    One of my favorite Bums, Brian (now passed on), was very involved with that system and seemed to love it. You @BigSkyDiamond might enjoy reading what he had to say on the topic.

    For many years I thought 10% economic growth in the USA before 1913, when income taxes were legalized, had everything to do with economic & financial efficiency. But recently I realized a good part of that 10% GDP growth was actually population expansion. So yah its definitely easy to get lost attempting to identify trends and causality in historical financial data. Leading up to the american civil war the north paid 25% of all taxes in the country. The south covered 75% of the tax burden. 25/75 split. That's wholly irrelevant though considering the war was all about racism and slavery.

    I worked with a woman once that wore an 'Order of the Star' badge , I asked her 'Isnt that finished by now ?" " Not with me it isn't ! " Jiddu was rather pop here ( well, in Sydney ) at one stage . he was supposed to come when he was still being touted as world teacher* ..... another Theosophical fiasco ! * reception amphitheater for Krishnamurti , Sydney Harbor ; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Amphitheatre

    It struck me that he was not talking about 'being aware ' but ' being awareness ' .

    I don't think taxes have much to do with productivity except strangle it. But in general I don't know the deeper why's and wherefore's of the war for independence in its non-mythologized version -- something any historical event requires much in-depth study to begin to unravel -- now the North-South civil war is a different matter, I did my homework on that one diligently... That one, indeed, had everything to do with productivity, technological advances, and all that industrial jazz.

    Don't worry that it might not agree with your teachings .... because ... you do realize 'akashic records' is not a Hindu concept ? Its one of those theosophical postulations that are based on Vedantic terms , mostly - ākāśa आकाश - basically ' an ethereal fluid supposed to be pervading the cosmos' , the basis , essence and first element , then air , fire , water , earth . A type of 'aethyr' . IN modern language it could be called 'quintessence ' . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quintessence_(physics) Blavatski introduced the idea by coupling 'akasa' with " "indestructible tablets of the astral light" . Then in 'Esoteric Buddhism' ( Sinnett 1883 ) - but that was citing Olcott's 'A Buddhist Catechism ' (1881) ; " "Buddha taught two things are eternal, viz, 'Akasa' and 'Nirvana': everything has come out of Akasa in obedience to a law of motion inherent in it, and, passes away. No thing ever comes out of nothing." Next Leadbeater had a go in developing the concept and ( even though nothing can come out of it ) decided a clairvoyant could bring information out of it, in 'Clairvoyance ' (1889) he came up with the 'Akashic records' concept claiming that not only could all past 'imprinted ' events be read out of it , including the ( then recently developed ) ideas about the 'history' of Atlantis but now the future could be seen in it as well ! ... up to the 28th century - in 'Man; Whence, How and Wither ' (1913) . Then Alice Bailey had a go at it in her 'The Light of the Soul '- on The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali Book 3 Union Achieved and its Results (1927): Now it gets even better ! " The akashic record is like an immense photographic film, registering all the desires and earth experiences of our planet. Those who perceive it will see pictured thereon: The life experiences of every human being since time began, The reactions to experience of the entire animal kingdom, The aggregation of the thought-forms of a karmic nature (based on desire) of every human unit throughout time. Only a trained occultist can distinguish between actual experience and those astral pictures created by imagination and keen desire.[8] " One wonders what 'trained Occultists ' they had in Theosophy ??? ( As there was no occult training in Theosophy ) . Then Steiner had a dip in using it to support all sorts of things in this 'system' by saying he saw it in those records . Then Cayce developed it further ..... Theosophical ! We had a few of them here too ... they didn't like historical analysis of things and factual observations and got annoyed at me like a lot of others do , for pointing them out . We even had some members offering an 'akashic record cleaning service .... ooops, I mean 'reading service ' . ( not a bad idea ..... my 'records' could do with some cleaning up ... anyone got an akashic rubber ? ) When we gonna get an akasic internet ?
