Curse of the rich

In our journey to understand love and how we are all connected to one, Giving is only half of the equation.

Receiving is the part that is much less talked about. receiving from love and compassion is required to understand the full picture.

In the structure of capitalist society today, excess money is obtained through “process” at best, and greed, deceit and coercion at worst. The rich do not understand how deeply interdependent we are on each other through the interface of not money but compassion.

Of course , the access to money guarantees a minimum level of treatment, but money itself has a coercive vibe to it, one can never be sure whether the niceties they received are purely due to others “needing” their money or not.

It is therefore said that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.
