    Important to avoid false dichotomies between right/left brain, beancounters/mysticists, etc? There's a potential for waste, excess, etc in everything?

    WOW you nailed it Brother. And I smell what God is cooking in these mystic's. Maybe I'm One; a Mystic. Because I just always remember my first love Christ and get out of my own way and in doing so transcend Worldliness and am in "Par Nirvana" so to speak. United with the God Head Universe ect... Essence of all. Im not a scholar but seeker in Truth and found myself here in emptiness.🕊️✌️☮️🧧☸️🙏

    It is not about politics or economics. It is about spirituality versus the absolute dominance of matter and the material world and the obsession with things and power, maintaining the status quo at any cost. Those in power, none of them in politics or religion, are fit to be there as they are simply concerned with maintaining the regime and the established order of things, with all the corruption in society, and with filling their own pockets and feeding their own urge to power and following their own dark designs of their inflated egos. They do not care about justice, fairness, equality or the betterment of others, except their own class. They are working on their own agendas. They do not care about democracy, only about capitalism, the greatest evil ever invented. In education it is only about feeding the intellect and unquestioning acceptance of academia. Whereas we should be asking: Is there a deeper purpose in life than what the senses tell us? Is there something intangible but far more important than anything else, than what we see or hear or think? Are we ignoring the heart, the subtle level of deep feelings? Has our own spirit been hidden from us by our obsession with ourselves, obtaining possessions, and the things of the world? Is this flesh and brain all we are or is there something far greater and more universal within us of incalculable value? Are the beliefs of others we have adopted, including those of religion, hiding the truth from us of our own sacred being and true nature? And lastly, how do we unfold that which may be far greater than anything we have ever known and more joyful and fulfilling than anything we have ever guessed or sensed? I suggest we have been stuck in a cloud of delusion far too long and the only place, the only door to the light is within, as nothing without in society has ever worked nor ever will.

    I completely agree about education being ripe for revolution and disruption. I would recommend, in regards to economics - that folks with an open mind look up the Free To Choose series by Milton Friedman, or the 12 Rules for Life by Jordan Peterson - both which by far out-debates anything by the Socialists or Marx.

    In wich way is Eckhart a warrior of our times? Or did you chose this title because it sells better. Who does not want to be a warrior even if he is a nobody?

    Keep your political opinions out - Eckhart would not appreciate it.
