Day 264: Chanel No. 5 - Cheaper than Printers Ink

A 3.5ml cartridge of yellow HP ink costs $10.50 through the Good Guys, meaning consumers will pay $3/ml - or $3000 per litre.
That's one-third more than Chanel No.5 perfume. A 100ml bottle of Chanel No.5 costs $224.77 from online retailer The Iconic. That's $2.25/ml or $2250 per litre. (price in AU$)

Today I bought my 7th ink cartridge since I bought my printer 1 years ago, I bought 4 original cartridges  from HP, and paid for the 4 almost 80 euro, adding now the 3 I have bought non original, I have reached the price of the printer.

From now on, the ink cartridges costs will be surpass the cost of my printer and turn into mostly all profit for the printer manufacturers.

A few years ago my ex husband who was a computer expert, used to rant about this cartridge problem, at the time I was lost on love and light and good feeling thoughts, which did not include reality or the cost of cartridges, hence I always looked at him with contempt, seeing that he was always trying to spoil a good moment, bringing up imaginary problems like 'cartridges' whenever we went to buy a printer, insisting that it was important to check how much they cost and how much they would last because companies had shifted their product costs onto cartridges.

Finally that 'cartridge penny' dropped.

My printer is quite sophisticated, it has a scanner included, can make copies and can handle many different functions through the computer, can print photos too.

Paying 100 euro for such a printer seemed like a good bargain and this is how we are kept enslaved into this system, we allow ourselves to be fooled into price 'savings' and 'bargains, into the 'value for money' offers, and we keep missing the small print that says we'll be hooked for life and will end up paying something worth maybe 200 euro, 500 to 600 euro during its lifetime.

As we enslaved each other through an imaginary monetary system,  we show to each other enslavement in every possible form, now is Corporation enslavement, but this was never the beginning point, we began this world and this creation on a faulty starting point and everything manifested as a consequential outflow of who we were, enslaved to seeking more, more , more, until we created a monster enslaving machine, to reflect back to us that as we seek more, we are in fact Not Enough, as we enslave others we are caught in the enslavement web, until we'll wake up and see that we have a faulty world as a result of our faulty assumption of how it could all work best 'for me' and not best for All and we need to set on a correction course.

Why can't we have an honest relationship  with corporations, why is it that we have to be fooled, tricked, hooked, why is it not possible to in fact sit down and show openly where all  the costs are, how is profit planned to be distributed, how do we come to a specific cost for something, seeing all points, being able to check that everyone along the production line is properly rewarded, that the cost for properly dismantling the units once we no longer need them is accounted in, when nothing is transparent anymore?

How did we come to be the goose that lays the golden eggs for the corporate world without us being active participants in the whole process?

It happened because we didn't care, I know because I didn't care, I never wanted to know the cost involved in anything but just get my hands on whatever it is I needed or wanted, we have grown up into imbeciles consumers and we are treated as such.

Problem

Corporations that manufacture consumer goods strive for a slice of the market. Customers demand the cheapest products possible with the highest value, and so, for the manufacturers to make 'our dreams come true' there is only the path of deception, we have to be deceived into believing that we have access to such good bargains that we can't let them pass. We have to buy, consume, to keep this abusive machinery going.

At the same time the corporations have to come up with new ideas, this is because they employ full time engineers to do just that, hence they have to plan the product shelf life into a cycle we called planned obsolescence, nothing can last longer that an 'x' amount of time, 'x' being the value given to the product for the income it will bring in an 'y' amount of time.

This results in 'apparently 'cheap ' products with ridiculously expensive accessories and paraphernalia. 

For example, I got my phone free from my service provider for signing up for 2 years and it came with a free wireless charge cover from Nokia BUT I will have to buy the wireless charger, I need the protection cover for the screen or it will get scratched, so our system at the moment is a hook, after a hook followed by a hook. Or a screw, after a screw, followed by a screw and we are not the ones holding the screwdriver.

Solution

The point of creating such a system is to guarantee the survival of the Manufacturing companies in time. Within an Equal Money Capitalism this will never be a problem. Only the best products will be manufactured at their highest 'shelf life' potential, the 'price' of the products will allocate all the costs of the production line to their cost centres which will be visible to all, the system will be transparent and everyone at anytime will be able to see if all the standard we have set, for the ethical running of a corporation, will be in place, this will include profit -which will be equally shared by all company employees-, used resources, waste disposal and the cost to top up the used resources, anything that has contributed to the creation of an object will be transparently accounted for.

Hence the equitable price charged will be able to be worked out by anybody and there won't need to be any props to push sales because there will be no competition to beat as ONLY the best will be manufactured with the highest consideration for the environment and all the points involved.

And everyone will be provided with enough income to face the costs of everything we need, so to no longer be the ones that in fact drive the market into the manufacturing of 'cheap' goods, we will move beyond cheap into sustainable well built goods to last, tricks like ink cartridge more expensive than any other existing liquid, will no longer exist and we'll slowly but surely build a world that will be as trustworthy as we will work to redesign ourselves into.

Reward

We will be sure at any moment that everything that is on the market is not the product of slave labour in any way shape or form, that everyone has been honoured for manufacturing something that has been designed and conceived as support for Life by Life.

We will no longer fool each other into 'cheap ' purchases that drag hidden perennial costs that we believe we can't justify to the imbecile audience we have turned buyers into, instead we will create a cooperative environment, where manufacturers will be the molding hands of the supporting tools to make life easier and most effective for all and where the contribution can flow in a circle of life, from suggestions, to designing, to feedback, to, implementation, in a circle that becomes a circle of living being vs the actual circle of abuser and abused of which we have nothing to be proud of.

Educate yourself on an omni-comprehensive solution for our problems, you'll be amazed at the possible World that will unfold in front of your eyes for yourself and every other living being, Equal and One.

Equal Money - for the Outer Change

Desteni - for the Inner Change of each of us to create ourselves into solid bricks that will support the manifestation of Life in the Physical and Heaven on Earth for All.

Day 63: Where is the Justice of This World ?

Those Who Fear, Die Every Day, Those Who don't Fear, Die Only Once

Today I saw this picture on TV, and I had a reaction, I could not say what was the reaction precisely, I just felt a movement inside me, like an electric shock.

This is the picture of two famous anti Mafia Sicilian judges, because every cause has its polarities, the Evil Ones and the Heroes.

This is a story of 2 Heroes, they died for a cause, they died for Justice.

Yet in a country as full of contradictions as Italy, even the ones that seem obvious Heroes are still part of the polarity Game of Right and Wrongs, within a system that is just plain Wrong, that is built on Abuse for  Survival.

When They interrupted the news for the first of the 2 that they blew up on the Sicilian highway, I cried, it was like if the embodiment of Good had been deleted, we would have to stop Hoping that the system would Change just because 2 men stood up to it.

Mafia is a social phenomenon, many don't know that it was born out of the need for Protection, like the Church but much more effective, because bullets have proved to save lives, while prayers don't.

Sicily was an isolated island forgotten by the Italian Government, the abuses from land owners and authority figures were the order of the day, slaves used to work in the caves and they would have blisters on their shoulders, blisters meant they had a job or recently had one, so it meant they were eating, while they healed between jobs they prayed for the blisters on their shoulder to be back soon, to give them dignity and some Money to feed themselves, to show that they were worthy citizens of a Land forgotten by Men and God.

More or less a month after they killed Falcone, the one on the left who had started the Anti Mafia Judge Pool, they killed his friend, they blew up half of his mother's building while he went to visit her on a lunch break, the street where the building stood looked like a war zone.

For the second one I cried less, we get used to the system being something we can never take on, they keep Jesus on a cross as a reminder and they take down anyone who opposes it directly, Falcone and Borsellino were not killed by the Mafia, they were killed by the State because they were about to prove what everybody knew for a long time, that the Mafia was just the armed branch of the State, the ones who would take on the dirty jobs to allow the State to come out clean.

But who is the State ?

The State is All of Us, together, it is our missing in action Beingness that has been replaced by a State of Fact, where the Facts that rule are Money and Fear, everyone fears something, fear of being exposed, fear of being abused, killed, marginalized, left to die.

Because we have been grown on fear, fed fear so everyone will keep their assigned seats at this Banquet in which we have all, at one point in time, decided to come and sit, hoping to make it through, hoping in the AfterLife reward, while Fear rules our Lives and we end up not dying just once, but with every single Breath we fail to Take.

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to react to the picture of Falcone and Borsellino because when they died I believed something about Justice died with them, without seeing that there can be no Justice where there is no Equality

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to imprint myself with the picture of F and B, as a reminder that we better never stand up even when we see the obvious flaws of a system of injustice because we have to be afraid for our lives

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to Fear dying shot by the Mafia

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to judge the Mafia as Bad and the Judges and the Judiciary System as Good, when it is obvious that the system of Abuse is all encompassing and people are forced to do what they need to do to survive

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to believe that the Mafia are the Evil Ones and We are the Good Ones because We Are Not The Mafia, when in fact Mafia is just a system of favours born out of fear of survival  to which all of us have subscribed according to our placement in the world

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to Hope that One Day someone would come and set this world Right, instead of seeing it is up to us to set ourselves right so that the World as our Mirror can realign with us to Oneness and Equality and What is Best for All

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to pretend I was fearless because I was too afraid to show my fear and deal with it so that I would not be run by it and would have to die every single day, with every breath I failed to take

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to believe that fearing the system is normal, because everyone does, instead of seeing I was just fearing myself and projected this inward fear outward

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to believe that fear is real

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to believe in a 'Justice System' when it is obvious that in a World where Inequality is rampant and not all lives have the same value, Justice doesn't exist and has never existed

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to count on an external Justice System to regulate us as Humanity because I believed that we were not able to become our own Authority and walk what is Best for All in Oneness and Equality

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to feel saddened by this world of inJustice and for believing that I better take care of myself because I cannot be responsible for the world and everyone is just out for themselves anyway

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to not see that I existed as a system of Injustice and that I cannot have what I am not willing to give to everyone Equally, which is their Just Place in the World as Life One and Equal

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to fail to see that there cannot be Justice where Life is not valued and Money and Profit have taken over through our acceptances and allowances an that now Justice=Money, because those who have more can buy themselves the Justice they wish for and so Justice will have to mean Equal Money for All to translate into Equal Justice

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to believe that the Justice System was set up to have the Law respected, failing to see that the Law was written by Money and that Money has made sure that those with Money will benefit from the Law and the Justice System and the Poor won't have ever any access to the Law and the Justice they have not written and cannot buy

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to judge the people in jail as criminals because they broke the Law, failing to see that this Judiciary System is not What is Best for All, but what is Best for the few that wrote the Laws and that we were indoctrinated to the respect of the Law=Money as Slaves by accepting and allowing ourselves to judge each other and become the effective Wardens of each other into the slavery we were born into and failed to see

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to support a world in which Life has gone on sale and profit is sitting at the helm, steering the World to utter destruction, while we fought against each other in stupid senseless wars that were system designed to Divide and Conquer

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to not want to face the reality of this Evil world, because I would then have to give up any remnant of Hope that we may become self responsible and take back the wheel to drastically change direction to What is best for All as Equality and Oneness

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to lure myself with Hope, as a way to not have to take self responsibility for the world, because I cannot yet see how my participation resulted and or contributed to the state of the world as it is, but within this I take responsibility for the world as it is now, because I am Here and so is The World and only self responsibility can rid us of the Hope that kept us waiting for a saviour or a Lucky Change of Events

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to fear Authority because I equated Authority with Money and their power over me as Money, fearing for myself and my ability to survive

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to fear Lack of Money as the point that decided if I live or die and for accepting and allowing myself to hide my fears so I wouldn't have to face the world as me and what I as the World have accepted and allowed myself to become

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to not realize that if Money has become everyone's Access to Life and what defines our Ability to Survive, we must give to each other Equal Access to Money as a Life resource until we Change ourselves and the System into a Life System and can leave Money and what it represented as Money Above Life, behind us forever

I commit myself to stand for and as Justice and A World of Equals, because justice will only be possible within Equality and Equal Access to Life for all Life expression of the Planet

I commit myself to expose that, what we believe is Justice is a mockery to Life and that when we do not give to everyone the Right to Life, we are deluding ourselves about Justice and the Justice System, while we use the Law to protect our Self Interest and Hide our Fear of Survival

I commit myself to uproot my fear of Survival to stand for What is best for All and for Equality and Oneness for myself and All existence Equal and One, Here, in Every Moment of Breath

Day 62: Reacting to the System in Separation from Self

My computer crashed, it has been painful to face having to reconnect to everything because I had to reinstall the operating system, so had to crawl up from the point of I can't face starting from scratch, because in fact I can, that was just another idea/opinion and the fear of myself projected into everything that I have to do to become as efficient as I was.

Last week I had lunch with a girlfriend and the point of me finding difficulty in finding a job came up, she is retired, during our walk she stated all the reasons why finding a job is just impossible at the moment, which clashed with my desire to 'keep a positive outlook on the situation', plus the point that I started to feel angry, because if this is the world you SEE, why aren't YOU standing up for a system change ?

Is it just because you are retired and so have nothing to worry about, until the pension money will be there, or because you think you have earned your right to be supported because you did enslave yourself to the system and so you deserve having 'peace of mind' now ?

And then the obvious Desteni question came up, which can be reduced to ' WHAT ARE YOU DOING' for a system change ?

Yes, good point, what am I doing ?

And so I felt the need to justify what I am doing with what I am doing practically, meaning I am involved on social networks and exposing reality and connecting to like willed people for a system change. To which she replied so what are We supposed to do, take to the streets, start a revolution, set the Parliament on Fire? Which are all system questions, as in our separation from We The System and We The People we see everything as something that is happening outward and not an inward change that is required and that will ultimately manifest outward.

I could not bring myself to explain that I am changing myself from a system of abuse to a system that is Best for All as simply I just lack the vocabulary to deliver process in Italian to someone else, especially someone that I have already defined within my mind as a socialist that has always been busy with social causes, so I see her as someone who in fact has done way more than me in practical application, yet the point is that she did everything she did in support of this system believing that the system cannot change, just like me, while in my belief that the system cannot change I embraced Law of Attraction and Positive Thinking and basically said to the world "Fuck You", as long as I am Fine.

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to react when I perceived my friend just accepting the system as it is, because now that I woke up I assume everyone should and if they don't, I have a right to blame them

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to feel defeated by this system because I cannot yet see how change will come in a country that is going more and more down the drain while people don't care

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to be angry at myself for not having cared before about the World as Me, and for not having cared about myself as The World

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to feel embarrassed when someone asks me 'and WHAT ARE YOU DOING?' because I feel I have nothing to show in the physical, like having an Army or  planning a revolution, all things I have accepted and allowed myself to associate with 'system change' while I projected the system needing to change outward and failed to see the system is inward as me as existence, One and Equal and that is the one required to be changed by each one of us individually

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to get lost in my backchat while my friend was still talking trying to assess if I was the most angry and suppressed or if she was, distracting myself with the point that I no longer get angry as I used to and wondered where did all that energy go that I could not summon up

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to look for a point within my friend in which I could belittle her, as in "she is angrier than me", so I could see myself as being more than her and get out of the feeling of being less due to my own self judgement of me as having done fuck all for the world in the past, like social causes and standing up for the needy ones

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to judge myself  for not having participated actively in social endeavours like setting up shelters for battered women, or working for the Foreign Missionaries like my friend did, instead of seeing that it's just another point of acceptance of the system as it is and that such endeavours were always meant to make US feel better about ourselves in a world of atrocities and inequality and not tackling The Root Problem which is the system and myself as the system

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to believe that 'the Poor have always existed and they will exist even after I die' and within this belief accepting that there is nothing I can do about it but accept that the system is too big to be taken on

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to believe that Life is about Joy when it was clear that some people who were born in extreme conditions would never have access to the joy the LOA talked about because they were striving to survive another day

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to be ashamed of myself for not paying attention to the world because when I did I felt bad and I wanted to feel good and have a good life experience for myself

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to react to my friend, projecting on her the blame that I feel for myself for not having stood up before for a system change inward and outward

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to judge my friend because 'she does that because she has no money problem', because I have not yet forgiven myself for having done that when I did not have money problems and within this I forgive myself for not standing up anyway when my life was 'working' and for believing that 'I am just doing this because my life is NOT working' or I would not care at all, just like before

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to judge myself for something that I don't know, as in who I would have been if my life did work out and I had not met Desteni as I hold myself accountable for something that did not happen as my life did not work out and I met Desteni and saw the common sense of the message of Oneness and Equality, which was way easier to see from bottom up than top down.

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to fear this system and what it is willing to do in the search for the ultimate gain and profit, instead of seeing I fear myself and what I am willing to do in search for my own energy and profit gains

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to fear myself

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to be angry at myself as the system and for using this anger to not focus on what I need to do which is to get a job so I can re enter the system as an Equal, stopping all judgements about it and how far we took it and be the process of change within the system as the system

I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to fear the re entering the system will compromise me and my stance for Life, instead of seeing I can only be compromised when I exist in and as the Mind, where everything I do is just for myself and not considering What is Best for All

I commit myself to stop all judgements about this system and what has now manifested as the outflow of our participation in an existence of competition, in which only the most clever and strongest survive, instead of creating a system that supports What is Best for All as Life One and Equal

I commit myself to see where I exist in separation with the system through judgements and opinions of blame that I project outside to correct myself as the system into What is best for All as Life One and Equal
