"If we have any chance at all, then this is our chance: That we become calm. That our loud, busy, noisy, consuming and aggressive behavior towards each other slows down, or even stops. That we become aware of what we are and what we are doing. If we don't learn to be more compassionate and wiser beings, then it's good that we disappear. The sooner the better. The rest of creation will breathe a sigh of relief when we are gone." — Vajna Palmer https://aeon.co/videos/a-zen-buddhist-priest-voices-the-deep-matters-he-usually-ponders-in-silence #FoodForThought #Humanity #Aeon #Stille #Zen #Buddhism #SilentSunday

If there exists #corporations in our modern world, with net value/revenue equal to, or higher than some #countries and #governments, what makes You #think that those corporations are not part of, and do not have #influence over governments, or don't cooperate with them ? We need to wake up and see, that consumerism and corporations go far above selling and buying, and that they are equally a part of how our countries function, and how we are being influenced in variety of ways. #foodforthought #bigcorp #countries #socialsciences #humansciences #anthropology #consumerism #modernworld #freedom #money #economy
