About gold

Topic starts here

The value of gold lies on a different plane. Paracelsus: “As thoughts of God are superior to any other thoughts, so gold is superior to other metals.” Such a person perceives the essence of gold without the need for reasoning. Paracelsus, in particular, made amalgams and preparations from gold and treated patients with them. From the point of view of modern medicine, this is impossible.

A person who perceives the essence of gold, even if this happened once in his life, will not wonder whether “gold” is “the right money.” Because it is based on an illusory perception of reality. At the same time, he will not assume that people on the street will understand his ideas. Such an attempt will lead to distortion of ideas in the minds of listeners/readers, but, unfortunately, it will be partially implemented and will lead to the destruction or weakening of one of the illusions that holds society together and the mutual understanding of people in culture. The consequences can be realized as heresy, a social disease or a cultural disease.

One of the myths of the outgoing culture was based on a false idea of ​​​​the value of gold. But people of that era could not even ask themselves what it was, and it turned out that it was unconsciously related to money. This was the choice of forces that shape the picture of the world, and, consequently, society.

Now is the time when one culture is dying, and its stereotypes and illusions are becoming less and less useful, and another must arise, with other stereotypes and myths. And the fact that gold is not money should be clear at the level of mass culture. A limited circle of people may be interested in the true meaning of gold.

The Ghazali ladder is the essence (okay, object) – thought – sound – sign formed in the 11th century. Leaving aside substantive issues, it should be said that powerful unconscious forces were at work in society and culture then, which are not at work now. For example, in the medieval West. In Europe, forces were at work that manifested themselves as the ability of people to self-organize. Then communities, cities, guilds and orders were easily and simply organized without the participation of authorities, outside funding, etc. Now the task is to form ideas that would not only overcome the stereotypes of the previous culture, but would form among fairly ordinary people such a picture of the description of the world that would stimulate humanity in a non-destructive and non-destructive way. the right direction. From this point of view, with the ladder the essence - thought - sound - sign is not all simple.

But the topic cannot be covered in a short letter and we can end here. If you have any questions, I can try to continue.
