Money - ShunIt!

Money disappears from the world. The world comes to a standstill. People don’t know how to survive anymore. How they earn? How do they value their services? How can GDP be measured? The basis of our existence and success is measured by the money we make. The entire concept of wealth and what we strive for is eradicated in one stroke. Money is a piece of paper that is extremely important and now that piece of paper is worth nothing.
One guy realised that instead of bartering services for money, services will be bartered in exchange. Each one helps the other person in whatever way they need. If a person is specialised in a particular craft, then they either trade skills or they help the other person with the job that needs to be done. The society as a whole slowly ceases to measure things obsessively and simply goes ahead do things that it needs to sustain itself. Be it art, crafts, music, film making or anything, everything is done and practiced, but the reason is not for money. It is for that person’s will and desire.
Food, water and nourishment becomes priority. We learn to co-exist and nourish nature and our surroundings. Agriculture, plants and trees become more important than technology. Our entire existence undergoes a paradigm shift and we learn to co-exist with nature and animals.

Man becomes more social, and anti-social elements of the society are not encouraged since the existence of man is now dependent on how interactive and social he is with his fellow men and surroundings. He would be isolated or he would have to grow his own food so as to survive. Of course, there would be other kinds of anti-social behaviours that would be encouraged. Man has a mind that can be twisted and can twist any kind of goodness into evil. For, where there is a God, a devil also co-exists and it depends on the ratio of how much God and how much Devil a person is innately made of. One can only hope that it will eventually get balanced.
