You are surrounded by manipulators, both inside and outside of you (TV, glossy magazines, churches, disasters movies etc), demanding your attention so you have no chance to be yourself. You brain has been defiled for years by multi-million-dollar ad campaigns and PR managers. Most of them deliberately use images that evoke fear, envy, or pain. Your mind is always chasing false values that have been planted there by advertising professionals, experts, lobbyists, friends, parents, etc. Thus, following a dream is like following the horizon – it is always moving away from you. Occasionally you can reach some of the materialistic targets your mind has set for you – you can buy the car you have been forced to dream of or own some piece of property, but within a month or two you find that even that isn’t enough and then … You’re “on the road again,” swirling in your endless sansara circle. Can money buy happiness? Money gives you satisfaction, maybe accomplishment, but it is possible to have a lot of money without having a decent life. You might have a lot of money and live a meaningless life. Money does not exist in nature, though: can you pay a cow for its milk or its meat? Money has an energy nature, but it flows only in the mind. We can visualize money as a circular piece of metal (coins), ridiculous pieces of printed paper (notes), numbers in a bank account, or numbers of shares in a corporation. Money is a very loaded concept in your subconscious mind. Most people are manipulated by money. For myself, money is energy flowing in a pipeline inside the mind, on the conscious level. We transform the energy we receive from food, the sun, or breathing into this mental energy. We need either to increase the diameter of this pipeline or clean it. Detachment from money matters is the way to increase the volume of flow by the increasing the diameter and/or cleaning of the pipeline.
