No human battle or historical revolution would have been necessary without any danger to free will. All clashes are for security of free will or against the danger to free will. Life ensures free will. Even good and evil can be defined on this parameter, Good is what is in favour of free-will and evil stands against free will. Wealth and free-will are interdependent.
Owning free-will does not lead to slavery, encroachment does which is the extreme inhumane ownership. Rather, free-will is the only asset in the economy which is inexhaustible, renewable and almost infinite, it can’t be ever scarce. It still remains desirable because of its apparent scarcity on the face of our imaginative faculty. Only because of this fact we have entered an age of entrepreneurship, when every day someone plans a start-up. Some succeed, some fail. Yet each feeds on the energy of free-will.
We seek spiritual dimensions to realise the infinitude of free-will. We can also do the same in the empirical domain, with no loss of spirituality. The more we seek it here and now, the more we shall be free and liberated. Lifeconomics suggests that - judicious and harmonious usage of our free-will determines the affluence of our existence, at both individual and social level.
Thus, there are two ways to accumulate riches - either by dominance using brute-force and deception or by earning respect. Dictators, like Hitler choose the first path, unfortunately even politicians in democracy use the same force with elements of deception to uphold their power. Cunning businesses also leverage the power of deception to earn profits. Without a capable leader, society falls prey to anarchy. But, without an aware society, leaders tend to become dictators even in a democratic setup.
Wise men, men who love life, like Jesus, Mohhamad, Buddha or Gandhi earned respect and accumulated ever-lasting riches not only for themselves and for the entire populace. Even they are the masters of our free-will as they govern that part of our conscience that seeks peace and solace.
Therefore, exercising one's free will without encroaching upon that of others is the true moral conduct. Constructive imagination and action brings us immortal riches and conversely deception can bring us momentary riches but will lead to misery and poverty.
Remember, Life is a barter with free-will. Even time is a product of our free-will. Under Lifeconomics, we shall try the same in a more practical and economical manner. Here as well as in future, with Learnamics and Expressophy. So, even when you don’t get all the answers here, you can command your reason to fetch it for you.
