Money is just an abstraction

It’s a coordination tool. That’s why some aspects of living get easier with more money — you’ve greased the wheels of coordination

But if you let the abstraction run amok, then you sacrifice reality or life

This is also why art and money feel at odds. Art tries to reflect life, money looks past it

How about money as an abstraction of energy? To coordinate, you expend energy.

Then, Art, is also an abstraction of energy. To create art, you must channel that energy.

So perhaps it's always just been energy, Prakriti.
