People in cities and concrete. Driving around in cars exhausting smoke, life passing them by. Dont even know where theyre headed to, in a rush on a road to nowhere. The longer i stay off devices in the morning, the better the day goes. These are amazing things because we can connect with others and come together. But they're dangerous too.
I keep my mind around for point of reference. My ego mind is totally made of every thing I picked up in life. The Hoi Toi sack contains everything from diamonds to dog turds. None of it is real, I imagine myself. The real Bill is empty and invisible in a state of Newtonian physics.
My dad was amazed at how much science advanced in the renaissance and subsequent couple of centuries where communication and travel limited cross pollination of ideas and discovery. Much like todays nerd culture where lone inventors are more likely to come up with an idea than a committee. It’s the quiet that enables new thoughts. We have too many distraction in our societies to concentrate.
Yes, my point exactly. Distraction has become so normal that I know people who can't function without it. It is as if they afraid to hear their own thoughts so they block it with external noise.
