Buddhists believe the same thing, in a way. I find comfort in my beliefs when they coincide with real old shit. Ancient philosophers or religions, etc. the older the better. Maybe I’M insane 🤷♂️
Oh, that’s interesting. I definitely understand what you mean by finding comfort in those things.
For me it goes both ways. Like yes it is comforting because it feels like yeah maybe there’s something there, but also like damn, we’ve been pondering the same thing for thousands of year and we still don’t know anything. Which I guess can also be seen as comforting depending on how you look at it.
To be fair, I think that at this point in time, we’re all a little insane. It’s a necessary survival skill.
I feel like we do have the answer. We’ve had it for a long time. Basically since the first records, we had it. Which makes me believe we had it before as well. But we always forget it, from our “conscious collective mind”, as in from the mainstream or zeitgeist. And then rediscover it again and again, in different words. But we have the answer, we always had it.
