Is it by fate, that you find yourself here?
Are you troubled by the state of world affairs? Do you feel powerless, yet know deep down, that a better world is possible? Would you do something to change it if you could? As Gandhi once said, "One must become the change they would like to see."
1way2b represents the human ideal. Not to be construed as utopian, but more a striving toward the full human potential, which rests in all of us, at varying degrees. It is an aspect of our being found in stillness of mind or focused attention, where truth reveals itself, through a knowing of what is not true. A place where the false is peeled away, allowing for objective discernment.
Meditation is the primary means of access, but some may unknowingly find it, in activities like fishing, needlework, painting; or other hobbies, and interests where deliberative thinking is rested. It is the fountainhead of creative thought, Inspiring action, and through It, springs forth mans greatest achievements.
Everyone may access these deeper reaches, and when practiced, thoughts may come that call us to the challenge, of difficult, but not impossible action. The choice is ours.
Here, we examine the bigger picture, through the lens of this ideal, and consider the idea of a Resource Based Economy. All are invited, to stand for something which holds the potential, to move humanity beyond the current world order, into an achievable paradigm of competent sustainability, mutual cooperation, and lasting peace.
We trust this ideal to awaken. We lean to the days, where the gifts, of Intellect, and Creativity, neither of which, have biological origin, are yoked to their Source; and used to transform our world, through gratitude, and not through greed.
Who could resist moving in this direction? What part of the reasoning, can be attributed to conditioning and learned behavior, or fear, worse yet, dismissive arrogance?
Bravery, is what drives those to pursue outcomes of the highest ideals, for the greater good, which they themselves, will not live to see or enjoy. Ignoring the call to do so, is fear, and it is disguised in many robes.

Whether it be through prisms of elite class-consciousness, or religious-dogma, both are distortions of the highest truths. Both, have more to do with control, than enlightenment. Both, serve a narrow interest, and not the broader. Both must be transcended, and can be, through discernment, commitment, and perseverance.
Until we balance our intellect, with our 1way2b-ness and teach, that humanity, is a reflection of a single human body, little will change. Every cell (or person) is important. Few would say, I do not need this group, or that group, of cells in their own body, except through donation, or illness.
There are too many people, to be sustained, under a resource depleting system, where pollution, and war are both profitable. How can a system of such waste, and destruction, be superior?
Why do the worlds brightest minds, who serve it, seemingly accept it, and its impact on the innocent, instead of using their gift of reason, to modify the system? Do they not see it their duty? Is that learned behavior? In contrast with Sitting Bull's quote, are we truly evolving?
There can be no higher ideal, than to stand bravely, and align with those, who aspire, to begin a process, which would, by its nature, in full bloom, rid the world of greed, war, pollution, scarcity, and tension.
This only begins to describe humanity's benefit, for many repugnant behaviors, we see today, would evaporate, for lack of a reason to exist.
To (r)Be, or not to (r)Be?, This is the question.
"Not To RBE", is to stand openly, or timidly silent, (with an intellect capable of knowing better), for a facade of freedom. To condone, a system of limits, propagated and imposed, by a pathological insincerity, served through a veil of honorableness, seeking only, to maintain dominance, through its devices.
Hence, human achievement serves a lower order, and as a result, science now confirms, on multiple levels, we threaten our own existence.
To those who understand, and whose daily activities drive the current system: Our hope, is that many will be called, and with truthful tenacity, bring challenge to the present system, making viral, a message of hope for all the world.
May these actions, bring meaningful purpose, to the lives of those who choose to resonate, and give impetus, to the RBE.
May it especially find its way, to those, who would live just as comfortably in a RBE, but would attempt to undermine it, for loss of control.
All efforts, to bring the Resource Based Economy into being, shall be through a synthesis of elevated thought, over a broad, voluntary base. People join, because it comfortably resonates of sound reasoning, not through a lure, a sales pitch, coercion, intimidation, or force. Actions regarding RBE, are done in the light of love, and truth, which stand comfortably, on their own merit.
Become familiar with, and able to discuss, the Resource Based Economy. Watch the videos. research, pass out DVDs, and send links.
Most importantly of all, think about a Resource Based Economy often. Discuss it, approach it from all angles, and envision its process.
