Technology is consuming us, feeding on us we are not consuming it. Our cell phones, our computers, our TVs, AI are all spiritually feeding on us. We are literally being consumed as we spend endless amounts of our precious lives tied to technology. The media is feeding on us, growing fatter and fatter on our fear, worry, stress, and tension and its appetite is never satisfied. It wants more of our attention, more of our brain power, more of our energy to sustain it. Just think if we all stopped using our phones (impossible I know), our computers, stopped watching TV, the news, purposeless shows, they would cease to exist. Instead they are draining us of our energy, our attention spans, creating more fear and an endless loop of dependency. Every time you use your phone, remember you are feeding it.
How do we stop? You need to ask yourself why you turn to technology for comfort, endless stimulation and distraction and find – fight – your way out. It grows stronger as we grow weaker.
The Temple of Why was founded on asking the “Sacred Why”. It is a question that pertains to all aspects of our lives. In order to stop feeding the monster of technology our energy in exchange for fear, frenzy, stress, worry we have to rediscover our unique purpose. It is still with us, it will always be with us waiting for us to ask the Sacred Why we are here and find it again. Go to a fire, a bonfire, hearth fire, the ocean, a mountain top view and ask “why”, softly, quietly with no expectation of a response and when you aren’t trying to hear a response, one will come.
