Like bitcoin, spiritual growth is non-linear and volatile. consciousness expands and contracts back into ego. each contraction back into ego often feels increasingly more painful; as you get closer to the kingdom of heaven, the lions at the gates get fearcer and fearcer. the fall back into ego, sin, darkness becomes more unbearable.
Suffering is grace. what is karma? karma is habit, patterns of thought and behavior that have been developed and reinforced so strongly over time that they become automatic and unconscious. Burning up this karma takes a hot fire, lots of time + suffering.
suffering is inherent to every authentic awakening; there is no technique of the mind to bypass suffering and awaken because mind itself, and identity with it, is the very problem. The snake sheds its skin at the rate it sheds its skin, the ego dissolves at the rate it dissolves. The ego can't wake itself up because waking up means the death of the ego.
Love your suffering because it is killing the sufferer. We all have bad days, don't believe the guilt or the mind telling you to do more. Only from the perspective of the sufferer is there a high and a low, and only from the perspective of fiat idoes bitcoin "go up" or "go down." 1 bitcoin is always 1 bitcoin no matter the fiat price, consciousness is always witnessing the ego at its highs and its lows. From the perspective of a depraved and delusional system (ego + fiat), everything is chaos; from a higher perspective, nothing has changed.
Naturally it takes time and suffering to stop getting involved with ego's ups and downs and become a loving observer of your own life and suffering. In the same way, it takes time and suffering to stop measuring bitcoin from a control system (love to Jeff Booth (nprofile…w2ua) ). There is a beautiful creative destruction happening in the microcasm of the human psyche and the macrocasm of human society.
What a privelege to awaken together and be alive at this time. Much love and power to who ever is reading this. We can do this
