Renaissance 2.0: renew spirituality, psychology, and economics (2010)

From http://csper.org/

The truth has never been clearer. We're living in a voracious empire based on people ownership, i.e. subjugating humans to increasing debt servitude to Wall Street and the global banking establishment. This debt system has morphed economics from a study in human progress to an engine of human enslavement. Spirituality "sense of meaning" and psychology have been crushed as a result. Any sense of a meaningful life has almost been vanquished as the corporate system that serves Wall Street has replaced truth with fake media PR and replaced our communities with narcissistic hierarchy.

The good news is that this system is on its last leg. It will end. However, we are not prepared to weather the storm and our communities are not equipped to ensure a better system emerges. Our instincts have been trying to tell us this for a long time, but it has felt safer to go along with the fake PR of the corporate/political system pumped through the TV. It's time to have the courage to face the truth. Then we must rebuild our communities with an economic system informed by healthy spirituality and psychology rather than one specifically designed to crush them.

To help facilitate this type of renewal and avoid chaos or tyranny in the coming decline of the empire, CSPER recognizes the need for a new Enlightenment to recover our humanity and break the monolithic monetary monopoly that controls everything.

Details on this are discussed in the introductory course to CSPER, Renaissance 2.0:

Lesson 1 - Revisiting American History, documents the conversion of the US into a monolithic financial empire as the Federal Reserve Act created a monopolized cartel of private interests, "Wall Street," that controls all money in the system. This killed Jeffersonian ideals and allowed vertical Hamiltonian forces to have free reign to consolidate power and wealth. It explains how this is an empire system where the top Wall Street banks are analogous to feudal lords and multi-national corporations are their feudal knights out conquering territories. It rewrites American History books.

Lesson 2 - Revisiting Economics 101 - Debt, discusses the power of debt-based money, embodied in the bond market, and its ability to exert total top-down power and control over the empire. Our system is not a free market.

Lesson 3 - Revisiting Civics 101 - Ownership,describes how the media projects a false picture in terms of who controls the US. This lesson illustrates the real power structure, which is modeled after the corporate governance system.

Lesson 4 - The Culture of Empire,addresses our wealth illusion, freedom illusion, exponential growth, inflation/deflation, and bankruptcies.

Part 2 - The Culture of Empire, focuses on the issue of scale. As the debt-based empire grows, the scale of our system grows causing all sorts of problems related to the loss of meaning, community, freedom, and agency.

Part 3 - The Culture of Empire. The velocity of money is a standard economic concept, but economists ignore the issue of human velocity caused by the system, which results in the loss of rest, joy, delight, and deeper issues.

Part 4 - The Culture of Empire, focuses on the rise of narcissism, increasing pathology and oppression, and how the financial empire eventually replaces government.

Lesson 5 - The Emerging Global Empire, explains the strategic global transition we're in as the financial institutions take us through a global restructuring, similar to how the individual states were restructured into the financial empire in lesson 1.

Part 2 - The Emerging Global Empire. More on the restructuring process and the single, integrated, corporate government the elite is trying to create.

Lesson 6 - Brightening the Future, discusses the powerful monetary vortex that governs our lives day to day; explains the truth about inflation, leverage, and derivatives; and introduces the solution to the vortex.

Part 2 - Brightening the Future, discusses how the left vs. right political framework is not the place to find solutions to the vortex because it only fuels the vortex further. Explains what fascism really is.

Part 3 - Brightening the Future, discusses how to fix the problem and help launch the next Enlightenment to ensure humanity moves into Renaissance 2.0 vs. the next Dark Ages.
