:🌍 What are we leaving behind?
“Because of their belief that there is no life beyond this one, people today have not developed a long-term vision; as a result, there is nothing to stop them from plundering the planet for their own immediate ends and living in a selfish way that could prove fatal for the future.”
— Sogyal Rinpoche, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, pp. 31–32
This line hit me.
We live as if only the now matters. The earth is plundered, the body is drained, death is ignored. All in the name of immediacy.
But without long-term vision, there is no future.
And without spiritual connection, there's only emptiness and consumption.
That’s why I’m drawn to practicing death in life, to learn how to let go, to see beyond through meditation.
And it’s also why I value #Bitcoinnot not as some magic solution, but as a symbol of personal responsibility in the middle of the storm. It forces you to think in terms of 10, 20, 100 years.
If we don’t wake up, we’re heading straight into the abyss.
And it won’t be someone else’s fault.
