God, Money and Consciousness

We have been in dialogue for a long time. The starting point for this dialogue was a conference and debate in Nuremberg two years ago. Sitting face to face, we had to address pressing issues such as: Can values ​​still be valid in economics? How many entrepreneurs can a monk have? How much consideration for others can an entrepreneur allow himself? What does money and profit mean to us? Since then, we meet regularly to discuss new topics. Over time, this has given rise to an interesting and enriching relationship, based on mutual respect and the desire to understand each other. We are fully aware that the tasks and goals of our organizations are radically different. But as human beings and authors of books, there is more that unites us than divides us. We both want to protect the environment, improve society and have a long-term impact on reality, within our "company" and beyond. As entrepreneurs, we must learn to manage them without harming people or nature. As spiritual beings, we seek to find ourselves and strengthen community ties, without neglecting the good administration of our institutions.
