Why do we crave for money?!

Question from the Internet:

“The world has gone money-mad. What is your solution?”

The solution is first of all finding the root cause of the problem.

And the problem is not money, or wanting money. The fact that a simple trading tool had become the object of desire is just a symptom, like all other problems we observe in the world.

The root cause is our inherently self-serving, self-justifying, individualistic and exploitative nature, the problem is our incessantly growing, insatiable desire for selfish pleasures through the instinctive and social desires of food, sex, family, wealth, power, honor and knowledge.

We can’t remedy our problems unless we recognize the destructive “cancer" — this selfish, egoistic desires — inside is.

Only after the honest, humble self-recognition can we start using the right “medicine", a special, purposeful and practical educational method designed to correct, upgrade our inherent nature based on Nature’s integration and its laws that sustain the homeostasis life depends on.

Then we will become truly Human, a being that can act, exist independently, above and against its inherent instincts in similarity with Nature’s balanced, life-giving system.
