Depends on what you want out of life.

There's no reason why you couldn't raise your consciousness and also be successful in business. There are many healthy forms of business.

Don't forget that there are ways of making millions of dollars while also doing good for the world.

You could sit down, write a book, and make a million dollars and this does not contradict being highly conscious.

Basically I want to help people that have gone through taking so much LSD or psilocybin they have a really really bad trip, and I want to help them reframe the experience so they can get the most out of their trip. People don't know what's happening to them when it's happening to them, they just freak the f out and hold on for dear life.

Thank you. I don't know why people believe money is evil or other conformist cliches like these, and I don't conflate spirituality with neglecting survival. I just don't want to trip in the dark while life passes me by. I guess I don't have to be trapped in the rat race with no clarity. 

When tripping, I step outside the survival game, but I still want to play. It's just that I don't take it so seriously because it's hollow, but I see everyone else scrambling, tooth n claw.

If you look at the past of most human history we are living in total luxury. Even having a roof over your head, AC, hot showers, a cushy job- it’s unbelievable to the shit our ancestors had to put up with. Is it unfair? Yeah, but at least you aren’t some slave with no rights living under some dictator psycho or king. There’s always room for improvement but we’ve also got it pretty good in terms of human history

I hear you. I get that. I see how lucky and fortunate to even be alive in the 21st century alone is and a privilege to sit back and moan about ones situation. 

I'm emphasizing the starkness, absurdity and reality of power, resources and survival of the few among the many. I'm zooming out and seeing the absurdity of it all. It can be shocking

For sure. It’s quite disgusting how greedy people can get, the amount of lives they will ruin for their own gain or just a bigger yacht.

I don't think there's any qualitative difference between how you feel now and how they felt bad many years ago. You can't feel bad beyond a threshold. And I think people are in a worser state now than it was before. 

Think about it like this, hunter gatherers didn't need any form of technology to feel good or live a good life. And there's still indigenous populations who live with the same values. This shows living a good life has nothing to do with development or materialism, more than we make it.
