Occupy All

Good evening!

 

Today is black Friday. Were you occupied by the shopping spree? The Canadian magazine Adbusters, which advocated a Buy Nothing Day twenty years ago, launched OccupyXmas today, stopping shopping sprees. Xmas is now occupied by supply-side management. It is for the holy wholesome whole, not occupied by toys and tools.

 

I propose OccupyAll movement that is concerned with all, taking care of all, and cooperating with all always, like trees settling in truth and peace, working with all. If we are possessed by limited things or, much more, occupied by shopping sprees and shooting sprees, we become separated and torn asunder.

 

So, we need to become wholly wholesome, and truly enjoy amrita, ambrosia of immortality, like trees settling in truth, peace, harmony, and holiness. We can thus live and give the true gift of limitless life, light, liberation, love, and learning. This will be the demand-side management, demanding and possessing nothing, living unpossessed.
