Whatever Forever

Meditation is amazing for you. Yoga is excellent. Healthy eating and alternative medical practices can do wonderful things.

But I am so. damn. tired. of all the antivaxxer and anti-medication sentimentality. 

It is difficult enough for the average person to find the discipline and focus to practice meditation daily. You expect that from a manic depressive individual? 

Meditation wasn’t invented as a cure-all. It is the practice undertaken by a living organism to awaken from the illusion of separation to rediscover themselves as the Eternal. 

Obviously there are many side benefits. Medically speaking, it does excellent things for your blood pressure, it helps lower cholesterol, it lowers stress and thus stress-based illnesses, it decreases systemic inflammation and those associated illnesses, and it helps to improve/stabilize mood* (*but it is not a dependable treatment for certain mental illnesses).

The illusion of this world is a complex thing and this body, being part of this illusion, is similarly complex. Don’t be fooled by oversimplifications. 

The only thing that is simple is the reality of your boundless Being, which has nothing to do with this body or world.
