I think Vijay is sharing some really important insights that are lost on many in this era of ubiquitous advertising, subscription services, and increasing groupthink: be more buy less, especially if you need to conserve spending and/or save money
Many of us don’t need nearly as much as we think we do. It takes a bit of growth & calming down tho, which is hard to do with all the noise
Media hypes us on the “cost of living crisis” and while I agree basic needs price goes up which sucks, but half the problem is really a “cost of confirming crisis”. That is, wanting to live in a very specific and often sub-optimal way just to be at least “on par” with everyone else.
I see someone who values spiritual growth and isn’t ashamed of presenting that to the world. I don’t see someone who thinks of themselves as a messiah. They appear to be someone I’d enjoy having a chat with. You seem quite anger prone right now

And I love “cost of conforming”! Unfortunately, it isn’t easy figuring out that status/material crap doesn’t equal self-esteem in this world
For fucks sake look at their profile banner, second coming of jesus type shit. What a wanker.

@the_q Oh don’t get me started flexing on how I sleep on the floor and no longer own a car
Oh yeah? Well I don’t even have a floor
