or sphere of the mind
It is about developing your skills and aspirations, about being who you want to be in freedom.
On the level of society this sphere is about mutual respect and living togheter with a variety of points of view and insights.
Important components to this sphere are:
- abilities
- ideas
- values
- rituals
Inspirational life is connected to freedom: feeling liberated and let others live in liberation.
Our constitutional understanding of 'freedom of speech' is not clear to us and getting more controversial.
We need to develop more consciousness on this.
The current explanation of 'freedom of speech' is that 'we must be able to state what we want'.
This is an impoverishment to the original concept of freedom.
or sphere of legal life
It is about equivalence and reciprocity.
Politics and democracy also belong to this sphere.
Important components to this sphere are:
- laws
- regulations
- agreements and rules
- rights and obligations
Informal agreements also apply.
Connected living is about equality and equivalence.
That's worth the pursuit but up to now we didn't work get further than equality of opportunities' and equal treatment.
Equivalence when it comes to respecting every human being.
Regardless of where he/she comes from and who they are, is still something we are not familiar with.
or sphere of economics
About meeting each others needs and about fair sharing and fair distibution of recourses.
Important components are:
- products
- services
Economic living has a connection to togetherness, inclusion and co-creation.
In the present day we know solidairity in a limited circle, witch proves we've just begun trying te be borders and sisters.
The ideal that we can co-create our economic lives leaves a lot of work in the near future.
inspirational
economic
Therewith they create their own force field.
The balance between the sphere's of life is important, in todays life we are witness that one sphere is overgrowing the others.
That will be the sphere of economics, our economic living.
It suffocates the other sphere's with the logic of money, with competition, with efficiency and cuts.
The three sphere's of living are connected in coherence. Together they form the big picture in which each sphere should have its own value and input.
The sphere of rights and obligations, connected living, is intermediary to the inspirational and economic living.
Connected living regulates, weighs and helps to prevents the balance from overshooting.
This ego-cracy makes us function on the back burner and we take it for granted. "
