"A time is coming when we will shift from a profit-taking economy to a gift economy, from an economy of 'how I can take the most?' to 'how can I best give of my gifts?'"

- Charles Eisenstein

The transformation of money mirrors a shift in our own psychology, and the way we relate to the world. We can indeed live in Sacred Economy today, seeding cultural rebirth through our words and actions.

Charles will touch on subjects such as:

• How the financial system is falling apart, and what might come afterwards
• How what's happening now is part of a larger process
• How the transition will affect our connection to ourselves, other beings and the planet
• What kind of money system will bring our self-interest and the interest of all into alignment
• How can we better fulfill our life's purpose
• What constitutes true wealth 
• What love has to do with it

Please bring a brown bag lunch.  We will be providing a variety of snacks and hot and cold beverages to supplement.

Cost: Self determined. $10 reserves your space, refundable at event upon request.

Location: Downtown Cotati, directions will be sent to registrants
