I wanted to learn the runes but never got around to it. Used to meditate a lot, shikantaza Zen style. Would meditate until my knees howled. Ha! But I got away from it. Meditation will mellow you out. But hell I'm mellow enough, now. Maybe too mellow.

It is the seeking, in itself, which creates the suffering. It creates a divisiveness in the psyche, an unease, a disturbance. It is the "want", the "desire" which results in suffering. Wanting to be happy, you are unhappy. If there is no want, all is well.

I think some are snake oil salespeople & others are just deluded people wanting it so bad they are deceiving themselves (and others). Yes, religion is based on fear. Capture the ppl's fear ("ur going to hell") & you can rule over them & fleece them, too.

If you keep people seeking & wanting, you can keep profiting off of them. You never want to actually cure their ailment. There goes the goose that laid the golden egg, so to speak.

The market place of spirituality is overloaded. It's all a scam.

I see a lot of consumers in stores that look to me like they are possessed by spirits or demons or whatever you wanna call it. They look crazed.

Here in the States, there have been people trampled to death trying to get into stores on Black Friday. And, fighting over consumer products is commonplace.

I'm not a good consumer. I hardly buy anything unless I really need it. I don't have TV. Havent had it for over a decade. I gave almost all of my furniture away to the locals. I'm kind of camping out, the way I live. Ha!
