From growth to prosperity

in #entertainment7 years ago

In our western vision, time is linear, that's our conditioning. And this conditioning does not only limit our perception of time, but also our concepts of progression, evolution,"meaning", objective... We are at point A and the objective is at point B. This is the direction, this is the line that we draw and that we will do everything we can to follow, in as little time as possible.

So it is necessary to "advance" along this line to reach this objective, as if we were climbing a mountain, which is the closest analogy, this path reminiscent of an economic growth curve...
That is why the only paradigm of Western man to move forward and evolve is growth.

Yet, in other cultures and all times, time is not linear, but circular. It is not even on one plane, but rather as a sphere. According to this conditioning, the growth paradigm makes no sense. Neither is advancing in life, nor are our concepts of goals, of "meaning".
The sense goes in all directions, it is not linear. So "the solution" to blossoming is not growth but prosperity.
Prosperity is about living well.

To live well together, that is to say that we do not seek to "move forward", but rather to balance around us the "live well" of each one with our own.
The meaning is not unique to everyone along a personal progress, but rather it is around us for shared prosperity.

Because what Man is now seeking is this new paradigm. That of being well in the midst of one's peers and the rest of the expressions of life, of nature. What man seeks can no longer be achieved by the paradigm of growth, can no longer be achieved by a solitary career, following a progression of its objectives. There is no more personal development to be sought, no more growth in self-knowledge.

There is listening, meeting, opening your mind and opening your heart. In the paradigm of prosperity, there is nothing to gain, nothing to steal, nothing to lie or deceive. In the paradigm of prosperity, everyone's joy is balanced with the joy of those around them.

I have the heart that accelerates every thought for this still imaginary world, where linear conditioning would have disappeared and prosperity, listening and a real expression of love would be the majority.

So to you, to whom growth no longer says anything, don't be afraid, you are simply changing paradigm and it is by listening to and welcoming this change that we will be able to build together the prosperous world of tomorrow:)
