DANIEL SUELO at LITHIC BOOKSTORE

Daniel Suelo speaks on The Physics & Spirituality of Gift Economy
at Lithic Bookstore and Gallery in Fruita, CO.

[@ericbray4286]

I've been dealing with unemployment during the pandemic, unhealthy coping mechanism, social isolation and possible loss of home. This talk helps me to understand an underlying dynamic on why things are not working out for us right now. The pandemic really opened up a possibility to see the direct connections between us and how an injury to one is an injury to all. My depression still feels overwhelming but somehow seeing someone live this way and give his perspective with integrity is healing to me.

[@MelissaDuffySacredBreath]

We are all born into this world naked, with nothing but our bodies. From there, all that we have is given to us by the earth.

[@kajallison8896]

true!

[@usernameunbelievable]

Yeah, actually our bodies are a part of the Earth too...

[@michaelagape5056]

Having studied the illusion of money, many of the ancient religions and cultures and having quit money close to five years ago, this resonates with me on many levels. Thank you, Brother, for sharing your insights into this "mass mental lillness". Peace and Agape

[@DanielSueloMoneylessWorld]

Thanks for the comment in the blog, too, Michael. I'm curious to know more about your "Agape experiment".

[@michaelagape5056]

Daniel Suelo Hi Daniel. I will contact you privately and outline it for you. Have a wonderful day

[@tylerwhitney3443]

I'm curious too Michael. Do you have a blog?

[@hewpow]

[@UFOxBAE]

I am in love with this man! LOL

[@jamespeters9012]

I have often said we are living in a feudalism in the US. We are all serfs...working to hopefully own a little piece of land.

[@DanielBjorndahl]

And that ownership is vanity. If you don't pay your taxes who owns it?

[@chrisanderson9157]

This man understands that the "Love of money is the root of ALL evil"

[@MelissaDuffySacredBreath]

One Bible story I thought of a lot during your talk was of prodigal son. His dad gave to the son who had 'done nothing' while his other son, who had 'done the work' and 'expected' to be rewarded got pissed off and said: "Why is he being given to, he was a 'lazy ass party boy?!." (My shorted version!) It reminds me of what you said: The sun doesn't give just to the 'righteous' and the rain falls on everyone. The other story that relates to this is Job. .Job did all the 'right things' but got 'plagued' with all sorts of troubles and people thus presumed 'oh he must have done something' 'WRONG" and is being 'PUNISHED' for his sins. In reality, he was being tested for his faith. There is a lot to this story. If you're doing 'good works' for a 'result' such as status/being in good standing and doing so with this expectation, this is immature belief. A deep faith is an acceptance of life as it is, whether you have severe challenges and trials or given 'rewards' for your efforts. The same philosophy exists today. Some people believe that if you are a 'good person' you will have material wealth, and if you are financially poor, homeless or are not generating money that you are automatically 'unworthy' a 'sinner,' lazy or 'unfit' and 'undeserving.' I was thinking how 'the principle of 'entrophy can be equated with the current economic system predominating in our world today based on a 'debt' economy. Entrophy is an accelerating loss of order where decline and collapse inevitably results! Entrophy exists in a 'closed' thermodynamic system, rather than an 'open' system. Thomas Berry who called himself a 'geologian' once told me that "in nature "everything is always sacrificing for everything else." " The universe is fundamentally sacrificial!" I really like that and this is so true. In this sense, Christ is symbolic of the essential nature of the universe! By the way, human DNA is only about 10% of our genome. The Human Biome project revealed that yeasts, fungi and bacteria living symbiotically as a 'part' of 'us' are actually are about 90% of our DNA! I

[@DanielSueloMoneylessWorld]

Your insights are good, Melissa. Yeah, all things must balance out, including overpopulation & over-use. And I like the prodigal son observation. It's the same principle in the other parable about the hired workers in the field.

[@joannebohan2243]

amazing so true

[@social.b]

thank you....your response made me emotional....truth has that effect on me

[@valv7664]

So glad you are back Daniel. I have missed your blogs. Thank-you for sharing your insights and blossoms. Though I don't agree with all you say, I find your perspective and experiences and research, very thought provoking. :) If for no other reason, I hope people will hear you and just stop to think a little.

[@DanielSueloMoneylessWorld]

Gratitude rebounded to you, Val.

[@tommyhf9999]

Daniel Suelo do you know that we breath in oxygen given by plants and in return we give them co2(carbon dioxide) which they need as we breath out? This seems like a good example but I never see you use this in your speeches. :)

[@Karina-xt7pp]

🙏❤🙏

[@checkthecoding]

Thank you. I receive it! And thanks to Lithic Bookstore for hosting a significant and articulate messenger.

[@paigeolivem85]

I just Love this man....so soft spoken and gentle natured....

[@VILHELM1221]

Great lecture. No doubt worthy of an honorary doctorates

[@xavieroluain9212]

You've been a wonderful inspiration since my friend, Jack Buck, told me about your story. He met you in Fruita at a reading of his and spoke highly. Thank you so much for shining, Daniel

[@plutoplatters]

It's strange. I completely "get all of this" "but" if everyone was like Daniel ... A gadzillion things would NOT exist. Deep i know...

[@silaswild6233]

Of course they would, money isn't a cup of coffee, an apple, a bag of rice, these things would still exist without money. Money is abstract, it exists virtually. Money is just a form of currency to swap for resources, if you have a billion pounds in the bank and want a luxury yacht and there aren't the resources left to build it, the 'money' is no good

[@naturelove4448]

I am more intrigued by the MESSENGER, as oppose to the MESSAGE. This is a very virtuous human being, with a nature so gentle, intelligent, compassionate, humble, creative, bold and pure! Well my description of him are just words, and just don't give justice to this soul! Although my ever developing values, philosophy, and perceptions on life is quite of a unique and different nature, I am still humbled by this man, and whole heartedly respect both him and his mission, with all it's gathered accomplishments.

Amen... John 3:8 King James Version (KJV) 8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. Amen

The kingdom of God is at hand. “Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.”” ‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭3‬ ‭

[@MetalheadDoon]

The dude has a radical perspective and I admire it. To live like that takes a very strong will! you would have to give up all you love. Okay, I have seen animals fight over food. A badger took on a grizzly bear for honey! they do fight over food and territory. Most people are motivated by money, sex, and power. Scripture even says in Galatians 6:7: Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. It's not capitalism, it's "cartelism".

[@wildwindings]

This was water on the heart. Thank you so much! 🙏❤️

[@shaunhall960]

Daniel is a genius. I'm going to reflect on what he has said here.

[@rickmoore2279]

DANIEL is RICH to HAVE HIS MOTHER TOO

[@naturalisted1714]

We have a human-centric view on this exchange. That's why capitalism emerged.

[@plutoplatters]

I think animals don't " Mind-F" And humans spend their whole life doing this.

[@caroleelagrone9729]

Is there still ways to get ahold of Daniel??? Has there been more video's of his talks? Is he still living with out money? Where does he live now?

[@kroneexe]

I don't know him, but it seems like he has settled for living normally indefinitely.

[@6bim4uYGfeGSM4jdEm9g2]

daniel suelo at a STORE???!!

[@diogenesthevlog6589]

Good to see you

[@ElunearaStarsong]

Genius.

LIFELONG FREELOADER

[@cullenpurser3370]

This morning at 4:00 AM, the Lifelong Freeloader got up, bundled his 90 year-old mom up in lots of warm blankets and pushed her in her wheelchair about a mile (at her request) to see the Blue Moon reflecting on the river.

[@johnclark3152]

so he finally did something for someone other than his parasitical self? Wonders will never cease. So he gets a medal for helping his own mother?

[@DanielSueloMoneylessWorld]

I invite you to come visit me, John. I'm serious. I find it's wiser to know somebody even a little bit before assuming things about them. I'm living at 413 Forty Niner Dr., Fruita, Colorado. 970-639-2771. Some might think it foolish that I post this info publicly & open my door to a stranger. But most anything worthwhile is worth some risk, don't you think?

[@johnclark3152]

It's nice that you have a fixed abode. Life without risk, calculated if possible, can be bland.

[@marblesthecat3861]

John Clark.... No, he's not.
