"According to the rules of our dysfunctional society, you are inadequate unless you’ve become a productive gear-turner for capitalism and obtained enough wealth to consume products at large volume. ... Your life is nothing but a story of academic goals to career goals to relationship goals to family goals, purchasing larger and larger chunks of real estate along the way until you catch some disease and die.
...
When you stop listening to the babbling mental monologue and the labeling, dividing mind which thinks it knows what everything is, you start seeing everything for the first time. Each moment of this incarnation is fascinating and awe-inspiring when you learn to see it with fresh eyes, whether you’re climbing Mount Everest or sitting at home drinking coffee."
