The entire premise of Organic Wealth Studies is built around the very true idea that certain natural understandings are woven into the the core fabric of the universe. Some might call these laws of nature. But the thing about these organic laws of nature is this: You can agree with them or disagree with them, but you cannot change them.

It is when we come into contact with these organic understandings and harmonize with them in what we do and the how we approach life that certain predictable results can always be expected to occur. The same is true if we are ignorant of them or simply choose to ignore them. Ignoring them also holds predictable outcomes and they are not usually the good moments in life.

The ancients had a word for the explanation of these things. They called it wisdom. They learned wisdom from observing the way things worked in creation over a long period of time. Wisdom is simply the understanding of how things happen in a cause and effect response at the most basic and organic level. There are mysteries to the way things work and there is a way to work in harmony with them as well.

A lot of times the ancients learned by trial and error. Often they wrote or memorized these things and passed them on to newer generations. It is because of wisdom that children were taught to respect the elders - because the elder knew the mysteries. The elders had watched life as it unfolded around them and others, experiencing sometimes joyful and sometimes painful events that taught them the organic nature of how things in the world actually work.

And so through a lot of personal trial and error, observation, learning and listening, joy and tears, failures and successes, I've come to a point of realizing what the ancients observed about organic finance is nothing short of brilliant. One of these wise elders wrote a book he titled "Ecclesiastes." The wise man had an incredible insight into the constant cycle taking place throughout all creation and all history. In the book he wrote thefollowing words;

"Vanity of vanities, said the Preacher, vanity of vanities. Everything is vanity. What profit does a man have in all his labor he performs under the blistering sun? One generation passes away and another one comes right in to take its place, but the earth continues on forever.

The sun rises and sets, then it hastens back to the place it rose the day before. The wind goes south and finds its way back to the north again, whirling about continually and always returns according to his predesigned circuits. All the rivers run into the sea, and yet the sea is never full because the place from where the rivers came they return back again.

All things are at work and man cannot even begin to understand it. Our eyes will never get their fill of seeing and our ears will never get their fill of hearing. The thing that has been in the past is the same thing that is coming down the road again, and what has been done is what is going to be done, and there is never really any new thing taking place under the sun.

Is there really anything of which it might be said, 'See, this is new! This has never taken place before!' Not really, though the shape of things may change, what is has already been of old time far predating the memories of any mere man. No, there isn't a single memory in any of us of those past things and neither will there be any remembrance of things that are coming now today or of those that will come after that." (Ecclesiastes 1)

What is the Prophet saying? He saw that everything in the cosmos is moving forever in one vast repeating cycle and at some point it all comes back to the mean - the point of origin and a point of normalization to what is organically correct. The code written into the DNA of everything causes it all to be so. Although things may move and seemingly defy the code temporarily, the invisible code silently yet knowingly rules and all will come back eventually to the point of genesis, the point of the organic norm.

The Prophet saw that written into this DNA, this code of the universe, is a self correcting, self balancing dynamic and it is always at work, secretly, silently and almost imperceptibly. There is an intricate and beautiful dance that has been woven into the fabric of everything that is. And although nature is quiet and patient, upsetting the balance of things in time brings into motion the self correcting force of it. Correction must come. Correction will come. All things will cycle back again to the point of balance.

Sure, you can you scoff at the organic wisdom if you like. Any of us can. It's our choice and freedom to do so. Wisdom doesn't outrightly demand - it just invites. But ignore it long enough and the wheels of balance imperceptively begin to move. Events slowly begin to build and compound one upon the other until finally we face unstoppable events on the scale of maybe a Hurricane Katrina for example. Defy wisdom in regard to life and money and correction will come by default. And if you've noticed, when nature corrects no regard is given to who is in the way or what their PHD proclaims.

This is true in nature and also in the world of economics. There is an organic wisdom written into the code of economics and commerce. Certain behaviors bring certain results and the results can be either beneficial or detrimental depending on which side of the paradigm of wisdom you find yourself on.

The quest, should you care to join in, has to do with the ideas of Organic Wealth. It is a discovery process designed to understand the ways of wealth and abundance written into the code of the universe. It is a quest to harmonize with the wisdom of the ancients and practice that wisdom for the benefit of all.
