Food of the Gods

I'm sick of pretending like I'm stupid. I'm sick of holding back. I'm not stupid. I should not need to hold back.

So many of my friends suffer but it's important to point out that ending suffering is not the goal right now. Suffering is the shadow caused by the self blocking the light of the world. Basically. If we do not have sufficient motivation to bring our culture into harmony with the world, ending suffering might very well end culture. Right now we have two major problems in this world.

1) pollutants 2) internal/external strife.

This can easily be expressed by the fact that we're using substantially more resources and creating more pollution than this planet can stand (for long). Also, we suffer due to our culture's disharmony with the world. We make up rules to confine the self because we fear the self. We have top-down authoritarian government because we stifle sovereignty (self government) because we don't trust our peers because we fear the self ...





We must first secure our future and our present before we can adequately explore the other states of mind. Just as we must first learn how to walk before we run in the Olympics. We must first learn how to walk the earth before we explore Olympus.
