“The goal should not be to make money or acquire things, but to achieve the consciousness through which the substance will flow forth when and as you need it.”
~ Eric Butterworth from Spiritual Economics
Are you committed to discovering who you are and how you can give yourself most fully to the world? AND how you can consciously circulate wealth in the world as you give your gifts, support others, and support yourself?
Spiritual Economics and The Science of Getting Rich were two of the most influential “wealth/abundance” books I read during a critical phase in my life in which I was really starting to bring my life into integrity around money. If you’re like me, I have zero doubt you’ll also find them transformative.
Since my initial read, I’ve picked this book up at least half a dozen times and have been blown away by the love Butterworth exudes in his words. As a Unitarian minister, he eloquently, compassionately, brilliantly and forcefully establishes his principles of economics. So, without further adieu, let’s jump in with his definition of Prosperity and then dance through the roots of other words associated with money while we explore the heart of spiritual economics!
