Trinity/Wisdom/The Integration of Opposites: The Solution To Humanity’s Obsessive and Destructive History With Duality

Duality is the mental framework and definition of problems. Us versus them in whatever thought, system or area of human endeavor. Its thought counter thought, emotion counter emotion, effort counter effort…that will not seem to resolve. Mankind’s mostly inadequate grappling with/obsessive defense of and allegiance to dualities is riven with frustration, anger, dominance and violence.

Trinity/an integrative/unitary thirdness greater oneness resolution of a duality/problem is the signature and very mental discipline of Wisdom itself.

Grace/graciousness being the active form and expression of love/unity and whose aspects have always been the beneficial effects of every historical paradigm change is indeed the concept behind that second most powerful human phenomenon.

Find the aspect(s) of grace relevant to the problem under analysis and how to most efficaciously apply them and you’ll solve problem after problem in a flow of more rational and ethical progress, enlightenment, evolution and survival.

How To Eliminate Most Tarrifs

First off, forcing punishment when an actual beneficial solution better accomplishes a goal is the definition of stupidity and pig headedness. Are you listening Donald Trump?

Implement the 50% Discount/Rebate policy at the various points of retail sale in the economy thus doubling the purchasing power of every one of your citizens, super charging the entire economy and making investment in actually productive facilities in the country, which we foolishly exported, much more attractive.

The combination of the excellent tool of double entry bookkeeping and a new and innovative applied concept/paradigm has historically resolved previously seemingly unresolvable problems.

Play out the effects of the policy until you see how evolutionary and beneficial it is.

CAPS ARE FOR EMPHASIS NOT NECESSARILY FOR SHOUTING

Money is a good and innovative economic tool I see no reason to not use it. What you want is to make money both more abundant and democratically distributed which is why I keep advocating for a 50% Discount/Rebate policy at both the consumer and the financial points of retail sale. That way the purchasing power of whatever money one is making (or getting for free) gets doubled by the discount and then with the central bank rebating the entirety of the discounts back to the merchant they are made whole on their entire price. Voila! A more abundant, democratic, innovative and graciously GIFTING economy.

As to energy, the 50% discount at retail sale implements beneficial price and asset deflation so you no longer have to resort to the ham handed tool of increasing the FED fund’s interest rate to “control” inflation and neither do you have to tax the shit out of everyone, but if you implemented a sliding scale required percentage “tax” of GIFTED purchasing power be invested in Eco-Energy R & D treasury bonds, that is a GIFT of investment, at an enticing rate of say 5-6% we could actually reduce taxation, and maybe we could discover how to harness zero point energy or at least fund the off planeting of energy production and the dirtiest forms of commodity production.

So you see that the wisdom of applying the relevant aspects of the natural philosophical concept of grace, LIKE STRATEGIC GIFTING, destroys rigid orthodoxies, resolves problems, enables progress toward rational goals and integrates the MENTALLY CONFLICTING seeming opposite concepts of capitalism and socialism into a thirdness greater oneness OF TEMPORAL UNIVERSE REALITIES.

So let us have a Wisdomics-Gracenomics…as soon as possible.

Zietgiestology:

The study of the rational consideration of morals also known as ethics, and of the discovery that ethics are an essential aspect of the cosmos.

Cosmology:

The study of the essential aliveness, livingness and awareness…of everything.

Paradigmology:

Entirely the study and application of the aspects of the natural philosophical concept of grace.

The Whole of Human History and Endeavor…

…is shaped by the interaction between our various historical paradigm changes, and being stuck in the ongoing struggle between the only human historical phenomenon higher and more consequencial, namely a/the present human zietgiest, that is the human ethic of the age.

Our progress has been, and will continue to be grudging and minimal until we recognize that the beneficial effects of every historical paradigm change have always been an APPLIED aspect or aspects of the natural philosophical concept of grace…and that the universally recognized superlative human ethic is also grace as in love/loving action.

Now, what is the present human zeitgiest/ethic of the age you may ask? Well, its Power, Profit and Control, and because the vast majority of individuals do not recognize this fact it is approaching Power, Profit and Control ONLY.

So what is the solution to this problematic and dangerous situation? Well, if you follow the facts and logic above, its acting toward and applying both personally and even more importantly systemically, the new zeitgiest of Grace As In Redeemed/Redemptive Power, Profit and Control.

Finally, where do we BEST start and supercharge this process? We find the relevant aspect(s) of grace and implement SYSTEMIC policies that CONTINUALLY evoke, ellicit and enable those aspects/experiences in our interactions with/participation in those systems, especially in systems that everyone must and does participate in, like for instance in the economy with a 50% Discount/Rebate policy at retail sale with the tool of money and the relevant aspect of grace, namely a 50% GIFT OF PRICE to the consumer and reciprocally the equivalent amount of GIFTED MONEY back to the merchant granting it to the consumer thus making the merchant whole on their entire price.

 @profstevekeen  Give every commercial agent (and every individual one as well) an account at the central bank and then have the central bank implement the rebate aspect of a 50% Discount/Rebate policy at regular consumer retail sale AND at the retail point of Finance which is everyone’s monthly mortgage, automobile, insurance or other big ticket item payment. That way $100 worth of groceries only costs $50, and a $500k house costs only $250k and yet the central bank also pays for half of your mortgage payment every month so you get that $500k house for the equivalent of a $125k loan payment. Voila! Beneficial price and asset deflation, everyone’s purchasing power is doubled or quadrupled, The Quantity Theory of Money is invalidated and everyone can (if they’re smart enough) consciously self actualize gratitude for a gift by buying something instead of feeling frustration and anger because since the beginning of economics the monopoly paradigm of money creation has always been Debt ONLY. Strategic Monetary Gifting…the new monetary and economic paradigm.

And by the way that policy is pure double entry bookkeeping…except the central bank doesn’t have to be in positive financial equity. And its also not only “a modern debt jubilee” its not just a one-off debt jubilee, but a continuous one.

Why Trinity Ellicits Movement/Change

Because its signatures include: transition (mental and temporal movement), resolution (of duality/problems), integration (of opposed self interests), unitary thirdness greater oneness of a problematic duality/problem (which is the very mindset and intellectual discipline of Wisdom) and gracefullness as in dynamic, integrative flow.

The Next Step In Human Evolution

Find a way to increase the experience of grace as in gratitude, like Gifting for instance, by making the experience of gratitude for a gift a daily experience…that everyone must and does participate in, in order to even survive.

Like a policy of a 50% Discount/Gift at retail sale, all of which gift of price is monetarily Rebated/Gifted back to the merchant granting it to the individual consumer. Its a continuing temporal universe application and opportunity to self actualize what meditation and prayer are designed to do, i.e. create the experience of thankfullness, gratitude, positivity and joy…not to mention increased awareness.
