Gus’ GUS Synchronicity

 Gus’ GUS Synchronicity


The ‘Guaranteed Underwriting Service’ 

In recent months, I’ve realized that what society needs is to have an Economic and Sociological Study done on what an Ecovillage - designed to be as self-sufficient as possible - would look like if it had an aggregate of homesteads that are as ecologically balanced as possible with the knowledge of Water Catchment, Permaculture, Herbalism, Nutritional Optimization, Composting, Recycling, Reduced Use, Naturopathy, and the necessary Social Structures and Professionals to provide services for the Villages’ residents - out of which would come their replacements.

Each homestead would be as self-sufficient as possible, and anything they couldn’t do for themselves would either be done at the Village Center or imported from outside. The main parameters to keep in mind would be a prioritizing of Self-Sufficiency, Ecological Self-Sustainability, and proper Economies of Scale (i.e. no Perversions of Scale, e.g. a regionally sold loaf of bread, or nation-wide sales of cookies, etc. or industry whose waste becomes ecologically polluting). These priority parameters would set the size of the Village in terms of how many homesteads will be a part of each village. Not every village will be the same size. Of course, no village can be completely self-reliant or self-sustaining; however, the goal is to try to be such, as much as possible.

The very nature of the self-sustaining paradigm will make it so that the residents of the homesteads and villages will become professionals, educated as they grow-up, in the skills needed for homestead and eco-village life. Starting as children in the ‘kinder’ part of the ‘gardens’ (a.k.a. kindergarten) everyone’s first job will be Gardener - an ecologically noble job they can do for a few years or a lifetime - providing ‘garden-to-table’ organic vegetables with respect and appreciation from everyone in their village. Gardeners can upgrade to being either Cooks’ helpers, or Herbalists preparing herbs and roots for Tinctures, Infusions, Teas, or dehydrating them for storage to be used at a later date. From there, they can add Aromatherapy to their skills, or up-grade to being Horticulturists, or Naturopaths. The main realization is that there are many jobs and professions that are naturally connected to their village lives and that segue to and from each other, so that individual persons also know that if they try something new it will already seem quite familiar to them and that they could always go back to what they  did before, then segue in a different connected direction skill wise and professionally. That will go a long way to making people feel comfortable without worrying about being socially or professionally dislocated.

Recently I discovered: Guaranteed Underwriting System (GUS) , an automated system for submitting and processing Rural Development Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loans, is a part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program. GUS performs applicants’ credit risk assessment, allowing lenders to make an informed lending decision. GUS utilizes a modified TOTAL scorecard and a GUS Rules Engine determined by USDA to render underwriting recommendations. While it’s only for single family dwellings, I still consider it a synchronicity regarding my homestead village project.

Gus’ 21 Acres Synchronicity

  Gus’ 21 Acres Synchronicity Of more immediate use to my ‘ Ecovillage Econometrics Project ’ is 21 Acres , a remarkable center for Sustainable Agriculture Education. Recall that I achieved Transcendental Enlightenment when I was 21 years old. Food, diet, and fasting were very important; along with empathy for all life that transformed into a Universal Imperative to make life better for all in every way possible. This has driven me to study many subjects, including economics; and being previously familiar with the health and ecological reasons for organic foods and sustainable farming (including Permaculture, Restorative Agriculture, Polyculture, Biodynamic Gardening, etc.) I realized that it would be useful to engage in an ‘Ecovillage Sociological Study and Econometrics’ and establish a subculture that uses best practices from hunter-gather times to the gardening and farming types mentioned above, to best technologies from ancient to present day, best socio-economic and education...

Gus’ Bank Synchronicities

  Gus’ Bank Synchronicities I’m a musician who prefers to tune his instruments to Middle A = 432 Hz (i.e. the International Standard before WWII; that is also a number in Sacred Geometry). Sometime around 2017, I opened an account at Sound Credit Union partly because its name has the word ‘sound’ in it. When they gave me a Debit Card, I noticed the synchronicity that the card they gave me had 432 in the card number, and more surprisingly the randomly chosen security code number for my card was also 432. During 2018 I started thinking about investing in Silver, so I went to Sound Credit Union and rented a safe deposit box (to put the silver I’d be buying into), the number chosen randomly from those available (because it’s easier than repeatedly looking to see if the number you’re choosing has already been taken) turned out to be number 47, that’s the atomic number of Silver. Safety Deposit Box Synchronicity: 47 is the atomic number of Silver

Gus’ $20 bill Synchronicities

  Gus’ $20 bill Synchronicities Gus was 20 years old when he started what would turn out to be his Transcendental Journey. He had two main questions he was trying to get answers to - 1. Why is there so much conflict in Society , and 2. How much emotional and behavioral ‘baggage’ was he carrying with him in his mind and soul that was causing him to engage in, and perhaps attracted things and events that I didn’t really want. Somehow, he knew how to create a synthesis of Buddhism, Hinduism, and Taoism Practices into what became his original method for achieving Universal Enlightenment. The U.S. $ 20 Bill portrays President Andrew Jackson. He is known for several things. Unfortunately, one of them is his suppression and treatment of Native Americans, at that time called “ Indians ”. Although this is an incorrect naming of Native Americans, Hinduism is from India - where two of the elements of Gus’ Transcendental Enlightenment Practice originated. As I’ve stated before, his famil...
