Sacred Cow Tipping - Release from Prison
Countdown: 9 Days remaining of 30 Days to Creating a Change in Direction
In order to firmly establish ourselves in the direction of peace and prosperity, our job will be much easier if we are unfettered by obligations that chain us to the past. One of the most effective ways that the Status Quo keeps from moving forward is through the negative use of debt. If we still owe our allegiance to outmoded and detrimental processes, it will be much more difficult to initiate and fully develop progressive models of society that include diversity, personal sovereignty and equal opportunity.
It’s easy to understand how financial debt can limit our potential and luckily, people don’t get thrown in debtor’s prison anymore; however, there are other kinds of prisons. Indebtedness to old ways of being and doing affects us on a spiritual, mental, emotional and collective level as well.
Some examples of how we might still be chained to debts from the past:
- Feeling guilt or shame because of the actions of our ancestors (slavery, genocide, and criminal activity).
- Carrying the burden of responsibility for what others do or have done.
- Limiting one’s ability to prosper because others are poor.
- Subordinating the ability to create to those in charge.
- Waiting for permission to be granted from the Status Quo before doing what is in our best interests.
- Going to war because of our obligation to our country.
- Suffering under the stigma of caste or class.
- Feeling obligated to continue certain beliefs, attitudes or professions.
- Being suicidal over money.
For all the reasons above and many others, let’s tip this Sacred Cow:
“Use debt to imprison the people.”
