The Serpents of Life and Death

The bridge between spirituality and money is happiness. Happiness isn't obtained without peace and peace is unreachable without balance.In the materialistic perspective about reality we notice a force confronting the need for equalization of complements in the path for spiritual development. Therefore, in its most metaphysical meaning, we can perceive the concept of balance as referring to the interaction between fire and water, earth and air, yin and yang, strength and weakness, action and inaction, man and woman, conscious and unconscious, and so on. In its pragmatic form, such duality is seen in the divergence between spirituality and money, as these two elements can be acknowledged as the lowest and highest forms of being - mind and matter, but also body and soul. The evaluation of concepts as high and low or good and bad, however, only finds a realization in the human mind, deluded by material operations related to space and time, and unaware of the importance each dualistic meaning has within the eternal cycle of life and death. A person can assume the possibility of life without one of the two poles, but such believe reveals false within the dynamics that affect existence. The Rig Veda, for example, clearly states that "A combination of righteous knowledge and righteous actions help us to earn wealth". Never were humans intended to prosper in health, intellect and spirit or body, mind and soul, without everything that supports and promotes life, money included. "The only question with wealth is: what do you do with it" (John D. Rockefeller). Wealth has become the main determinant of life on planet earth and a massive karmic challenge that, if surpassed, can lead to prosperity in all realms of existence and ascension, otherwise consume everyone in the fire of desire, self-destroying the mind and mankind, and not only that, as it can lead to the corruption of the spirit in and beyond the afterlife. When the bible refers to "the love of money" as being "the root of all kinds of evil" (Timothy 6:10) is talking about a life dominated by the force of monetary achievements, or the Serpent of Death, an energy leading all current affairs on this planet. This force is not under control and has not been properly assimilated. The study that this book proposes is based on the premise that life depends on the correct balance of forces controlling existence, as within this model, human beings ascend spiritually if they can incorporate financial gaining in life but descend to a lower world if failing to do so. The financial crisis that many nations, once prosperous, face today and many more will in the near future is based on this hidden energy, untamed by any other. The secret here exposed has been so well-hidden that the masses would see its revelation as blasphemy and, nevertheless, it couldn't be applied by elite secret societies for thousands of years if not true.
