Thanks for the interesting conversations here. It's difficult to ignore the 'Imagine' song. I see it as we don't need to "imagine no possessions," because possession is imaginary. I don't truly own my cat or my car. I look after them. Well, it seems like the cat owns me sometimes....
But it's true that currently in this stage of human evolution we have a system of ownership and laws and agreements that defend that. That needs to be respected of course, if we are to avoid war and chaos right now.
But the song looks to a future where the world changes, and for me that is the path for humanity. I feel the Age of Aquarius is the start of this letting go of limits, leading to more openness, a way of oneness, sharing and being at peace with all as one.
