Is money becoming more important than your own value? ~A discussion on money and consciousness (3)~

This time,

I would like you to
look back objectively at the relationship between you and money.


Is money not becoming superior to you?

Money is in a higher position,
and you are below.

Isn't that the dynamic you have?

Originally, there is no hierarchy,
and it should be neutral.

It is a system that humans created as a convenient tool,
as the 'side that handles it'.

Yet, before we knew it,
we have become controlled by money.


Obsession attached to money

・Destroying human relationships for the sake of money.

・Sacrificing your mind and body for the sake of money.

・Sometimes even taking a life for the sake of money.

The fact that life can be ruined for the sake of money
so easily,
what do you think about that?

For example, lending and borrowing money.

This is also a theme where
excessive emotions are easily attached.

If there is a dispute or trouble occurring,

please set aside general 'common sense'
for a moment and think about it.


The side that is lending

Is that really,

something worth holding anger or hatred over,
or directing destructive energy toward?

Is it something that must be paid back?

The side that pays back

Is it really something

that you must pay back, even at the cost of your physical and mental health,
even at the cost of your precious family, relationships, or your life?

Is it really something that must be paid back?


Questioning "common sense"

Is that "common sense" really correct?

What if these entanglements
disappeared today?

Without being bound by attachments to the "past",
couldn't you live more lightly?

Couldn't you turn your eyes
to the abundance that exists in the "now"?


This is not a story about running away.

This is,

not a story about conveniently shelving things,
nor is it a story about enduring and swallowing your feelings.

Acting while keeping your emotions bottled up,
and acting while being swayed by your emotions,

are ultimately the same thing.

Either way,
your energy will stagnate.

And that distortion
will eventually come back to you.


The importance of remaining still amidst the rough waves

If you are currently

in the midst of suffering,

I want you to stop for a moment
and consider if you should really keep going as you are.

Both parties involved through money

“attachment to money”are simply
trapping themselves in a turbulent vortex of suffering🌊

Things you were blind to
may become clear,
as if the fog has lifted.


What does it mean to be pushed around by money?

In terms of the flow of money coming in and going out,

“I have to earn money”
“chased”by payments

In this state,

if you are carrying impatience or anxiety,
thatcannot be called a healthy energy state.

Money has become superior to you,
and you are being pushed around by it.


Looking back at the cause

Why are you being pushed around by money?

I want you to turn your attention to that.

For example,

・Habit of escapism
・Desire for approval or vanity
・Misalignment in communication
・Bearing things alone without relying on others
・Inability to express your true feelings or opinions
・Blindly depending on others
・Suppressed emotions

Where did the button get misaligned?
You might see
several triggers.

However, this
is not just your problem alone.

Society as a whole
has created a structure of “Money as God.”

It is ironic that even the world's powerful
are pushed around by money...

That is why
it is no wonder that this happens.


What you can do to break free

So, how can you break free from this structure?

First,

Notice the
emotions attached to the inflow and outflow of money.

Anger
Fear
Impatience
Anxiety
Sadness
Desire for approval
Attachment
Arrogance...

Carefully observe whether you have such emotions.

And,
make sure to release them thoroughly through exercises.

Once excessive emotions toward money are gone,

・You can review how you work, where you live, and your income and expenses
・You can have calm discussions
・You can rely on others and experts

New solutions will also
naturally become visible.

I believe that your relationship with money will become neutral,
and its flow will become healthy.


My own transformation

In fact, I also,

let go of the negative flow regarding money,
and since I started facing it with new values,

even when
my account balance approached zero,

I was surprised that
my heart barely wavered.

(*This is not to say you shouldn't save... haha)

If it were the past me,

I think I would have tried to earn money
by working hard at things I didn't want to do
out of anxiety for the future.

But now,

my consciousness naturally turns
to the fact that "I have enough right now."

It's not that I forced myself to be positive,
but I came to think that way on my own.


True abundance
arrives after the stagnation clears

Without stress or holding back,

Living calmly and doing what I love,
while still being able to make a living.

I've come to realize how truly rich that is.
I've come to realize how truly rich that is.

I no longer fall into the trap of suffering
called 'anxiety about the future'.

Reaching this point was possible because of:

✔︎accepting and releasing negative emotions

✔︎reviewing my spending

✔︎letting go of the belief that
'I have to solve everything myself'

These were the biggest factors.


When your relationship with money changes,

as negative emotions and limiting beliefs
gradually fall away
and your consciousness becomes calm,

your heart will no longer be swayed
by the amount of money you have.

Money is something to be grateful for, but
on the other hand,
it is merely paper and numbers.

When you can see it so neutrally,

you naturally start to focus
on the abundance that is already there.

Money worries decrease,

and harmony gradually returns
to your life as a whole.

And before you know it,
money starts to circulate naturally too🪽



May we all let go of excessive emotional bias,

and treat money as
a tool to enrich our lives
as just one 'tool',

and cultivate a healthy relationshipwith it✨

See you in the final part, (4)👋
