My one true wish is to break from the chains of the goods this material reality has to offer. Money, otherwise wealth, approval, popularity... impressions, experiences, sights... love, contribution to this world...

Paradox of enriching oneself spiritually is that agnosticism/nihilism to (this) reality won’t get anyone far. Interacting with material reality IS a way to enrich oneself spiritually, to manifest as a person and not just a drop in the eternal stream of universal energy. But material reality’s values are cruel and so close to getting a person tangled in them.

It is all about keeping the fire but not letting it burn you alive, is it?

#personal #/vent #i am caught between nihilism and 'aiming to transcend doesn't mean you can hurt people who aren't ready for this mindset yet'#we are trapped. but we can jiggle.#we are made human by our wishes. but our desires is what causes suffering.#i am still waiting for a movie to resonate with me more than matrix tbh #it has been criticized in every way possible so far yet it is still the only movie that truly understands me #dissociative human beings bible :pensive:#ok unironically tho buddha was BASED except buddhaism is too agnostic for me #material world has a unique level of craftmanship and just because it is tempting doesn't mean it is evil and we can't enjoy it #just not let it burn you and make your life serving for material world's values and you are good
