Is Money the Root of All Evil?

Posted in: belief, Channeling, Law of Attraction, Physics, Psychic medium, Suffering, The Physics of Thought, Universe

One of the blog members posed a very thought provoking question recently, and I was a little surprised by Erik’s response.

Me: Erik, why do so many people have so much money while others starve?

Jamie: I know! Isn’t it unfair?

Me: Yeah. What’s that all about?

Erik: We can chalk that up to lessons. It’s all about the fear that there isn’t abundance. But there’s enough for everyone. 

Me: Okay.

Erik: For instance, there’s enough food for everyone all over the world, even though it might not seem like it.

Me: Yeah. Well it seems like there are finite resources, right?

Erik: Actually, no. I know it’s hard to imagine, but you have the power to create whatever you fuckin’ want. Even a new universe. 

Me: Whoa, what?

Erik: But what happens is, we’re taught that maybe we can’t have it or that we’re not good enough. It’s your own personal lesson to stand up and say, “This is what I want, and this is what I’m getting.”

Me: Okay, but what about the other side? Shouldn’t we feel indignant when some people have an obscene amount of wealth, more than they could possibly spend while so many people are suffering in poverty? 

Erik: Like I said, everybody can have what they want. Scarcity is a bullshit illusion.

Me: So the super wealthy aren’t doing something wrong? They’re not evil?

Erik: No! Humans have just created this reality of limited resources, and I know it’s hard to imagine, but it doesn’t have to be that way. 

Me: Okay, good—unless the rich use their money for nefarious purposes, of course.

Erik (laughing): What, like porn?

Me: Oh, that’s okay, watching or reading porn, as long as someone does so privately and it doesn’t exploit or harm others, like kids. To each his own.

Erik: No, if we get into that sort of thinking, we’re going down that path of judgment again.

Me: Exactly!

Erik: So, abundance is infinite. The only thing in the way is your narrow awareness and weak intention. Most people people just don’t believe they can create wealth, so they can’t. And some people don’t think they deserve it, so they don’t get it. A lot of people think the rich poor thing is unfair, so they just keep that idea going on and on. That idea of inequality is the reality the collective belief creates. 

Me: Makes sense. I guess. 

Erik: And people’s level of abundance varies so greatly. You know, if we go to a tribe in Africa and we ask, “What’s your idea of abundance,” it might be capturing one big animal a week.

Me: Ah!

Erik: It doesn’t have to do with the clothes they wear, the threads they use, or other possessions. America is so driven by material things, that our definition of abundance—

Jamie (giggling): He looked at me and, I don’t know, he kind of dropped his posture and cocked his head and said, “ so fucked up!”

Me: Oh, my god, I can just see him doing that with his body!

Jamie: He kind of went ghetto; you know how you do your fingers, like to the back?”

Me: Yeah, yeah!

Erik: —so fucked up! And so we don’t know how to get out of that definition, and that spiritual evolution we’re kicking into is going to help us, but right now we’re such a sick society. 

Me: We’re still so ego-driven, I guess.

Erik (announcing like a ringmaster in a circus): EGOCENTRIC! Everything revolves around MY ass!

Jamie and I laugh.

Me: I guess that stokes the fires of the separation illusion. In order for me to be me, I have to have an enemy to oppose. That’s how people define their own separate egos, by having counterparts.  

Erik: Yes! But that’s just another lesson. What sort of abundance is worth creating for yourself? What sort of abundance helps you evolve?

********************

On a final note, Amy suggested we create a Channeling Erik radio talk show using www.blogtalkradio.com. I think it’s a wonderful idea, and my question is this: would any of you like to host our show from time to time? It would be a great way to get your name out there and showcase and practice your skills whether they include channeling, healing, past life regression, or other spiritual gifts.

Be sure to share the love with any or all of the social connect buttons below!

    What sort of abundance is worth creating for yourself? What sort of abundance helps you evolve? Wow! these are two powerful questions for my own evolution. Knowing my real purpose and trying to live in the “now”!. Like they say: “When you know better, you do better”. Thank you Erik for the lesson.

    Wonderful idea for the radio talk show! Wish I was more evolve to collaborate on this project. Thanks CE Family for everything you do.

    What Erik is saying here is Exactly what Abraham is saying in the Hicks books. So much confirmation. Our beliefs and thoughts create our reality. Abundance is there for us all…we dont need to take it from others..we can create whatever life we want by changing our thoughts and discarding old beliefs about ourselves. It takes some practice, but it is def possible.
    I love the idea of the blog radio show….so many people would be reached..and their lives changed for the better. My own life has been so drastically turned around..and finding my smile again is a miracle to me. Thanks Erik! You got me started. Hope my CE family knows how very much I love them all……xoxo

    Erik I love you and the way you don’t mince your words, so cool, this is the same message I have been reading over and over but Erik got to the core of it in just a few sentences.. to the point, very powerful, very true and thank you for reminding me.. x

  • Anonymous

    Oh and about the radio, do we have to have a specific talent? can we share our experiences and new understandings? Love the idea, I think it’s a fantastic next step forward for CE and I’ll be tuning in!

    • http://www.channelingerik.com Elisa Medhus, MD

      I don’t think we need any talents, really. I don’t have any. I’m not a healer or channeler, etc. But we all have stories to share. Many of us have been blindsided by tragedy, only to find our way out of the darkness and into the light. These stories can inspire and give hope.

    Whoa! Well said, professor patrick!

  • Ryan Geraghty

    I have channeled a lot on this myself. I still don’t understand how this applies to the starving children though. There are babies that can’t eat and they die. I can’t wrap my head around how these innocents are supposed to be creating their abundance.

    A note about the occupy movements, my understanding of their message isn’t upset at the fact that some have more than others, its that some cheated most out of what they had to get sickly rich. Its the cheating and lack of accountability that started the protests from everything I have read.

    • Patrick

      I like the Occupy _____ (fill in venue) protests, I am glad most participants don’t appear (emphasis on “appear”; I trust little news reporting) to grasp the causes; otherwise they wouldn’t be there. The demonstrations are a good symptom of many ills.

      There is no such thing as “sickly rich” True cheaters are thieves (e.g. Bernie Madoff) and accountability is best enforced BY FAR through free, unencumbered markets. Honest competition keeps competition honest; corrupt defaults to fair on its own. I do NOT mean no regulation, a term so distorted it’s lost meaning; now a euphemism for authoritarian intervention and oppressive control.

      Many things sought by Occupy Wall St are what contribute significantly as causes of starving children. I have lived in and visited many such countries.

      The shift in consciousness that will result from the impending physical upheaval of Earth will soon address many of these issues, in addition to starving children.

      • Ryan Geraghty

        not looking to derail the thread here. We can continue the discussion through email if need be. I don’t see a whole lot of disagreement here other than that I think there needs to be more attention paid to the cheating that was very madoff-like that has so far been endorsed and cheered by both political parties for the last 30 or so years. This cheating is done in large part by the investment banking industry who seems to be driving the country. Its hard to nail down the OWS “main goals”, but I have been following the organizers from before the actual protests began and the main goal is a government that is accountable to its citizens instead of corporate entities, and accountability for the criminals/bankers who so far have barely seen a wagging finger from our elected officials. Beyond that, its really up to individual movements. Our movement in Boise has a large libertarian presence in it, while I would think that the movement in Seattle has a stronger presence for socialist reform. My personal stance is that all the socialist vs libertarian discussions are entertaining at best, but are worthless without the mentioned goals of accountability of the powerful to the people. I don’t see how those goals can contribute at all to the starving of children. And I still fail to see how starving children can create their own abundance.

      • Patrick

        The “powerful” are that way because WE give it to them.

        Contemplate all registered voters casting ballots for themselves in every local, state and federal election.

      • Ryan Geraghty

        The “powerful” are that way because they have the money to stay powerful. To think they have equal influence as say me in global policy is silly. Politicians listen to donators behind closed doors and they feed the voters nonsense. a government held accountable to its citizens is the ideal because it levels things out. Instead, money controls everything and the money is localized at the top. creating a system that keeps the money at the top insures that the power stays put. It feels much more like the powerful have taken power by buying the government and then legalizing whatever they want. While I have some options to avoid feeding the machine, many of the poorest areas of our country do not have options and are simply fed upon. I can see the argument that if I don’t like the influence big oil has, then I stop driving or consuming whatever product thereby taking their power back. In reality though, this theory doesn’t work. I work very hard to not support companies I don’t like, and I work hard to make other aware of why. My influence is not noticed. people see me as a “downer” and I’m shrugged at and ignored. How would I stop letting the powerful be powerful?

        Again, I’m off topic, this is a discussion that belongs somewhere else. As for todays discussion, I still don’t understand how todays pre-shift starving children are supposed to create their own abundance. Children are full of joy and love and light. They are as close to perfect as humans get, and they are still left to starve, suffer unimaginably, and die. Where is their abundance?

      • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1027593595 Steve Trask

        I agree, Ryan. I get the fact that I have abundance via my own work with the power of attraction. I’m doing well. But I don’t get how I, or anyone else, should only be concerned with my own wealth and abundance and let others fend for themselves, especially children or people that don’t have the education or intelligence to know how to make it. I feel that as a society, we need to take care of each other…not just ourselves. I think that message is lost here.

        Ryan, I just wanted to say I agree with everything you wrote.

  • JaneG

    So the Somalians just aren’t wanting food enough? Maybe they should read the Secret and their famine will end! It can’t be that they’re being exploited or anything.

    Not with Erik on this one. Don’t understand his answer at all. No mention of how the obscenely wealthy get it by exploiting people, especially the poor and developing nations.

    On one hand we’re not supposed to judge anyone and obscene material wealth is just fine. On the other hand we’re a sick society that’s “fucked up” b/c Americans are driven by material things? Which is it?

    I can assure everyone that most of the obscenely wealthy ARE doing a LOT that is sickeningly wrong. Beyond criminal. I’m talking about people who make 300million a year. And it’s not because of their wealth per se, it’s how they get it and how they use it to have power over others.

    If someone is wealthy and doesn’t gain it by exploiting or preying on others, and they seek to end inequality, their wealth is not a problem and good for them in my opinion. It’s the exploitation and oppression for power and material wealth that is so wrong, and these people are the worst about visualizing and perpetuating and literally causing inequality and scarcity in our world. These super wealthy actually profit by causing scarcity, even and especially with food supplies!

    “a decade of unparalleled thievery and corruption, with tens of millions entering the ranks of the hungry thanks to artificially inflated commodity prices, and millions more displaced from their homes by corruption in the mortgage markets…”

    (ps i am not endorsing rolling stone here. i don’t like it. but Taibbi is an actual journalist who has been working on these investigative stories for the past few years.)

    Please, no one take this to mean we need to blame the suffering for their suffering b/c they aren’t visualizing or demanding abundance. It most assuredly is much more complex and results from the mentality of the world community, not only the poor.

    • Ash

      I find this thread to be pretty timely in regards to a video I just watched on Youtube a couple of weeks ago – take a look:

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTbdnNgqfs8

      It’s an interview with the author of a book called, “Confessions of an Economic Hitman” and basically talks about how he was recruited by the government to bankrupt other countries. I can’t say as to whether or not he is telling the truth, but honestly, not much seems out of the realm of possibility to me these days!

      I like to look at and consider many scenarios. This is just one consideration.

      And on a slightly unrelated note – I also finished reading “The Secret History of the World” by Mark Booth. Many of his assertions seem in line with what Erik and others talk about, but I’ve never heard it put in this sort of context. A heavy read – not in completely metaphysical terms, but in a historical context – but I still recommend it.

    • AmyPal

      I get what you’re saying to a certain point. But everyone suffers in this life, I don’t care how poor or how wealthy, how hungry or how satiated. The hungry have struggles that are obvious, but what about a hunger for money that can never be satiated, no matter how wealthy you get? What about the suffering that comes from never getting to the point where you can feel that you finally have enough to share with others? You would always feel, in the deep recesses of your mind, both unsatisfied and afraid. And your smug, self-importance would attract shallow and meaningless people and relationships into your life, and the lack of a true connection to others would eventually lead to extreme loneliness.

      And the funny thing is that–because our society values money and material wealth–these people might never be able to figure out why they feel so unhappy for, after all, they have all the money they need. What more could they want? The money masks the real reason why they feel so badly (feel bad? just buy something else to temporarily salve the pain), and prevents them from seeing the avenue by which they could feel better.

      No one gets out of this life without suffering.

  • JaneG

    A functioning sewer system is paid for out of public funds. By the GOVERNMENT.

    • Patrick

      The government gets the money where? From US and here’s a shocker….WE are the government.

      The money is borrowed by selling bonds, issued and arranged by an investment bank that provides the service FOR FEES. Investors inject money because the arrangement appears profitable for them. The investment bank prepares the deal such that investors have confidence. A tax is imposed by us upon ourselves to pay back the borrowed money used to build the sewers, roads, etc.

    So many lessons, so little time. Wait. Never mind. We’re eternal beings, so we can take all sorts of remedial courses. But seriously, Anna, you make some brilliant points. Each choice we make, even each thought we form, is ripe with lessons, not only for us, but for the collective and other individuals. It ripples across the collective consciousness, affecting every inch of its infinite vastness. There is something to learn in every wave, “good” or “bad.” We only need to be aware of those lessons and embrace them warts and all.

  • http://www.channelingerik.com Elisa Medhus, MD

    Awesome. I’ll keep y’all posted. I have to wait until Jamie comes back from Japan which is at the end of this month. Keep my email, though: emedhus@gmail.com.

  • http://www.channelingerik.com Elisa Medhus, MD

    Yes poverty is complex and it’s the creation of the individual, the community, the nation, and the entire collective. Erik isn’t suggesting that it’s that easy. This idea of infinite abundance is something that must be embraced, understood and accepted as truth on a deep soul level by the entire collective or at least a good portion of it before we can all reap its fruits. We have vast powers that we still have NO idea how to tap. In our state of being so fettered by our own beliefs, it all seems insurmountable. He’s just saying that our narrow beliefs keep us from tapping into that power. I think I remember some place where he said we’re able to stop bullets with our thoughts just like on the movie, The Matrix. Look how he and other incarnate spirits can create anything with their thoughts. They can travel across the cosmos with one thought. They can create snowy mountains to snowboard on. They can create huge lecture halls, pizza, etc. This is our innate power. I’m sure the human construct of linear time, sequential language and a paltry three dimensional reality cramps our style, though.

    I really appreciated this one too, Elisa. The title made me think of a speech in the book “Atlas Shrugged” where one of the main characters is refuting someone’s comment about money being the root of all evil.

    I remember reading that at one time, and feeling there was a lot of truth to what she wrote. I found it and have linked it here.

        No I haven’t seen it yet. Have you? I did enjoy the book.

        Thank you for your question about the movie, because it just reminded me that the DVD is supposed to come out this month! I can’t remember the date, though. I’ll check now.

        (Yes, I actually am checking…….)

        It looks like it was released last week, Nov. 8! Time to go shopping on Ebay.

        I will look for The Art of Selfishness.

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1027593595 Steve Trask

    Yes, this definitely aligns with all the power of attraction information that is flowing today. I do see that everyone seems to have a lack of abundance. The ueber wealthy who oppose a 0.7% tax increase when taxes are lower than they have been in 50 years are not in abundance. They have lack and fear of losing all that they have. The people who are poor also have lack of abundance and perpetuate their poverty. It’s both sides.
    However, I agree with the poster that babies and children are the innocents who are affected here.

    I would love to host the show from time to time, I also would not mind sharing some of my insights and I think there are many others here who would do so as well.

    • http://www.channelingerik.com Elisa Medhus, MD

      I would LOVE to have you host the show from time to time, Amy! Once Jamie returns from Japan, let’s get a list of those who want to be a part of this radio show and set up a conference call to discuss its future and our individual roles. She comes back around November 29th, I think. I’m trying to get Robert on board, but he tends to prefer staying in the background. He’s very good at relying on the universe to show him when the time is right for things. Also, I haven’t heard from any of the other channelers, but I know we have some healers that can host some shows. I’m figuring with all the talent we have each host could have a one hour show every couple of months. Think of the spiritual insight and healing we can spread!

  • http://www.channelingerik.com Elisa Medhus, MD

    I wish I knew when to step in and help and when to stand back and let the lesson unfold. Does anyone have the answer to this question? Jason, do our guides have any advice?

  • Acavanaughcpc

    Lets have a conference call one night this week for people interested in the Blog Spot, what I am thinking is those of us who have our own work to showcase can get started with our own shows, then when you speak to Jamie we can either fold Erik in or we can start a separate “station”.

    What night works?

    I’m wondering if we even need the Fed. Every department or entity we create just seems to become machines of corruption and greed.

    • Ryan Geraghty

      Its like fast food government. Instead of selling you something healthy, they sell you something tasty and point out that it has 0% TRANS FAT NOW! or 100% BEEF. and we are supposed to be like, whoa, I guess thats good? My personal thought with most arms of the government is that they should be made to work as they were intended. They have served good purposes in the past, but there is no doubt that they have been corrupted. The republicans don’t really want to eliminate government, just like the democrats don’t really want to build up social assistance programs (at least not any that run for the big office) they all just want to yell and sell us yesterday’s shit NOW WITH SAVORY PORK FLAVOR. The fed had a theoretical purpose at one point, but it sure didn’t ever behave as anything decent.

  • Tracy Lamont

    Have any of you read ‘The Secret’? The book is exactly based on what Erik is saying.
    We create everything for ourselves and like attracts like.

    So, if you are feeling good and your vibrations are high, your day tends to go well with few hitches. You catch the train, you have a good rapport with your colleagues, work goes without a hitch etc….

    But when you’r in a fug – as I was the other day – nothing goes right. I’d let myself get bogged down by the negative energy of an ego-lead ‘friend’ of mine. Her troubles were laying heavy on me and I couldn’t get her out of my mind. (She tends to call me when she wants to off-load – she says it makes her feel so much better!) Well now I know why – because she’s laying it all on me!

    Anyway, I was in a fug, I was cross with her, cross with myself for letting her off-load on me and my day went badly. Nothing went right, I argued with Neil and he instantly realized I was ‘taking it out on HIM because I didn’t want to hurt HER feelings’. I had no patience with my kids at school and made them unhappy, this, in turn spoiled my day ‘cos I love my kids. I came home, decided to clean house to purge myself and dropped one of my treasured ornaments. It broke and cut me in the process!

    I knew what had to be done, but I was asking Erik if I should ‘cos I felt mean. I know he was pushing to do it so I called her and said I wanted a break from her and didn’t want her burdening me anymore with her problems. She wasn’t happy but I felt like a weight had lifted off my shoulders.

    I still feel a bit mean, but I also feel I’m back up to my own vibration. I can’t afford to let myself drop down. If I do, the grief takes over me again. And if she were being a good friend to me, she would realize that.

    • Pamie0424

      Tracy,

      I have read The Secret and watched the video. I really try hard to keep all of the principles in mind and practice them, but I must be doing something wrong, LOL.

      I don’t think you have to feel mean about doing what you had to do…there are people like that…physic vampires, I have heard them called, that can drain every ounce of joy and positivity out of you, then waltz away satisfied. In that situation, the only thing you can do is to protect yourself. I admire your courage, knowing from experience how hard it is to do what you did.

    Perhaps it would suffice to say that money is not the root of all evil – the WANT of money is.

    • http://www.channelingerik.com Elisa Medhus, MD

      Well I think it’s okay to want money. It’s what you do with it that matters. It should never be used in a way that harms or infringes upon the rights, freedoms and opportunities of others. Sadly, it often has that negative effect.

        I am late to the discussion, but after reading all the comments here last night, I went to bed with it all very much on my mind. I woke this morning at 5am and this thought popped into my head..like a light bulb suddenly going on.
        Alot of us here are asking for abundance, and question why it is not in Somalia, east L.A. etc. Here is what came to me….
        If I do not appreciate the abundance I have now..in this moment..the warm home, the love of family, the beauty in the world, enough food to fill me…why on earth would God-source send me more? when I do not appreciate what I have now? I think this is key to asking for more..of whatever in your life. Have to see all the abundance and goodness we have been blessed to have in out lives and be grateful for it…if we can do that, then Source sends us more of the same. By picking apart what is not working, we are focusing on what does not work…so we get more of the same.
        Somewhere in the Seth books, he mentions that we are not here to save the world..or cure all its problems. We are here to simply find our joy..and grow/expand with it. If there was no contrast in the world..how could you choose what you do want over what you do not want? The contrast is necessary in the world..and our egos will not solve the worlds many problems..and by focusing on them, we strengthen them.
        I felt for a very long time that I was cursed with tragedy. I was damn angry about it. I lost my beautiful son..and my world collapsed. I stayed angry and in the pity party mode for months. But in the time since he passed over…I am seeing just how happy he is…(all I ever wanted for him) he is around constantly…where before he was by once in a week…and my world has expanded with that passing. I have friends here, more love than I could ever return, I have grown thru this…I am seeing, by his leaving, just how precious the 23 years I had with him here are. Every moment relived is special and singularly cherished. Again..contrast.
        Andy tells me to do what feels good..to find that and roll with it. I believe that as I do that..as I find my joy again, with him along for the ride, that the joy I find will join the world consciousness and improve the world for us all.
        If I focus on what I see that is not good..not as I want…I give it strength…so I am focusing on what I have that is good, what I see that is awesome…for there is much of it around us. I think if we do that…let go of the anger and fear..I think we can and will make a better world. The reason for the starving children is perhaps a concept beyond our comprehension…our egos may want to find reasons for it…but I am better off finding self love, appreciation for the abundance I have..and let the love expand to the world around me.
        OK…I am done rattling. sorry…but I got so excited when that idea hit me about abundance. Time to go finish my coffee now. Love you all…and am grateful for your being there for me. xoxoxoxoxo

        Oh my sweet Iola, sometimes I think our lives are pages from the same book. I understand what you mean. It’s hard to find joy after losing our boys, and more abundance is not going to help. It has to come from within. Our babies are by our side trying to guide us in our search for that joy. Love you infinity.

    Okay.

    Erik says it’s about letting go. Letting go of all fear based emotions. On the 29th he’s going to discuss this on The Sheila Show and I think he’s also going to discuss this whole topic in Austin March 2-4. Until then, I’m just as in the dark as the rest of you.

    I think sharing your story would be very comforting to an audience of those who have had similar hardships, so yes!

    Lots of other good reading on this topic – books and seminars by Australian entrepeneur Jamie McIntyre, well known for his first book “What I Didnt Learn At School But Wish I Had,”
    He runs lots of good seminars, he has a website “21stCenturyEducation” He has become increasingly spiritual in his outlook and there is lots of interesting reading there.

    Kalibashe…perhaps you could look into finding a “spiritual-minded” meet-up group in your area which could offer some assistance and support…a place to connect, express and share without fear of judgement.

    …and no…you are not cursed…nor inadequate. You have a special purpose here on earth at this time just like the rest of us. It’s just a matter of discovering or “remembering” what it is…and then sharing it with the rest of the world. Chin up…and keep thinking those positive thoughts!

    Sending oodles of love, light and healing your way. :)

    Stanley this is how it comes to me too, I wont actively channel someone but will get certain images and feelings and thought pass through quickly almost too quickly for me to put words to it. Yet I read Jason or Eriks words and Im like hey yea that’s what I was thinking about the other day. Keep babbling Stanley I love it :)

      Hello,

      I actually freaked my mom out this morning. I was in the bathroom and heard “pain in shoulder”. So seeking validation I came out and asked her if her shoulder hurt. She said yea, how did you know? I told her I was told. Kind of freaked her out. LOL.

      It’s strange because in the beginning I got messages here and there. Now it seems like I am picking up messages several times a day now. Every time I have to pick my jaw up off the floor. Not that it’s a shock that the messages are true, but that it’s me who is actually doing this.

      I had always dreamed of being able to channel, I just never thought it would actually happen. Guess if you want your dreams bad enough life finds a way. :) Follow those dreams people. **hug**

      -Stanley
