A Way for the Rich to Redeem Themselves
An idea: If someone could enlighten or bring real love to the super rich in our world they would realize that their hoarding of wealth for selfish ego purposes harms the rest of humanity. They need to realize that the man on the street corner started out with the same conscious sense of self that they did and that his experiences of pain and poverty are as real as the rich's experiences of splendor and luxury. I bet there exists a special place in hell or the cosmos for the super rich who realize their commonality with everyman and continue to hoard wealth for no perceivable reason except extreme greed. Maybe they are reborn as dung beetles or something suiting for their shit-hoarding habits. If these people would step down from their pedestal and realize that the world is full of people just like them with the same fragile consciousness they may have hope for redemption. If the super-rich suddenly all experienced intense unity or the mystic experience they may even band together in order to give away all their wealth in order to enrich the living standards of all men. If all these tycoons redeemed their greed through an act of gratuitous yet needed generosity I think god and the masses could forgive them for their sins. Can people really believe life is about collecting the biggest pile of shit?
