Humans have this need to be deep, and this huge wave of people dealing with anxiety and mental health issues is all because of materialism and the superficiality that’s so present in society today. Social media also plays a part, making people feel useless and incapable of living fully. The book Kybalion connects us with real alchemy, with ancient traditions linked to nature. It’s the mysteries of life and curiosity about the nature of things that make us love life.
Aristotle talks about how philosophy awakens in us because of that feeling of exhaustion, when we realize everything around us is repetitive and unreal.
That’s when we see reality isn’t outside it’s inside the deep things are what feed the soul.
Alchemy got corrupted once its original principles and goals started getting twisted over time. The pursuit of spiritual and philosophical knowledge was replaced by a more practical, profit driven view, seen through a materialistic and greedy lens, focused on turning lead into gold for quick riches.
Don’t let your bad choices guide you choose a path of values, principles, and wisdom.
