
We are far from any of this.

I believe we humans will in the near future kill each other to near extinction. Only then can we start a new world without currency and rebuilt a new civilization without greed and hate towards each other. Only in the brink of extinction will we ever come together and form a world as such. Just look at all the endangered species we have in the world, only when they are hunted down extinction, and only then we as human will open our eyes and impose sanctions on the nearly extinct species. God said if you put your faith in man he will fail you everytime. We can only wish for now. I know you-re not gonna like it but we-re all gonna die wheather you like it or not it-s inevitable. For all it-s worth I-ve already lost faith in us human.

Sounds like a paid nonsense. Why would crime rise, especially to get goods, when it has no value? Just think about it, if you see someone that has a fancy watch or a car or a plane, you don't need to get those goods from that person, you just go to the factory of those goods and get one or two, but in the end those goods would serve no purpose since they no longer provide status due to its value.
Would it be a chaos at first? Very possible, but if people actually understand that the value is not in how much you have, but in how much you know and help others, all the chaos would quickly subside.

If money was abolished, we-d live naturally, bartering and trading, hunting for, and growing our own food. If our food is not grown or caught by our own hands we-re not eating anything that is freshly grown. And just like in this video, they use and manipulate the way of life they created for us to go by as a form of fear
Noting is going to happen that I think is going to happen
We create what we think is going to happen in our minds when it's just fear itself
Fear is apart of that illusion

Without money, companies wouldn't be obliged to produce more and more profits for investors' sake. Businesses would work for society- to meet people's needs and not few investors that fund them. Without money, none of the bad games of money would exist. No corruption. No poverty. No ruining of careers for pursuit of money. The work people do would be meaningful. People would become more caring because they would first think of people, not money in every act they do.
reply

Wait. so without money. we'd just use other commodities and the ability to defend them as -currency-? So you've just demonstrated how money is violence and states organize to control that violence. It's not that money actually holds society together. It's that greedy and violent humans organize to force the rest of us into their money religion. You think everyone would naturally revert to resource feudalism without money. This is a self-own.
reply

Why is this even a thing, you can't get rid of money, it's eternal. Even if you burn every dollar bill, people will just use bottle caps like fallout or something similar. Money also isn't a physical thing. It only exists in the human mind of which because humans are the way when are we will never be able to work and function as a group without it. Even caveman had it. They would trade with each other and have values placed on things.

If everybody loved each other the way God loves us money wouldn-t be a currency of exchange because everything would be out of love. For instance - I-ll cut your hair because I love you. And Ik out of love you-ll do something for me-. But in this world nothing is free there has to be a middle man - money- the currency of money replaces the currency of love. Otherwise we-ll be in -paradise- no evil would exist just pure love
reply

-people won't work without pay-. wrong
also, u forget to mention the threat of sacking in the workplace. it's not just a matter of working that gets u money. and what about the emotional toll of the latter. does that not count? in which case, we can no longer be classified as being 'alive'? thus our present economy discriminates against sensitive people?

reply

I think you went off topic to quickly, really thought you were about to share some good insight on leaving without money, turns out you only referred to what will happen when we stop having money, bit misleading but fine, thanks for sharing the obvious on a society already addicted to money rather than a society bulit without money as the head line indicates.
reply

There are so many bizarre assumptions here. Literally nearly 50% of productive America work goes outside of the market economy. These are things like household chores, emotional and social labor in relationships, care giving civic activities, friendships, etc. Also, this video doesn't mention abundance (proliferation of goods, etc) due to AI.
reply

human greed knows no bounds if we never started stuff like money but only kept like trades for what's needed life would be a lot better just think about it, everyone will have food and a home while also being more connected then today the only thing money did was make people work harder for more money but other then that money is completely useless
reply

i do agree that it's not ok to murder innocent people that world not being save but at the sametime i do wish and want everything to be free because i don't like the system that we have to pay for things i'm against buying things i wish it was free i think thw world will be better place if everything was free in my difference point of view
reply

First issue with this video is that he said -power isn-t free. - In effect he is saying that it is a world WITH money or exchange in the initial examples. I love that he developed the thought in the video, because I was truly concerned it was another dead end theory that refuses to truly remove that construct to explore the possibilities.
reply

What about what if the world was free? Everything is free but by law we have to work to keep up with production but everything is free. Basically you-re working for free but at the same time you don-t have any bills and anything you want you get to do it for free. Because you-re still working, you contribute to production in the world.
reply

That whole video only emphasize what that guy would have wanted to see. Losing money would mean true freedom. Life would be far more simple as long as everybody cooperating. And the current system of currency people tend to be greedy selfish. The only way to ensure freedom is to get rid of money.
reply

This is incredibly dumb. You're basis the argument on our history.
What if you wanted more? Work on an earn based system, do something nice or community work. I'm certain the world would be a better place without money, religion and the media.

reply

The barter economy is a myth. We evolved from a gift economy. When there's enough to go round, there's no reason to restrict produce. If wages weren't a factor, people would work for the joy of it, and jobs would have to be enjoyable rather than a chore.
reply

I wish when the time comes our world will never use money because of money everyone is greedy, selfish and arrogant no one wants to help the poor, disabled and animals in need of our - and help besides money restricts us too much.
reply

You-re thinking of a world without money but using the monetary system mental conditioning to view it, it doesn-t work like that. You should imagine a world with a different frame work of thinking, this video is very deceptive
reply

Due to money some elite people hold 95% of world
Resources in there hand and country like Somalia South africa are struggling billions of people not eating food small small kinds dieing every day due to malnutrition -

reply

This video is an example of the worlds currency dependency the way IF puts it we couldn't survive with out it and we could if the world didn't have money we would be forced to use our brains alot more solve problems better
reply

If the world went broke it would not be what we think or what this video is talking about. Everything would be nature based, the way thing should-ve been. We will get away from the concept of time and live moment to moment
reply

Crime rate would skyrocket is a false idea based on the notion that money keeps away the looters. Exactly the opposite is true. Money attracts looters. Those who steal, do so because it has got a monetary value
reply

literally everything we had today could still exist without money, people would just need to shift their motivation to work solely for the passion of it, not to collect a made up concept of a check
reply

Does the economy have much to do with the bad people in this world, because if we all have a better life does this also mean world peace? Will society really change for the great or good?
reply

Working for free is working happily (that is when your basic needs are fulfilled by government or some central authority. There would be a satisfaction in work, satisfaction of contributing
reply

reply
