The Spirit Creator

So the conversation went like this

M: Is there a god?

Y: There is but not in the form that people think it is.

M: So what it is?

Y: I cannot really answer that question. However, you may perceive God form in the story that follows. It is a story of a young man who loves to read the story of the deceased spirits because he believes that by reading their books he will be able to find the secret of life. He is particularly fond of one book who tell the tales of this wonderful king and warrior who was touched by the grace of God.  He had built an army of followers who were ready to die for him so that God's ultimate scheme for his life could be accomplished. He is so fond of the story that he decide to become a follower of the precepts and advice of the deceased spirit so that he is able to meet his destiny.

M: Isn't it how most religions are organised, we have a prophet who help us to find our way to God.

Y: Yes, it appears to be a mean to an end. One must be careful to distinguish messages from the invisible to messages from the deceased spirit.

M: Why?

Y: Choosing the deceased spirit as the creator of one's life can be disastrous. God scheme for the deceased life has already been accomplished. He followed his own heart in the context in which he lived, he developed his own practice and conducted his behaviour to fit in with people he was with at a particular point in time. The life of the deceased may be quite different from the lives of most people today. The same applies to the self-help books of the living being who are too quick to direct the lost soul. The lover of books can forget to listen to himself and experience the Now. Before he knows it, all spirits are directing his or her life.

M: so how to distinguish the spirits from God so we accomplish our own scheme.

Y: Good question. This is quest, we all have to go through.

Keynes vs Minsky

I am a beginner in economics but reading Positive Money book 'Modernising Money' by Ben Dyson and Andrew Jackson. My interest grew in the work of Minsky and encouraged me to read more about Keynes. Keynes economics promote the view that in the long run economics system converge into an equilibrium with the support of the government. Nevertheless you cannot help the role of banks in the system and wonder after reading the following quote: “But this long run is a misleading guide to current affairs. In the long run we are all dead. Economists set themselves too easy, too useless a task if in tempestuous seasons they can only tell us that when the storm is long past the ocean is flat again.”   (Keynes, 1923) This imply that economists did not comprehend why we had a financial crisis and collapse.  Minsky with  his model 'Financial Instability Hypothesis' strive to answer this question.  The idea in Minsky's work in a 'simplistic summary is that in very

Leicester Stories: What conversations and discussions did you have with people living and working in Leicester?

Dr Rob Watson interviewed me as part of Leicester Stories series #BuildBackBetter in July 2021.  Prior to the interview, he sent me few questions for me to prepare the interview and start thinking about what it means to Build Back Better post-pandemic. In the following post, I answer one of the questions augmented after reflecting upon the interview R: I’d like to know what conversations and discussions people living and working in Leicester had during the lockdown, especially when these conversations started to focus on the idea of Building Back Better? Through the lockdown, my discussion were upon the tools available to people to support their mental health and connections with others. In a trauma-informed programme, the first steps are stabilisation and regulation. In other words, if someone is in a state of shock, the first step is to ground them and help them manage their emotions. In our community, we experienced first hand what it is to be in a state of shock during the pandemic
