Although i see billionaires in control of our country today, I find that I feel much more blessed then they are, because I have the good fortune of great gurus in my life who have shown me the importance of being around places where I could meditate for hours with others and places where nature was so wonderful that it helped me calm my body and mind so that I had meaningful meditations and at times exhilarating moments. And even more important I have had the opportunity to be around Masters and saintly people all my life.
Maybe the huge billionaires fo not feel so much in control. Maybe their goals are so immense and unaffordable to make them unhappy. I remember an interview with Mr. Musk and Lex Friedman. Mr. Musk at one point said: "You don't want to be in my mind", referring to the constant turmoil of ideas clashing in his mind. This is a man who has no mental peace, I thought. He could never calm his mind and meditate, in the state he is now.
He's extremely rich, he's the apotheosis of wealth, but we apparently have a stash of spiritual riches and calmness he cannot think about.
Wow that brought tears to my eyes and even a little compassion for Elon Musk. Thanks for the interview information and insights here. 🙏
