Thank you! You can take almost any idea, even one that is sloppily stated or even misstated and find the value in it.
I didn't speak well because what I meant in the start of what you quoted, was that we truly raise our consciousness WITHOUT substances. Substances are great for physical pain or temporary sleeping aid, but like wacky tobacky (grin) which I indulged in more than my share of, in the seventies....we are actually lowering our consciousness with it.
I raise my consciousness, or no....I witness it and experience it being raised when I practice silent stillness...that I call "meditation." Even natural substances which have a medicinal value, are indeed tools of self-hypnosis.
Everything you wrote about the "powers that be" I do totally see, discern and agree with you about.
You darn sure are a better writer than me. I do misspeak at times.
I am looking forward to reading you each time I get the chance.
