\"Gradido is the keystone, the top stone that holds the stone arch together and distributes the forces.\"<\/em>
-\u00a0<\/em> Jean-Pierre Rickli<\/i><\/p>

Dear Reader,<\/p>

In the many years of my various activities - as an engineer, supervisor, therapist, geomancer, trainer and, last but not least, as a father - I have come to realize that most of the systems in our society are inherently logical. geomancer, trainer and not least as a father - I have come to realize that most systems in our society have an inherent logic that leads to undesirable developments.<\/p>

Due to the misguided developments, we lost sight of our true goals and followed secondary goals that led us astray.<\/p>

At the end of the cul-de-sac<\/h3>

These misleading secondary goals have given rise to organizations and structures that we now take for granted. Nevertheless, today we are increasingly seeing that we have reached the end of a dead end.<\/p>

Time and again, solutions that corresponded to common sense or natural laws were rejected. The reason given was that they would contradict the 'logic of money'. Very often, this 'logic of money' was presented as a law of nature - a surprise for a person from a scientific background.<\/p>

The monetary system - a human construct<\/h3>

Of course, I am aware that money plays an important role as an energy store. Thanks to it, consumption can be decoupled from production. The problem is therefore not money itself, but the monetary system, which is by no means natural, but a human construct.<\/p>

These were my thoughts when I listened to a presentation by Bernd about a new financial system called Gradido in Egerkingen, Switzerland, in the fall of 2016.<\/p>

Gradido, the keystone that holds everything together<\/h3>

I immediately realized: this is the right thing! Gradido is the keystone, the top stone that holds the stone arch together and distributes the forces.<\/strong><\/p>

It also became clear to me where I wanted to focus my activities in the future:<\/p>

  1. To help build the stone arches in my areas of energy, education, health and nutrition.\u00a0<\/li>
  2. To support the construction of Gradido - the keystone.<\/li><\/ol>

    .<\/p>

    Every support and assistance helps to achieve this goal.<\/p>

    In gratitude for this generous gift to humanity!<\/p>

    Kind regards<\/p>
