Two addictions have yet to be tried: Prem (Love) and Seva (Service). These are more potent than money and work. Largely, because unlike believing in an employer/owner, Prem and Seva makes us our own employer/owner. In India, there are ashrams every few kilometres and ashrams practice the Prem & Seva way of living instead of the 'money and work' way of living. The logic is a perfect blend of secularism, equality, and capitalism. All work that is important is equal, all people are equal and do all work in rotation. The central line of reasoning of the cooperation way of living is "why do we serve? Because there's love in us. Why is there love in us? Because we serve." Unlike the competition/money way of living, where the central line of reasoning is "why do we work? Because we need money to survive. Why can't we survive without money? Because we only own our energy, we don't own what our energy needs to work on - land/factory etc. Who owns it? The guy who has the money to pay us so we can live." In an indirect way of life, can money ever become love? Clearly not. Can work become service? Nope. So the question to ask is, should love be lost for money? Or should money become love? What does money need to do to become love?
