Chasing Our Tail (yourspiritualrevolution.org)
Before it became as apparent as it is today that we, as a society, are caught in a system that pretends to be necessary, beneficial, and meaningful, it was already quite obvious that certain things simply don’t make any sense.

For example, what would happen if we, as a civilization, produced everything with the highest quality and longest durability possible? And I mean everything: clothing, technical devices, vehicles, buildings, furniture, cutlery, toys, appliances, and more.

What If Everything We Produce Lasted Forever?

First, the need for raw materials would plummet—probably to a tiny fraction of what we use today. Workforce, technology, and energy used to gather these materials would also shrink. Manufacturing would be reduced to a small fraction of today’s levels, drastically cutting down transportation and logistics. Waste would be minimized, and fewer people would be required to handle it. Additionally, we would no longer be bombarded with commercials urging us to replace items that break too quickly.

Wouldn’t you consider a civilization primitive if it deliberately incorporated weak spots in products so they would break and require replacement, wasting resources in the process? Why do we live in a society that does this, despite its supposedly advanced educational and governmental systems?

Why does governance allow the production of food and medicines that are obviously detrimental to our health?

Imagine the workforce reduction we could achieve by eliminating redundant public servants duplicating work in every city, state, country, and NGO worldwide. Wouldn’t we be better off needing only a fraction of the current workforce in these areas?

Meaningless Work

So, the question arises: Has this system been designed to ensure that everyone must work their entire life in jobs that supposedly express creative freedom and personal choice? I would love to find a sponsor willing to approach 500 people from all walks of life with an offer: a lifetime income of $3,000 monthly with absolutely no strings attached. Then, I would find out who among them would continue working their current jobs and who would still claim to love what they do. My guess? At least 85% would quit as soon as possible.

What, then, is the point of living life as we do?

My conclusion is that the society we live in has been built for reasons we are not being told. It is a disguise meant to keep people in bondage until they are worn out and too old to cause trouble. By then, they must use their remaining pension or funds to deal with deteriorating health, often ending up in retirement homes or care facilities. The movie *Moon* (2009, starring Sam Rockwell and directed by Duncan Jones) provides a good mirror for this reality. I won’t spoil its twists, but if you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend it.

Is There Another Way?

This is not a pleasant way to look at life, but I believe we must face reality as it is. We need a clear picture of who and where we are before we can move forward. That next step—moving forward—is what I dedicate my work and writing to. My goal is to bring together people courageous enough to embark on a path toward awakening and liberation.
